I have a 1999 Komfort trailer. The slider works when plugged into the house but not from batteries, and the batteries are fully charged. Anyone have any trouble shooting ideas?

My coach used to tell me that when the slidder doesn't work you better have a good fast ball

Most of the time folks have the opposite problem as most slides do not operate directly from the converter but are wired directly to the battery, not through the converter. When wired this way there is almost always a fuse in the positive line to the slide motor, usually located fairly close to battery. Try following the SMALL wires from the battery and see if you don't come to a fuse box.
Good luck / Skip
