I just noticed my "windmill" wind sensor for my Carefree electric awning is broken. I've attempted to google for one, but, I didn't have any luck. I know I can go to a dealer, call Monaco etc, but, I'm looking for an internet source. I've looked on PPL's site, but, they only list the entire system. Anybody got any ideas?

When I installed my new wind sensor that I purchased from Girard for approx $60.00, I noticed that the cable is unsupported and needs to be strain reliefed or the cable will pull or break away from the sensor after being subjected to the vibration of driving. I just used a nylon tie-wrap screwed to the coach wall.

This thread is "a first" for me...I don't think I have everseen a thread where the all posters unti now were "non-Monaco Owners Forum Members"

What has Mama done wrong that she has three strays without "Monaco Karma"??
Will you three let me throw some of that special "Karma Pixie Dust" your way..pretty please?
