I have a 2006 Zinger ZT300BH and the slide will go out but will not come back in. Could this be a fuse issue or a slide motor issue? Thanks.

Iwould think if it were a fuse issue it wouldn't go out or back in. If a fuse is blown, it cuts the electric flow all together. Sounds more like a motor issue or possibly a switch issue.

If you are able to manually retract the slide then it's not a mechanism problem and if the motor will drive the slide out then motor should be ok.

This does sound more like a switch issue as opposed to a motor problem. Since it's the easiest to do, Isuggest that you pull the switch out and make sure that it is working ok and the connections are ok. It's possible that one of the terminal connections went open. If you don't feel that the switch is ok, buy a new one.The switch may be a bit pricey but it's intended to handle up to 50 amps so that's why the cost. If anewswitchdoesn't sort out the problem then it's time to check the wiring to themotor toensure that it's ok. If you wiring is exposed to the elements then it's highly likely that you have a corroded connection. That's what I'd look for first.
