Aliner roof vent question

We own a 2003 Aliner Scout, and love it. But I had a recent problem with one of our 2 crank up vents on the roof. While driving down the highway we noticed the front of the lid had lifted slightly from the wind. Is there a latch, or has someone had the same problem and found a way to secure them down.
I appreciate any advice or help I may receive. Thanks!

Yes, I had an Aliner once. Same problem. There is a knob next to the crank, turn the knob about 90 degrees (IIRC) and it locks the lid down.

Re: Aliner Vent

I gave up on that locking knob on the Fantastic fan and stretched a bundgie cord over the top of the roof to hold it down when I had an ALiner.

Thank you for your suggestion, I appreciate your input. I'm going to check and see if mine has that knob.
