The below two issues are very frustrating🤨
We just purchased a new 2023 Transcend 200mk. Overall I love the camper, but now I have two significant issues.
1) The door sticks when it gets hot. So much so that if we are inside, I can't get out until it cools down or I have to go out the slider window. Good thing, I bring a ladder.😏 But that is not what this post is about.
2) Today, it was 90, so I turned on the AC. Overall it works excellently in cooling. Actually, better than anything I have had in the past.😀
Now for the problem--
With the AC on and the fan on AUTO the unit(fan and compressor) cycles on and off every 5 minutes.
But then some say, don't run the fan on AUTO, run it on low because the sensor is in the AC takeup. (Stupid place for the temperature sensor, if you ask me)
With the AC on and the fan on LO, the fan does not cycle, but I can hear the compressor cycling every 7 minutes.
What is frustrating is that the temperature where I am sitting does not justify the cycling as it needs to stay on longer, which would then cause it to cycle less. This would give a broader range. Does anyone know if there is any way to have the AC temperature detected by the thermostat or external temperature probe, NOT the intake probe? This fix would make all the difference in the world. This might be old school, and the temperature will indeed have a more significant swing, but there is a reason why houses still use this technique.
Any suggestion would be appreciated.😁
