Troubleshooting

Error Codes

During operation when an error occurs, the board will use the LEDs to indicate where the problem exists. 

The green LED will blink once for Motor 1, and two times for Motor 2.  The red LED will blink from two to 

nine times, depending on the error code. The error codes are as follows: 

Manual Override

In the event of any error code, the system can be manually overridden electronically using these steps:

1. 

Locate the controller.

2. 

Press the “mode button” six times quickly, press a seventh time and hold for approximately five 

seconds. 

3. 

The red and green LED lights will begin to flash indicating the system is in override mode.

4. 

Using the wall switch, press and hold the IN button until the room comes completely in.

NoTe: 

The "8" error code is the most common.  This can signify one of these issues:

• Pinched or broken wiring in the system harness or motor pigtail.

• Disconnected or faulty motor. 

Checking Fuses

Check the 12 volt fuse box for blown fuses, and replace any if necessary.  If the fuse blows immediately upon 

replacement, there is a problem with the wiring to the circuit board.  Have qualified service personnel check 

and repair.  

Obstructions

Check outside the unit for possible obstructions: tree, post, car, folded over flap seals, debris on top of the 

slide room, etc.  Check inside the unit for any obstructions: luggage, furniture, open cabinets, carpeting, 

wiper seal, etc.  Also check for smaller objects that may be wedged under the floor or in the sides of unit.  

Remove obstructions before proceeding.
