Well, it was almost a stay-at-the-rig-do-nothing day. I didn’t stay at home, and I didn’t do nothing. I went in to Columbus and I worked on my AC.

So a little after 1pm, I drove into town to for a couple of errands, First up was a stop at the hardware store for some – what else – hardware to finish putting our AC back to together and up in the ceiling again.

After the hardware store, I make a stop at Brookshire Bros. to pick up a few groceries that that we forgot last night at Wal-Mart.

Getting to the rig, I started out by making up a permanent jumper that connects the fan voltage to the compressor contact, going from this

to this.

Then I re-installed the control box back up into the top of the unit. The white wire is the freeze sensor that’s mounting on the evaporator coil.

And ended up with this. All neat and buttoned up.

I still want to follow up on finding the junction box, which based on the help from Jim S, on the Yahoo American Coach Group, is probably located behind my Control Panel. But right now I want to get everything back together before we head back to Conroe on Sunday.

A number of readers have ask for more info on the Windows 10 download to either a DVD or a Flashdrive. So here’s the basic procedure.

Go to this URL:

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10

Scroll down and click on the “Download tool now” to download the “Media Creation Tool”.

Then run the program, accept the License, and click on “Create Installation Media for another PC”.

Click Next on “Language, Edition, and Architecture”.

Select which media you want to download, and click Next.

If you use a flash drive, it will erase everything already on the drive.

Let me know if you have any problems.
