Well they were supposed to be calling me back. That was 2 days ago. I guess I'll have to call them back again. Since I had to remove a water heater and repair the plumbing since it was broken I will have to wait until I get done with work tomorrow and try again. I don't know why I'm having problems with them I am a ase master mechanic and a certified rv technician so I do know what I am doing all the tests say a problem with the wiring in the front arm. Now if I can just get them to stop saying it's the wiring in the trailer and listen I feel I can get this fixed . I am not even asking for any labor money just want it to work will keep you informed

Called Zip Dee, who thought it was an airstream wiring problem with intermittent contact. Brought it to Colonial. They worked with Zip Dee and determined that it was the sensor on the rear arm that was providing intermittent signals to the board. They ordered and replaced the rear arm. Everything is now copacetic.

Now where would the cutout switch go? That's a good idea
When Airstream Adventures Northwest in Gladstone, OR installed the new replacement awning, at my request, they added the isolation switch next to the awning operation panel and used the same type rocker switch as the factory installed light switches.
