I have a 2004 Keystone Springdale. I just bought it used and it has a few little things that I need to repair.

All of which I have taken care of but the fan in the bathroom is being a pain. The motor works fine but I can't seem to find a fan that will fit it. All the replacement fans have a larger diameter hole in them.

Do you guys know of a good place to buy parts that will actually fit. The local RV store has no clue and they say they are a keystone dealer. Seems like every part I buy from them don't fit it.

You might want to check this place out. I know they have a couple of buildings and sometimes have used parts for older trailers. If you don't find what you are looking for on their web site I would try giving them a call. I hope this helps you out.

The vent manufacturer's name and model # should be on the inside of the curb somewhere. It is most likely a Ventline product. http://www.americanrvcompany.com/Ventline-Parts_c_200.html Might have what you need. Good luck, Hank

I had my vent fan blades destroy themselves during our last trip and bought a replacement fan at a local dealership. It too had the larger diameter hole for the motor shaft.

I made it fit by taking a 1/8 inch roll pin cut to length and modifying it. I forced the roll pin open (to fit the smaller diameter motor shaft), and then ground down the open split of the pin with my bench grinder.

With some fiddling I got the roll pin onto the motor shaft and forced the new fan blade onto it.

Its worked perfectly ever since.
