twoofakind Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 The ratchet to wind in our Fiamma awning has started to freewheel. Wind out but won't wind in. In the process of trying to free it but think the small plastic parts are worn out! We've got the part numbers of the two possible culprets but wondered if anyone else had had this problem. (!)

twoofakind Posted May 26, 2012 Author Share Posted May 26, 2012 Oh well, much pushing shoving and climbing on the roof the part we need is 05564-01- Interesting winding in a 4.5 awning with a socket spanner! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brambles Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 I had problems with mine and discovered some screws had worked loose, gaps opened up and dirt had got into the mechanism. I took it all to bits, cleaned greased etc and been perfect ever since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twoofakind Posted May 29, 2012 Author Share Posted May 29, 2012 Thanks Brambles had a shock at just how many flies were in the end caps and mechanism, had a good old clean out and oil. All seems well now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brambles Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 Good. Fingers crossed it will now keep working. Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
