You might have to follow the wiring to find any relays. Or call Fleetwood.
You could use a switch and turn on the fan when you want it on. Then as you get near a mountain pass, you can turn it on early. It would save a lot of searching around just to install a new switch and #10 wire to the fan, along with a 30 amp fuse. If you don't want to run a lot of new wiring, then a #14 wire from the dash area to a new fog lamp relay (30 amps +) and then the larger wire from the battery to new relay to the fan. This will also provide more voltage to the fan, due to shorter wire run. Include a 30 amp auto re-set circuit breaker, and measure the amp draw if you can. it might take more than 30 amps?
Sears used to sell a clamp on AC/DC meter. Most clamp on amp meters only measure AC amperage, but this one was a reasonably priced $90 meter that measures DC amperage just by clamping it around the wire, no need to cut into the circuit.

All good ideas, but we will get the original setup working again.
