I have a 2013 177 and before I winterized it last Fall I discovered an issue with the AC. It was working fine, then the next day it started with a loud knocking sound then tripped the circuit breaker on the shore power it was connected to. I tried to fiddle with it and checked it again the next day, same result. This is a Dometic unit. I'm fearful it may be seriously broken. Googling didn't reveal an obvious solution.
So... anyone know what might be wrong and if it is fixable?
Any advice on getting a repair done if it's something I can't fix myself? (I assume just any RV place I can find, but I've had mixed experiences on that.)
And, if I do have to replace, should I get a different brand/unit? I've heard some chatter that other brands are quieter.
