There is a 12V light near (30 inches) the vent which is not on a switch (push button on the light), how would I splice into it? How do these lights detach?
Is there special tools or techniques to snake wires in the RV ceilings? I assume there is a “space” between the outside roof and the inside roof? Do you have to take the inside roof off to do the wiring?
Like people said, remove the trim and look for wires. They don't always pre-wire it for fans but you might see the lights wires nearby. I didn't see any conduits or hidden boxes in my Thor Dutchmen, only wire nuts. If wires are too far, try pulling them close enough to work - carefully, without ripping them off the wire nuts.
Lights are attached with a few tapping screws in ceiling plywood, take the lens off and you will see. In the worst case, and if the trailer is old enough to not worry about appearances, just run the wire from lights to fan along the ceiling on the outside, i.e. not hidden in the ceiling, paint it white and let it be.
