RE: Slideout Issue
Chuck,

Is it the trim piece that's circled in my attachment below that pulled off? It'd be pretty tough to pull that piece off, but I suppose if the awning caught an edge it might be possible. How did the dislodged aluminum strip occur?

Thanks Chuck,

I see. It looks like the awning caught the trim piece and pulled it away from the slide body. It may have occurred during a slide retraction with a fully extended awning. The awning caught the trim and dislodged it. For folks who don't know, the awning arms are attached to the outside face of the slide body, so the awning extends automatically with the slide. This forms an awning "topper" that protects the roof of the extended slideout body. From that position, a user can go outside to grab the awning loop to further extend the awning into it's fully deployed position.



Chuck,

I would probably get on the phone with Zip Dee to see if they have a service location near where you are. Maybe they can unroll the awning to dislodge the aluminum strip. Then you can unscrew the aluminum trim strip and remove it.
