No noise was made on the models we checked out during the buying process.

Rv awning slow to retract.

Both awnings make a rather loud screeching noise when retracting. If the awning motor doesn t receive power it will not be able to extend or retract your awning. If you have a standard spring loaded awning with small black rafter knobs loosen the knobs now just a few turns are necessary don t remove them or loosen them all the way. Another reason your awning in not retracting good could be the screws on the awning chord.

An awning rafter knob also known as a tension knob top and travel latch bottom. Realign the rv awning arms and make sure they stay in their position. The easiest way to check your power is with the battery meter built in to your rv. It remains crooked and wont go inside fully.

There can be many reasons why that can happen. You also need to check the awning chord that is placed along with the screws on the awning rail. This would call for the rv awning arm repair. The awning does not seem to have the right tension.

On this particular model during the walk through the tech did not show us the extract retract process so i do not know if this is a normal noise or not. Step 1 undo the travel latch or lock that holds the awning to the side of the rv. We just purchased a new landmark 365 charleston with 2 awnings that auto retract extract. Here are the items to check for power problems.

First reason could be the shifting of the fabric on either end. The awning does not function properly now it will move in and out with the remote but operates very slowly and does not lock into the travel trailer the switch on the wall for operating the awning works sporadically most of the time this switch will extend the awning but not retract it. When the awning wouldn t retract evenly.
