AC not cooling in 115 degree heat
Not sure if this is because of the excess heat or if I have a problem. Coming from the PNW we don't experience this kind of heat. Had both the roof AC and the cab AC going from Anaheim to Needles, CA....

We're in a campground in FL right now. Temp and humiditiy both in the upper 90s. I mention humidity because our A/C has to remove moisture as well as heat to provide comfort inside the coach. You said "generator quit" and "breaker" and "didn't cool." So I wonder, did you switch from Driving with GenSet running to Parked and Shore Power? Driving, your Heat Loss passing through that hot air could easily overcome two A/C units. If you're on Shore Power now, at a campground, chances are you have low voltage as well as high heat. Today, voltage in our coach was 107. The so-called "110" is more like 120, even 122 on a good day, so 107 is seriously low. If you have that, it'll decrease A/C performance AND raise its current demand in Amps. Our breaker panel was HOT today and the A/C (a 15000 Coleman) tripped its dedicated 20A breaker. I set up a fan to cool the breakers.
If your A/C is a few years old, I suggest Chris Bryant's A/C Tune-Up. It'll give you better cooling AND less amp draw.
