Car Awnings Dont Work

Although i can see the wire i don t think i can possibly reach down there to get at the connection.

Car awnings dont work.

Vehicle awnings are a smart way for off road truck and jeep owners to get a break from the sun on those hot days. This buyer s guide will look at some of the best vehicle awnings available today. Simply pull it out and rope the legs into the begs. The awning is rather long around 2000 mm long so probably not the best car awning but should fit just about any truck and mid size suv.

Check the power connections to see if there is a short in the wiring or the cord is not plugged in. There are several problems that can cause the awning not to work correctly. The awning itself retracts into a pvc polyester cover and is then secured into a very tough nylon bag which is also pvc reinforced. If it s clicking it could be the gear stripped or even a binding and the motor tries but shuts down due to the binding.

If it is a dometic awing un plug the motor up buy the awning tube an hot wire it to the batterie if the motor works it is the switch i climbed a ladder and had a look down the front awning tube but it s in the closed position. Take some time inspecting the awning for any signs of warping weather damage rusting tearing in the awning fabric itself or the motor overheating and working too hard. Do you hear any type of clicking noise like the motor is trying to bring the awning in or just dead silence.
