    AC cools but condenser stops

    On really warm days when the AC is running the condenser stops briefly for 5 - 15 seconds and then starts again. Does not seem to affect cooling just wondering if anyone else has had this happen?

    With the momentary stop of the compressor do you hear a difference in the fan speed before and after?

    Some ACs automatically change fan speed depending on the temperature in the coach and set thermostat set point.

    On the thermostat you have Cold, fan hi, fan low. But if you keep cycling you will see Cold, fan hi Auto and Cold fan low Auto. If the fan is not set on the auto function it will not shut off when the compressor stops.

    If you have the EMS system it's possible that the EMS is sluffing the compressor to keep the line load appropriate.
