Dometic AC won't turn on
Our AC hasn't been used since this winter when my inlaws used the camper in Florida. We're on a 2 week trip out west and never needed it the whole trip. Got to Iowa on our last night and it was 91 in ...

Took the 5er into the dealer today for them to diagnose my AC issue. They called an hour later and said nothing is wrong, it turned on the at the 1st try and blew as cold as can be.
AARRGGHHHH Intermittent problems!!! :M :o
So....was it bad power at the campground, a bad connection that wiggled into place on the drive home, gremlins....?!?!? I have no idea. The one variable is it's currently 75*F and overcast. When it wouldn't work the temp in the 5er was 91*F and it had been in the sun all day driving down the road.
Of course I have egg on my face because I didn't bother to try it when I got home. I should have, but didn't. I checked the fan and everything spun easily so I just assumed there was some issue in the controls.
It's supposed to get up to 90*F this afternoon. I'll kick it on this evening when it's hot and the sun is beating down on the unit. That will be the real test if there is a problem or just some odd glitch I hit at that campground.
