a/c went

[bucwheat]

We were in N.C mountains two weeks ago camping at as soon as we got there while setting up I noticed the A/C was making a wierd warbbleing noise,I let it run for a few minutes to see if by chance it was just unlevel,I finished setting up and leveling and the A/C was still making the noise,I shut it down and called the camp ground office to see if there was an RV a/c man close and they sent one out,well you are not going to believe this but a dirt dobber nest was attached to the fan blade causeing it to warbble, the freon heated up causeing the compressor to fail,all from a little bee.Guess I'm going to buy a new unit and get a cover for the cover.

I hooked up the power wrong on mine and blew the transformer, I feel your pain. Go look at a RV junkyard and see if they have one. I can pick one up in my area for about $300. That's my next investment to have 2 A/C's on the trailer to keep everything cooler.

Those little suckers are evil.
It's worse when the get in the furnace burner and you have to pull it all the way apart.

Thanks so much but I only live two and a half hours away. I talked to him last night and he thinks that some resistor should shut down before the compressor goes bad,he told me to take it to a a real A/C man,he believes that the R/V dude at the campground was just trying to sell me a unit I didn't need.

I can't remember what year yours is, but mine was a 93. Some of the newer ones actually have a fuse up in the tube that goes from the unit into the trailer. There should be some type of protection to help save the unit. I actually had my A/C guy come out and check it and he used a transformer from an ice machine to fix mine, just make sure that he's comfortable with working on an RV system.

Mine is an 08,I have done some research and it seams my Buddy in Myrtle Beach is right there is a link that prevents the compressor from over heating,I'll try to get it looked at soon,Bobby
