Results for "compressor clutch"

I spent all winter looking forward to camping season, but every spring when I pull my 2001 Damon Daybreak out of storage, those same electrical gremlins start haunting me again. The dash AC isn't working properly and I think I need to trace some wiring to figure out what's going on.

I've been searching everywhere but I'm not sure where to get the proper wiring diagrams for this model. Should I be looking for RV-specific diagrams, or is the dash AC part of the Ford chassis system? I'm a bit confused about what's considered "coach electrical" versus automotive on these units.

Any guidance on the best places to find these diagrams would be really appreciated - I don't want to start poking around without the right documentation! …more

According to every YouTube video I've watched, finding the AC fuse in my 1997 Pace Arrow F53 chassis should be easy, but I'm completely lost staring at this hood fuse box. The AC stopped working completely and I'm pretty sure it's just a blown fuse, but I've been staring at this under-hood fuse box for an hour and can't figure out which one controls the dash AC.

I see tons of fuses in there but none are clearly labeled for AC that I can tell. Is there a specific name I should be looking for? And what amperage should this fuse be? I really hope someone can point me in the right direction because this heat is killing me and I know it's probably something simple I'm missing! …more

This compressor clutch for my Jayco Greyhawk E450's intermittent AC is going to cost me big — but am I even diagnosing the right part? The problem is specifically with the cooling function - the AC will blow ice cold air for about a minute or two, then the cooling suddenly stops even though the fan continues to run perfectly at all speed settings. After a few minutes, the cooling kicks back in again, then cycles off once more. This pattern repeats constantly while driving.

I've noticed that the fan motor and all the controls are working flawlessly - I can adjust from low to high speed without any issues. It's purely the cooling/compressor function that's acting up. The system isn't completely dead, which makes this even more puzzling. I suspect this might be related to the compressor clutch since the cooling cuts out so abruptly while the fan keeps running normally.

What should I be checking to diagnose this intermittent compressor clutch behavior? I want to understand the most likely causes and the proper diagnostic steps before taking it to a shop, since intermittent problems can be tricky for mechanics to reproduce and fix. …more

Planning my annual spring RV prep for the 1994 motorhome, that stubborn E4OD transmission keeps reminding me the rebuild I've been avoiding can't wait another season. I'm specifically wondering if the motorhome E4OD has a unique torque converter compared to truck models. When I get this transmission on the workbench, what should I know about finding the right torque converter? Are there any key differences I need to watch out for? I want to make sure I order the correct parts and do this rebuild correctly. …more
