It turns out that the gasket is in place so that's not the issue. but i can confirm that there is about 3/4" of movement possible on the far corner from where the hinge is located when the fan is completely closed tight. This is what is able to vibrate with the wind and traveling at highway speeds.
I'm really surprised to hear that no one else has this issue.
I'm not sure there is any room to add the additional cover as suggested since there are solar panels on either side of the fan mounting. Unless the the cover fits, right on top of the white plastic fan mount area.
I too have an annoying vibration in the fan when traveling, and I agree the arm to raise and lower the lid is sloppy and flimsy. I have had several RV’s previously and not experienced this problem. My Rv is a recent purchase and I will be attempting to resolve this issue. Thanks for being the subject to attention…
It is a Fantastic Fan ultra breeze.
I spent about $38 7 years ago.
I has remained in great shape in the arizona sun and ozone
mounting is 4 studs are attached to the vent frame, the cover goes over the top, then washers over the studs and spring clips through holes in the studs
I did mine at the same time as i was resealing penetrations in the roof and had removed the vent so that I could stand on a stool and work on the roof through that hole. I then resealed/reinstalled the vent and put the cover on then
( this has been updated as I confirmed the make/model/cost)
