Awning

We have a Coachmen Catalina Legacy 2017.
The electric awning will not open. This is the first time I have tried to use it. Still under warranty but most shops keep forever. Any suggestions.

My recommendation would be to check the fuses if you can't find the problem take back to the dealer

Can't be to many things, you can jumper the plug of motor out to see if it's good, or your switch is not wired right or bad and the last if there is a fuse in your panel, i dont have that. Not to much can go wrong, i really doubt if it's a bad motor, but I'm guessing and those are the first things I would check before bringing it in.

You can use an independent RV shop or mobile RV tech. You need to get pre-approval from FR and be willing to be reimbursed.

Try moving the switch to “IN” and see if it moves out. Ours is that way. Neither the previous owner or I have found the time to reverse it.
