Keep trying guys no luck there the R is longer  than the LT motor and I need 12v ,the shade is made by MD and they want $600 for a friggn shade because that motor is no longer made there has to be a replacement somewhere

The 12v vs. 24v problem can be solved with a simple converter if the correct voltage motor can't be found.

I don't have a good visual of how the motor mounts, so it's really hard to know which of the many motors out there might work.

Pictures?

RV or even an auto wrecking yard?  I got a bunch of zip dee awning parts from an rv that was in a auto wrecking yard one time for just over $100.

Are these sun visor shades? Carefree of Colorado makes them also if you consider replacing the whole unit.

Did you rip the wire at the soldier joint? It can be repaired.
