I am ready for a trip , i keep my bus stored with slides out , went in today and tried to retract slides , and all i am getting is a loud click from the solenoid pump box under the drivers seat , my bus is a 02 4 slide hwv slide system . tried with and without engine running . nothing but a loud click
Call Randy at HWH in Moscow , Iowa to troubleshoot. Probably a considerable wait for a return call at this time of year. Best of luck
Paul,
Your pump motor might have quit. First, verify that you are getting 12V to the motor. If you are then the solenoid is good and the motor is your suspect. Pull your slide motor and hook it up to an external 12V source. Motor sits below slide room solenoids and is held in with just two bolts and a battery cable. Removing the motor will not cause an atf leak from reservoir. There are two motor sizes and I was advised to get the larger motor as they both bolt up and the large one is much stronger. Here is a source for a new motor:
The small motor--http://www.elreg.com/dc-motors/dc-motors-complete-units/538-8023-12volt-ccw-hydraulic-pump-motor-250-slot-shaft.html
The large motor--http://www.elreg.com/dc-motors/dc-motors-complete-units/538-6854-12volt-ccw-hydraulic-lift-gate-motor.html
This source is much cheaper than Newell or HWH and motors look exactly the same.
Let us know what you find!

Note: On my coach the side room solenoids are located in the left front compartment under the drivers seat. Motor bolts into side of slide room reservoir, under the solenoids.
Try Newell too even I xmas they will return your call in 20 mins.. 888-3- Newell.. Push 1 for service . Then you will have to leave msg for after hours emergency.
Ok i got that fixed today , it was the solenoid that went bad , switched it out and everthing was working , but now have another problem , i have a hole on the slide seal
hi paul, so you just happen to keep spare solenoids with you? ha
if you have a hole in the seal, i think you know the answer to that one.
btw, another guru had a slide seal changed at a shop in mesa/apache junction that he was referred to by newell just in the last 3-4 months.

I did happen to have a soelnoid handy , lucky me cuz it was xmas day
