Lippert SlimRack Slide-Out Motor, Controller & Parts Diagram

The Lippert Power Gear SlimRack is an RV slide-out system that uses vertical drive columns, gear racks and 12V geared motors to extend or retract the room. Its motors, controls and wiring are different from those in a Schwintek In-Wall slide-out. This guide helps you identify the SlimRack motor, harness and controller before ordering a replacement.

SlimRack parts drawings

Lippert's illustrated component manual shows the drive motor, mounting bracket, retention hardware, wall controls and controller assemblies. The motor and bracket illustrations are on page 25 of the original components manual, while the touchpad and controller reference is on page 28.

Component numbers

Which controller belongs in your system?

SlimRack uses both manually programmable and auto-programmable control arrangements. A programmable system has a wall touchpad for setting and restoring the room's travel stops. An auto-programmable system generally uses a rocker switch and determines its stops automatically during normal operation. The control modules have different electrical and programming requirements.

The 700157 is the current manually programmable controller, superseding 404183. The 700156 is the auto-programmable version, superseding 366701. Both are identified by Lippert for applications with the relevant parking-brake input. Match the number on the original controller, its connector layout and the vehicle's parking-brake configuration before replacing it.

The older 366703 Winnebago controller needs special attention: Lippert identifies replacement arrangements using 700156 or 697096 with additional adapter harness 387587. Replacing the box alone is not necessarily sufficient on this configuration.

Motor and harness identification

The 364262 is a 42 mm mid-torque SlimRack motor with brake (Power Gear reference 1510000227). The older parts drawing also shows a 366698 motor without a brake; these motors have different functions and must not be selected by their cylindrical shape alone.

The motor mounting arrangement changed in February 2018, when an older spring-and-hook bracket was replaced with a revised bracket and retention screw. When servicing an earlier installation, follow Lippert's appropriate motor and drive-block replacement procedure rather than reusing an incompatible bracket.

The 370286 is a 15-foot six-pin male-to-male motor harness. Compare both connector ends, pin arrangement and installed routing length before ordering. It is not a universal replacement for the harnesses of other slide-out designs.

Maintenance and support

Keep people and objects clear of the room's movement path. Before working on its motors or controls, disconnect power and follow the manufacturer's slide-room support and service procedures. Controller replacement or motor work may require resetting the IN and OUT stops. The correct procedure depends on the installed controller type.

Use the SlimRack owner's manual or Lippert SlimRack service instructions for operation, troubleshooting and programming.

Other RV slide-out parts diagrams

If your slide has horizontal tracks on its sidewall instead of SlimRack drive columns, see the Schwintek In-Wall slide-out parts guide. For frame-mounted drive rails, see the Lippert 2½ × 2½ through-frame slide-out guide. Motors and controllers should be matched to the exact system.
