Ok guys. I need some help.
I have a 2005 Holiday Rambler Navigator with a Roadmaster chassis. The chassis AC is not working. I had it charged, checked for leaks, and the mechanic gave me a little free troubleshooting It seems that the "high pressure side" gets too high. I have no idea what that means, but he said that the fan is not coming on at the condenser. He said it is likely a relay. I have checked everywhere I can think and can't find an AC relay. I found a fuse, but that is fine. Additionally, I have called HR and they were no help. I tried the Roadmaster webpage with no luck.
Any help/ideas where to look is appreciated. I spend over a $1,000 on the information I gave above and can't continue to bleed more while they troubleshoot right now. However, summer is coming and... :-)
Thanks in advance.

Yea, what he said times 10. I don't carry a three inch anymore, even as a spare. I would not be caught without one. I even got a spare for my kit bag to make sure I never have to worry about not having one. I LOVE the thing. Well, as much as one can with a pump. :-)

You called it. Ground strap inside the generator compartment was disconnected. Connected it and added another one as a backup and the problem went away. Excellent job spotting the problem. Thanks SO much.

Thanks for the response ****. I "sorta" understood the floating ground idea, but I have a slow "rolling" line of interference on my TV and the Aladlin system screen in the coach, BUT only when the generator is running. I have checked and cleaned all the grounding positions/points I can find. No improvement. So, I was wondering what next? All susggestions is apprecated.
Kindest Regards;

OK, a question that has been bothering me. We just bought our first motorhome/RV in March of 2011 (2005 HR 45ft Navigator). Having spent years in the military with generators, the rule is ALWAYS ground them properly before starting. Additionally, I was reading that the 120 and 12 volt systems should not be grounded to the same ground.
Now, the question: "why don't I have to ground my RV to a ground rod before using the generator? Would it help/hurt anything if I did? How do the solve the problem (if it really is a problem) with grounding 120 and 12 volt systems in an RV? My owners manual is no help.
Thanks in advance for your help and answers.
Kindest regards;

Hi Rich,
There is no power coming to the fan based on the multimeter.
