Inside the street side basement up to the left is the control panel for the slides, might try unplugging it for a count of 10 & plug it back in, that's worked on the jacks.

Danny that's the controller for the Electric slides.

Steve, can you hear the Pump running? Have they been working right along, or has it taken a few hits on the switch for them to work in the past?

We found the problem .... A wire was disconnected off of the solenoid. In the front compartment of the fifth wheel battery side ... Solved the slide problem and also level up system ( which we weren't even aware was a problem until after I posted ) thanks for replies much appreciated ��

Loose connections and poor crimps seem to be quite high on the problem list.
Glad you found you problem and that it was that easy, ours involved having the hydraulic cylinder replaced on the living room slide.
