I'll have Sweet Wife lend a hand. And as for the rumor that RV's come with vents pre-wired for fans... hogwash! Did a little pre-exploratory this evening and found no such wiring in my 5th wheel. Now the roof on mine is a Styrofoam sandwich affair so YMMV. Other roofs may be wired. So I tunneled about 24 inches to the nearest light fixture through the Styrofoam. The only thing that bugs me is this fixture is the one that you can control from a wall switch by the door. I'd prefer an unswitched circuit, but who knows there may be advantages to that.

If anyone asks, the white wire is positive and the blue negative.

Rural South Carolina can be very nice. Hopefully your wife will recover quickly. What town are you near?
