In-wall slide-out motor controller

I have a 2017 Eagle HT 24.5 RLTS. Been trying to find the motor controllers for the in-wall slide-outs. Need to know where they are in case of a problem with operating the slide-out. Does anyone know where Jayco has put them?

On the PINNACLE they're on the ceiling of the front pass thru.

Thanks, Looked all in storage compartments. Nothing. Will do a search in the inside cabinets tomorrow.

On my 2017 Eagle 293RKDS, it's on the ceiling of the basement on the road side. Which is directly under the slide on my floorplan. My auto leveling control panel is right next to it.

One of ours is in the basement like Grumpy says and the other is in a cupboard underneath the sink in our 1/2 bath. Keep looking, they don't often put things in sensible areas.

I have them in the basement and 2 in my lower cabinet of the pantry inside the unit. They are usually close to the slides they control and not much more than a few feet from them.

Get low and have a flashlight.

I thank I have looked everywhere inside and out.
To be sure I am looking for the right thing - They are a box about 3 to 4 in. by about 1/2 in thick? I have only seen them in the operators manual.
Also will they be in the non moving part of the camper not the slide out itself?
Later I will get a screwdriver, flashlight and hammer an go looking again.

Thanks for the replies.

Not sure what brand of slide you are dealing with (ie. PowerGear, Schwintek), but I offer the attached photo because of what my PowerGear controller looks like. It is the small uncovered circuit board on the left with the two relays and the fuse on top. It's also mounted upside down, so the PowerGear logo (at the bottom of the board) was very hard to see. I would have never guessed that it was a controller until I happened to see it on a YouTube video. The boxed controller on the right is for the Schwintek slide.

Do you have a basement locker in that unit with any removable panels? I am going to guess behind there is a possibility, but as noted above brand of slide will determine what panel you are looking for.

You could always call Jayco hotline for help with a tech. They have the wiring diagrams on file there.

According to the owners manual it will look like the Schwintek. It says the slide out is made by Lippert.
There is a panel in the basement that goes all the way across. I hides all the neat wiring and plumbing installed by Jayco. The water heater is behind it also. I will unload the compartment tomorrow and take the panel out. More than likely the controllers will be in there also.

Update. Located the slide out controllers. They are in the road side storage compartment on the left behind divider panel. The only thing on the out side of the panel is the battery disconnect switch. Spotted them by using an inspection mirror to see behind panel. Cut a opening in panel and made cover for it in case I need to access the controllers in future.
As someone said Jayco will put them anywhere.

I found one for the slide I had trouble with this past weekend, but I have not clue where the rest are. Is it true that each slide has its own? I

The in wall slideouts have a controller for each slideout. The ones with the rack underneath do not.

If your NP is the same as my 14 layout then the rear bunk house controllers are in the lowest pantry below the last shelf. 1 each.

The BR slide is in the basement door side and the kitchen slide in behind the panel in the basement on the door side which is where all my remote control panels are too.

I have 4 Schwintec controllers on my unit. The largest is the lower mounted rail system with not controller.

Thanks J-M,
Just joined this forum to specifically see if anyone knew where those mythical controllers were and you appeared to find it! I’ve been looking for it last couple of days because we were having kitchen slide issues... we have the Eagle HT 24.5CKTS and next time I am at the 5ver, I was going to empty the basement to continue my search... you have helped narrow my search significantly, hopefully! Thanks!
