Checked the switch and seemed all wires were firmly connected. Any ideas? Thanks in advance! - Shane

I have a 2014 Freedom Elite 23U with similar retraction problems. The awning extends fine but take 4 or 5 steps to retract. The complete awning was replaced in June 2018. I have spent a good deal of time trying to find a new switch. My awning replacement did not include a new switch or wiring. I am not sure whether the issue is poor contacts in the awning switch or dead spots in the motor winding. The issue has been there right since replacement. I thought the RV dealer had not tested the unit after the replacement and it was returned from the pickup lot. Got it home and the same issues have raised their head about every second time the awning is retracted.
