Yet Another Slideout Fix

I forget when it broke. Near the end of our last outing I think, but it was “Oh, that again”.

I was able to fashion a kludge fix which could open and close the bedroom slide, but waited until we were home to do something permanent.

Opting for simple, the bedroom slide out controller was replaced with just a 12V fuse which supplied power to a wall switch which in turn was connected directly to the slide out motor. Two wires instead of five. It works, that’s all that matters.

Since the new switch takes up more room . . .
. . . a mounting plate was added so the switch would fit
Ta da!
The slide controller is now just a fuse (however, 15A fuse replaced with 25A one)
