This gang, is the problem with modernization. While we all know how much better todays engines are, 'cause we don't have to change "POINTS, ROTOR, AND CAP" in the distributor, analyzing a problem with todays engines, is considerably harder than it was with a carbureted, points and condenser engine.
The same goes for our appliances in our coaches. The more intricate they make them, for specialized operations, i.e. heat, dual zones, A/C one or two zone's and more, the more complicated the systems are and, along with that is, the harder it is to analyze issues if and when they crop up.
I think many technicians really do give it a good effort but, things are so complicated that, even when properly schooled in many of todays RV appliances, (and just how many actually go to school on RV appliances) it's still seriously difficult to go "right to the answer" in some or, many cases.
It's too bad that, todays appliances couldn't have a computer plug, just like the ones on todays cars and trucks, to plug into to see what's happening with the appliance and, to see what, if any are causes of issues within appliances. That would be cool.
Anyway, glad the OP got his issue resolved and, hopefully it's done for quite some time and he gets good usage out of his A/C and Heat Pump.
