Guys
I just installed a Dometic Ventilator kit, thats what the box calls it, Its a 12v fan thermostat and wiring .
But I have found a few things out while doing it.
1 We have a 150ltr fridge and there's no way I can install it the way they show without pulling the fridge out, and that aint going to happen.
They want you to mount fan between absorption unit and condenser and as near to the absorption unit as possible, just cant get in there through the bottom vent.
So I mounted it to the top vent so it sucks up the heat and blows it out the top vent.
2 I have only a 7 pin plug fitted , the anderson plug is getting fitted this weekend, so jayco ran the 12v from the fridge and piggybacked it to the power pin on the 7 pin plug [ normaly rev lights] which also normaly feeds the the 12v needs inside the van.
the problem is as I see it the 12v side of the fridge will only get power from the car, be it through 7pin or anderson plug, and not from the setec unit.
So if we are connected to 240v and using the setec the fan can not work .
3 The only way I can see the fan working is to connect it directly to the setec unit
