Basement AC will only blow hot, was told the sensor for hot/cold setting is stuck and will the entire AC unit to be replaced as no one repair these units. So question is can it be fixed or just replace the unit?

I have a 2002 HR Ambassador with 8.3 Cummins and am looking for a new a/c chassis condenser. I have done some searching and about to fabricate one, which will be very expensive. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance, Orrin

I have a 2014 Itasca Ellipse 42QD. (Winnebago Tour) It was raining pretty heavily, and wind was blowing rain at about a 45 degree angle. We began having water leak from 2 lights, side by side, that I now know are directly under the most forward A/C unit. I got on the roof today and can't find any obvious issues that would cause a leak. I took off the A/C cover, then another cover under that and I think I found the issue. If you look in pic 1901 you'll see the hole for wires and air flow for the A/C unit (Unit is a Coleman Mach). There was some water still in that hole. There is no way for water to get into that hole from the A/C unit... HOWEVER, the A/C unit does sit about 2 inches above the roof. There is a foam gasket (about 2" thick) that sits between the A/C and the roof, around this hole. I THINK the rain, when blowing sideways, got under this gasket and into the hole. Has anyone had this same problem. In order to seal that gasket using silicone or caulk, I'd need to find some with a very long applicating nozzle. about 3x the normal caulk nozzle length. Or..... I guess the "right" way to fix it would be have the gasket replaced. My guess is I could do this myself. I'm just wondering of anyone else has had this issue and had it fixed??????

We are relatively new fulltimer's and about to make our first long haul trip (3k miles). We have been trying to figure out how to keep the coach cool for our pets while we travel. Thanks to all the forums out there we just read that running the generator while driving will allow us to use the roof A/C units and power the fridge on electric. That being said, we are a little naive about how to properly do this and all the 'in's and out's' of it. Any advice? Thoughts?

I have 2001 Safari Zanzibar with a ACME dash a/c unit and it seems like it is not putting out very much air when heating or a/c. I removed the blower and tested all the speeds and it worked fine. I saw that the damper arm was opening by watching the damper arm on side of unit next to blower motor. I crawled under the front of motorhome to check if air intake was plugged it seemed ok and the damper was opened. I can feel little air on the drivers side vents and little on passenger. When I turned on foot vents a lot of air came out but those are small vents. Very little air on defrost. Is this how these work. 77000 miles . Looks like blower fan has been replaced. Looks like it has three dampers on this unit. What is the likely hood of one of those not opening. New owner. Thanks Troy
