Air conditioner just stopped
We're out for a few days at a FHU campground on a hot, humid day, and last night the air conditioner, a Dometic Penguin II 13.5k, which had been working normally, shut off just as the temperature reached the thermostat set temperature. At first I thought it just went off because it reached the right temperature, but it never came back on, even after an eight degree rise. Also, it seemed odd to me that both the compressor and the fan had stopped, even though I had it set on "low" instead of auto, and the fan should have continued to run.
Went through all of the normal checks, circuit breaker, main breaker, even turned off and on the 12v switch so the firefly tablet screen would recycle. No luck. When I turn the a/c on from the tablet screen, there's an audible "click" from the a/c, but nothing else. All other 120ac appliances work normally.
Is there some fuse or breaker up in the a/c unit itself? Or do I cut the trip short and head for a dealer? It is still under warranty. Thanks.
