Right pop-up half open

Everything that doesn't belong in the previous categories probably belongs here. Interiour (how are the seats mounted? how to remove the CEM?) and exteriour (how to replace the popup-lights shock absorbers or a door) are discussed here!

Right pop-up half open

Post by tielrooy » Mon Jan 12, 2004 11:30 pm

Sometimes (I had it 4 times now in a month's time) my right pop-up doesn't open fully. It seems to be locked halfway then. When I turn the screw to open it, I feel some resistance, a click, and then it works again. Can anyone tell me which part I have to replace?

I have just had to replace a pop up motor, if it is the internals of the motor you will have a job gtting at it, the motor is a completely sealed unit

there is a knob at the back of the motor, next to the battery/water tank.
it is white, if you spin that you will see the lights slowly raise/lower
