Found the problem, when the kitchen slide comes in that last inch, the platform under the sink that slides in was pinching several wires against the metal junction box. The first picture shows the platform (Ryobi flash light is sitting on it) comes in over the J-box. Second picture slide is out, but shows all the wires that were pinched. None were severed so I taped them all up, tied them down and seems to be fine. Had to remove the two drawers above the LP/CO detector to have access.

Glad you got it. There are stops mounted to the slide tracks that stop the slides at each end to keep pressure off the inside and outside trim.

Had already checked the fuses labelled for the slides. I guess you need to check every fuse no matter how they're labelled.

Drove to Cherokee N.C. in the dark, through the mountain roads that make other "s" curves look straight, got set up, had two beers, all is well.
I’m trying to figure out what that fuse does to control the electrical to all the slides? I did disconnect the fridge 12 volt wire from it and put it on its own fuse. I was getting low voltage to the fridge when connected to that fuse.

That should never happen. Looks like laziness on Jayco's part. All that could've easily been avoided.

Parrott, not sure how that fuse was involved, but there were several 12 volt wires that were pinched, and one 120volt. I think I stopped a potential fire hazard.

I’m sure you did. I checked mine also and it’s good. That slide has lots of wires and the propane gas line for the stove that have to move with the slide. I took that fuse out of mine and none of the slides would work. I would really like to find out what it controls. Be sure to keep an eye on your roller bearings on the slide tracks. I had 2 completely out and several loose. Here is a pic of one with the nut laying on the floor beside it.
