Its for the Rear ceiling fan.
Next to the overhead lights right?
Of note the ceiling fan chain will wrap around the ceiling fan blade. Not good for the motor

Also, that switch and fan get their power from the GFI circuit, or at least in my 2017 it did. If the fans not working, reset the GFI outlet.

With my North Point, the fan chain always wrapped around one of the blades when traveling. When I got my Pinnacle I put shock absorbers on it and that chain has not wrapped around the blades after 5,000 miles. A little off topic, but if shocks can stop a little chain that weighs less than an ounce from bouncing around, just think of everything else they are protecting!

We put one of those decorative knobs for the chain end. Stopped the wrap up.

I need some shocks myself. I got tired of fixing that chain, that fan must of bounced around so much that one of the blade screws fell out and I can't locate. So have not been able to even use it.

Mine was laying on the floor near kitchen slideout. Put lock-tite on all of them so they shouldn't come loose again.

Has anyone thought of replacing that ceiling fan with a MaxxAir or Fantastic fan?

I took a piece of Velcro tape and wrapped t around the pull on the chain. The other small piece of Velcro is attached to the bottom of the fan. Has not moved for the last 3k miles.
