Jon, I remember those- they worked pretty good in the desert. I also had one
that fit on the transmission hump and that you added ice. Ernie- glad those
days are past

A short update - Took the clutch up to Hal's Auto Air in Sacramento -
found that only the coil was bad - got new coil ($38) - Installed same
- now have cold air coming from the dash air outlets. Should have
checked the simple thing before I bought the expensive R 134a.

I was thinking of rebuilding my A/C on my old Wanderlodge but being a cheap
skate like I'm I think I will just mount my old swamp cooler somewhere and use
it. Check it out on my old 42 no freon, no electricity, just fill with cold
water and pull the cord! (Only kidding!) Jon

The accumulator is next to the condenser on the right rear.

Apparently the prior owner had a problem with the pressure switch and a
jumper was on it. I went to check the switch and discovered it was not only
disconnected, but jumped. Yhe jumper had fallen out. Tomorrow I buy a new
switch and that should end my problems.

I hope that when I remove the switch there will be a Schrader valve so I
don't lose any R134a.

Thanks for your help,

Hi R.E

The power to turn on the compressor comes from the drivers side Dash air
fan switch. The drivers side switch is the master, the co pilot side only
turns on that fan. The power to the switch is located in the overhead load
center. The drivers side fan switch is known to burn the contacts off the
switch.

Safe travels,

Ralph, is that information true also for '90's Wanderlodges?

Hi Jack and Liz:

No, the '90's Coaches have the single control head. The fan speeds are
controlled by a resistor pack located on or near the evaporator, usually
located behind the kick board on the co pilots side behind the flip up foot
rest. The control also goes through this resistor pack, but the actual
signal comes from the control head for the compressor.

Hope you two are staying warm, it is a BRRRRR 25 F here at home base, with
ice on the roads.

Safe travels,

Anybody ever have any luck repairing (or activating a long unused) dash air
conditioner on an SP36. The compressor belt was removed when I
bought the coach.
