Center bathroom fan

I recently acquired a 78 Sovereign Land Yacht (not International) with a center bath. I cannot for the life of me find the bathroom fan. There is a switch marked fan next to the hi / lo light switch, but nothing activates when it is turned on. The only vent in the bathroom is the heater vent located under the shower. Is this an option for the 78? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

My bathroom fan is located just in front of the shower pan in the area of the kitchen sink. All curbside. I'm not sure where the vent was installed in the bathroom because my bathroom vanity area was all removed and some of it was lost before I received it.

That fan is one of the few things that worked on my trailer when I bought it. That bathroom fan and the kitchen fan above the range are my trophies.

Fan

H Gary,

I checked under the kitchen sink area and behind the shower pan, but cannot find anything. I noticed there is a square panel attached with screws to the inner wall behind the kitchen sink. I took it off and discovered a large hole about 3'' in diameter cut into the inner wall. Have no idea what this is from.

In my '74, the only fan in the bathroom is a small round one, right beside the throne. There is a toggle switch right above it, so that when one is seated, it's hard to miss.

I leave it to your imagination as to what that fan is meant to do...

Hi Dean,

Here's a picture showing my fan location. The hose lays over the fender and serves the bathroom area from under the vanity. I think the vent is located in the water heater cover. Mine was all removed when I got it. I'm guessing about the vent.
