Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	Richard	9-6-01
I have an airstream stored at a friends house. He plugged in the travel trailer, turned on the AC and then plugged a leaf blower in the same outlet and proceeded to use the blower. Seems he shorted out the AC. I tested all the fuses, and there were none blown out. Is this a fixable problem or should the AC be replaced ?

Re: Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	gerald copker	6-4-06
I was checking out my Coleman Delta T motorhome air conditioner by connecting to my hot tub service. I carelessly connected the 115 volt unit to 240. I havent checked it out yet, but is it possible I damaged only the controls or should I get a new a/c unit.
Re: Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	Kim	7-18-06
We have a Cloeman air conditioner in our rv, for some reason it has started dripping water inside the trailer itself. Like condensation or something. Is there a drain tube that should be attached to it or something? Thank You! Kim
Re: Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	mary mortensen	3-13-06
I have a 5th wheel 95 sportmans I don't know what make or model the air conditioning is but I turn it on by a thermostat and it will come on but it doesn't blow air out of the vents.
Re: Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	Denny	6-27-06

Re: Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	Ben Morris	8-5-08
Coleman rooftop air conditioner, compressor won't shut off, cools by switching the blower on manually, blower won't come on with thermostat control switch in Auto position. Can only shut the compressor off with the circuit breaker.
Re: Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	Bob	9-6-01
May have blown thermal up under cover. Does all else work when plugged in?? Did you reset breaker for A/C?? I have an airstream stored at a friends house. He plugged in the travel trailer, turned on the AC and then plugged a leaf blower in the same outlet and proceeded to use the blower. Seems he shorted out the AC. I tested all the fuses, and there were none blown out. Is this a fixable problem or should the AC be replaced ?
Re: Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	Charles Colburn	4-16-04
I am considering purchasing a Yamaha EF2800i inverter. My fifth wheel has a 15000 coleman ac unit. Will this inverted properly start the ac unit?
Re: Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	joel	7-30-06
I'm a female - been reading about A/C problems. The fan keeps kicking on and off like trying to stay on but doesn't. Is this the capacitor? If so, how do I change it and where is it located. Can't afford to have dealer fix it. How do I check it out?
Re: Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	joann moore	7-18-05
What reasons would air conditioner be to niot be cooling prperly? and ho w does one go about recharging with coolant?
Re: Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	larry sumpter	8-7-06
We have a 94 fifth wheel camper and a coleman air conditioner and it ice up had a tech check it out and we didn't have the fan on high. well two days later it has iced up again and and the fan was on high. what causes this? thank you.
Duo therm RV Air Conditioner Problem	james stark	8-13-07
My RV air conditioner cools but after running awhile the compressor starts cyling on and off while the fan continues to run. Is this due to low refrigerant? If so, what refrigerant is used to recharge it, and how is this done? Jim
Re: Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	Jana	8-28-07

Re: Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	Duane	7-7-08

Re: Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	Dan	6-4-07
My son's air-conditioner on his 1979 camper is not working properly. it was working fine until this weekend and now the fan only runs for about 5 min. and then stops the air is cooling fine the only problem is the fan keeps shutting down,you wait a few min. and you can start it again but it will only run for about 5 min.and then shut down again any suggestions.

Re: Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	terry	7-13-07
We are new to rv living.have a 1995 gulfstream 19' travel trailer with a coleman rooftop airconditioner. we are confused as to how the airconditioner operates. we understand that it calls for a 30 amp service but we have regular household service. can the unit be run from 15 amp? do we need a 30 amp extension cord? what is the best way to ensure no problems

I tested all the fuses, and there were none blown out. Is this a fixable problem or should the AC be replaced ? My bets are you did one of two things. You either caused the A/C circuit breaker or main coach breaker to trip, or you caused the A/C to run on low voltage which caused the compressor thermal check to trip. Check and rest all breakers in the coach and that should fix the problem. If the thermal tripped on the compressor it should rest itself once it cools down. If the A/C won't run then you will need to get out the old meter and start troubleshooting the circuit and the unit to find the problem.
Re: Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	Roger Stanfield	5-15-05
The recycle time of my RV rconditioner is set to long. It stays off to long and gets warm in between cycles. I called the factory (Jayco) and they told me there was no way to adjust it. My question is does anyone make an elec- tronic thermostat with an adjustable off time that will work for my airconditioner. I was told that because of the D.C. controls, the electronic thermostat would not work. Is this true? Thanks Roger
Re: Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	larry	8-6-07

Re: Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	Denise Jalloh	6-6-06
I have a Coleman air compressor which has frozen up. In addition the furnace also froze up. My husband looked up into the vent on the furnace and it was frozen as far as he could see. We bought the house brand new in August 1997 and the compressor was installed at that time. We have turned the air conditioner off and when the ice melts we have water around the furnace. We had this same problem last year and wwe had the drain cleaned and freeone put into the compressor. Please respond as to what you think the problem might be.
Re: Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	patrick	7-17-05
My coleman 6769 delta t series was running fine then it suddenly stopped cooling ( i dont hear the commpressor kicking on any more) is this the capacitor? or is it something else?
Re: Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	Patrick Loia	6-14-05
Have a Coleman Roof Air(ducted) that will not start up. Fan motor hums, compressor comes on. Removed ceiling filter and cover to expose fan. Gave fan a spin with my hand and unit functions normally. If I adjust thermostst to automatic, same condition occurs. What gives???
Re: Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	Bernie	8-23-06
Coleman Air Conditoner hums. Spin fan works what gives. What is wrong with these units. I have used this less that 4 months total. Coleman has a big problem here. Help. Bernie
Re: Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	skip	7-11-06
Usually it's abad capicitor in the control box on the roof
Re: Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	marty	7-26-05
I just had mine fixed with the same problem. It was the run capacitor. There is a start and a run capacitor for the compressor, plus the blower capacitor. Very simple system. I would just pull the two capacitors and have them checked. If it isn't that, then you'll need to call someone to check the compressor. My capacitor was only $15 so the cheap way out is to just take them in to be tested.
Re: Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	jerry magner	8-5-07
I have a coleman 13,500 on motorhome,when you turn thermostat down does not turn compressor off,think it might be freezing up??????somebody said might be low on freeon,a/c has never been charged
Re: Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	edwin schauer	3-8-07
Warm weather has already started in Florida. I tried to run the air conditioner in my airstream. Though the compressor "kicks in" it is not blowing cold air. Do I need a recharge? How do I do that?
Re: Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	Bon Naugle	10-14-05
My 6769 Delta T series AC fan motor will not run in any position heat or cool and low voltage led is on when in the cool position.I have a service manuel on this unit and through trouble shooting the fan motor section the recomendation is to replace the control box.The problem is that there are no replacement parts for the Delta T.series units.Does anyone have a fix for this problem or an electrical schenatic drawing for the Control Box.
Re: Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	MARK ROSS	8-2-07
I have the same problen as Bon Naugle on 10-14-05. Did he ever get resolve to his problem. Was he able to find an new control assembly. My Delta T has been diagnosed that the control panel is bad. I switched it out wit the other unit in the coach to make sure and it is bad. Where can I get a control panel?
Re: Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	Gene	6-25-06
Coleman a/c on R/V #6750d mach will start and run for 15 to 30 minutes and then throw the breaker.Replaced breaker but no change.Is this a failed run capacitor or what?

Re: Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	Roger	2-26-08
I have a 1987 5th wheel prowler camper, the coleman air conditioner runs fine for about 15 minutes then pops the circuit breaker. I can set the breaker and it will do the same thing. What is the cause and how do I fix this problem?
Re: Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	Daniel Tant	6-27-07
I can't seem to find the answers to any of the questions. I need to recharge my old colman compresser can and how do I. Thanks
Re: Coleman Mach has strong burnt electrical smell	Will Singleton	7-14-07
After staying at a park in NC, we noticed a strong electrical(burned odor) smell coming from the ac overhead vents. Any ideas? Thanks.
Re: Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	Bryant	7-25-06
Kim, I have the same problem with a 1989 Airstream with a coleman a/C. There is a plastic pan under the unit to catch the condisation. The pan is cracked and the dealer tells me the pan is no longer available. He says the only solution is to try to repair the cracks or replace the A/C with a Durotherm A/C unit. If you repair the cracks, new ones will probably develop.
Re: Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	Brian Todgham	6-22-08
My air conditioner at our trailer is working fine for about ten minutes then it kicks the fuse breaker off. If you reset the breaker it works okay for about the same length of time then kicks the breaker off again. I replaced the breaker but that doesn't seem to be the problem. Any help would be much appreciated. Brian
Re: Coleman RV Air Conditioner Problem	monique	9-3-07
My coleman tsr 7300 roof top airconditioner start blowing then when the cold air normally starts blowing there is a noise, like something is blowing around inside the unit, then it either blows the fuse or just blows regular air. Can we fix this ourselves, if so how?
