mkcoen, You guys are out in front of me on the install. I have what I believe is the main return line from the evaporator to the compressor (big fat long hose). I have been playing around with how that hose routes down from the main unit to the compressor so let me know how you routed it. I have...

ok great info I corrected my last post as well as the big list and cited credit to Keith_J with a quote from your post as well.

Let me clarify my last post... When referring to Gen1 and Gen2 I am talking about the cab main unit with the controls. I have not seen the different versions of the condenser so I don't want to call them Gen1/Gen2. Although, why not start calling them Gen2 Condensers (with the L brackets) and...

Ok. Will look at my condenser harness in the morning. There should be the 4 pin to the condenser harness from the main unit, then a 2 pin to the dryer, and a second 2 pin that goes to the compressor. We may have a situation where there are two unknown pigtails that complete the connections to...

OK, the heat must be getting to me I think I understand now what you want... Pin outs for the 4 pin connector from the main AC unit Gen2 (not sure if Gen1 wires are the same colors) Evaporator side colors: Black goes to fan ground Yellow goes to high pressure switch ( I think this is what you...

It would explain you blowing the 15A 12v fuse then the 20A. At 25A and 12v it can handle 300 watts. Using volts times amps a 30A 12v fuse would be the equivalent of a 15A 24v fuse... 360 watts. And why the Gen2 15A 24v breaker didn't trip on the unit.

ok, just wondering on fuses... Yep, on the panel lights only 12v use, I had that in #6 on my list. I tapped that line for my aux switch panel lights. Well, I am thinking there is a difference in 12v vs 24v fuses.. would be a neat test to try a 15a 24v fuse in there. watts = volts x amps right...

That's interesting... hmmm. Good note on the power usage. That 5 minute run on 20 amp fuse then blowing... Did you touch the wiring and see if it was hot? I am not an electrical engineer but I wonder if the combo of the fuse at one end and the breaker at the unit would cause the first fuse...

Quick update... I wired up the additional 24v power source for the Gen2 AC. I didn't want to purchase a $300 crimp tool for the military grade power connectors so I just ordered waterproof 2 wire connectors from Amazon and soldered it on. Tapped power from the PDS. The aux power is used to power...

Starting a new thread to have this info easily available. I will be updating this post with pictures and other information scattered throughout this forum. Some info and pics were gathered from others who are on the quest for a cooler cab. As I add pictures I will probably group these details in...
