My batwing crank has been cracked since I got this motorhome, but I have probably used the antenna only a dozen times, so I just cranked carefully. Tonight the crank fell off entirely. Then a spring and the disk that rotates the antenna fell after it.
I'm not sure if this is due to the crack in the round part of the handle that goes over the metal shaft, or the missing screw that appears to hold the handle onto the shaft. The only part number is on the disk: DH-1001.
Has anybody had to replace the crank? I have emailed Winegard to ask how to get the part. I hope the only problem is the missing screw and, of course, that the cracked crank should be replaced.
I just found out today the Bears are in the Super Bowl Sunday. Now I'll have to find someplace to watch the game.
