I have a 2002 Chaparral 26RLS. While on our last trip a couple weeks ago I started hearing a disconcerting noise from the overhead AC unit. The thermostat was set to OFF. The noise is intermittent and sounds like a contactor making/breaking. So I turned off the breaker for the AC/furnace. Still get the noise. Took off the air vent cover and there is an electrical connection box there. Opened up the cover on that box and there is a 3Amp spade fuse on what appears to be a control board. Pulled the fuse and the noise stopped. Any ideas what the cause might be?
