My wife and I are getting ready to go on a 8 day cruise and the Webasto AC control panel shows an E3 code and the unit is not blowing cold air. E3 is a compressor low pressure protection. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Good water flow from the pump?

Extremely good water flow. That was my problem with an E2 code which was to high pressure. Flushed system good and has been working fine for two months.

Does the compressor come on at all? I believe the pump comes on first then about a minute later compressor should come on.
I had a lot of issues with mine. A couple things to try.
Try turning it to heat and see if it produces heat. There is a reversing valve that may be stuck. The other thing I did was unplug the thermostat control (wire on back of control) , wait 10 seconds and plug it back in. It would clear the code and work .
My issues eventually got worse and the unit had to be replaced.
They said the coolant leaked out.

I might be wrong but i believe the high/low pressure codes are referring to the refrigerant pressure not water pressure.
