This customer called and said he thought the air conditioner compressor was running all the time. The only way to cut it off was to cut the power of to the AC. Was that what was actually going on? Could I fix it?

Thanks for the video. This may answer question about my problem. My domestic a/c unit (mfg date 2016) make same sound occasionally. The fan will shut off, still hear a humming sound, about 10 seconds later fan will come back on. The unit still cools and cycles off when temperature is reached. Question is do you think I could have same problem with the control box. Thanks have a great day
@mxslick50
@mxslick50 Месяц назад
Could be a bad control box but more likely possibility is the fan motor is bad and shutting down on thermal overload. Try replacing the fan motor capacitor first, if that doesn't work replace the fan motor.
@hillbillyrv
@hillbillyrv Месяц назад
It is hard to say for sure. Get your meter out and see if the fan is dropping out. Might be a bad control box or what mxslick50 said.

I have a 2000 Coleman mach 3 system, and I am trying to find a true automatic thermostat. By automatic, I mean one that does NOT have to be manually switched between heat and cool modes. I am in Idaho, and in the summer at high elevations nights get very cold, but daytime is hot. My setpoints would be 68 for heat and 73-75 for cooling. So if the inside temps at night go below 68 (which they do) I want the heat to come on. So is there a single digital stat that does this?
@hillbillyrv

I believe that MicroAir thermostat might fill your needs.

Kenny, does that system automatically switch between heat and cool modes (with proper setpoints used, like 68 heat and 75 cool?) I live at high elevation in Idaho and nights get very cold, with hot day temps, so heat is often needed at night. Also, what brand is that digital system?
@hillbillyrv

No. Not automatic. This was a Dometic.

Ok I sent you a message a couple days ago about my 10 day old 15,000 Btu dometic freezing up periodically, not all the time but about every two or three days it will freeze about 2-3 inches down from the top. I moved the new freeze sensor over to the left and one inch from the bottom and two days later it froze again. The amp draw is still good and I’m for sure it’s taped up good on the inside so I’m not mixing hot with cold. I’m no longer mad about it because it’s turned into a challenge for me. Any more suggestions.

If you AC power at the breaker, but not at the air conditioner. Bad wire of some kind of load shedding device in the system.

Hi Kenny, question for you sir. I have a hydro flame 8535 II and it needed to be condemned as it had a rotted heat exchanger, while I wait for the new one to come in, how can I get the ac and fan to turn on. It seems it’s tied into it. The only wires coming into the old furnace were positive and negative 12v and the thermostat wires. What should I jumper to make the ac/fan work? Thanks my friend.

I need help! I bought a new dometic 15,000 btu to replace a 10 year old u it that was not cooling. Rv tech installed it with my help. I watched him tape the inside part up good so that no hot air mixes with cold. I’ve checked the amp draw probably 20 times now and it’s between 11.7 and 13. This unit will freeze sometimes and it does it when I have it set at 76 or 72, the temp doesn’t matter but the. Sometimes I can set it at 74 and it will not freeze. Any ideas
@hillbillyrv
@hillbillyrv Месяц назад
Is the freeze sensor installed correctly? Left side of the coil about an inch up from the bottom. Is the freeze sensor good? Do you keep the windows and doors closed? Could even be a bad AC. Just because it is new doesn't mean it is good.
