On a side note, did you have to lock the awning in place when you pulled the motor, to keep it from rolling up? I've read differing accounts that say you don't need to since there isn't any spring inside, but the Dometic literature says you do.
TIA

Pull the motor and get the number off of it. That said, even though their are different part numbers they're most likely interchangable on the 9100. Dometic changes part numbers when they change vendors.
I have 3 9100 motors in my garage I pulled from others rigs that were inoperative when replacing their motors, and had them internally rebuilt. All failed due to corrosion. It corrodes the stator. They are all identical as far as dimensions and such.
Always keep your trailer stored nose high and when the awning is out pitch it down towards the rear opposite the motor. Its the water that kills them.

This is the P/n for the white end cap motor. Doug

How the heck are you supposed to know what motor you need without taking the darned thing apart?
Why so much resistance to calling Dometic and asking? Supply any numbers you can find on your awning hardware and give 'em a call. You also haven't mentioned why you want to replace this motor, nor have you provided any details about your rig which would indicate it's age, but it's possible you might have one of those awning motors covered under an earlier recall, depending on whether you particular unit falls within the recall dates. Call 'em.
