Exceptional video. Very helpful explanation. I disagree on one comment though that being you said it was Alpine specific. It is also identical to my Grand Design and I’m pretty sure many other brands. Wish I could have found this video earlier. This is so much easier to understand than the series from Lippert. So far I have been unable to adjust rear to front adjustment with me and my wife pushing on it. I’ve considered making a T out of 4x4’s and slightly jacking with a floor jack to move the slide out forward. Any suggestions on this?

@@krstoner53 if you are unable to get the slide to move forward .. if it is fully extended then retract it about 1/2 way and try again.. this puts more of the weight of the slide inward on the wear bar and should give you some leverage to slide forward to center the slide side to side

Maybe you can answer a question for me: if my slide is out but is not flush against my interior wall you adjust the two nuts on the drive - correct. But what if my issue is on the slave side? The drive side is nice and flush on my interior wall, but the slave side has a gap on the lower portion of the seal.

If the hydraulic slides don’t move AND the hydraulic pump motor is running then most likely the Hydac cartridge valve that MUST OPEN is not electrically opening ..inside the hydraulic compartment look for 3 Hydac valves.. one is for ALL hydraulic slides and the other two are for the mid and rear leveling legs Check if there is 12 vdc to the Hydac valve for the slides when a helper operated the slides.. if no 12 vdc then must fix wiring issue.. if you HAVE 12 vdc then either the slip on electric coil on that Hydac valve has failed or the Hydac valve is stuck closed or has junk on the orifices inside the valve

Thanks for the video(s). Your information helped me better understand the hydraulics on my Alpine. I am having an issue with the front landing gear dropping while hooked to the truck. The hydrac valves checked out ok so it seems I have an internal leak in the piston(s) allowing pressure to extend the jacks after retracting them.
