I apologize for taking over the original thread.

Sorry for your trouble Steve. If you don't find a bad start capacitor and end up replacing the unit I would suggest going up to the 15,000 BTU unit over the stock 13,5000 BTU unit. When a tree fell on our coach a few years ago it took out the rear AC. The shop could not find a 13.5 unit with the heat pump option and installed a 15K instead. I don't know the price difference because insurance covered the cost. I can tell you they are the same height on the roof. You can visually tell the difference because the 15K unit has vent holes down one side of the cover.

Bob ... I had thought about replacing it with the 15k unit also. I don't think the cost difference is that much and should really help with the cooling of the large area up front. Thanks for the advice.
