Title: A/C problems
Post by: rclark on September 18, 2020, 08:49:33 am
On the front a/c  zone 1 on the thermostat it is blank but only the fan is running, cant turn it off or make any changes other than turning off at breaker for front a/c..
The thermostat works great on zone 2 the rear a/c. This is the one I use most.
I did install two soft starts awhile back but both a/c have been used a bunch since they were installed.
Any help or ideas to try will be appreciated
Thanks
Ron

I got it working again. I had turned  breaker off and on several times and that didn't do anything so I unplugged the thermostat Wires for about 15 seconds and pulled it back in it started working again. It is great when there is a easy fix for problems.

Ron,

Good to hear you got it working. Sometimes a thermostat reset will cure problems.

Ron, you can hold the Mode and Zone buttons in and then turn off/on switch to on to cause a reset of the thermo without removing any wires, if you like!

Just for your info the wires on the back of my thermostat was a plug like on the old land line phones. I just unplugged it and then reinstalled, one of the easiest fixes I have done on the coach so far.
