Recon second ac wiring location

I found 12v wire for a vent fan but now 110v wires.

can you folks help me I'd like to use my.new a.c. before we head to the lake next weekend.

I have instralled a second a.c. in the vent of my bedroom. I have a '07 recon ZX F36V. I can't find my 110v power wires. I've looked all around the vent opening, in the closest in the front of the room and no blank sockets or capped wires.

I need help I'd like to use it on my labor day trip next weekend.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

If it's pre-wired the 110 v line would be readily accessible when you remove the trim ring for the vent. Only exception would be if you have a foam roof, you may need to dig into the styrofoam.

it has fiberglass insulation. I've dug around with a 12" wire with a hook on it and can't find it. I have it at my repair shop getting the a.c. fixed and they can't seem to find it either. is it possible they ran the second a.c. wire to the garage?

Probably then.

my rear vent has a factory mounted exhaust fan in the vent of the garage in the rear. I meant to say that earlier

120v should be there if prewired. You're sure it is prewired?

Beds were probably another option. Without knowing your circuit breaker location it's hard to say how easy to get power to the front. I have run extra lines in every unit we've owned. If you can get the wire into the front basement, using "Wire Mold" or similar would allow you to get the power up the wall and across the ceiling.
