Newbie qustion.  In my bay with the aux air pump and many other electrical components there is a small electric exhaust fan.  It is running non stop.  Coach is inside our storage building plugged into 50 amp power...

Should I be concerned?

Thank you,
Don

If the same as mine, the temp that fan runs at is adjustable.  A junction box on the ceiling has a cover, with a adjustable switch inside of it.

***** Warning: The wires are hot (110 volt power ) under that cover, to include when the inverter is on and you are unplugged from shore power and gen not running. 

Is it hot in the bay where the fan and cover are located?

Mine comes on around 90 deg.

Thermostat was set for 90 degrees.  I adjusted it up.  Thank you for the help.
