The Dinette/ Couch slide on our 37c would not work properly last night. WE had retracted slide to move to another area where we were staying. When we tried to open the slide it started to move and then made snapping sounds as it moved then the slide stopped. Tried to move it back in and it moved alittle making same noise then stopped. The slide wasnt fully in so I crawled under coach with a light to see if I could see any issues.I then had DW try and get slide to move after a couple toggles of switch the slide started to move in and I told her to keep going.I could see the shaft turning and the it would make a snapping noise and move the slide in.It was given a rockin motion at every sound I am thinking the drive gears in the gearbox on motor have an issue.Probably a broken tooth I cant see the numbers on the Power gear Motor that is having issues but did find the number 523900 on the kitchen slide out motor across from it and since it looks the same and has a black boot I would assume they used the same motor but I am going to try and clean the over spray off that motor this afternoon and verify the number.My question is can you get just a new gearbox or will I have to replace the whole motor assembly.The motor is in the middle and has a double shaft and seems simple to replace.
