Dino,

You said replaced, so that implies that there were already 12V wires to the original fan. This raises the question as to why CW didn't just use the same wires. Or... is this a Thor problem with installing wiring wrong and tying the fan into a lighting circuit - as dumb as this is, its well within their capabilities, even with prefabbed wiring harnesses (or it could be a bad harness).

Also I'd be looking at the Dicor sealing on the roof. If they messed up the wiring, I can image what a poor job CW could achieve on the roof seals.

I found a fairly large crack in the Dicor on my bathroom vent when I was up there cleaning the roof. I was installing solar too, so I had a roll of Eternabond tape which I used to cover the cracked area. Plan is to install a remote controlled fan in place of the manual fan in the living area and move the original fan to the bathroom to replace the really, really cheap fan they used in there. I did a fan replacement on our old trailer and the hardest part of the job was peeling up the old Dicor. Replaced fans will get Eternabond.
