Dometic AC issues

I had a tech look at my bedroom AC unit, came back with a 12v interference problem but can't find out where its coming from, any ideas? 2013 Big SKy 3402RL

I'm not sure what kind of diagnosis that is, but these are fairly simple systems. Under each A/C, there is a control box that works with the thermostat. From the thermostat, there is a cable that looks like a telephone cable but is wired differently. The cable goes to the rear A/C, which is zone 1, then from the zone 1 A/C another cable connects the control box to the control box under the bedroom A/C, zone 2. The furnace is connected to the control box under zone 1 A/C. So, you have the thermostat, two control boxes, two runs of phone cable, also a remote temperature sensor on the bedroom ceiling that tells the thermostat what the temperature is in the bedroom, and of course wiring from the furnace to the zone 1 thermostat.

We lost the front A/C function years ago, and after some digging, found corrosion on the circuit board in the box below the A/C in the bedroom. I replaced the box and have had no issues since, and never did figure out why the circuit board was corroded. Hopefully you can find a tech that can really figure out what component has failed. The photo below is of that circuit board.
