Run it +5 -10 continuous, probably what the cold place has theirs set at any way, see if it holds that on low idle. Then bump it to 0
what year is the trailer? 6+ years old with hot product on 90* days will be sure to keep it screamingLast edited: Aug 17, 2025 at 1:35 PM

In the meantime, I would get a piece of wire and try sticking it in the drain hoses and see if you can get some water to drain out.

IH Truck Guy Thanks this.

I put a long wire in the drain hose and its not blocked with something but this part was wet when it’s working and i just push the defrost button again and then this part got frozen.update: now its wet again.

There’s a check valve in there not holding the Freon back when the 3 way valve shifts to defrost, just had to replace that on my spread axle
run 0 continuous and so when it shifts to heat it will defrost the system, depending on where you are delivering to crank her to -10 an hour or so before you hit the gate if they check, otherwise I wouldn’t worry about it
