Did you ever fix your vent? I own a 2007 48 sundancer and having the same problem. I believe you access the actuator by cutting thru the cauking to carefully remove the panel. But then where do you find the motor ? What did you do >?Thanks you made a good video but mine is recessed into the dash panel so I’m trying to find a way to get into compartment
Capitan Bill. I used WD 40 on the shaft to get it moving after it started moving I coated the shaft with white grease. That was a year ago and have not had another problem with either of the ether of the events.Did you ever fix your vent? I own a 2007 48 sundancer and having the same problem.

I'm getting power to the switch so it is the motor. I know they stick after a 3 month lay over but can't free it. I spayed inside my vent cover with wd 40. I hate to cut into the cover as it will be a long messy ,ugly job.Just an FYI, I thought mine was going down the drain too, but before I bought a new actuator I bought a new control switch and it worked...
I ordered a new vent actuator from Progressive Automations, wired it up and it didn't operate in either direction. The old one worked most of the time, most often when it was warmer weather, so I don't think it's the switch.
I could understand if I'd reversed the two wires and it went the wrong direction but puzzled as to why it wouldn't work.
Any thoughts or suggestions appreciated.
Any one know how to access the recessed vent actuator on a 48 Sundancer?
I'm changing mine this weekend. Thanks for taking the time to make the video. It gave me confidence!Maybe this video will help
EASY JOB! New actuator works like a champ! And it is super quiet.I'm changing mine this weekend. Thanks for taking the time to make the video. It gave me confidence!
