    I messed up

    I replaced the fan motor on my Dometic Brisk Air 2 but I made a mistake. When I was inserting the 3 wires from the motor into the 6 pronged plug I did it in the wrong order and started the A/C. It started for a second then shut off. I immediately realized my mistake and wired them correctly but...

    A/C help, 2018 29QB

    For starters, I’m not handy what-so-ever, nor do I know/understand terminology for A/C units so I’m going to do my best. We have a 2018 29QB. The A/C thermostat is a Dometic. The A/C will only run & cycle if the “air dump” vent is open in the main living area of the trailer. If that’s the case...

    Air Condition question

    I have a 1993 International 3700, with no air conditioning. Would it be cost effective to try to add stock air conditioning to the bus or would be be better to add after market air conditioning? Thanks Joe
