2004 Newmar's use Dometic AC (or heat Pump). You HAVE to replace with a Dometic due to your Wall Tstat system. There are 2 models Newmar used.
1. The regular height Brisk Air(500 series)
2. The Lo Profile Penguin(600 series)
IF you have the Lo Profile Penguin you will have to buy the NEW Penguin and then BUY a 12 button tstat to 5 button tstat control board retrofit kit. ALL new Penguins come with the control package as standard(12 button wall CCC control) which will not work with your existing 5 button wall tstat and other AC unit.
3. IF you have a Brisk Air model, then the existing Control package will work just fine.
4. IF you have a HEAT PUMP Brisk Air, then the existing control package will not work with the Brisk Air without modification of the wiring on the existing control board.
5. Newmar Dometic units are bolted from the TOP with lag bolts and I advise to NOT replace as a DIY if you do not have the experaince on this type install. You also have to ADD a gasket on the bottom of the new unit to separate the intake from the exhaust for the ducting system. Doug
