45LP Main Awning will not extend

Well, this morning, I tried to extend the main awning. I heard the motor running, but looked out the window and did not see it coming down.

I pushed the retract button and tried again, but nothing other than the motor sound.

Any ideas ?

Mine gets stuck like that sometimes. My cure is to take my awning rod,
and touch/push up the wind sensor on the left-hand side. Then go push the button again...Not sure why or how it works, just does.

Thanks. I'll give it a try now.

Well, I borrowed a ladder. Got up on the roof and looked and It just needed a little nudge to get over the locking pin. I put some axle grease on there a little bit to help with the next time and we’ll see what happens. Thanks for the replies
