Roof A/C
« on: May 24, 2013, 04:02:14 PM »
My roof A/C units only work when the coach is plugged in. They will not work when the generator is running. I don't think this is normal....
What can I look for? Thanks as always for the help.....

John,

Does anything else work when you generator is on?

No I don't think so. The microwave will work when the generator is running and the inverter is on, but I am assuming it is running from the inverter. Never had a generator before so I'm ignorant to their workings. I will now assume the generator isn't working....is there a fuse or breaker I can check? Thanks.....

I apperciate it! There is so much knowledge here. This is my first coach so I am a newbie at some of these systems. Hopefully one of these days I will be able to contribute something to the group.....thanks.

My wife and I recently bought a 1997 Marquis with all the manuals, and we're still wondering where everything is and how they should work, so you're not alone! Everyone here has been great in helping us newbie's!

John, you are contributing already, by virtue of being brave enough to ask what other newbies may be reluctant to.

Thank you,

Just for reference there is a breaker outside on the generator next to the hour meter.
