Airstream service/maintenance appointmentnts

I am not sure what is more difficult finding a camp site or getting an appointment at the dealership. Our AC has gone out and tried to get an appointment at the AS dealer. I was told the earliest they could get to it was in mid Oct. Unfortunately that does me no good as one needs AC in the summer time.

I understand, however, not all repair folks will work on an AS. Also many of the mobile trucks are booked out two to three weeks. I did find an RV dealer that was willing to diagnose the issue and fix if necessary but depending on the issue I was told it may be difficult to get the part.

Perhaps you could consult the A/C threads on the Forum and maybe you can fix it. There are also books available on RV repairs.

I have found RV shops can be booked up for many moons. A lot of RV’s have been sold in the past few years. Many brands break a lot and now they are rushing them out the doors, so if you are looking for a new profession, RV repair is a possibility.

I have looked at the threads and also talked to a few technicians and was given some ideas but unfortunately it leads to either a bad board or condenser. I will be having a tech doing a diagnostic test later this week and then go from there. Do knees I have no desire to climb on top of the AS
