2004 DS Air conditioners won't run

Got a 04 Dutch Star. Went to run the systems to ready for a trip soon and neither air conditioner will run. They ran fine at last use last year. Tried on AC power and generator power with no results. I don't get compressor or blower fan running. No breakers are tripped either. Anybody offer any thoughts?

Recheck your input from the control pad.

You mean meter the line from the control pad to the units on the roof?

Sorry, what I meant was re confirm your input on the Comfort Control to make sure you actually have them turned on. I speak from experience.,,,,,,thought I had a problem with the AC's, turns out the problem was me.....

I know on my 2004 occassionally it takes a several minutes (up to 10) for the ac's to come on the first time I turn on at the Comfort Control. After that they work fine on automatic. Seems the computer has to think about for a while.

Also try flipping the breakers off and on a couple of times. I've found that sometimes mine seem to be on but are not making good contact, especially after sitting for the winter.

Assuming you have a 5-button thermostat, what is in the display (including the little black bars at the bottom)? Also, have you checked your 12vdc ... the thermostat is powered by 12vdc.
