Warema WMS RT RP RM tubular motor repair | Radio control | Roller shutters & awnings
Warema WMS RT RP RM tubular motor repair - specialist company for radio motors (EWFS & WMS) for roller shutters & awnings
Important note – repair service
This offer is exclusively a repair service. No tubular motor is sold.
The subject of the contract is the professional repair of the tubular motor sent in by the customer. The motor sent in remains the property of the customer at all times.
By sending in the motor, the customer commissions the repair service and demands that this begins before the cancellation period expires.
Your Warema tubular motor tells you:
“I am the radio motor that provides shade and security – precise, quiet and reliable.”
“At Thomas Reh my electronics were tested and my radio connection was retuned – ready for many more years of use in the sun, wind and weather.”
The proven Warema radio motor for awnings and roller shutters
Warema's WMS, RT, RP and RM radio motors are among the electronic tubular motors for roller shutter and awning systems. They use the proven radio protocols EWFS and WMS, which ensure secure, bidirectional communication between transmitter, sensor and motor.
These motors can be flexibly integrated into smart home systems via WMS and conveniently controlled using a handheld transmitter, radio timer or app. The automatic limit position detection and quiet running make them ideal for demanding applications - both in private and commercial areas.
Every motor is tested by a specialist company and tested for function, limit positions and radio behavior – “tested” for the next use.
Advantages compared to a new purchase
- Sustainable: Environmentally friendly repairs instead of buying new – proven radio technology remains in use.
- Cost-saving: Repair cheaper than buying new, no new installation required.
- No relearning: Existing handheld transmitters, sensors or WMS centers remain connected unless a factory setting is necessary.
- Reliable: Electronics are tested and tested for radio range if an existing transmitter is included.
- Compatible: Supports both EWFS and WMS systems, ideal for retrofit and mixed installations.
- tested: After repair, each motor is tested for function, limit positions and radio stability.
This repair applies to the following error patterns
- The awning extends, but only retracts with slight pressure
- Roller shutters go down, but only go up again with support
- Motor runs, hums or responds with a delay
- Clear “clack” noise when changing direction
Repair process
- An order: Select the appropriate motor model and complete the order.
- Sending: Send in the defective motor properly packaged (shipping costs for buyer).

- Return shipping: Return shipping is generally possible, but only at the usual package costs if the motor sent in is packaged in a stable, space-saving and safe manner for transport. In the case of bulky or inadequate packaging (e.g. tube or bulky goods boxes), I reserve the right to invoice the additional costs of return shipping separately.

Tubular motor fault diagnosis
Troubleshooting promise for tubular motors
Is your tubular motor no longer responding, only moving briefly or acknowledging it with a typical “clack” noise? Not every fault means the unit is beyond economical repair.In many cases, motors can be sent in and repaired directly. However, if the error patterns are unclear or borderline, I recommend a brief preliminary phone consultation. This makes it possible to assess in advance whether a repair seems realistic or whether there may be a total loss.
Following prior consultation, my fault-diagnosis guarantee applies: I carefully assess the submitted tubular motor for repairability. If a repair is technically impractical or not economically viable, you will only be charged the agreed fault-diagnosis fee of €25 plus possible return shipping.
In any case, you will receive a transparent professional assessment and then decide for yourself how to proceed.
Frequently asked questions about tubular motor diagnosis
Do I have to call before each submission?
No. Many motors can be sent in directly. However, if the error patterns are unclear or unusual, a telephone consultation is recommended.When does the fault-diagnosis guarantee apply?
The promise applies after prior agreement if repairability is to be tested.What happens in the event of a total loss?
If a repair is not worthwhile, you will only be charged the fault-diagnosis fee of €25 plus possible return shipping.Adjustment and reset cable rental for motors
Resetting a tubular motor and setting the limit positions – optional adjustment cable rental
To restore the factory settings or readjust the limit positions, many 230 V tubular motors may require an adjustment cable. This is particularly useful when the reset sequence has to be activated at the circuit breaker (fuse) and the motor is neither visible nor within hearing distance.
Many drives confirm the reset with a clicking sound or a brief movement of the motor. A universal adjustment and reset cable available for rental lets you carry out commissioning or resetting in a more controlled manner without repeatedly moving between the motor and the fuse box.
The rental cable is not included with this motor offer, but can be ordered separately from the shop, subject to availability.
