Comfort Control

Today, I wanted to " exercise" the generator. Started right up. I had disconnected power at the pedestal. When I went to turn on the a/c's , the Comfort Control wouldn't light up!!??? I had waited a few minutes to let the generator get warm. This had NEVER happened to me before. Panic set in. I was about to sit down and ask the Forum, but the Control lit up and all was good again.
Any ideas as to why this happened? I was going through a trouble shooting mindset, and was coming up blank.

The system allows generator to stabilize, and lets it be sure that it has oil pressure. And coolant...Somtimes it seems like a couple of minutes...

Starting to get warm here in Mexico. Just making sure things work. Did I tell you about the mouse we caught? Having him mounted.

Can't wait for pictures.  Hope it is not in the kitchen.

Question. Mike.
Does that compressor track well while you're driving down the road?

:dance:  Ha! I did design the system so it can be packed-up if Rebecca gets antsy; nothing is screwed, bolted or nailed to the coach. ^.^d  Something that IS amazing: the amount of moisture taken out of the coach; I'd thought at 15% RH, it would be dry as a bone, but two of us and the dog (plus propane cooking) pull quite a bit!

With the moisture that's being pulled. Have you thought about routing the water to a plant or bowl?. Only draw back to bowl is that rodents would be attracted to it. Otherwise all critter would get a drink.

Each of you give off over two quarts of water each day.
