I have another problem with my 98 Marquis!  I have a Girard awning that seems to forget when it is out and when it is seated.  I can adjust it properly, then the next time I operate it, it forgets where it should stop, both going out and coming in.  I lived in Texas until last May, and when I got the coach out of storage, I had to knock off mud-daubing bee homes off the entrance to the manual adjustment of the awning.  I think my problem may be that the bees got into the area of the motor and limit switches, and that is what is affecting the operation.  How do I get to the motor to either remove it for cleaning or clean it in place?  Is removing the end cap enough?
