Bedroom AC issues

Hey folks new here,

We have a 2021 355mbqs. Full time for about 7 months

It's sunny with no clouds and 90+ at the moment. Our bedroom ac turns on cold for a couple of minutes then changes to fan only. The living room is working fine. Naturally bedroom is getting super hot. I checked the air return inside and haven't checked the coils up top yet. But I did just check them a couple months ago. Any suggestions where to check next?

Neighbor suggested a voltmeter to see if we are getting enough power from the campground.

That would be the first place I'd check. Could also be a bad high pressure swtich turning it off.

I may have had the same problem with my bedroom AC...cooled for only about 2 minutes and then compressor shut off and then just the fan pushed (still) warm air out.
Our bedroom AC is the independent model with the control knobs on the the bottom panel of the unit. I ended up replacing the whole bottom panel which includes the integrated control thermostat dial-knob/switch and on/off operation mode switch knob. It all comes as one replacement part for around $100. After replacing the control/thermostat panel my unit now runs for as long as it takes to cool the bedroom down before switching to fan and then cycles back on to cool as needed. I wish I would have done this sooner.

Your surge protector should tell you if campground power is bad.

Does anyone know if the Eagle 355MBQS has an energy management system? I reached out to a/c manufacturer and they asked. I know there is a Xantrek Freedom 1200 but I I'm not sure I use that on shore power. Or maybe it's on and it shouldn't be?

If the unit is a low profile, is the condenser fan running?
