The Dometic model B59516 is showing up as a Brisk II 15K BTU unit so the only thing you'll need to check is what style connector your current unit has. If you remove the cover for the air distribution box inside the trailer you should see the controller and a wire harness hanging down from the rooftop unit that plugs into the controller. It should have either a 6-pin or 9-pin harness (pictured below).

If you have a 6-pin harness then I recommend the Furrion Chill HE Replacement RV Air Conditioner Unit # FR58PR. If you have a 9-pin connector then you'll need part # FR42PV instead to get the wire harness adapter to make the it a plug-and-play replacement.

@Joseph You are going to need a whole new set-up at this point. The reason being that RV air conditioner refrigerant changed this year, moving from the old R410a to the new R32. The R32 is better for the environment and more efficient than R410a, making it a win-win. The downside is that the new R32 parts are not compatible with the old R410a parts, which is why you’ll require a complete new system. Since you’ll be replacing everything, I recommend going ahead and upgrading to the new Furrion 18K. If you have a ducted system # FR69TD, and for ductless # FR59TD. I’ve also attached a review video for you to check out. What kind of camper is this going in?
