    Awning not initially extending

    The Solera awning on my 2021 GD Imagine 22MLE does not initially extend. When I push the Awning Extend button on the control panel, I hear clicking noises but the awning does not extend. If I manually start the awning at the motor, extending the awning about four inches, then push the Awning Extend button it will extend okay. If I retract it all the way the same problem reoccurs when I go to Extend it. If I retract it within six inches of being fully retracted, I can push the Awning Extend button and it will work fine again. Has anyone else had this problem?

    Clicking sounds like a skipping drive gear

    Can you take the cover off and see if anything is loose

    I will check next time I get the RV in two weeks. Why would the gear skip only when initially extending the awning when it is completely closed?

    Orientation perhaps. No idea just a guess
