Air Conditioner Problem

[Lee Davis]

I am assuming Wanderlodges and BMC's are the same when it comes to a problem
like this



I just purchased a 1995 - 37 ft BMC. My rear air conditioner leaks water
through one of the top curbside cabinets next to the Bedroom TV. Bluebird
told me it is supposed to come out the red tubing which exits down by the
back wheels. (the front air does that through the red tubing behind the
fron wheel). Bluebird says the red tubing in the back must have become
disconnected in some way and they say I need to take off the plastic grate
on the inside, remove the ceiling panel, and then carefully cut a hone in
the 4x8 sheet of plywood behind that ceiling panel (with a circular saw set
not to protrude through the plywood and cut any wires, etc). that sounds
like a bad way to go in my opinion. Because a very small amount of water
does come through the tubing, I thought perhaps the cups they have installed
around the air conditioner to divert the water to the tubing may have become
disturbed in some way. I thought I might need to take the air conditioner
off the top to fix that and that may be a better way to go then the inside
program. Has anyone ever had a problem like this and if so, what is the
best way to try to fix it. Thanks in advance for any help

Lee:

The "red" tubing has probably become plugged with debris. I would
take a air hose and blow back up the tube from where it exits behind
the rear wheel. I'll wager that will fix the problem.

Good luck.

Marv, I also have had my rear A/C put some water on the bed and did
just what you said. I have a 95 BMC and live in Kennewick WA. might be
the only bird in town? I am thinking that my next Bird will be a 04 or
05 like yours. How do you like it? would like to talk to you some day?

We have a wonderful 03 LXi we are looking to sell. We love it but
need to put our money elsewhere at this time.

I actually did that with a leaf nozzle on my water hose and water came out
the air conditioner on top of the bus and ran down the side (so I knew the
line was clear)and back down the hose to drain what did not go out the top.
Unfortunately, when I tried the air conditioner next, no improvement, the
water still comes out in the cabinet.



Any other ideas?



Thanks,



Lee
