Dometic Power awning intermittent

Hi everyone, this one has got me stumped...

Here is the issue. I was vacationing in Florida this past month. The awning was working fine. When I returned to New York with sub freezing temperatures the awing would not deploy or activate in any way. No fuses open. I bypassed the switch and added current to the awning motor and it worked. I am wondering if there is a fail safe mechanism that prevents the awning from opening in freezing weather or do I have an issue with a broken or loose connection somewhere else. I tested the switch, which had power going to it. I replaced the switch last year for a similar issue during the summer. Any ideas?

I should add that today I was able to open the awning normally. The temps. were in the 50's.
