Looking For Replacement Drive Head For Solera Manual Crank Style Awning
Updated 09/15/2025 | Published 08/28/2025
Question:
Hello, We have a manual awning on our camper and the awning is a lippert components hybrid solera. We’ve recently had issues with the awning where the mechanism that rolls the awning keeps slipping to the point where we have to roll it by hand to get it closed. We took the plastic covering off and we think there is an issue with the part that connects to the crank, if that makes sense. I can send photos if needed. Do you all sell just that part or do you think it might be a different part causing the issue?
