Has anyone had any luck finding a replacement fan for the sidewall kitchen vent. Presently looking for one for a 56FC.
Thanks !

I bought this one . . . had to modify it significantly to fit in 1-1/2" wall . . . or you can build a "collar" like they suggest

Thanks for the info ! I should have said fan motor... But buying that whole fan and just using the motor would be a lot cheaper than having the existing motor rebuilt .

Search Google "ventline rv sidewall exhaust fan". Ventline has a pretty good line of assembled units. Don't know if they sell the motor separately. When I looked at their site, the entire assembly wasn't that badly priced. Maybe use the motor out of their unit. Good luck.

56 Flyg Cld- I don't see you on the "Captain Jones Flying Cloud Registry". If you give me your VIN I will enter it on the list. You can access all FCs on the list by going to his thread. Thanks

Sorry 56, you are correct and we had added you earlier. When my mind is wrapped up in plumbing grey water tanks, I tend to forget other things. Good luck on the fan motor.

Replaced motor

I replaced mine with one from Amazon:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Same blade diameter but slightly longer shaft so I offset the interior guard slightly.
