2017 377RLBH A/C in bunk room weak
I seem to be getting very little air blowing out of the a/c vent in the mid bunk room. I’ve done the a/c mod noted in this forum and the rest of the camper is fine. I pulled the vent cover off and noticed this is the only a/c vent in the camper that is ducted w 4” dryer hose. Who knows where the other end connects. Anyone else having this issue? Ideas?
Thanks
Greg

Same on my 2019 so they haven’t improved on anything.

If I remember correctly, that vent goes up in the wall thru the loft to the ceiling.

the other end is in the upper bunk of the stairs behind the wood shelving on left side there is one of those black rings in there that you need to remove

The hose goes straight up to the ceiling in the loft above bunk. You have to remove a wood panel to get to it. On mine the hose was connected to a metal fitting. That metal fitting was like the black plastic piece everyone is taking off. So i just trimmed it down so it did not stick up in the ceiling to block the air flow. Taped everything up good while I was in there too. That really helped with my air flow in the bunk room.

Thanks for all the replies. Going to check it out this weekend, see if I can find the magic panel.

There is not really a magic panel. I had to take the bookcase/storage compartment apart to get to mine. Was not hard just time consuming. Well worth it though. Plenty of air now.

Dropped mine off at the dealer today so they could look at my radios and replace my TV. I’ll definitely be doing this when I get it back.

Mine was very weak as well, I fixed mine by looking at the bedroom AC unit. I took the filters out and noticed that the baffle that separated the intake and the cold air was out of position. Once I put it back in place the buck room air was 100% improvement.

Just fixed the vent behind the wall. Only three screws were holding it on. No tape. I sealed up the duct to the ceiling then removed the inner baffle. Then taped all around when I reinstalled it. Can’t test because I can’t run the AC at my house, but I am hopeful.
