Is this something I should be concerned about?
I was loading some stuff in to one of the storage boxes near the front of the 5ver and this caught my eye it was flashing. I came inside and ran all the slides in a few inches and ran em back out and the red light shut off.

i had another post on the same topic, its caused by low battery, if you hit the in button on all the slides after the battery is back up to charge, its fixed. Thats what the lippert manual says to do.

Too Late now it cleared itself when I did the old in and out. I will keep my eye on it and see if happens again and will pay attention to the codes.

One of the LEDs will blink 1 or 2 times telling you which side/motor has the issue. The other led will blink the code #. All the codes are printed on that label along with override instructions.

I have 4 slides 2 are hydraulic and 2 are electric. Am I correct in assuming that the controller is for the Hydraulic ones? I went out and looked at it again to see if was flashing again and it isn't. On the controller it has an arrow pointing to where the light is and it says to push the button 6 times and to hold down on the 7th until the lights start to flash. Thing is there is no button there where the arrow in pointing.

Javi: you need to look just to the right of the light, there is a rubber button.
RickV: that is to put the controller in override. It will only control a single slide. If you have 2 schwintek slides there will be another controller for that one.

So, it actually controls the electric slides. Where they have it mounted there is no way to see let alone press what is down in there next to the light. I will keep an eye on it and if need be I will have to take the mounting screws out so I can get it down to where I can see in there.

You only need to hold the button until the motors stop humming.

Mine are inside of two of the storage boxes mounted horizontally at the top of the box. I have two electric and two hydraulic slides. And as chuckster57 posted they are only for the electric slides.

All three of my slides are electric, and boy, they must have missed mine or really hid that panel in a super secrete location. I crawled all over, in and out. Did not locate anything like this. Looks to be a handy little panel for sure.
