Possible Causes

Failed internal partition fan or damper, air leak between zones, incorrect sensor placement, control board not regulating zones independently

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the unit before removing interior panels between zones.

Steps:

  • Inspect partition: Remove the partition cover between zones and check for missing or damaged insulation.
  • Check zone fan/damper: Some Dometic dual-zone models use a zone circulation fan or damper. Verify it operates and is not stuck open or closed.
  • Sensor placement: Ensure upper and lower zone sensors are in their correct positions and not swapped.
  • Control board: If hardware is correct but zones still track together, the zone control PCB or main board may not be regulating independently and may need replacement.
