My Frontier has traveled further afield than I have. According to the dealership, its previous owner was a government worker who lived overseas long enough to ship a vehicle. While there, s/he added a Carryboy powered tonneau cover.
That was manufactured in Thailand. It is not sold in the States. Lucky me.
During a snowstorm in February, the power lift function stopped responding. It had always been underpowered, but now it has no response whatsoever. My guess is that there's an electrical issue or the motor got cooked somehow. I'm having a very hard time finding a shop to even look at it, much less attempt to fix it.
As this forum has members from all over the world, I thought I might be able to get some assistance in diagnosing and/or DIY fixing the problem myself. I've checked both fuse panels, and everything appears to be OEM. There must be a fuse somewhere that I can't find that would be the cheapest/easiest fix, but in a close second would be the switch itself. I've emailed a shop in the UK that is a Carryboy dealer to see if they'll sell me parts. Fingers crossed on that thread!
Anyone have any suggestions on how to work backwards to figure out what's wrong with a rather expensive accessory? If it weren't so expensive to replace, I'd just toss it and get a new one. This headache just won't go away!
