Range Hood Exhaust Fan

[herbrick]

I have a 95 Dodge Roadtrek Versatile. The small metal damper control on the Ventline exhaust fan has fallen off and even though it must be very simple to put it back I just cannot figure it out. Anyone have a pic showing how it goes back together? Thanks for any help

You might have a look here, if you haven't already.

If nothing looks familiar, you might try their "contact" form and ask for a pic
or some instructions.

Good luck.

Thanks Mike, I did email the company a week or so ago but no reply so far. The problem is that having recently purchased the vehicle I had never used the fan damper so have no clue where it came from. Lost it while driving on the gravel road to Pachena Bay on the west coast of Vancouver Island-bit bumpy to say the least!

Well, maybe someone will spot this thread that has a '95 RT 190V, and give you some help.
I know of a '95 190P near me, although I haven't seen it for a bit.
If I'm over there, I'll see if the owner will let me have a quick look.
It's probably the same range hood fan assembly.
Or,
Alternately, you could email service@roadtrek.com and see if they could
send you a close up of the area in question, or just how to put it back together.
When emailing Roadtrek service, always include your VIN number. Helps them
to figure out exactly what your van originally came with.

Here's a link to the official RT website "brochure" page. Maybe there's a pic in your
year's brochure that will help?

Or, another idea might be google your year and model, then call/email some current owners
who have 1995 190V's for sale, and maybe someone will have pictures, or will tell you
how it goes back on. If it fell off for you, it may have for someone else too.
Many, if not all RVers, tend to be very helpful.

You could join RVNet and ask on their class B forum area.

Good luck (again).
Mike.
p.s. I've actually done all of these things at one time or another.

Had a RT same as mine pull in to a gas station behind me. Owners let me take a peek inside so I could figure out how the piece went back in. Here is a pic in case anyone else ever runs in to this problem.

Congratulations.
I'd still have a tough time figuring it out, even with the picture.
