penguin II AC issue
Having an issue with one of my Dometic Penguin II heat pump/AC. When the weather is hot the AC works fine. Since we got up here in the mountains where it is fairly cool it is acting crazy. I can set the temp to 74 and during the day it will cycle just fine but when it gets a little cooler in the evening It will not cut off and it quits cooling.
I suspect freeze up but I have tried running it with the fan on high but it still quits cooling. I have cut it off and back on with same results.
If it is freezing what can I do to fix it? My front unit works like a champ.
By the way when the compressor is running and I change the fan speeds I can't hear a change in the speed. When I have it on the fan setting I can hear the change of speeds.
I appreciate your feedback for ideas. I am about ready to swap the front an rear because we use it a lot more than the front.
By the way, it works perfectly on the heat pump mode.
