What's wrong
THE SWITCH WHICH OPENS THE SLIDE-OUT ROOM MAY HAVE BEEN INSTALLED INCORRECTLY OR DAMAGED DURING SHIPPING. ALSO, MOISTURE CAN INTRUDE INTO THE CONTROL MODULE. ANY ONE OF THESE CONDITIONS CAN CAUSE THE SLIDE OUT ROOM TO OPEN WHEN THE SWITCH IS OFF.
The risk
IF THE SLIDE-OUT ROOM OPENS WHILE THE VEHICLE IS INMOTION, IT CAN RESULT IN A VEHICLE ACCIDENT.
The fix
INSPECT THE SLIDE-OUT SWITCH AND THE CONTROL MODULE. DAMAGED SWITCHES WILL BE REPAIRED, AND THE CONTROL MODULE WILL BE REPLACED OR FITTED WITH A PROTECTIVE COVER, AS NECESSARY.
SYSTEM: EQUIPMENT: ELECTRICAL SWITCH.VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: FIFTH WHEEL TRAILERS AND TRAVEL TRAILERS EQUIPPED WITHSLIDE-OUT ROOMS.
