Lippert RV awning fault codes
Power awnings (Lippert Solera, Dometic) use LED indicators and auto-retract on wind or low voltage rather than numeric codes.
How to read the code
Watch the lock/LED indicator and listen for the wind sensor. Many “faults” are low-voltage or a wind auto-retract, not hardware failures.
Models covered: every code below applies to the Lippert Solera 3500 Series Smart Arm.
