How do I test my RV thermostat?
Of course, if you are trying to check your heat increase the temperature by at least 10 degrees. For an analog thermostat move the slider well past the current temperature in the direction you want the temperature to go. If you don’t hear an audible “click” then it’s likely your thermostat is the problem.
How do you test a duo therm thermostat?

What to do when your RV AC won’t turn on?
When the RV AC not turning on at all, you will need to find out if it gets the power supply. The first thing to look into is the 12V panel if the fuse is blown or the breaker is tripped.

How does a remote sensor work on an AC thermostat?
If a remote sensor is plugged into the AC unit upper board (the white 2-pin plug), then the remote sensor is automatically activated by the thermostat and the temperature sensing electronics inside the thermostat is disabled. Do not bother trying to fix the electronics on the thermostat.

Use a fan blowing on the home thermometer and the thermostat so you don’t have to wait all day for thermostat and thermometer to sync up.
