I did a search for Dometic kit number and got lots of hits. You will just have to go through the list to see if all are out of stock. I bought one from Adventure RV years ago.

They don't show it's out of stock.


When I bought the kit it included the small rubber isolation mount pads. Mine were wore out causing the fan blade to hit, so you might be better off buying the kit.

I ordered from them they took my money then said they were back ordered.Now i am waiting for my refund. Just because you do a search and they show up doesnt mean they have them. I know how to search. What i am saying is there is a shortage of such parts.

Take the old motor to an electrical supply store and request a new motor. They have the means to cross-reference mfgr's numbers, including mounting style and other vital information. The nameplate on the motor must be legible.

Agreed. Many of AO Smith use an OEM type # system that OEM manufactures get the big mark up. A small motor shop used to cross reference these for us. Some of the motors had multi mount and a bushing to increase shaft size I never remember needing a bushing. I have cut shafts shorter. A home owner friendly HVAC supply co. may help you out, others only supply licensed repairman so don't get offended.
