NOTICE Awnings are designed to provide shade and protection from the sun. The effects of wind and rain on an awning are unpredictable and can cause severe damage to the awning and/or the vehicle. If wind or extended periods of rain are expected, roll up the awning.
Your Carefree of Colorado Latitude patio awning may have come with a direct response control module (mine did). To test with the awning fully extended, hit the plastic motor cover on the right end twice in rapid succession. It needs good rap. If the module is there, the awning will retract fully. The module senses abnormal movement. It won't retract fast enough in a thunder storm gust, but will save you if the wind increases fairly fast. If you do not have the module, it is an easy replacement. Amazon has them. Not a perfect solution, but better than nothing.I have a 2023 Thor Windsport with these arms on my awning. I was told to never leave the awning out because any wind will rear it off coach. Is that so? If so, any remedy?
