If your East Seventeen 12V RV Ceiling Fan # 344410TSDC42BNWH does not go in reverse, the issue will likely be the switch, but there would be no way to know for sure without testing it with a circuit tester.

What you will want to do is use a circuit tester for the wires right behind the switch, and if you aren't seeing a function, you would want to replace the switch with the Replacement Wall Switch for LaSalle Bristol Reversible 12V RV Ceiling Fans - White # 344410TSSW12V.

I have added a link below to a video review for you to check out as well of the switch if you'd like to take a look.
