Girard awning remote replacement

Hello,

Seemed to have misplaced it on my 03 U320. Has anyone been able to source a replacement?

You might be able to get one at their factory out here in California.

Be aware if you order from Girard that they are very disorganized and difficult to work with. I have been trying to get a part from them for about a month. While it is finally on the way, the process has been difficult. At both locations they regularly don't answer the phone and don't call back in response to messages. If someone gets through, they will make promises that they don't keep. Girard is one of the most difficult companies I have ever worked with. After my experience, if I had to do it again I would go with some other company.

Girard is now owned by Lippert (as of 2022).  Yet another sad consolidation in the RV industry.

Girard is still operated separately from Lippert for sales, service, customer service, etc. I have dealt with Lippert customer service for other products and have found them to be very helpful and easy to work with. Girard, on the other hand, seems to be a mess.
