wind sensor 2001 monaco

The latest issue is the two cup wind sensor for the awning . Well one side broke off and owner would like it repaired. Is the plastic cup" twirly thing "replaceable, the awning is a girard. my search hasn't come up with

much.

I have seen replacement cups, some have three. Will that change the sensor reading/ speed reading? We can fabricate anything to make it work if that is an issue.

    I did much the same as Twomed but in less than six months it came off somewhere. I bough this recently but have not put it on yet. There is an adjustment on the board to set at how much wind it comes in.
  • Girard wind sensor wind cups. Just bought replacement wind cups from LaCrosse Technology at service@lacrossetechnologyoutlet.com for $9.95 + $3.09 fgt. = $13.04 LaCrosse Technology at service@lacrossetechnologyoutlet.com for $9.95 + $3.09 fgt. = $13.04 Beats Girard replacement price of $142.00.
    Old sensor cups are on a splined shaft which can be removed with wide blade screwdrive on one side and fingers on other to pull up and off.
    The replacement is a "WS-2010-15 Cups G1" from above. Had to drill new sensor hole larger with 9/64" drill and then just press. :)

    Much cheaper fix
    From BAC website :) :)
