Girard error code MOTOR RUNS CONTINUOUSLY
The awning motor does not stop at the end of travel. On the Girard awning, end-of-travel is set by the motor's adjustable IN/OUT limit switches, not by a controller relay. If the IN limit does not turn the motor off the exact moment the awning box closes, the motor keeps running when the awning is closed and this will destroy the motor.
What to check, and in what order, is in the app. The flow Girard GC1146C - Motor Runs Continuously walks this code step by step with the pass/fail measurements, wiring schematics and procedures that go with it, and it works offline in the bay.
