We have owned our new Bighorn 3670RL for about 2 weeks now, and have been having problems with the rear 15K unit.
The dealer is coming out Friday to look at it, but since this is my first 15K unit with a wall mounted thermostat control, I have a few questions.
Here's the problems
Water dripping inside. Thermostat set to AC, auto (or on either way it drips), fan HI, and about 75 degrees. Drain hole is clean looking from outside unit. Also when raining NO drips from unit, so seal should be ok.
They say this unit has a freeze sensor, that may have come loose.
ok that may be one problem.
Now when I turn the thermostat to the off position, fan to auto and slide the temp all the way up, the unit will still cycle on and off. I finally shut the breaker off to keep the unit from running.
The front AC a 13k unit was installed at dealer, is working great.
now the questions
What would cause the the unit to cycle off/on with thermostat set to off? Is it the AC unit or the thermostat that could be causing the problem?

1. Is the unit level or pitched so the drain hole is on the downhill side?
2. How long does the unit run before it starts dripping?
3. If yes on #1 and under 15 minutes on #2 turn the unit to off but fan to on and let it stop dripping (give it awhile to evap off some of the condensate), then turn the A/C back on and try the fan on medium speed and see if it does it.
Let us know what happens.

There are basically 3 (or 4 depending on how you count) things that cause dripping
1: Rig not leveled properly.. I find that if I'm down just a touch in front my level sensor is happy but I take a shower in the back of the MH
2: DIRT! and/or debris This is the 3/4 issue as 2A is in the water tray INSIDE the AC, remove the cover and inspect, #2b is on the evaporator coils allowing the water to drip off in such a way as it misses the water tray
3: Rare, leak in the drip tray
