Need more information on that fan, Alacran.. Get someone to go up there and get the info off the motor if you can. Double shafted?? 3 speed? Dual voltage? 1/2 inch shaft. Capacitor included?? Probably can find it on GOOGLE if you have some information.. Maybe the Mfg of the A/C unit itself?? I ordered one thru Amazon last year for the A/C unit on a friends 5th wheel A/C unit.. Was exact replacement.. Maybe someone can bring it to you fm San Diego??

Alacran: You might want to contact WAHOO RV in San Jose del Cabo for the motor or other parts if needed. Chuck down there can help you and ship it on the bus to Mulege.

A/C units work with a closed/sealed system. If it needs Freon, you might have a leak somewhere. The professionals have a leak detector, to help not blowing any replacement gases unnecessary into the atmosphere.

I did a Google search and found out "hay no hay fanáticos de autocaravanas registradas en Agua Caliente" but good luck anyway.

Yeah, i might as well install an efficient window unit. Cut a hole in the wall and viola!
