WEATHERPRO POWER AWNING WIND SENSOR UPGRADE
This sensor easily installs onto your Smart Arm - making it a simple way to upgrade your RV without hassle. You can even set the sensor to activate at various speed levels, so even the slightest of gusts will retract your awning. Compatible with 12V Smart Arm awning hardware, this sensor will automatically retract your awning in the event of increased wind speeds - helping to prevent damage to your awning while you're away from your campsite or sleeping. Be sure to adhere to Weather Pro's wire gauge recommendations and add fuses at positive power before switches.The Solera® Wind Sensor Kit by Lippert™ adds a layer of protection to your RV's awning. Total expense for this project $ 40.00+. If you have no need for the wind sensor or hand remote, or remote switch in storage, wire awnings direct for longer motor life and trouble free operation. Both motors now work with gusto from inside the coach and i am getting 13+- volts to the motors. Rewired the new switches (12 AWG) direct to awning motor and door awning motor and reinstalled in original position to the left of passenger seat.

I then removed and replaced the Winny switches which do not have sufficient amp rating to handle the job. I bypassed the Winny wiring harness and ran new 10 AWG lines to breaker in front electrical cabinet. The switch i am using is peak rating at 30 amp, twice the fused value of the awning requirements.

($260-300) I decided instead to eliminate the control box altogether and use two DPDT momentary reverse polarity switches, (Amazon, DC Momentary Reversing Rocker Switch double pole double throw) ( one for the patio awning, the other for the door awning. I decided to replace the A&E control with one designed for the 9100E, but changed my mind when i determined how much they cost. (Bad Idea!!!)įrom the start the awning did not work properly. The brand new unit was hooked to the original A&E control box.

The OEM awning was replaced with Dometic's Weather Pro 9100E. At one point I replaced the original A&E Power awning because the motor was diagnosed as being defective and a replacement was not available because of Dometic's take over of A&E. My 02 Winnebago Journey has for some time been troublesome in regard to the awnings tendency to stop during extention and/or retraction.
