Troubleshooting A Pace Edwards Retractable Tonneau Cover That Isn't Properly Opening And Closing
Question:
I have a pace Edwards remote controlled bed cover on my truck I just bought. When either covering or uncovering the unit is slitting on what sounds to me as a gear or sprocket. I help it along by pulling it closed. Is there a way to adjust this and make it not slip. Thank u.

Typically if a Pace Edwards Retractable Tonneau Cover like the # 311-M-BLFA18A44 is getting hung up it's with the railing and would require lubrication. The canister is a closed system so there isn't a good way to get into it and see if the gears are wearing and fix them without fully pulling it apart, which will likely void any warranty you have.
I recommend first lubing the rails with some dry silicone # RM-747 just to see if maybe the cover is getting stuck somewhere in the railing and making the gears stick or wear down and slip. If that doesn't fix the issue then I'd reach out to Pace Edwards for a warranty claim if possible.
