What did you do to your Toy Hauler today???
This is always a fun thread to watch so I thought I would start one here.

I been having some issues with the A/C restarting once the temp has been reached, so I starting looking into digital units. Most use a big box store digital for home use, which works fine, but then you lose the Hi or Lo fan speed depending on how you wire it up and it still needs to use batteries.
Then I found the Dometic Single Zone LCD units, they cover most all of the current units.
My WW only has A/C and furnace, no heat pump or heat strip.
I ordered the base unit, Fan, A/C and Heat.
It will cost a bit more than a home digital Tstat because you will need the control box too.
I started the removal process;
Old control box needs to come out, which is located up in the A/C unit on the inside, no need to go up on the roof.
Old Tstat out
Install begins...
New control box in, only 3 wires are needed to control the new Tstat instead of the 6 which the old one used.
The new digital Tstat installed, all of the old functions still work including Hi and Lo fan.
All in all not a hard install about 2 hrs., some rewiring is required. I haven't had a chance to try it out but will in a couple of weeks we will be going out.
