What thermostat do you have now?

This link shows Hunter upgrade but wiring should be same.

Looks to me like it will work.

Although if you are going to run both heat and AC, I can't help you as I've never done that.

As donn stated it needs to be self powered (has batteries) or runs on 12V.

Is there a specific model number, or is it just a 5000?

To use a home type thermostat on your RV HVAC systems you need a self powered or at least capable of operating from 12VDC. Not familiar with that model, so you need to figure it our for yourself. Most common is a Hunter Douglas model that is self powered and available from places like Walmart for around 20 dollars. With the addition of a mini switch you can still retain the two speed AC fan feature.
