Tension knob on awning arm
Ok I have a 2012 Jayco jay flight with an 18' Carefree awning. When loosing up the tension knob it unscrewed all the way and the knob came off as well as the washer thing that holds it in. How do you ...

Did the inside threaded part disappear down the arm? That happened to me once...I could see the darn thing and even move it, but I could NOT get it to stay in place so I could get the knob bolt into it.
What I finally used to fish/hold it back into position was good ol' duct tape. I stuck a sticky-side-out wad on a stick and jammed the threaded "washer" against the inside lip of the arm long enough to let me get the threading started.
I sure am more careful now as to how much I unscrew that puppy!
