Just out of curiosity, what was the tech's diagnoses on the AC unit?

We stopped for the night in Salina, KS. Lord please let me survive Kansas, is it really supposed to be 100 when you're driving west into the sun????
I thought the front a/c had quit since it got to 82 inside. No just so darn hot it couldn't keep up.
I found the coach was also running hotter than normal so at a rest stop I saw the fuel filter was to the top. So had the guys at Petro truck stop in Salina change the filter. $53 to change the Davco filter and that included 2 spares!

Richard,
Fried controller and compressor locked. The authorized Dometic dealer (Allens RV in Branson) took until 1:00pm from 8:30am to do all the tests required to replace under warranty. Pretty sure it was the ORA electric as several others had and are having issues now. I am never leaving shore power on again when a single thunder clap occurs.

Got to Heaton Bay on Lake Dillion on the first and was able to get a site till mine opens up. Highs in 70s, lows in the 50s. Have not been on the mountains yet but looks like still a lot of snow. I am on lot 29 and will be here for the next 15 days. Went through a lot of wind in Kansas which pop the windshield and also made the awnings loose one side so that I had to tape the windshield and awnings. Will reset the glass here at the site.

My plans this summer are to produce a DVD of the rally combining video and photo. I will not include the lectures on cataracts and AquaHot, which will be extra DVDs. I would welcome photos from anyone who will send them to me copied onto a CD. Please do not reduce the pixels to make them smaller. If you will let me use your photos in the DVD, please mail the CD to me at:
