    Awning stuck

    Trailer is a 2015 Avenger 33' BHS and for some reason awning decided to quit on us. Curious if anyone has had this happen and is there a way to manually roll it in? Power switch works because you can see the lights dim a little as always but awning don't come back in.

    If the lights are dimming, the motor is trying to run. That would mean the awning is probably jammed. Likely something got pulled in or it retracted unequally. Try to manually move it back out a little to see if you can free it.

    There should be a strap to allow you to retract manually if the motor fails, but if a bar is jammed that may be more complicated
