As I finally get around to finishing up details on our 78 EII, I'm working on the new exhaust fan in the bathroom. I purchased a Maxxair 00-05100K model and have it installed and all caulked in place and now that I hook up the wiring, I find it doesn't work! I've checked power and ground and no issues there. And if I ohm the fan, I get a reasonable number for a DC fan (can't remember the value right now) so there is a complete circuit.
I want to get to the backside of the controls to troubleshoot but don't see how to access them. Does anyone know how it comes apart?

They are designed to have the fan and motor drop down by removing some
screws.
Should you have any issue with warranty, we can assist you as we are a
dealer and in a position to assist.

Thanks Jim, are the screws accessible from the inside? I've looked and don't see any and the trim bezel is not in place. Any pictures or further description would be of great help.

One tip. Fan won't run if vent is closed.

The lid was open but according to the product description, it will run open or closed.
