Had to watch the youtube video a couple of time to make sure I installed correctly. Everything went together well and our awning works like new. It was so easy, I didn't even need the wife to supervise.



by:

We received our shipment as expected! I installed the the new motor in our awning. It was simple to install and the awning is running perfectly and is so quiet!

The customer rep, Stacy A., assisted us with our purchase. There was some confusion on my part about exactly what I needed and what I was ordering but Stacy was so knowledgeable she set me straight. I am so thankful that she did because the part we received was the part we needed! We will definitely be using etrailer.com for any other needs that might come up!

Our awning motor is still working great! It was easy to install and we were excited about getting the awning fixed. Like new again.



by:

This was for a power awning. It is still working a year later. Very easy replacement. Even though your up a ladder the replacement went very smooth. Helpful hint: spread a tarp under the ladder. You have to remove about 6 to 8 screws in the housing and motor mount. I dropped one in the grass. Took me forever to find it. They are black and pretty much disappear

Actually about two years now and awning still working like new.



by:

product only lasted a couple of months. Your motor still worked but didn't have enough power to roll the awning in. I had to manually assist to get the awning back in. So I had to buy another one. since yours didn't last, i purchased the replacement from another vendor. unless there's something else wrong that caused your product to fail, i'm disappointed in your product. I guess i'll find out if the replacement also fails in a couple of months. Since I only camp for 6 months out of the year, it will probably be next year before I know whether the replacement is still working or not as I just replaced this motor and there is only a couple of months left in the camping season this year.



by:

This is exactly the replacement part that I busted on my camper awning. Dealing with etrailer was an easy and non-frustrating experience. The price was reasonable and the service is exceptional. I like calling and talking with people instead of just ordering from the website. Their website is well organized but actually talking to someone made the order a breeze. I highly recommend them for camper parts and other devices.



by:

F Y I ,,, This has nothing to do with Etrailer !!

crappy motor, lci has issues! New motor unwinds the awning fine but rewinds very slow than stops. someone has to come up with a good after market motor to fix there issues. this is not the first go around with lci awnings ( 2 campers ) a 13 & a 17 ------- 5 motors all together. My new trailer, i demanded i would not take the unit with a lci awning on it.
the only good thing with this motor is you can put a drill on it to roll the awning in and out.
good luck folks,,,, read the reviews on this motor its not only me.
happy camping



by:

This motor was a direct fit and easy to install. I read the question about installing, on his website, and it was extremely easy. Unroll 12 inches, support the arms, take the motor off. Reverse order to install new one.

The delivery was quick and delivered on the date specified in the email. They sent me a tracking number, so I was able to track it from shipping to delivery!

Best price from what I found looking, great follow-up, and great product. I will definitely order from etrailer.com again!

It was so easy to install. I could’ve done it myself, but I hired someone to do it for me. The part was perfect and I now have a new perfectly running awning. Thank you.!



by:

As usual, mailed in a timely manner, correct product sent, and works perfectly! Great company to buy from!



by:

I was so happy when I found the etrailer web site ! I had been trying to find the awning motor we needed for over a week, luckily I found etrailer.com. The ease of finding the part we needed was excellent and the awning motor was an exact fit. My husband put the motor on and now the awning works great. Thank you etrailer



by:

Need a motor for an awning repair and Etrailer came through for us in flying colors.
Did a nice job in making sure we received the product and even provided instructions for the installation. The price was right and the shipping was speedy. We will use this company again.

Still working, no issues



by:

Parts work well. Fifth wheel is easy to remove & replace as needed. It did take some work to install but overall I'm happy with the kit.



by:

Replacement awning motor Installation was straightforward. It works but the awning retract is very slow. Seems like the motor should have a little more power.



by:

Install of motor and tools used.



by:

Oh my goodness!! Very impressed with this company! FAST FAST shipping and it was free! Our awning motor went out so we researched and found this company. So glad we did! If we need any other products we will without hesitation order again from e-trailer. Thanks so much~ Highly recommend!!!



by:

I ordered a replacement motor for the awning on my travel trailer. Exactly what I ordered and very quick delivery. Works perfectly. Took 30 minutes to install. Couldn’t have asked for anything more.



by:

The product was easily identifiable on the website because of the pictures. I was able to locate an exact replacement quickly and easily. The part is exactly as advertised and for a good value compared to other sites. The priority shipping was reasonably priced too. I will be shopping from etrailer.com again!



by:

I ordered electric awning motor for my motor home, it was easy to install and works fine. I was very pleased with the product and will use this company for future needs.



by:

This is one of the best sites for trailer parts that I have ever used it is easy and they seem to have everything at a good price



by:

This motor worked great. It fit just like the original part. Etrailer is the best and they ship fast. They also have great technical support.



by:

Easy replacement, thank you for your help since the place I purchased the camper wouldn't return my call for part assistance. I needed the motor for my awning. Their loss ! Thank you again Ashley.



by:

The replacement awning motor fit perfectly. Easy to install. The awning works just like new.



by:

Product is garbage. Motor is already bad, it will work on extension but will not retract



by:

Exact fit. It took longer to take the covers off then to install the motor. Hopefully the motor will last the life of the rv.

  • Replacement Awning Motor Options for a Lippert Solera Awning W/ A Venture Motor
    I was not able to locate anything on that part number, however since you have a 2016 model year trailer there is a good chance the awning was made after 2015 in which you'd need the Replacement Motor for Solera Power RV Awnings Manufactured after 2015 # LC373566. If it turns out the motor was made prior to 2015, then you'd want the Replacement Motor for Solera Power RV Awnings Manufactured before 2015 # LC266149 instead.

  • Solera Awning Will Not Retract Without Helping It
    It sounds like your Solera awning may have bent arms or a faulty motor. Check to see if anything looks bent; if the arms seem to be bent then you can match up the replacement arms on the attached link. If the arms seems to be in good working order then your motor may be slowly going out in which case you can replace it with Solera Power Awning Replacement Motor # LC266149. There is also the possibility that the motor is not receiving the correct voltage. Use a tester such as LCD Digital...

  • Troubleshooting Solera Power Awning That Stopped Working
    There aren't any fuses in the motor or arm. It is possible that the motor burned out or the drive head gears # LC353964 have gone bad. If you need a replacement motor then you will use the Solera Power Awning Replacement Motor # LC266149. The best way to test is to remove the head housing and use a circuit tester like # PTW2993 to check the wires going into the motor for power. If you have power going into the motor when you press the switch then you know that the motor is bad. If...

  • Do Solera Powered Awnings Use One Or Two Motors?
    No, there is only going to be one motor powering your Solera awning. If you are looking at the awning, the Solera Power Awning Replacement Motor # LC266149 is typically going to be in the arm on the right side.

  • Troubleshooting Powered Awning That Trips Circuit Breaker When Retracting
    If your powered awning trips the breaker on its motor circuit you might have a mechanical issue that is stopping the awning arms from retracting or the breaker on that circuit may not be the correct value. The motors in items like jacks and awnings will draw more power when they see a heavier load or a mechanical obstruction. You'll want to check the operation of the awning manually using the crank; this may help you determine where the problem is. The awning motor should have some indication...

  • Measuring for Solera Awning Installation
    The Solera awnings like the Solera Smart Arm 12V Power RV Awning - 16' Wide - Programmable - White Fade # LC405492 will be 16 foot center arm to center arm. This awning has the actual canopy of 15 foot 1 inch wide and then you have some roller rail on each side then the arm assembly as well. I've attached the diagram from the installation instructions that show the actual width to the center of each arm being what they state is the 16 feet, but I would definitely measure for precision...

  • How Many Times Should Solera Awning Be Wound
    With Solera awnings you will need to have the awning roller wound a total of fourteen times for proper spring tension. It could be yours was over-wound or maybe the motor is getting weak or your battery isn't in the best shape.

  • What Would Cause Solera Power Awning to Blow Fuses Half Way Extended
    Sounds like the awning is binding up around half way out which is causing the motor to try and work too hard and blowing the fuse. Take a look at the relative angle of the awning to the top of the RV. An out of level awning will bind up so there might be some adjustments needed. One way to manually roll out a slide out awning is to use a power drill. There's a plug on the side of the awning head that allows a power drill to attach to so that you can power it in and out. I attached a picture...

    If your Solera awning came with your 2015 Keystone Cougar then the part # LC266149 that you referenced should be the correct fit. However, if you have a Solera awning that was manufactured after 2015 then you need the replacement motor # LC373566 instead.

  • Are Solera Awning Motors Interchangeable
    The appropriate Solera Awning motor is based on when your awning was manufactured. For Solera awnings manufactured through 2015 you need the Solera Power Awning Replacement Motor # LC266149. For Solera awnings manufactured after 2015 you need the aptly named Replacement Motor for Lippert Solera Power Awnings Manufactured after 2015 # LC373566.

  • LCI Solera Power Awning Blows Fuses When Powered 1/2 Way Out Troubleshooting
    Normally this happens when the awning is binding up as it's powering out. Check to make sure that it's powering out level from left to right as it's very possible that one side is higher than the other which is causing the awning to not roll up squarely and eventually bind up. This is almost always the issue when an awning motor wants to blow fuses when before it fully powers out.

  • Lights Work but No Power to Motor on Lippert Solera Power Awning
    If I had to take a guess, I would say the batteries are dead. This is rather common when someone goes to get in their camper after it sits in the offseason for a few months. I know you said you have power to the lights but the lights only consume a very small amount of power to function so it's likely there's enough power for the lights, but not the awning motor which draws much more. I recommend a full battery charge before proceeding with troubleshooting. If the awning still does not...

  • LCI Solera Power Awning Replacement Motor
    It does sound as if your motor like Solera Power Awning Replacement Motor part # LC266149 is drawing too much power during operation causing the fuse to blow when using it. The motor itself offers a very easy installation process done with simple hand tools and already has the Solera plugs installed so you simply plug it right in. This can save you some of the expense at the dealer by doing it yourself. One other cause could be a short in one of the wires running up the arm of you awning...

  • Recommended Replacement Arm For Solera RV Awning
    The replacement arms we offer for RV Awnings are designed to fit the Solera awnings. Finding the correct arm depends on the measurement of the wall-mount extrusion from top to bottom. I have attached a link to the product page on our website you can check out. We offer three different Black awning arms replacements. If you have the Solera Awning and need the shorter 61-inch arm you can order part # LC295743. If you have the standard flat awning you can order the 69-inch arm, part # LC281154....

  • Replacement Motor for Solera Powered Awning
    Your coach is going to be right on the cusp as to when there was a switch in the motors and there are potentially 2 motors that will work for you. The most likely replacement motor is the Solera Power Awning Replacement Motor # LC266149, which was designed for awnings made before July 2015 (which should be your awning if it came from the factory attached). When you remove the motor it should have 2 loose wires with spade terminals on each end as the connectors; as long as yours matches...

  • What Is The Difference Between LC266149 And LC373566 Replacement Motors
    The Solera Power Awning Replacement Motor # LC266149 will work if your Solera awning was manufactured through 2015. If your awning was manufactured after 2015, you'll want to use the Replacement Motor for Lippert Solera Power Awnings Manufactured after 2015 # LC373566.

  • Troubleshooting Solera Awning Motor Retracting Slowly or Stopping
    I checked with the manufacturer for you, and they say that the Solera Awnings are slower when they retract. If you are sure there are 12 volts by testing with a multimeter the next thing to do is ensure the pitch arms aren't bent at all, which can cause issues. After that, they said to take a look at the ground wire before the switch, and make sure that has a good connection. Also make sure the switch is not damaged in any way, and if it needs replacing you can do that with the Solera...
