Slide came out while in storage
What would cause one of the slides to come open about 4 inches while the camper was in storage with the battery unhooked. Does anyone known what would cause this?

I think that there has been this Question on the forum before, and been solved, I have not had this problem myself, but your answer will not be long coming with the knowledge of the forum members.

There could be air in the system, an internal leak, an external leak or a valve issue.

Don't know the answer, but hope it was in covered storage.

I think Earl is on the right track. I was told it takes constant pressure to keep the slide in. So, if there was a leak in the hydraulic system maybe the slide could move out just a little as yours did.
