Thank you Doug. I am not the original owner, but the AC is original and has had no modifications. I did replace the rear air, but this is working fine. My model is the RV Comfort HP and does have the green wires coming out of the thermostat. As long as the remote sensor is connected to the thermostat it reads 99 degrees. To replace the remote sensor I cut and spliced the leads near the AC intake. When cut, about 4 inches from the sensor the display read "--" and after splicing it went back to 99. Thus, if the problem was a short upstream from the sensor I would not have expected a change. This is what led me to think the Tstat was bad. So I replaced it. I had trouble finding the right replacement, but I'm confident I have it now.
I am concerned the the cold air circulating inside the duct near the intake duct next to the sensor might be an issue? Don't see why, but feels odd since I don't find this to be the case in the other intake ducts. Seems like there might be a hole in the duct work nearby, but I can't see it.
