Hi All,
My 1987 Dolphin is new to us, and we've had quite a bit of rain lately. I've been checking the inside for leaks and haven't found any yet. But today, I plugged it up to shore power and turned on the AC (which has worked great so far), and a large amount of water started coming out. I immediately turned it off and upon further inspection, the tray on the bottom of the AC unit inside the rv was completely full of water. I got a huge tuperware and took the bottom cover off and dumped it out.
I ran the AC a couple times on my way home from buying the Dolphin, and didn't have any issues while it was running. My guess is that the roof seal/gasket for the AC unit is bad and is letting in rain water that's filling up the tray, and the gasket needs to be replaced. Am I thinking correctly?? This is all a bit new to me, does anyone else have any thoughts or other possibilities to check before I try to take the AC unit off the roof?
Also, I got on the roof and took the cover off the AC, but haven't attempted to remove it yet. It's a Coleman AC unit. Is this going to be a difficult job for a rookie like myself??
