Girard error code Slow Motor Response
The awning motor operates but is sluggish or stalls after a short distance - typically low voltage or insufficient current to the 12V DC motor. The GC1146C operating range is 11 VDC ~ 14 VDC with current up to 10A; a documented symptom is the motor running only 10-12" and then stopping when it has less than a solid 12VDC at the motor connection. (Girard primaries do not reference a motor run-capacitor for this DC controller.)
What to check, and in what order, is in the app. The flow Girard GC1146C - Slow Motor Response 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.
