Weather Pro awning motor needed

Dometic Weather Pro 21 foot awning. Model 815EV20.001U.
A replacement motor is needed. On previous posts it was mentioned that this motor is a auto window motor. Does any one have a part # for the window motor? Has anyone replaced a Weather Pro awning motor? Any info at all out there ?

Looked on ebay and someone had a used one for 99.00 or best offer and saw one on a RV dealer page new for 499.00.
I have never changed one myself . Hope you find what you are looking for.

Just had to change mine--- there are several different motors available. Make sure you get the right motor. If you got a motor that was the wrong torque output might not close or close very slowly.

When mine failed I could hear the motor run but it would not open or close, I ordered the motor when I got the new motor and removed the old motor I found the shaft that drives the awning had come loose from a crimped or swideged joint. If I had known this before I bought the new motor I would have tried to pin or epoxy the joint together. The joint is one half shaft socket with a one half shaft-shaft.

I ordered a new motor from Camping World. They are the distributor in S.W. Florida. Ordered on Friday , received on Monday. Now the bad part. I removed the old motor and found that the screws holding the motor to the motor case had backed out and were not allowing the motor to turn. I installed the new motor and repaired the original motor. So I now have a spare motor or if someone needs a used motor I will sell it . It is in Fort Myers, Florida.

If the motor is on the end of the awning arm (most are) simply remove the motor. Need instructions, look on YouTube. Take the motor to your local auto parts store and they can match it up. Mine was an electric window motor. Cost $24.99 at auto parts store compared to $499.00 quote from dealer. Hope it works out for you
