Both of our Fan-Tastic fans started making an irritating chirping noise. Both about a year and 2 months in use. I contacted Fan-Tastic vent company with my concerns. They replied very quickly (email) and asked where I wanted the new motor/fan assemblies shipped. I received them yesterday and installed them today. It was about a 10 minute job for the 1st one and less time for the 2nd one. I made a short video of the replacement procedure. Go here if you are interested. Thanks for the great support Fan-Tastic Vent.

Bravo!

Everything looked real easy except for that last wire hold down clip.

Makes you feel good to get er done yourself and have the comfort of knowing it was done right.

Liked the double-time setup video also.

We met another couple at the winnebago factory with the same names also. The weird thing was they had the same coach with the same colors and the same address in South Dakota!

The wire clip was a bit tricky, it wouldn't seat itself but finally gave in.

Thanks
Jim
