1.7.2 When the 3307930 & 3309114 control box
is used the pink wire is routed from the 15
pin connector to the ignition isolator of the
vehicle. It should be a 16 gauge wire.
Make sure wire connections are tight and
corrosion free. See FIGS. 1.1B & 3.4B.
SECTION 2 Wind Sensor
2.1 The wind sensor monitors the wind speed (14-
22 MPH) and sends a signal to the control box if
wind speeds exceeds the preset setting. The cor-
rect position of the winds sensor is critical. It
should be within 3 feet of the right side top mount-
ing bracket and away from other objects. To check
out the wind sensor, open the awning and place
the wind sensor switch in the ENABLE (ON) po-
sition. You can create sufficient amount of wind
by placing a standard hair dryer approximately 6
inches away from the wind sensor with the dryer
set on HIGH and NO HEAT. The awning should
close automatically. See FIG. 2.1.
SECTION 3 Control Box
The control box is the heart of the system and
contains a fuse, rocker switch, wind sensor toggle
switch & circuit board.
Note: The 3307930 & 3309114 control box uses two four
pin MATE-N-LOK
®
connectors in conjunction with the RJ-
11-6C4P plugs. If the 3107127.007 cable tester shows a
defect, check these connections for problems. See FIG.
1.1B & 3.4B
1.7 Ignition Interlock Wire
1.7.1 When using the 3307916 Control box, the
ignition Interlock wire when correctly in-
stalled will prevent the awning from open-
ing when the ignition key is in the on posi-
tion. This wire is routed between the igni-
tion isolator (Pink) wire of the control box
to the ignition isolator of the vehicle. It
should be a 16 gauge wire. Make sure
wire connections are tight and corrosion
free. See FIGS. 1.1A & 1.7.
Note: Dometic uses two different control box configura-
tions for the WeatherPro Awnings. The first is part number
3307916 and has 6 molded rubber plug harnesses com-
ing out of a strain relief. See FIG. 3.4A. The second is part
numbers 3307930 & 3309114 and has one (1) 15 pin
MATE-N-LOK
®
with 13 wires going to the strain relief and
it has a 4 pin connector used in the wind sensor cable.
See FIG. 1.1B & 3.4B.
3.1
Circuit Board
The circuit board can be checked out by the pro-
cess of elimination. Make sure there is 12.5 VDC
going into the circuit board.
3.1.1 Disconnect all pig tails coming out of the
(3307916) control box. Control box
3307930 & 3309114 with 15 wire plug
must remain connected.
3.1.2
Check for 12.5 VDC (minimum) at T1 (red
+) and T3 (black –) on circuit board.
3.1.3
Check for 12.5 VDC (minimum) on each
leg of fuse. Place the negative lead of the
volt meter on T3 and check each leg of
the fuse with the positive lead. This should
read 12.5 VDC on each leg. Replace if
defective.
Note: Some control boxes contain an auto-reset fuse.
3.1.4
Check for voltage at the WeatherPro out-
put to motor pigtail on control box 3307916
(Red & Black wire), and on the 15 pin con-
nector on control box 3307930 & 3309114
check for voltage at Red (pins 8) and Black
(pin 13).
First, press and hold the rocker switch in
the open position. Place the negative lead
of the digital volt meter on the Black wire
position of the pigtail and the positive lead
of the volt meter on the Red wire position
of the pigtail. The meter should read (–)
negative 12.5 VDC (minimum). Do not
move the volt meter leads and press and
hold the rocker switch in the close posi-
tion. The meter should read (+) positive
12.5 VDC (minimum).
