Awning Motor
mpm32:
I would think there would be a fuse, like I said I only took a quick look. I had it apart on the kitchen counter and my wife was trying to make dinner so for some reason she wanted me to finish up and put it away, women - sheesh.
I will take some pics tonight.
ChadTower:
It may not be on that PCB. I would start at the power source and just follow it until I found the fuse. Do you know yet if it's a DC or AC motor?
mpm32:
it's ac and it's not hardwired anymore. It's out of the awning tube and I wired it to a double throw switch and a plug to test.
ChadTower:
Are you saying you took the motor out of its circuit, gave it AC, and it won't work? That's different than what you said in the first post.
mpm32:
To clarify, the motor has been disconnected from the house power. There are four wires coming out of the unit. Red, White, Black, Green. I wired up the plug and switch according to the wiring diagram to a temporary test plug.
So, the issue is isolated to within the motor itself. Not the house circuit.
The awning came from a relative and if I can fix it, I'll put it up on my deck if not, I'll take it to the dump.
