    Replace Dometic 3316410.xxx with Honeywell RTH2300B, suggestions/tips please

    Hi Actually 12 volts is used for the furnace and a/c. From what I can tell by all the posts 12 volts powers a relay for the a/c to turn on the 120 volts. The battery is used by the thermostat. You do not have to add a switch but tha a/c will run the fan only on high speed. Green wire is high...

    I did the same model in our prowler. I still have not been able to get the air cond fan to run on low speed.

    Refrigerator fan motors

    My mistake it is 120 volt Refrig.you can still short across terminal on Snap Switch or use a volt meter. You should get power to at least one side. I,m not sure if there is a inline fuse or not.

    Refrigerator fan motors

    You can short across the terminals on snap switches with any wire or paper clip. Yes they are also called Snap Switches !!! It should only be 12 volts. Or use a volt meter.The fans are easy to get many online sellers or they are basically computer fans.Also check wires from fans, on our new...
