I have a 2014 mountaineer 373flf I went to pack up and leave the canpground two days ago the the slide with the bed will go in just fine till it's about 3 inches from being closed then it will suck the bottom in flush and push the top way out at a angle. The weird thing is the closet slide directly across from in slides in before the bed if I shut the closet slide off and leave it extended the bed slide goes in just fine but when I turn the closet back on and slide in it still pushes the top of the bed slide out.

They are both lippert hydraulic slides I've tried adjusting both slides I've gone thur the camper looking for obstacle that might get in the way or if anything was jammed in the slides and checked the seals. I've never have any problems with them before.

Has anyone had this problem before or any advice on how to fix it?
Thank you

Not too sure but I think you might have an issue with hydraulic bleed over from one slide to the other. The two slides may share the same pump with some sort of valve to prevent fluid from one slide migrating to the other under pressure. Are you able to manually close the bedroom slide?

I dont think I can manually bring these in but after looking at it more it looks like the carpeted edge of the closet slide is suppose to slide underneath the bed frame a couple inches and the 2x2 bed frame has broken or is sagging down and sits right on the floor so the closet only slides under it a 1/2in then gets in a jam. I am going to try wedging the bed frame up and see if it fixes it

Not too tough a fix if that's what it is. Best of luck
