Ken, I gave my spare motor to someone here or on facebook a year or two ago. I do still have the fan blade and you are welcome to it. PM me an address.
I have fan blades. What I need are good motors. The ones I have taken apart have been loaded with rust and usually have shorted windings. I assume this happens from people having cracked covers or maybe from leaving them open in the rain. I know on the ones I get going I will drill a little weep hole in the lowest part of the motor before reinstalling. This way if they ever get water in the motor again it will have a way put.
This particular coach is a 1978 and has the bath module designed for a 14x14 Hammond vent. It is not like mine and earlier models that have 6" or so round vent. I smoked one motor trying to repair it and I have an second one in the front vent position that is running slow I have not touched the front one because I am afraid of what I will find and maybe smoke it too.
Someone else asked in another posting if the Hammond Vent is the one with the two handles. The answer is YES.
I also had two spare motors that I gave away to someone in the past. I never dreamed, at the time, that I would need them myself.
