AC leaks

Rich,
Hopefully the pictures will be loaded. I used corrugated plastic that was used to ship a flat screen TV but any plastic should work as long as it is thick enough for strength yet flexible enough to mold to the channel. As I stated earlier, I used rope caulk to jam in the channel to hold the plastic in place and fill the hole where the wiring bundle must go through the plastic. I made the leading edge twice as tall (2") as the trailing edge (1"). Another problem I had with this air conditioner was the noise. It was much louder than the previous Jacco's AC. I first thought that was caused by the metal roof on the HI-LO as opposed by the fiberglass roof on the Jayco. But it just got louder with use. After the HI-LO rally in June I pulled off the cover and discovered the bottom bolt that goes through the motor housing was not secured to a support brace on the bottom of the AC's pan. This allowed the motor to bounce around and vibrate. There was a nut on the bolt that protruded through the brace but it had backed off. I removed the nut and added a lock washer, reinstalled the nut, cinched it down and now the AC is as quiet as one should expect from a roof mounted AC. Hope the pictures show up. Beach

Pictures are great, and I can see the problem, Mine didn't leak after I moved the thermostat tube, not sure what that had to do with anything but it immediately stopped dripping for over a year but on our last trip it dripped again. Thanks, now I know what to do. Opening it up on a non humid day would make the problem hard to find. I am sure others will fine this helpful also.
Thanks again.
 
Yeah thanks for the pictures. It helps explain the issue better when your able to see what your talking about. It will help me and possibly others in the future if the AC starts dripping.
 
thanks..

The photos are greatly appreaciated; thanks for taking the time to help with this problem.
