I have a 2006/7 Georgie Boy Pursuit 35’ Class A MH on a FORD Chassis.
Model Number PR SE 3500DS F Serial Number 1TCA0118571802552 manufacture date 6/15/06.
I have 2 slide-outs and am having difficulties with the slides. I was told by the Georgie Boy service department that the slides were a QDS system made by RBW Industries / Al-Ko of Elkhardt, IN.
Bedroom slide operates very erratically, ie. it starts and stops intermittently and frequently during the opening mode it will stop entirely. When I then retract it slightly it will continue to open. Also during the opening mode it slows down as though the motor is unable to handle the load. (I was unable to manually open the slide while depressing the ‘release’ button). I have also removed the individual rollers and they all appear to be operating quite smoothly. My question is whether the motor is ‘dying’ and needs replacing or is the problem elsewhere?
Front slide tends to snap the sheer pin very easily and the pin hole in the cross tube is becoming somewhat ‘sloppy’ already. I have regularly lubricated the slide gear and track with a slide track lubricant obtained from the dealer. My question is why is the sheer pin snapping so frequently, and should I be replacing it with a stronger bolt?
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Jake
