That is the same package of controls I have on my Workhorse.. I too suspect Chevy. But no guarantees there.

Check on eBay, I found one for my '98 Gulf Stream Spartan chassis. It was made by Evans, but they told me it was also used in '80's Dodge Trucks. I looked at a few and found this one that matches your knobs and settings, but the bezel is different.

This is the link to Evans Tempcon.
Evans Tempcon, Inc This looks like yours.
They don't sell retail. I was directed to contact a distributer. I called the one recommended in Grand Rapids, VERY unhelpful. Mine, even though listed on Evans website, was 'discontinued' and if he had it, it would be $700! I tried to contact a second distributer in California, never heard a reply. I recontacted Evans and was directed to a Mopar dealer since it was used in Dodges. Instead I found it on eBay for $25 and free shipping! I'm back heatin' and coolin'!

Evans told me mine was Mopar P/N 55036774. It is different than yours, mine was Evans Evans Tempcon, Inc.

You'll have to check what you have and see if it has a cable or not, I noticed two panels that look the same, but one with cable, one without.

At this point I guess I'd contact Winnebago to find out origin of the panel. That should give you a starting point to find what other manufacturers used that panel. Then you can find a salvage part on Ebay or elsewhere. I personally try to avoid the dealer's parts dept. I always feel I'm subsidizing someone's boat payment when I buy there.

Here is a link to the Winnebago service tip dealing with the dash AC units.
It appears SCS/Frigette is still in business

Looking at grtharris's link, Winnebago identifies it as scs/fridgette 093-0554. Going to scs/fridgette website, I don't see that part number, but almost every one of their dash control units is identified as a Ford part. If you have the control out of the dash, I'd try to find a match at a Ford parts counter. From there, you'll know which years/models used that control and can perhaps get on eBay or other source.

It's Evens. Go here for documentation. Start with the Owners Manual.

Jimmyjnr, I did a little more research. On the parts diagram for your coach the part numbers are:
Winnebago no. 103930-33-702
SCS no. 083-0169
SCS does show this one in there replacement parts. It is called a SCS Compact Control.
Good Luck!
