Will the Solera Manual Retractable Awning to Electric RV Conversion Kit Work w/ a Carefree Awning
Question:
Can your Manuel to electric conversion kit be used to replace the operating system on my “carefree one touch” awning. The original one touch awning motor failed, is no longer a available and I now have a “gerry rigged” motor which is working, but the awning motor cover doesn’t fit so I currently have a “black duct tape cover”.

No, the Solera Manual Retractable Awning to Electric RV Awning Conversion Kit # LC329250 will not work with your Carefree awning. The kit is not compatible with awnings other than Solera.
From what I could find, it looks like the Carefree One-Touch fit into the Spirit and Fiesta models from Carefree. If that is the case, we do have an alternate option. That would be to replace the arms all together. We have some kits for that, which I have listed below.
