2020 320-s, air conditioner pumps out hot (room temp ) air, set on AC,

Followed instructions, all we are getting is hot air, any advice?

Is that the Air8?  How hot is it outside?  Try venting the hot air out of the trailer using the fan and windows.

Can you take a picture of how you set the control panel?

It was 94 here on the Columbia River in Oregon. Yes it is an Air8. Yep, had overhead fan on and all windows open. This is the second trip where I have tried to get it working and when the temps were over 90. This is our 5 trip in our new ( bought in May ) 320-s.
Going home now, last night "camping". Going by dealer on way to Eugene, Maybe they will take a look..

Had it been working properly previously and when you turned it on this time, it wasn't?
Were you running the A/C unit and it suddenly stopped cooling?

If the fan is set on Manual it will run without the A/C compressor running (no cooling). If you set the fan on "Auto", theoretically the faw will shut down and only turn on when the compressor fires up. 

Turn panel off and disconnect shore power. Connect shore power, turn panel on. Set to A/C mode, turn thermostat down to it's lowest setting (believe it's around 63), turn Fan to "Auto." Wait a few moments and it should begin cooling. 

Assuming the panel is set correctly typically a lack of cooling can be attributed to loss of coolant (leaks or blocked lines), frozen or dirty evaporator coils, or compressor failure. I've heard of issues with the panel itself so pulling that off the wall may reveal an issue with wiring at the rear of the panel. 

Good luck! Let us know what you find.

61 is the lowest. 😁

I have found ut performs much better if you get ahead of the temps. Don't wait until itnis 85 to turn on the AC. Ut has to work a lot harder to catch up than it does to keep up.

@jkjenn
That's right...61. Knew it was around there somewhere!

Stopped at the dealership that we bought our 320-s at..on the way home from our trip. After 3 hours ( I was glad they had an open schedule to look at our Air8 AC system) the tech said the compressor is faulty, not working, we need a new one. It never did work.
They may have it by October.

AirBoss

Sorry to hear it was the compressor, especially given the fact that your rig is a 2020. 

Hopefully the dealer will stay on this. Good luck.

Yeah, we will be taking trips to the coast....End of October for new AC...
