Relocate Slide control Switch?

[Dan Erikson]

In our 388FKL when closing all 4 slides, you get trapped in the hallway between dinette slide out and the bed at the back. Anyone know how they wire the 2024's? Thinking about removing the switch and relocating to the back door area so I no longer need to crawl across the bed on my way out of the unit. Do these have - & + power wires and -&+ motor leads and do all the switching right at the switch or do they have forward and reversing contactors and control wiring from the switch. Ran out of time to pull the panel last weekend to inspect.

There are no wiring diagrams for the campers. Depends on who installed the wiring at the factory and they don't keep a record of this.

Do what I did. I have opposing slides and when both are close you can’t access the bedroom or bathroom. We were in a bad storm with 60mph winds and couldn’t go to bed and close the slide. And the wind was literally pushing in the top of the slide and it was slamming back. We had to sit in the dinette area until 3:30 AM until the winds died down because we were afraid it was going to damage the slide but if we could’ve gone to bed and closed the slide; all would’ve been a lot less stressful. So, I started looking into it and found RV intelligence. They make controls that you wire in between the main wiring and your switch. Then you can control the slide with your phone.
