Tom,
Excellent Advice. I will check the panel tomorrow.
After researching the other threads regarding thermostats, it appears that the newell supplied RV Comfort one in the thread is for a double unit (plus heat) They are 12V thermostats. In the thread someone posted the swap from an old one to the new RV Comfort Coleman-Mach one, but it's just a "move one wire over from terminal 6 to terminal 3-ish) So Not really sure what each wire does...nor the bunch of twisted together leads behind the thermostat.
I REALLY wish Newell would supply systems schematics. They are so good at color coding the wiring....
At this point I just want to figure out what wire triggers what and do some testing. Maybe this thermostat is wired wrong (which wouldn't surprise me at all) and all is well. Could be the enture AC unit (fan and compressor) is toast or maybe just the control board.
I am learning how it all works together. Once I know..I am happy to share!
Thanks,
