Ah ha! Appreciate everyone's replies - Howard's was the key. I found
that thermostat exactly where you said it would be and traced the
wires. They went into a wiring loom, but came right down and were
hiding amongst some others, disconnected and taped up. I put a big DC
fan in there blowing air out the access panel, and now my fan switch
in the coach works just like it's supposed to.

Huge thank you to all! This was much, much easier than trying to trace
the wires from the fan switch back through the coach, which is what
I'd have had to do without this list. You folks are one of the big
reasons I bought a Wanderlodge. So glad to have this community
support.
