Broken motor mount left side

Hello everyone,
Looking for help in figuring out what part to order. Left side plastic piece that holds awning motor broke when I lowered it. Motor works, but is hanging. Here are a few pics. It's a 2018 Sierra 401flx. Hope it is okay to ask here. Any help would be much appreciated.
Best regards,
David

Looks like it was frozen fast.

Did you contact the awning manufacturer?
Most manufacturers are good about supplying parts for their awnings.

We need to know the make and model of the awning to get part numbers, but what you need is the front and rear drive side covers.

That's not plastic and i would get the wires out of the ice and disconnect them . looks like the only thing holding up the awning tube is the wires. may want to zip tie things up till you get it fixed . One more thing i noticed is you have snow/ice on the awning . the freeze thaw and the weight of ice can quickly ruin your awning fabric and cause other damage like braking the end pieces that hold to roller tube on Oh wait all ready did that , lol

It looks similar to my Dometic awning.
I'm not sure if just the cap is available?
Here is the drive... maybe get you started...

Here are the numbers, I think

Thank you. Here are the numbers on the awning. Is this helpful?
Best regards, David

Looks like 5picker is right. They only sell the entire drive assembly.
Here's your awning It's a 9100 POWER LED FRTA MCH CHARCL 17'

The drive assembly is #3310423.209U
Just search for that part number and you'll find what you need.

Having said that, Since it's a 2018 I think I'd contact Dometic and see if they'll do anything for you. the worst they can do is tell you no, and you never know, they may warranty it.
