Getting to all the bolts isn't hard. The only thing you need to remember is that you'll need the awning wide open to reach them all. Make sure you secure both ends of the tube and keep it from being able to move if you don't let it go all the way. The old motor will try to roll freely once it is removed, and a spring is located inside the tube to keep it in place. Make sure the motor you order fits the car properly. A choice of two connector options is available. It was the wrong one that I ordered. I was able to use the old wiring harness after cutting the wires. The only other thing you need to do is replace a few screws on the motor cover and three bolts on the motor. The whole process took an hour or so.

I just had to plug this in and it worked. To install the new one, remove the three bolts holding the old one on (be sure to save them you'll need them to bolt the new one on), unplug the old connections, and plug the new ones in. Make sure your fuse is put back in (you took it out before you played Here's what you do ) and you're done. I found that taking off the cover was the hardest part!.
It was $169 for the name brand motor and $71 for this one. After 10 minutes I was back in automatic mode. The motor on my Solara awning changed out easily and took about 10 minutes.
I had to cut the connector off the old motor and splice on to the new one, though I would have gone with butt splices as well. The price is half that of OEM and it works just as well as OEM. The bonus is As well as being faster, it is 25% faster than the original.

In addition, I made sure that all pivot points were lubricated thoroughly. He continues to struggle and is.
I am so pleased with my new awning. It looks great and works well. The new style of wire connector on (like a quick charge battery charger) needed to be rewired, but it was not difficult.
You can use the factory plug of the old motor to create a pigtail in order to maintain.
I found the connector to be different than mine but it was easy to splice. It worked fine and fit perfectly. I used it a few times but so far it seems great and has solved my awning problem.
