How To Convert Dometic Power Awning to Manual
Question:
I have a 13 foot dometic power case awning. I have had so many issues with the motor that I would like to convert it to a manual crank. Is there a conversion kit to do this?

Expert Reply:
In order to convert a Dometic power awning to manual you would need a new set of arms, the Solera Classic Universal Awning Support Arms for RVs part # LC434718 will work well for this. All you would need to do is remove the old roll tube and fabric from the awning you have now and install it on the above once mounted on the trailer. If you prefer black we have this as well as part # LC434717.
In regards to mounting the new arms, you may need to drill a few new holes but this is unavoidable as there are no head only conversions we offer.
