A/C Issue

[Ront77]

2004 Fleetwood Revolution 40C
I have 2 units which I’m assuming are Coleman. They both cool fine.
The rear unit has stared doing this ——
I can hear the compressor start but no fan. After a couple of minutes (2-3) of compressor only the fan will start up as normal. It’s cooling fine after the fan starts.
The front unit is fine.

Any thoughts ?

Likely the capacitor.
These tend to fail after a while.

It's a cheap fix. Just make sure you disconnect power before working on it.
Also take a photograph of the wiring or make a mud map to ensure you get all the wires in their correct order.

What I normally do is give the fan a spin to make sure the bearings are free. Some are oilable.

Good luck ��

My thoughts also. I’m used to the capacitor just dieing totally. But, I guess it can just take time to charge up.
