We have a manual awning and opened it yesterday but as luck would have it a rain storm with winds came through.
Before I had the chance to close it the wind lifted it up and back down. Now, neither arm will slide closed. I tried using a rubber
mallet to see if it would close a little and it did, about 2 inches, but I don't want to resort to that. It doesn't look bent
at all on either arm, I'm just not sure what went wrong.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm assuming you mean the arms that brace the awning open that go from the top of the RV to the top of the awning. You can purchase replacement arms. Try PPL Motorhome.com parts dept
There are many videos on youtube showing how to fix awning problems like you are having

Hi Guys:
We've been full-timing for 6 years and love it.
