Hey Steve, we have a new problem that suddenly developed. The AC has been running great, but out of the blue it's now overcharging the amperage and causing the breaker to trip. Is this likely a wiring problem, a breaker issue, a bad pump or compressor, or something else? Any input about where to begin looking would be much appreciated.

Hi Will~

It can be any of the above things you mention…

What is your voltage ?…and Have you tried it on the generator ?

At what amperage does the breaker trip ?

Does the breaker trip instantly ? and if not is water pumping overboard ?

Steve~
