I have a dometic 975 door awning that went mysteriously out of adjustment. I have been turning the screws for the last 4 hours and once i get the awning all the way closed and cycle it again it is out of adjustment. Is the awning junk? Is there a way to over ride the auto stop setscrew adjustment and just run it in and out with a remote with common sense? Is the set screws only one revolution or do you keep screwing and screwing ?

I've never had such a system. But from experience whenever something suddenly goes awry and the adjustment screws do exactly what you're describing. It's time to take a step back, take a breath and figure out what is actually going wrong to cause the adjustments to wander so much. Something is loose or a mounting point is rotting and not secured or ??? Take a careful look at it while in operation and you'll hopefully spot what is wrong that's causing this.
