To plug or not to plug
I have a question, should I leave the A/C plugged into the wall while transporting or am I supposed to unplug it and store the cord in the receptacle? I have a 2000 290B.

I unplug for piece of mind. I think the cord may rub on the outside of the trailer when the top is down.
|
Never thought about it. I leave mine plugged in. I haven't seen any damage from leaving it plugged in.

It's meant to be unplugged or they wouldn't have put a plug and a place to store the cord. I had mine pulled out all the way and for got to unplug it, the next time I put the top up it got caught between the seal and the bottom scuffed everything up.

unplug
I diddnt think it mattered, until I raised the top on Thursday. The cord (which was plugged in) had looped under the bathroom faucet. so when it raised, the ceiling was damaged where the wire pulls through. bummer. live n learn. I will be an "unplugger" from now on.

Interesting, mine is an 85 model and you have to plug the air conditioner in from the outside, it has a separate cord that runs from the storage to the air conditioner
|
Well heck. You don't have the option of unplugging it in my model trailer. :p

Thanks for the comments, my cord is in the back bedroom and doens't look like it can get caught on anything but you never know. I haven't unplugged it yet the 5 or 6 times I have used the trailer, but I am relatively new to my trailer (got it in April)
|
i have never used mine because i do not have a roof top air unit installed yet.

My a/c cord is also in the back bedroom. I unplug it each time before we lower the top, but I just let the cord dangle. Where the cord comes out from the bottom of the overhead cabinet, it is far enough away from the side wall. I don't worry about it getting caught between the upper and lower wall while lowering. Been doing it this way since 2001.
