SOURCE: will not shut off

Sounds like a stuck relay on the unit itself. Maybe there is a short in the control wire that comes from the thermostat that activates the fan.

The thermostat probably has one hot wire at all times. The thermostat then chooses which wire to send the voltage down based on your selection. One of those wires is probably for the fan only. Make sure that it is in good condition (no bare, pinched or wires)

SOURCE: RV air conditioner. Compressor running, fan stops before cool

The fan motor is getting hot and going off on the internal overload in the motor.
This is caused by either a low voltage, a bad capacitor, or tight or dry bearings in the motor.
To check the bearings turn the power off to the unit, then spin the fan blade if it spins freely then the bearings are ok.
To check the capacitor you will need some kind of tester or you can buy a capacitor and replace it, that's what a lot of people do. They usually don't cost very much.
To check the voltage you will need a voltmeter and measure the volts at the unit.

SOURCE: AC compressor will not engage

It could be the capacitor, it could be a loose wire connection, it could be a delay switch or a contactor/relay.

My dometic roof air works fine in the daytime but at night it shuts down and try to restart on and on others have said they replaced the stat and still the same problem,any other ideas

Change the automatic temperature detection settings. Many of these Dometic systems have an automatic indoor outdoor temperature gauge that determines when it shuts off. This is separate from the normal thermostat. When the outdoor temperature reaches close to the indoor set temperature the unit shuts off.
