Brand new RVer w/no AC

We just got a new travel trailer this week and are still outfitting it. Today we turned on the AC and it didn't come on. We are connected to shore power via our workshop. We have lights - what could be wrong?

    You need 110V noted above and in my case I ran aseparate circuit from the breaker to provide that 110V at 30A, just like in a campground.

  • Welcome to the forum.
    Yes, a little more information about your TT would be helpful.
    Did you check the breakers?

  • We need a little more info. Is it controlled by a remote thermostat or controls are on the unit? Did the dealer show you how to use it during your pre delivery inspection?
