RV Fan Vent K6010-81 Lift Motor for Dometic Fan-Tastic B Series

In this review the RV Fan Vent K6010-81 lift motor is evaluated for owners of Dometic Fan-Tastic B Series roof vents seeking a straightforward replacement motor. The bottom line: this is a practical, weather-ready 17 RPM replacement that fits models 807350 and 803350 and is built to match original equipment performance. It is best for RV owners who need a like-for-like lift motor with tested durability and straightforward electrical work if retrofitting older fans. The review focuses on fit, build quality, and the wiring considerations required when replacing older 7 RPM Autotrol motors.

Key Features

• Complete kit: The package includes one K6010-81 auto-lift motor and four stainless steel mounting screws so the install is ready without extra parts.
• Direct compatibility: Designed to work with Dometic Fan-Tastic B Series models 807350 and 803350 that use 17 RPM motors from 2014 onward for an easy swap.
• Backward replacement: Can replace older K6050-81 and K6050-80 and Autotrol 200-0535A 7 RPM motors after swapping wire connections, allowing older fans to be updated.
• Weather-ready cap: White UV-resistant cap protects internal components, which helps extend motor life in outdoor roof vent conditions.
• Quality testing: Each motor undergoes more than a dozen performance checks for noise, RPM consistency, and lift capacity to match original equipment standards.

Who It's For

The K6010-81 is aimed at RV owners and DIY technicians who have Dometic Fan-Tastic B Series roof vents made from 2014 forward and need a reliable 17 RPM replacement motor that mirrors the original fit and function. It is also useful for RV shops that want a tested, corrosion-resistant replacement part to keep repairs quick.

It is less ideal for users who require the older push/pull feature of some 7 RPM Autotrol motors or who do not want to perform any wiring changes; retrofitting pre-2014 or lower RPM fans requires crossing wires as instructed, so someone uncomfortable with basic electrical swaps should seek professional help or a motor that preserves the original push/pull wiring.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Solid compatibility with Dometic Fan-Tastic B Series models using 17 RPM motors, easing replacement.
• Supplied stainless steel mounting screws reduce corrosion risk at the roof vent attachment points.
• UV-resistant cap and factory performance checks suggest durable, quiet operation comparable to original equipment.
• Works as a retrofit option for older motors when wire connections are swapped, increasing its usefulness.

Cons

• Lacks the original push/pull feature of some older 7 RPM Autotrol motors, so functionality differs unless wiring is modified.
• Retrofit for pre-2014, lower RPM fans requires manual wire crossing, which may be inconvenient for some users.
