Tom,
I am having the same problem only mine are tripping the breakers. How would I find the reversing valve to see if that is the problem.
Thank you
Steve

Steve, you can almost always rule out the reversing valve.
Give us a bit more info.
When do the breakers trip? Immediately when starting, after running awhile, only when both units run etc.
What breakers trip? The main on the boat, at the pedestal or the individual unit breakers.
