They take a lot of juice to move- how’s your batteries?

Does that slide have a movable floor? (Most did not).
It is not clear what you mean by “crushed a bag”. Can you explain? The air seal (bladder) has to be fully deflated before the slide will move. If there is a problem with the seal, the slide will not move. Maybe you are hearing something besides the motor?
If I remember correctly the motor is accessed from under the wheel well. (Under the foam). At least it was that way on a 2003.
I would make a call to Newell and get them to help troubleshoot.
