Does anyone know where I can get a replacement wind sensor. 1 of the 3 wind cups has broken. Do I have to replace the entire unit ??? I see they can go for as much as #300 bucks.  Thanks Mike
 
I have heard that the mfr will not sell just the cup assy. Have a look at this thread for others solutions: http://forum.bacrallies.com/m-1309799485/
Also, I have an A&E awning with a wind sensor that has never been turned on. They are pretty sensitive and a small gust and the awning starts rolling up. Shut off my sensor, roll up the awning at night or when we leave.
 
Suggest you try the Girard Sysems site.  They've attended many rallies where they fix such things.  When ours was new it wasn't adjusted quite right and closed too much and too fast.  They adjusted it and we've been quite happy with it since then.  See http://www.girardrvawnings.com/products/windsensorV.php

Girard wants $!42.00 for whole new unit replacement.  Found for $9.95 + $3.09 fgt = $13.04 a replacement wind cup part at [email protected] their replacement "WS-2010-15 Cups G1'" .  Old cup sensor is on a splined shaft and can be up lifted off. Used 9/64' drill to open hole in new cup piece and just pressed on to Girard sensor shaft. Seems to work fine.
