Troubleshooting

Nuts are difficult to tighten or loosen.

Ensure the unique key is properly aligned with the nut's locking mechanism. Check for any debris in the keyhole or nut. Do not force the key; if resistance persists, inspect for thread damage.

Unique key is lost.

Contact Ventura Roof Tents customer support. Depending on the specific model and availability, they may be able to provide a replacement key or guide you on obtaining one.

Nuts appear to be corroding.

While stainless steel is corrosion-resistant, prolonged exposure to harsh environments can cause surface discoloration. Clean with a soft cloth and mild soap. If significant corrosion occurs, consider replacing the affected nuts.

Nuts do not fit M8 bolts.

Verify that the bolts on your roof tent or awning brackets are indeed M8 size. If they are a different size, these locking nuts will not be compatible. Ensure no thread damage is present on the bolts.
