Solera Power Awning Motor | 266149 | Pre-July 2015 | Dual Connectors

Restore reliable power operation to your Solera Power Awning with the Solera 266149 Replacement Awning Motor with Dual Connectors. Genuine Lippert/Solera OEM motor engineered for Solera Power Awnings built BEFORE July 15, 2015. Power-drill compatible for manual operation backup during power failures.

⚠️ For Solera Power Awnings Built BEFORE July 15, 2015

Critical date-based fitment: the 266149 is designed for Solera Power Awnings manufactured BEFORE July 15, 2015. If your awning was built AFTER that date, you'll need a different motor variant instead — see the Lippert/Solera Venture Motorhome Awning Motor (Post-July 2015) for the newer-build replacement.

Check your awning's build date before ordering. If uncertain, compare your existing motor visually to product images — the dual white connectors are a key identifying feature of this variant.

Dual White Connectors

The 266149 features dual white connectors — a distinguishing visual feature vs single-connector variants.

Power Drill Compatible — Manual Operation Backup

Standout real-world feature: cordless drill compatibility for manual operation during power failures:

• Engage the motor with a standard cordless drill
• Manually retract the awning if 12V power fails
• Continue using your awning without electrical operation

Meaningful for boondockers, off-grid travelers, or anyone who's experienced a dead battery with the awning extended.

Universal Solera Awning Type Fit

Compatible with all Solera Power Awning configurations:

• Short awnings
• Flat awnings
• Pitched awnings

Easy DIY Installation

Designed for straightforward replacement — DIY-friendly for owners comfortable with basic RV mechanical work.

⚠️ Professional Installation Recommended

Awning motor replacement involves working with tensioned awning components and 12V DC electrical. Awnings under tension can cause injury during disassembly. Installation should be performed by a qualified RV service technician for best results.
