I fixed my fire place 👍👍👍 I am so happy !!! I found the motor on Amazon. Your video really helped. Thank you so much for posting. I did just take off the back panel and could get to everything. I am so so happy. Yay 😁

Hade Bayaa I’m not sure now of the manufactures name of the unit but I can tell you it’s in my 2007 Forest River cardinal fifth wheel I’m sure they put the same unit in all of those wish I could help you more he was a few years back when I made that video

Where can I get a replacement motor and how much do they cost?

Tom Shropshire. Feboflame made my eclectic fireplace and their replacement motors are around $16.

[@sfjacksmith04]

Tom Shropshire Sorry for the late reply but I just googled the model number and the name of the motor and I think I purchased on Amazon

I sell these motors, 12 V DC 20 RPM motor by Hankscraft. I have them for sale on Ebay and on Amazon through 4 Motors.

Motor from Amazon

Why didn’t you just take off the back. It gives you access to everything. So much easier...

[@Rodfather.]

I couldn’t get to all the components see the back I wanted to check out all the components and the back did not allow you to see everything

[@erinquinn9584]

Where did you find the replacement motor? Mine is a little different than yours. But i called the manufacturer and they don’t sell the motor, you have to buy a whole new unit. I have to take it apart and get the motor out but not sure where to find the replacement. Thank you

[@erinquinn9584]

@@Rodfather. do you think if you did it again you could take off the back? I’m asking because i would prefer just taking off the back piece. I can get to the motor although it’s tight. Not sure if i can take off the panel below it, ill have to check.

[@Rodfather.]

@@erinquinn9584 I’m usually pretty thorough when I making a repair on anything, and there must’ve been a good reason why I couldn’t just remove the back to get it done I don’t remember but I guess when you get in there make your own decision

[@erinquinn9584]

@@Rodfather. can you tell me how you found your motor. Where did you buy it?
