Main AC
Anyone know what this is??
On main AC it's making a lot of racket and shakes like crazy.......
Not running it obviously.
Thanks

Guessing that's the fan motor. Possible the fan blade may have broken a fin off, causing the out of balance vibration.

I agree with the fan motor. Fan blade or bad bearing. Should be easy to repair.

Get on the roof and open up the cover to the ac to check the fan blade. On a previous rig, I had the same thing happen to me and it turned out to be a mud dauber nest on one of the blades.

Had the same problem once. Took the fan motor out and found a mud dauber nest on one of the fan blades. Removed the nest, no more problems.

Tom I pulled the cover this morning and from what I saw blades all look fine. Not sure exactly what the pic I took is, but that is what is shaking like crazy.
AC was working fine as of Friday. We left Saturday am early and towed about 225 miles.
Trailer sat at car dealer yesterday from 8am til around 3pm.
Towed another 100 miles and plugged in at RV park and AC started doing this........
Thanks

Wow! That'll cause some serious vibration. Was there something foreign inside that caused it, or did they just come apart?

I don't think it was the blower blade. I believe it's the 3 bladed blade on top that had the issues.

Glad you found it. The plastic fan blades did have a problem a while back, and they changed the design. I think it was the six bladed fans had the breakage issue.
