awning

I’m replacing the tension spring in my Dometic 9500 power awning and a curious who has done the spring tensioning and with what tool. I’ve watch the guy on YouTube and he used a curved oil filter visegrip tool. I tried that once, it slipped off and injured my hand. Now, I’d like something a...

Good morning. We have a 2012 350TS and am looking to replace all the awning material, 3 slides and the main awning. I’ve found a supplier for the slide out awnings but haven’t found a place for the main awning. It’s a Dometic 9100 series power awning with the weather shield at the top (at the...

We have a 2020 Mini Lite 2205S that has been awesome until last trip. Trailer stored at our home, we did all our pre trip loading as we always do, walk around,light check etc before we go..we typically stop 10-15 minutes down the road to make sure all is good.. almost soiled myself when I saw...

The poly cord on the awning over the slide out on my ISATA 5 keeps sliding out. There are two screws that are intended to block it but they are not large enough. My main question is where do you get replacement poly cord specific for this. I have searched on line without much success...

We have a 2010 Rockwood tent trailer and the awning is in great condition except for the three fabric ties that hold it up when storing it are rotted out and the zipper on the awning bag is a little sketchy. How would we replace the fabric ties or rig something up to hold the awning in place...

Hi everyone, I'm new to the site and was wondering if anyone has knowledge on why my LCI power awning is blowing the fuse? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

Hello. The awning on our 2021 Isata 3 goes out a foot or so then stops. I can make it go a foot at a time but it won’t extend or retract the whole way. And sometimes it does nothing at all. Power seems good. It seems mechanical, something to do with how it comes and goes from the housing. Any...

I have a 2021 Shasta 31OK. One side of the awning edge is coming apart in two pieces at the 12" piece that hangs down and up one of the edges side. Has anyone used awning tape to seal it shut, any other recommendation to fix, or is it time for a new one, because I don't think the extended...

I use my 19BHLE for family camping as well as boondocking during hunting season. Last year I had a fun time scraping ice and debris off of my dining table bumpout and it got me thinking that the awning/cover for the bumpout might be useful. Has anyone used them? Do you find that it's worth...

Looks like my awning is shot. I rarely used it. Mostly if someone wanted to see it work. Should I be worried about driving with the awning in this condition? I don’t want it falling off on the road. I have no incentive to replace the awning since I don’t use it. I am thinking to have it...

I have a 2018 Sunseeker, with a Solera Powered Awning. It randomly stopped working one day. Battery is charged and all other 12V system is operational. I have checked the awning fuse, it's good. I have checked the awning motor, it's good. I have checked the awning switch, it's good...

Mods, apologies if this is not the right area please move if so. How hard would it be to replace the LED strip lights that are inline with the exterior awning? Mine do not work and the dealer has them on order under warranty and will replace them I just don't want to drive 200 miles to get...

Hi - I stupidly disconnected the wires to my awning light switch without noting what wires went where. Can someone help me out? Thanks

My trailer has a Dometic 9100 awning (replacement) on it. When on battery only (supported by solar) the awning will not extend or retract. When plugged into 15amp house or connected to the tow vehicle it will move. I replaced the battery (with an identical one) last month thinking it was a...

Hello All, I’ve fumbled around on this :confused:website a few times recently trying to figure out how and where to post anything. I think I may be getting somewhere this time, yay! I have a 38 foot, 1999 Forest River Wildwood. Right now, I’m having a lot of trouble installing a strut on my...

I am trying to find the subject above. They are made of Velcro for hanging awning lights. It is easy to take down the lights and can roll up the straps into the awning without damaging the awning. Any one know where to buy these, I am not able to find them. Thx

Hi - Can someone please shoot me a photo of their switch wiring? I stupidly forgot to take a photo before I disconnected the wires to mine. Yeah, you’d think I was smart/old enough to not make such a dumb move… Thanks - Ned

Good evening FRF gurus :-) I have an Isata 3 2023 with a Carefree Latitude awning. Since today, when I click on the button to open it, it will open only by increments of 4 inches. I have to click the button again and it will open for another 4 inches. I have to repeat the same process until it...

I'm getting set to replace the fabric on my 2017 MBS2401W's Solera Electric Awning. I found a video () on youtube that does a good job of explaining the procedure, except for one thing: In the video, they are working on a trailer with no rain gutter immediately above the awning. On my rig, the...

Hello, I am going to replace my awning with a hardtop. My trailer is parked in a permanent spot. However, the bracket that holds the awning up is fastened by a combination of hex screws and some mystery set of something that isn’t going to make the removal as simple as I thought. I posted a...

I was on a trip for several days and got back about a week ago. For some reason, I happened to glance up yesterday and saw something odd on my idler arm side of awning. Obviously I need to fix this and it appears there is a back cover along with front cover that is now missing. I think I found...

2023 GT7 36D7 - just noticed I have a second awning over bedroom slide - but it’s not on the Firefly controller. Anyone know where the switch is? Never mind! It’s attached to the slide itself. Thus no switch. Sorry!

We tried to pull our awning out and it was really hard to move. My son pulled hard and now it is stuck open about half way. It won't move in or out. The little lever which switches from open to retract is loose. How do I get it closed, so we can leave the campground. Wondering what kind of...

We've noticed that the black awning fabric radiates a lot of heat downward when in use. Has anyone replaced their black awning with white, and did it make an appreciable difference? It looks like a reasonably easy procedure, but obviously we don't want to take it on if it's not going to make...

Hi. I am trying to get a part number to replace one of my struts lift support on my 12' awning. Anyone can help me? I have the number on the struts but the RV place wants a part number, pressure of the struts???? Tks
