The dash AC went out yesterday ( very hot in unit) We are 4.5 hours from dealer. My question is can a person drive the unit with the gen-set running and coach AC unit on of the motorhomes? Not sure if it would damage any electronics?

Typically roof AC's only work with gen on. Traveling during the summer I run gen all day with AC's blasting.

I see no problem with it. I ran mine on the way home last weekend and never turned on the Dash error. Just be sure to check the oil / coolant levels before leaving on your drive.

You should be able to. Our gen set will run while driving and the aircon. has nothing to do with driving.

So. Why not?
