Vent fan

We just got a fan for the roof vent for the rv. Where doeseverone tap in for power? The nearest light or run wire to battery.

Depends. May be the roof opening is pre-wired for a fan. Most likely not, so getting a wire to the nearest light is a possibility. Having done it, be prepared for a fun day.

Eric, just remember that if the light is turned on with a wall switch that it would have to be on for the fan to work!

Nosticks , I doubt a 31 year old rv is prewired😊 for a fan. Mshappy thanks for the reminder about the wall switch 👍
