Can I swap out my POS Dometic Thermostat with a simple household thermostat?

Not if it is digital.

Post the model number or a picture.

Why not? I have replaced 2 analogs with digitalis in two trailers

The wiring and communication is different on the new units.

cavie, Did your thermostat look like this?


These old and obsolete thermostats can be easily converted to a home unit.

When I say "digital" I mean the communication with the control box... not the LCD display.
