Video Transcript for Review of Maxxair RV Vent and Fan Parts - Replacement Lift Motor - MA10-20270

Ellen: Hey, everybody. I'm Ellen here etrailer.com and we're going to be taking a quick look at the replacement lift motor for your MaxxFan Plus roof vent. So if something's happened with that roof vent, it's gotten damaged, or it's just not working anymore, but you don't want to replace the whole thing. Everything else is working just fine. This is a way to keep that fan working for many more years without having to take out that whole unit and replace it with a completely new fan unit system. So let's take a closer look and make sure it's the right fit.

Just has this little plug that goes into the connection to the rest of the fan. And we'll have our two arms to connect into those mechanisms to lift and lower that vent lid. Works with several different models of fans. The list of those is on our product page here at etrailer.com so you can check with that to make sure that yours is a match for it. And this will be for obviously the electric fans, not the manual.It does not come with any mounting hardware so you will need to reuse the mounting hardware from the original to get this in place.

But that's really about all there is to it for our look at the replacement lift motor for your MaxxFan Plus roof vent. Hope this video's been helpful in deciding if this is the right part for you. We do have a lot of other replacement parts available here at etrailer.com and we also do have new fan units as well. So if you need to go down that road, we got you covered. Thanks for watching..

Replaces the lift motor needed to open your MaxxFan Plus roof vent.

Well they are replacement parts, So there's not much to say about them except I'm Glad there was a "used" option for 1 of the items to help with the cost. My disappointment is with the MaxxAir fan that REQUIRED these parts after only just over 2 years with LOW use hours! MaxxAir really needs a better warranty for such a (supposedly) top of the line fan with a Top Price to go along with it! Or maybe offer the parts at a lower price point! I struggled with the decision of buying the parts or just getting a whole new fan! I opted for the parts ONLY because of the extra work it would have been to remove the calking & mounting bracket stuff. As it was I still had to do some pretty involved disassembly & R&R work to replace BOTH a bad lift motor AND broken ( Pot metal) Operator Mechanism!!! NOT impressed with my Maxxair roof vent AT ALL!!!!



by:

This lift motor is just about dead and struggles to lift the cover every time we use the vent. Not sure if we got a bad one or if these motors are just junk. I guess they only last about a year and now I've got to think about purchasing another motor or just using the vent manually....



by:

Old gearbox locked up. This gearbox boltin placeand works well.



by:

The motor is exactly what I ordered and replaced the old one but my fan still doesn't
Work. I must have an electrical issue. I'll keep this one as a backup tho.

The package arrived ahead of schedule and I am pleased with that. We are full time RV'ers
and will come to this site as something else needs to be replaced.



by:

I received it three days after I placed the order. Had it installed in less than 30 minutes. The tricky part is matching the small aluminum sleeve to the two splined shafts for a proper fit.



by:

Thanks for the update and nice comments.
You
companies service has been great.

I bought a operator mechanism last year thru Amazon and other supplier.
It failed after 2 weeks but I didn't install it till 30days had passed and my claim was refused.
Reading reviews these units seem to be very unreliable.

I chose ETrailer re stock, price and the 60 day term hoping it might be made better.

I went on the roof to install my 1st order from you and found it looked the same.
I couldn't see a problem with the one I had. Installed yours and guess what, it wouldn't work either.
My neighbor has lots of experience with these fans.
Explained how the motor works and how high voltage (friction) is how it stops.

My knob has been very tight to move manually.
So it turns out my 2013 motor is the issue. He had a spare and loaned it to me and everything now works the way it should and the knob and gears are easy to turn.
My second order is to replace his and I will now have a spare for my second fan that will be a 2013 original.
10 years life on the 7500 Deluxe unit isn't something I'll complain about.

Thought this might be of interest to you.



by:

The parts returned my Maxxfan to fully operational.

Great service

Thank e trailer !

Was an easy installation and has not failed to operate when turned on. Seem to have been accurately represented. This would be my go to company for any future part needs.

I think the replacement motor did the trick, now the vent cover opens and closes the way it was designed.

Exactly what we needed. Perfect fit.

Installed easily! Great job!

perfect fit; quick ship



by:

Excellent service!

Worked good



by:

Part worked perfectly



by:

My husband and myself installed this ourselves and went exactly as planned and continues to work well one year later. Glad we couldn’t find someone to do this for us. Would have cost us so much more because they wanted to replace the whole A/C unit!



by:

Very fast delivery and very knowledgeable of product.They email you product is shipped and when it arrives at is destination !!!!!!!! Great services!!!!!!!!!!!



by:

As usual service from e trailer is top notch. Have not installed new part as of yet.

  • Maxxfan 7000K Not Lifting With Remote Controller
    There's a few reasons why this could be happening to your MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan, Thermostat, and Remote - Powered Lift - 10 Speed - Smoke Item # MA00-07500K: First ensure that the remote has good batteries in it and is functioning properly with the other buttons. If not then you'll need a replacement remote # MA00A01150K The remote sends an infrared signal to the sensor in the fan. If it's not getting a clear enough view to the sensor that could cause it to not work. The...

  • Replacement Circuit Board and Lift Motor For a MaxxAir 4751KS Vent Fan
    You will need to test the wiring to determine if the Lift Motor # MA10-20270 is getting power when you press the remote. This will help you determine if the motor is bad or the Printed Circuit Board # MA10A04751KS on your MaxxAir fan. A Test Light # PTW2993 will allow you to check the wiring without having to disconnect the wiring.

  • Troubleshooting MaxxFan 4700 Series, 4700K
    You reported that you cannot use the remote on your MaxxFan 4700K to put the vent cover up and down. Let's troubleshoot. Put some new batteries in your remote. Ensure that the display comes on. Verify if your vent cover now works. Verify if other remote functions work. If it is not your remote we can consider the following service parts. First let's perform a reset. Disconnect the 12volt power source from the fan circuit board for two minutes then reconnect and test again. Many times...

  • Replacing Fan Motor on Trailer Vent with MA10-20270
    I checked with the manufacturer and the tiny screw you're seeing is a set screw. You will use an Allen wrench/key to remove this. I'm attaching a picture with a set of installation instructions for you to refer to when you're replacing the MaxxFan Lift Motor # MA10-20270 . We don't have the new/updated instructions available, but where it refers to a nut holding the blades on to the motor shaft, this is now a set screw like you're seeing. All of the other steps will remain the same.

  • Troubleshooting MaxxAir MaxxFan 4951 Motor Will Not Run
    The first thing I would check on your MaxxAir MaxxFan 4951 is the power. It is possible the motor is not getting enough or any power which would explain the issue. You can check the 12V power using a multimeter like the # PT89ZR. Assuming the power checks out I would say that the motor is bad. The correct replacement motor is the Replacement Lift Motor for Maxx Fan Plus Roof Vent # MA10-20270.

  • Troubleshooting MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vent 7500K That Wont Open
    The MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vent, # MA00-07500K probably has a faulty operator mechanism or lift motor. The correct replacement part number for Replacement Operator Mechanism for MaxxAir MaxxFan, is # MA10-20281K-1AF. The Replacement Lift Motor for Maxx Fan Plus Roof Vent is # MA10-20270. You need to determine if the motor is functional or the operator mechanism is at fault. Disconnect and look for physical damage to the operator mechanism and try to function manually.

  • Solution for MaxxFan Roof Lid that Stopped Opening with Switch
    Sounds like the lift motor needs to be replaced as it's no longer able to raise the vent lid. For that you'd want the part # MA10-20270. Since you are able to lift the lid manually it wouldn't be the operator. If this were the problem it would either make noise like you mentioned or wouldn't allow you to manually lift it.

  • Troubleshooting MaxxFan 4951KS Leaking Lubricant
    Based on what you are describing it sounds like this is coming from the motor. There wouldn't be anything that would leak out of the operator mechanism. I recommend wiping it up and keeping an eye on it to see if you can better identify where this is coming from. If it is the motor, we have the Replacement Lift Motor for Maxx Fan Plus Roof Vent # MA10-20270 available as a replacement part. Depending on the age of the fan you may also want to consider replacement the entire fan with something...

  • Replacement Fan Motor for a MaxxFan 4951KS On a 2021 Grand Design Reflection
    I spoke with MaxxFan and they said that is a fan motor causing the problem. The fan motor has an internal amperage short so when you increase speeds, the motor amperage is higher and the circuit board will close the lid and stop the fan. So all you're going to need to do is to replace your lift motor with the Replacement Lift Motor for Maxx Fan Plus Roof Vent # MA10-20270.

  • Troubleshooting A Maxxair Fan 3540K Automatic That Won't Stop After Closing Lid
    I spoke with the manufacturer and based on your issue the gears are most likely stripped out and can't sense that its reached the end so you'll need the Replacement Lift Motor for Maxx Fan Plus Roof Vent # MA10-20270. If this doesn't solve your issue then the next step would be to replace the circuit board with the Replacement Printed Circuit Board for MaxxAir Powered Lift RV Roof Vents w/ Reversible Fan # MA10A21275K.

  • Replacement Parts For a MaxxAir MaxxFan Deluxe 8951K
    We do not carry an exact replacement unit for the MaxxAir Deluxe 8951K. We have the Smoke # MA00-07500K or White # MA00-07000K which would be the closest replacement. These fans use the same lift and fan motors but the control panels and circuit boards are going to be different so you would not be able to swap all the parts. Here are the replacement parts for your fan if you want to try changing out certain components. Also be sure to first check the power going to the fan as if the voltage...

    It sounds like you could be referring to either Replacement Operator Mechanism part # MA10-20281K-1AF or Replacement Lift Arm part # MA10-20222KS which are both fits for a MaxxAir 7000K Roof Vent Fan. If you need a different part let me know but these are all that's available for the lifting mechanisms aside from the Replacement Lift Motor part # MA10-20270.

  • Lid Won't Open on MaxxFan 7500K Deluxe Roof Vent Fan
    If the lid no longer opens or closes even when using the manual knob then that means the operator mechanism is bad which is rather common to have to replace. The part you'll need for this is the Replacement Operator Mechanism for MaxxAir MaxxFan Plus or MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vents part # MA10-20281K-1AF. If the lid no longer opens with the controls then that could mean either a bad operator mechanism or a bad lift motor and in which case you'd need the 10-20270 part # MA10-20270. I don't...

  • Help Opening Vent Lid On MaxxAir Roof Vent Fan After Removing Lift Motor
    It sounds like your Operator Mechanism # MA10-20281K-1AF is not allowing you to open the vent lid after you removed the motor. As you have removed the Motor # MA10-20270 you can try to stick a screw driver up into the gear on the operator mechanism to turn it manually and raise your vent lid. This may be a 2 person job to provide slight pressure opening the vent lid while someone else turns a screw driver in the mechanism. A flat head as close to the size of the gear on the motor is going...

  • Trouble Removing the MaxxAir MaxxFan Lift Motor From Roof Vent
    I think you may have missed a screw as there are 3 screws which hold the Lift Motor # MA10-20270 in place on your MaxxAir MaxxFan. With all 3 screws removed the motor should fall out fairly easily. Be sure you are removing the mounting screws and not the screws which hold the case together as there are also 3 of those.
