Ppmy coach (1995..385) has a relay that powers 2 wires
Both are orange with white stripe. One wire powers AC compressor
And I have no idea what the other wire powers... BUT it’s pulling about 28 amps
It doesn’t go the fan motors. With this wire unhooked everything seems to work
But with it on the relay something is pulling a lot of amps. Something is amiss
Anyone have any thoughts....

Do you have electric fans on the condensor? On my 1993 the condensor is under the coach just behind front axle

The dryer is plumbed right by the condenser. On the 95 Coach 390, the condenser was in the passenger side bay with the generator blower.

Before I replaced the motor, I would disconnect the wires AT the motor. If you have a short in the wiring, it will still draw the amperage. It's a quick check to ensure you don't buy an unnecessary motor.
Can't help with a motor part number, but you might talk to
