My dash climate control unit stopped working. Nothing works, no fan speeds, no a/c, no heat, etc. After having it checked by a Jayco RV dealer, who told me it was a Ford issue, then having it hoked up to a computer at the Ford shop and finding that everything this is working on their end and being told the system's Control Panel must have gone bad, as they could override the Control Panel and run the system with all components working just fine, I contacted Jayco. Jayco informed me that that particular part was manufactured by Pro Air, formally Evans, and that company is no longer in business. I was told they no longer have that part available and I would have to try and find it from a third party vendor. I requested the Jayco part number and the manufacturer's part number. I was told the part was titled: AC Control Panel and the Jayco Part number was: 0265484, and the manufacturer part number was: RV213845. Next, I called several Jayco dealers only to learn I was out of luck, as they don't have that part and can not get it as the company is no longer in business. So, I then starting searching on he internet. As a result, I came across several companies (VisOne, Mill Supply, Inc., Johnny's Radiator and More, Acmeparts.com, and FindItParts) that deal in used and or hard to find vehicle AC and or RV parts. FindItParts told me they don't have this part, tow other companies had me send them pictures of the panel and will get back to me, and the other two I left a message for and I'm waiting for their return call.
It is very frustrating that Jayco does not provide any assistance in finding this part, and I assume any part, when a manufacturer goes out of business. Especially when a their product is only 3 years old.
Can anyone out their on this forum help be secure this needed part?
