Hello Lee, thanks for reaching out. If air won't go in at all it could be a bad/clogged valve. You could also have a major leak somewhere. Have you tried a soap test to see if there are any leaks?
You did indeed see a video showing how to replace the vent lid #BVD0449-A01. I have linked that video for you here as well. IT was one that I made a while back and that is probably where you saw it.

WOW! I am impressed! I called to place my order and real person answered, spoke perfect English, albeit a slight southern accent, and my order was sent within a day, shipped quickly and I had it a few days later. I saved over a hundred dollars over local and installed it my self. I cant imagine how that they could do any better. THANKS!
Swap brittle plastic for metal to keep your RV vents and fans working through harsh sun and constant use. Choose aluminum to avoid rust or black steel for a tougher look, with options like 2-way pop-up vents and solid exterior exhausts. Match hinge styles for covers, know some registers are open only, and if you'll drive with a vent opened forward, a strong steel structure is recommended.
Yes, metal replacements are sturdy and seal well, and they've replaced cracked plastic without fuss. Verify size for a clean fit. If you want airflow control, check that the register includes a damper—some are fixed and stay open. Metal construction can include all-aluminum options and interior trim rings for a finished look.
Yes, they can improve positive airflow at slow speeds and help keep most dust out. Don't expect the same result with a strong tailwind or when driving around 50 mph. Face the vent appropriately for intake and verify your mounting surface is sturdy if using it open while driving.
Aluminum helps prevent rust, while steel is a solid, durable option. Both metal styles hold up better than plastic. If you plan to run them open while driving, confirm your trailer has a strong mounting surface; a steel structure is preferred over fiberglass. There isn't a speed rating to rely on. Two-way designs let you open in either direction, and an interior garnish can finish the look.
Make a template before cutting; a gasket can work as a guide. Match the hinge style if replacing only the cover so it actually fits. Consider a tighter screen to deter wasps and mud daubers. Avoid taking the mechanism apart—the spring tension can pinch. Confirm you have the hardware and finish you want, since color-matched screws may not be included.
