A/C problem

Mine operates as Learjet described. Shuts down the fan for a few seconds when changing fan speed when fan is in auto.

Mine was doing this, would be running then fan would stop for 6-10 seconds while compressor was still running. It was a bad board in the unit according to the dealer. He replaced it under warranty and no more issues.
Hope this helps

We have a Dometic A/C that's stalling out. It stalls anywhere from 1-5 seconds then comes back on. Sometimes it comes back on blowing stronger than it did before it stalled. Anyone have this problem or can give advice to a solution? We had a tech come out and he had to change the control board b/c the wires and wire caps were burned!!

Thanks!

Are you running the fan in Auto?

I have the Single Zone LCD Thermostat, when the Fan is in AUTO as it approaches the correct temp, the fan will shut off for a few seconds to switches to low then start back up, the compressor keeps running during this swap over. Sometimes it does this again to high. I run the Fan in Hi or Low until the temp is stabil in the unit, then Auto works fine.

here is the info from the manual on the "special feature"

Special Features
Auto Fan
When auto fan is selected the fan speed will vary depending on the
difference between the temperature set-point and the room temperature.
In auto fan the compressor and fan cycle On and Off with the
thermostat.
When the difference is:
>5º The fan operates on HIGH
<4º The fan operates on LOW

OK, thanks for your time!

Then what? Stays on or quits completely?

Maybe a controller problem but ??? someone more knowledgeable than me might be able to chime in.

As far as air leakage you will have to take the filter cover off and check the seal between the two sides. It is fairly obvious when you look up in there.

Oops...off and on for about 30 minutes

Over and over, but randomly. Might do it several times for about minutes, then it won't do it again for an hour or two.

Does it continue to do that over and over or just once?

Basically, while it's running it stops blowing for 1-5 seconds then comes back on.

So how does one fix an air leakage? Would this leakage cause it to not cool as well as it should sometimes?
