One awning not working. What's the permanent solution
Hello,
All of a sudden, one of my Awnings is not working. Currently, it's in the Retract position.
I should note that the other Awning is working fine.
I see in the Manual there is an Override, which is fine for a temporary solution.
...But what's the permanent solution?
...Or is there anything I should check or try?
FYI: It's going to be well over 100 degrees where I'm for quite some time, so it's a problem.
Thanks!2020 GD Imagine 2970-RL

If it works in the override position, that might give you a clue of where to look.

Gosh, if it is in I don't think I would override it before I figured out why it isn't going out.
How are your electrical troubleshooting skills? If good then I'd start at motor in the awning to see if there is 12v to it. If not then work your way toward the switch and then on to the 12v source.
I don't recall if there are separate fuses for each awning so maybe check that before anything else.Larry KE4DMG

Unfortunately, electrical skills not too good.
Just checked the fuses -- they're good!2020 GD Imagine 2970-RL

I think you'd be best served by calling a mobile tech to take a look. Since you've said that electrical troubleshooting is not your forte', it may be time to call in a more experienced person.

I listen for the relay "click" when I'm troubleshooting the awnings... which is now often then it should be.
If your here the click but no movement, then you can usually start at the motor.
