F65 Eagle Awning Issue

I have the F65 Eagle. It worked for the demonstration a year ago, but now will not extend. I tried to extend it once last year, but figured I had a head-space problem when nothing happened. There is power at the fuse, but no power at the switch under the passenger seat. I've emailed and called Airstream. Nothing yet.

You said there's power at the fuse. Is the fuse good?

Has there been any work done between the fuse and the switch that might've affected the wiring or the connectors?

No work that could affect the awning wiring.

Are their known problems with the auto-retract switch. Are there adjustments on it that I can make?

This thread was about adjusting the auto-retract mechanism:

Did you ever resolve your problem? I"m having the same one on a 2015 AI. The awning won't extend. I didn't have a spare fuse, so I switched with another 15a into F10, and nothing happened. I'll replace the fuse when my new ones arrive, but I"m thinking it's not a fuse.

F65 Awning

I still can't extend the awning. Power is getting to the fuse and the fuse is OK. No power getting to the switch under the passenger seat. I suspect the auto-retract switch. It's going in to Airstream soon.

ok thanks. How do you check whether power is getting to fuse and switch?

Good luck getting it fixed, and keep me posted. I"ll do the same.
