Thanks for the notes guys - when we return to SC I will definitely replace the Viton sensor/cutoff switch with what Richard suggests.
As a side note, just as we reached West Palm on I-95 the awning decided to open on it's own. By the time we got the rig stopped we had no choice but to cut it down and remove the arms. In rush hour no less. Sigh. I am wondering why Gerard (and other awning companies) do not provide a locking mechanism so it cannot extend while driving at 65mph.
Oh well. We never used it anyway. I'll bet it'll pour rain the remainder of the week!
