Genuine Carefree of Colorado replacement motor for Carefree Compass, Longitude, and Altitude patio awning arms. Restores powered awning operation when the original motor has failed. Direct OEM replacement — no wiring modifications required.
The Carefree RV R001832 is the genuine OEM replacement motor for Carefree of Colorado's Compass, Longitude, and Altitude powered patio awning arms — the motor assembly that drives the awning's extension and retraction when the control switch or remote is activated. When the motor fails, the awning typically won't extend or retract under power (though it may still be operated manually depending on the awning model), making the motor one of the most common repair items for electric RV awnings.
This is a direct factory replacement built to the same specifications as the original — no wiring modifications or adapter hardware required. Constructed with high-quality materials engineered to withstand road vibration, UV exposure, and the operating demands of regular awning use. Genuine Carefree of Colorado part, sold by authorized Carefree dealers.
• 1x Replacement awning motor Confirm your awning model (Compass, Longitude, or Altitude) before ordering — other Carefree awning series use different motor assemblies.
Before replacing the motor, rule out simpler causes: • Awning won't respond at all: Check the fuse or circuit breaker for the awning circuit first — a blown fuse is a common and easy fix • Switch works but motor doesn't run: Test for 12V power at the motor connector with a multimeter — if power is present but motor doesn't run, the motor has failed and replacement is needed • Motor runs but awning doesn't move: The motor may be fine but the drive mechanism or awning arm may have a mechanical failure • Motor hums but doesn't turn: Motor is seized — replacement needed Always disconnect 12V power before removing or installing the motor assembly.
