Synchronize Your Lippert-Schwintek Slide Room Motors -- My RV Works

My RV Works, Inc., RV Technician, Darren Koepp, takes a little time out of a Lippert-Schwintek Slide Room replacement job to give a quick demonstration on how you can synchronize the motors in your RV's slide room. Running your slide room motors when they're out of sync for an extended period of time can lead to costly repairs.

Thank you, thank you, thank you! This video saved me! We purchased a lightly used Imagine from a local dealership, our first, and before we really had a chance to decorate or even get bed sheets on, our slide got all out of sync. I had visions of having to get a repair person out to fix it, but I stumbled across this video, walked through the steps that you laid out and I'm FINE! Thanks again for the peace of mind!

[@jaclynvitelli6609]

The same thing just happened to my husband and I!! LIFE (and money) SAVER

[@ProfFarns]

Huge valvue as always. LOVE it when your videos are available on my searches. Keep up the good work!

[@dustcole9]

This video just saved me hours of troubleshooting. Thanks!

[@rene8447]

[@diverm2371]

Miss these videos keep more coming like this. Thanks

[@MyRVWorks]

You got it!

[@HANDYMANDAN51]

Great video, you make it look simple

[@bobanddangsjourney]

Thanks for this, I really appreciate all. the schwintek videos you have done. We have one, and I'm very nervous - but I know where to come when/if I have a problem! I just had a scare but it turned out to be crappy crimps on the power feeds into the controller. That was a super easy fix thankfully..

[@chopchoppancake86]

There's always value in your videos. Thankyou for sharing !

[@MyRVWorks]

I appreciate that!

[@mikeweis5925]

A great explanation. Thank you.

[@johnhaithcock1919]

Well done. I had a T-shirt get caught in the gearing and it was off by a couple of inches. All good now

[@dsbruening]

I love videos like this! Thanks Darrin!

[@MyRVWorks]

Glad you like them!

[@markgilley4176]

Thank You

[@user-mt3jq7vk5v]

Good lesson for all. I learned it in 2021 with my new motorhome. Horrible system unless I want to upgrade.

[@JoeSummersOK]

Thanks!

[@MyRVWorks]

Thank you so much!

[@v908]

If I let the motors bring my slide-out all the way in, they exert too much pressure and tear off the decorative trim around the slide-out. How can you synchronize (coming in) without over-stressing the border/trim?

[@LeonRushing]

Hey Darin I have tried the synchronization several time and my swintech still stops , during the synchronization no change is noticed in the motor stoppage

[@southernmudaholic2409]

What do I do if the bottom does not close as much as the top does. I have more gap at the bottom than the top. Also would that make it leak water while driving? It does not leak while sitting steal rolled in or out just while driving roles in.

[@user-ki9wg9op6h]

Does this work on a LCI slimrack system?

[@dgladyz3976]

When the motors are out of sync will it not completely seal on one side when retracted? Because mine is about 1 inch less closed on one side then the other when fully retracted.

[@campnut6076]

Is it acceptable to sleep on a retracted bed slide with Schwintek system , such as a quick overnight stop at Cracker Barrell or similar?

[@raystanton238]

I've done that several times, no issues.

[@destinylengele9597]

My slide that is in the bedroom of a 2002 Monaco Windsor 42 ft Diesel Pusher does not want to come in when you press the button but when u push on the slide (takes to adults) it goes on while the button is pushed after it starts to go in on its own we stop pushing the slide and let it go in the rest of the way and if we push button to let it go out it does just fine help me myrvworks,Inc

[@cletusphaight306]

I'm having the same problem on my 2016 LTV Unity, Murphy Bed. I would like a response! Please !

[@dustcole9]

Gear or rail is bound up. Clean the tracks, check for debris, and then lubricate.

[@jackraintree4351]

When closed the bottom on both sides is out about 2 inches

[@MyRVWorks]

That might be an indication that the bottom spur gears have jumped. Not really an easy fix. We've got several videos on this system being repaired, if you watch a few of those you'll see what all is involved to realign the tracks, you'll need to pull the H-column off of each side, one side at a time only.

[@garvdarb]

22MLE Grand Design! All I here is a loud whirring noise. NO WAY I can differentiate between motors. And the Control panel is 12 ft away from the other end of slide and Motor

[@monk4786]

Garbage system

[@Itsa_Mea]

Better than cables anyday.

[@user-mt3jq7vk5v]

Yep they are I bought my motorhome in 2021 with two slides with that system. I keep them synced going out and in and keep the tracks clean and use a dry silicone lube on the top of the motor wheel and track it runs in. Sure enough s bullshit set up but better than the cable setup.
