This dosn't look right to me.

My A/C unit has some issues.
This electric box just hangs by the wires.
Going to try attaching it to something above but can't see where.
Guess I'll have to open the plenum from the roof. ??????????????

You might be able to velcro it right in place there.

Since its metal and the condinsation get really bad it causes the breaker to flip.
OR at least I think that's what's happening???

There are two studs that the control box is attached to using wing nuts. You cannot get to it from the outside, everything is done from inside the coach. From what I can see on you pic it looks like the wing nuts came loose. Use a flashlight and look at both sides of the control box for the studs.

OK Thanks.
Saves me climbing on the roof.
I got knocked off my bike and have a hard time using my left arm.
Stop signs only apply to some people.
The opening is about half the size I need to work but I have all day to get done.

The studs that held the box in place are GONE. ??????
So I used paracord and tied the box in place.
Poked the cord through the holes where the studs SHOULD be and tied the box up.
HEY it works so I'll leave it for now.

The studs are up in the a/c unit about 6 to 8 inches and are only about 1/2 inch long. You need a flash light to really see them.

looked and looked.
There are two holes in the sheet metal that line up with the holes in the control box.
I think someone took them out while workig on the A/C unit before we bought it.
The paracord went through those holes and into the control box. Perfect match.
I even felt all over with mu hand but no studs.
