Hi,
I have a 2006 52’ Sedan Bridge and would like to know how to access the blower for both the master and guest head vent fan. I have looked around the adjacent staterooms but do not see an access panel in the location of the vent.
Thank you,
Ralph
 
Howdy, welcome to the cult. I can’t really help ‘cause I could never afford a beauty that big, lol. Is it possible they are in-line, with the blower accessible behind the plastic grate cover?
 
I've replaced the blower in the guest head. Access to it requires the removal of the vanity upper cabinet.
I suspect the same for the master head.
 
I can take a picture of the Guest Head access hole that was cut into my cabinet. Not sure if that is easier than removing the cabinet as Tom suggested.

As far as the master head fan I believe it shares the fan motor with the galley stove and it is behind the left side of the galley refrigerator off towards the front of the boat behind the cabinets.

I have that same access panel in the side of the cabinet and you can reach in and feel the blower and actually see a part of it but no way to change it from that. I tried.

On my boat the kitchen hood fan and discharge (clamshell) outside of the boat is different from the head fan and discharge.

Looks like the PO cut a access into the back of the cabinet on mine.

You are right about the exhaust fan for the Master Head. There are two separate fans for the Galley and the Head.
 
Thank you. If you get a chance to take and post a picture of the access hole that would be helpful.

Previous Owner cut a second access hole in the back of the cabinet. He didn't do a nice job of it however we keep towels tucked in there so I never see it... another thing to do...

Sheesh - four screws and fish one power receptacle out and the cabinet comes right off. Looks like he took the hard road.
