In my case the awning works fine but doesn't retract with wind gusts. I have been looking for that part for the last year, no joy.No this is the circuit board in the control box. Usually back in the electrical cabinet in the bathroom. Carefree's solution is to take 2 single awning control boxes and wire them in series. I have two new complete systems just haven't looked at making the swap. They didn't mention a Bluetooth system, I'll take a look. Doesn't appear that the existing wiring for the awning will be compatible with the new wiring for the single control box ie wind sensors. I'll swap you perfectly working wind sensors for a control board!
The Carefree solution is to replace the electronics with a Bluetooth system "Carefree Connects" that I do not CareFor. I have all of the parts to make that switch with both patio awnings if I ever make that decision.
