    No Awning Lights!

    Rolled out the awnings on our Solitude 2930 today and it was like a mini waterfall. Water just rolling off as they rolled out. Have had a-lot of rain but this is first time water has collected inside the awnings in this amount. This evening turned the awning lights on and no lights. I suspect I’ve got a blown fuse. Any idea where it would be located or where the lights are fed from? Plan to look in the morning.

    Sometimes the fuse is behind the physical switch for the awning, if you have One Control, fuse could be on the main controller which is usually behind the false wall in basement.

    Had the awnings been rolled up backward? (Don't laugh - this happens.) That's the only way I can think of that rain would collect inside the awning. @FT4NOW has pointed you in the right direction on the lights.

    PS/Edit: Rolling the awning up backwards could also mess with the wires to the awning lights if they're in the roller instead of on the inside edge.

    Awning lights are back on. The next night I tried them, and they worked. No blown fuse. Perhaps things dried out from all the water in the awning. The awning was rolled up correctly so it's a mystery how so much water collected inside it. I've never seen that amount of water fall out of the awning as it was unrolled. We did have a blowing rain.
