Exhaust fans

I have a 2020 Montana high country and the exhaust fans won’t open or work. The one in the kitchen stopped working at the same time as the bathroom. Both have power. I can roll it up manually but the fans still won’t work

We're you able to find a solution? Neither one of the fans will open. They have power, start to open, then close. Fan won't go on. Ideas?

Maybe the lids are 'stuck' and wont' allow it to open. So I would guess the fan won't run because the lid isn't opened.
If the lid is stuck, you may have to go on the roof and lift it up. Then the rubber seals should be cleaned and treated with silicone spray (or something else?).

If it appears to "try" to open, but then stops and will not continue, it could be the rain sensor is wet or defective. You may need to manually open it and dry things out. Mine will open slightly, then close and stop if it is wet.
The fan will still run with the cover closed though. Not really helpful like that, but it does run with the cover closed.

I agree with RMcNeal. Probably wet rain sensors.
