I have an Eclipse motorized awning that won't retract. Upon inspection I found the roller tube end cap cracked and slipping on the gear box shaft. Carefree only sells the whole assembly for $230. This...
Wow; good reason to never buy a Carefree motorized awning. I clipped my S&B roof with the rear of my MH, breaking the rear awning cap (manual A&E awning). About $15 at my local RV parts place, and I was back in business.
I agree with the earlier poster; time to improvise, AND tell Carefree to stick it and why.
