  • Wire to tap into for outside fan for Dometic RM1350SLMX refrigerator

    Like many have done, I plan on installing fans on my outside vents to move more air in order to maintain refrigerator temps. I have a Dometic RM1350SLMX. I'm looking to cut down on investigation time and see if anyone has a good idea on what wire to tap into for this? Either a continuously hot wire in that area or one that turns on with the fridge? The latter would be my preference. Thanks in advance for sharing your expertise!

    You can find power. First place is at the bottom - look for a white block. It should have constant 12V power. However what I did was wire my fans to come on with the stock fan, At the top of the fridge you will find a set of cooling fins. On the far right is a thermostat. Front connection should be constant hot. I wired to the rear so when the thermostat closes to fire the stock fan my Aux fans cone on.

      For another option, I wired mine in at the bottom t-block that Yoda alluded to. The reason for this was those little disc t-stats have failed on me before. So I wanted a separate control for the aux fans. You can then buy/attach/wire into an attic fan variable temp setting controller.
