The slide out could be malfunctioning for a number of reasons, but the motor or solenoid can very well be the culprit. Below I've attached a snippet from the manual that goes over how to test both the solenoid # LC118246 and the motor so that you can see if either are bad. You'll also want to check the hydraulic fluid reservoir to ensure there's enough fluid, check the lines for any leaks, and then check your electrical connections for any loose or corroded connections.
