I've done all the "so called" remedies and mine still acts up. I've lubed everything there is to lube, no go. And, contrary to popular belief, there are "NO" limiting adjustments on this particular door awning. I have looked up, down, sideways, inside, outside, around and in all the pivot points, arms etc. and there are no limit adjustment screws, or bolts etc. on this awning.
It's been assumed that the motor gets wet due to the plastic forming a "cup" on the bottom side of it and, upon inspection, that motor is flawlessly clean, no corrosion, rust, what so ever. So, that's out. At this point in time, it's possible that the OPs buddy might just have the same issues that are very hard to remedy. We'll see. Hope he gets it fixed. Post what the remedy is if he does.

Scott, mine is a Carefree and perhaps Winne used the A&E Dometic. I watched the service tech remove the motor cover and do some adjustments and it does not extend as far as it did previously. That said, it occasionally acts up. In fact, the dealer called and said they had ordered a new motor assembly for the awning and we will be having it installed next week. They said the drive mechanism gets weak and the only real fix is to replace it.
