Hello! I was just wondering if someone would have any thoughts to an issue I’m having with my awning. Near the end of last season the switch quit working but thankfully the remote still works. So I’m finally getting to looking at it now and this what I’ve found so far.
-The fuse in the panel is ok and there is power at the fuse.
- I tested the toggle switch by hooking up a slide to it and the toggle works fine.
- there is no power coming from the wires to the toggle switch.
-I took the cover off to look at the motor and when I separated the connector and put a tester on the wires running up to the motor I get power when using the remote but not the switch.
Does anyone know if there’s some kind of control module somewhere where these wires run to? I have no idea where the wires that run from the control board go to in order to get power. I looked behind the electrical panel aswell and there are no wires that match the ones that run to the toggle switch so I can only assume that the power runs from the breaker panel, to something else, that splits the power to the toggle and to the remote but can’t find anything online. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
