Replacement End Cap for Dometic Awning

[Bill Reed]

I've lost the left hand end cap for my Dometic 9500E awning and can't seem to find anyone who sells this as a replacement part.  I'd be grateful for any pointers.  None of the suppliers suggested by the Oliver service department has been any help.

Have you tried panther rv? I've found some difficult to find bits there over the years...

Did Oliver give you the part number to search with?

Thanks for the prompt reply.  Oliver did not give me a part number to search with.  I found an end cap at Panther RV that looks right, but the Dometic model numbers it fits don't include 9500E.  I have sent a message to Panther but haven't heard back yet.

I believe this is the parts explosion for  your awning

And, a portion of the parts is below. Rh or lh is as you face the awning (if i remember correctly.. verify!)

Kudos to Panther RV.  They responded promptly to my query with a link to the correct part, and I have placed an order.

Glad they could help you. 

I'm in Florida,  so obviously not close to Panther rv, but I still got my parts on a timely basis. Nice folks.

Perhaps you could post the appropriate part number for folks in the future?  And is lh rh, facing the awning? Those end caps, on every awning, take a lot of abuse. 

We have had two different awnings.  End caps discolored on the first.. We removed and painted,  with krylon.  We're on our second awning, after many years, and end caps are ok for now.

Bill,

I have a Dometic awning as well on our 2020 (manual type) would you mind sharing the part number? My cap is slightly loose and I may order another to replace it.

Thanks,

Patriot

I'm sorry I don't recall the part number, and it isn't clear to me that the same cap would fit your awning anyway.  My awning is powered.  I would contact Panther RV and give them the model number of your awning.  I found them very helpful, and the part they shipped was the correct one.

No worries Bill, thank you.
