Got to the second cause and called my Profesional friend to confirm my opinion.

He confirmed that a freon leak could never cause the evaporator to freeze! I could get into the details, but instead I will just state that someone wrote an article to drum up some business, or has limited knowledge of refrigeration!

Check periodically that the drain tube is not blocked. Ours gets all types of things in it, then the condensate water goes everywhere.
Looking at our 2020 just now the large openings are open and there is foam filter material further into the "recesses"

Well, my dash a/c went kaput on this trip. I noticed it as I was slogging up Mt Everest near @Deer Springs RV Park. As an alternative, I found that running the house a/c units with the dash air set to recirculate kept things comfortable up front.

I’m certain I have a leak somewhere and there isn’t enough pressure on the low side to allow the pressure switch to engage.

Is this related to the topic of this thread? It’s certainly coincidental if not.

When low pressure ,the sw will keep the compressor clutch from engaging!

Maybe you can go to FL Gaffney and wait on standby to get it looked at as you're not far from them at @Deer Springs RV Park. I did a standby visit once, got serviced around day 3 as I showed up on Monday. Not bad.

If you are in an area where it is somewhat humid, you should leave the dash air in recirculate when you have the AC mode on. There are plenty of air paths into your coach for fresh air and you are not introducing more moisture that the coil has to remove.
