AC's on a 34ft Bounder acting up
My 96 Bounder Class A has sat behind my gates for the summer. I went to get it ready to maybe use this weekend. I plugged the AC cord in, and found neither front nor rear AC would work.
The front comes on fanwise, as does the back. But when put on COOL the unit begins to skip. It will come on briefly then go quiet. Sometimes multiple times within a second or two. IT does this over and over. Never does the compressor come on.
The back unit was working earlier this summer. It also now fan only. But on low fan, when you put it on cool it also begins to skip. Like it is trying to kick the compressor on.
Do I have low amps? I'm plugged into the house. I have heavy cords to the plug.
Also does the same thing with the generator on.
I have only tried this with one ac at a time. Has the capacitor gone out on both units?
Or are they DOA and ready for new ones. This unit has that Fleetwood Bounder intelligent panel on the wall btw.
I do have a 10k generator across town that maybe would produce more amps...or the units DOA?
