If you are not handy or confident do not attempt. Just sharing what I did.
Working through all the things in the new trailer that don't work well. the air conditioner was high on the list. found the unit would short cycle and struggle to cool the trailer. a little research I found some suggestions.
I purchased a 10k thermister from Blackhawk supply.

I think it looks very good.
The meat of the mod is opening up the ac from inside the trailer and removing the black control box to make it easier to work with. there is a short black wire pair with a black plastic dipped sensor on it. I removed DC and AC power from the trailer and cut this sensor off leaving as much wire as possible from the control box. I located the brown wire that runs from the control box to the temp display control panel located on the wall by the bathroom. the brown wire is multi conductor and had three unused wires. I stripped the brown cover back further to be able to work with the unused wires. I used the heat shrink solder connectors...,I added a 6.inchnpiece if black and red wire to make it more serviceable.
on the display control side you twist it to the left to remove from wall and connect the thermister to the same wires you used on the ac side. there is no polarity. works like a champ
