    Awning extends but doesn’t retract

    It’s hilarious to watch the trailer break down more and more each year. Now the awning button extends the awning, but doesn’t retract. Do you think this is a button /switch issue, or what is the best way to troubleshoot this? 2018 Wolfpup 16 BHS

    I have a 2022 Forrester 2401B MBS I believe the awning is about 13 ft long. Solera awning motor is shot. FR tech support provided a part number that doesn't match anything on the web. Will a motor #373566 be a good replacement. Looks like it will work.
