Dashboard AC not blowing cold air

The dashboard AC in my 2016 Vegas is not blowing cold air. The fan is working but air is not cold. The problem seems to have started right after I jump started and charged my chassis battery and had two new house batteries installed. Everything else is working fine. Could it be a fuse? If so, where are the AC fuses located? I found a fuse box in the exterior cabinet right behind the front wheel on the driver’s side. Attached are 3 pictures. I would appreciate any input. If not a fuse, what else is likely? TIA.

Here is Ed Felker's manual
https://www.thorforums.com/forums/f1...nual-4961.html
Appendix 8 at the end has the chassis fuse locations. What you posted are Thor's fuses and may not involve the chassis A/C.


The Power Distribution Box has "LOC #29 fuse &
The Passenger Compartment Fuse Panel has fuse #37
...these may or may not help.

Thanks OldWEB. I haven’t been able to open the link to Ed’s manual. Maybe because I’m on my phone. When I get home, I’ll try on my laptop. I’ll let you know. Thanks again.

If you went through hood to jump, may have knocked spade terminal loose on A/C pressure switch by dryer at left hand side. Mine loosened up and compressor clutch would drop out. I snug crimp and no more issues on my 2016 Vegas. Is same area where 2 vac cleaner hoses are.

Dashboard AC not blowing cold air

Mudd,
I took photos of the dryer and at least one pressure switch- maybe high pressure and low pressure. The one on the left has two wires plugged into it but I also found a loose wire. Is this what you are talking about? If so, where does the wire go?
If it sounds like I don’t know what I’m talking about, that’s probably true. But I have to get this AC fixed. Thanks for your time and help!

Not sure about extra wire. I was talking about pressure switch with 2 wires you show. The push on terminals were loose causing clutch to quit. Once I squeezed them to stay tight, clutch engagement was reliable. Is you clutch cycling? One mine there is sight glass on dryer as well.

I tried everything you all suggested so I’m not sure what worked, but it’s fixed and the AC is blowing cold air! Thank you so much everyone.

Exact same thing happened on my 32FE. Jump started with a jump power supply and the AC wasn’t working; only blowing warm air. Installed a new battery and AC is fine now.
