TROUBLE SHOOTING/FRICTION POINTS
The slider is powered by the truck’s battery when engine is off and powered by the
Truck’s engine while the vehicle is running. This will cause the slider to operate at
different speeds depending on if the truck engine is running or not.
If you feel the slider is sticking at certain points or the motor is stressing it may be
possible a friction point has developed during the install due to a variance in the slider
or truck’s construction
o
To identify a friction point that may be stressing the slider motor, look at the
slider from outside the truck and open and shut the truck door a couple of times
and study the way the slider operates. Look at the slider for wear in the powder
coating. The slider leaves our manufacturing facility with a perfect powder
coating so if you see a spot on the slider that has scratches or the powder coating
shows a blemish; that’s a good indication of a friction point. Using a file or other
grinding tool to smooth over a small area on the slider can alleviate this
problem.
