I have to change one of the arms on my main awning. Where it is bolted to the end of the tube, the arm is split. My question is: Is there a sppring on the motor end of the tube, I know there is one on the other end. I will most likey change out the vinyl to fabric while I am taking it apart.
If anyone has done this I could use some info on what you did or how you did it. I am trying to save the hassle of winding the spring back up, and if the arms were in an extended position or open just a few inches and strapped to hold them there.
I called Dometic and they were of no help.
Thanks for your time
