Lippert Components Solera Power Awning Plain Drive Head Assembly in Black – Includes Front Drive Head Cover, Back Drive Head Cover, Motor, Driver Head Gear Kit 273478

This part was very easy for me to install by myself. Works great. I did need to cut the wire ends from both motors to use the old/existing connectors with the new motor to make thing simpler for me. Otherwise a fairly straight forward swap.

Excellent product but very expensive

Good product, works as expected, thanks

Perfect fit for my 2014 Grey Wolf 26dbhThe wire harness was different (the pigtail was a double dc style, still positive and negative.) I opted to transfer the motor off my broken head instead of splicing the wires. Could have gone either way but this way was quicker and cleaner. Motor transferred easily. Head installs with one screw!

You have to support the awning roller after disconnecting the old motor. It’s almost 10’ in the air, so you need a very tall step ladder or a long board Another person on a ladder could hold it up, but it takes at least 10-15 minutes to put in the new motor, so they would be stressing. Once you get in in place, the small set screw is also tricky to get in the right spot. The good news is the new motor is quieter and faster than the old one.

The original awning motor on my travel trailer broke. The motor still worked, but the metal that mounted the motor to the awning arm broke. Since the mount was not available as a separate part, I purchased this motor assembly. It was an exact fit replacement the only difference being the connector. It was a simple matter to cut the old connector off the wire on the trailer and crimp new solderless connectors on which plugged into the new motor connector.

Seems a little pricey but it goes on easy and works good

The old BIG screw is worn-looking and a little corroded. The little screw that holds the shaft to the awning is a bit rusty and worn. It would have been nice to have these replaced as-well. Especially at this price-point.

This replacement unit is built much better/stronger than the one it replaced. New one has all-metal gears and no plastic parts except for the covers. The wiring connectors were a perfect match for what I had on the RV, so not reworking of the wiring was required.

Product came broken.
