What is your power source?

If your not getting enough juice it won't start. Try it on generator power, if it runs your power source isn't strong enough.

Why do you need an AC in 41 degree weather?

Check the wires going in the grey box above the air filter. Mine had a loose small grey or white wire that is a sensor.

Are you at a campground and plugged into a 30amp circuit?

Yes. Actually speaking the rest of the worlds language. Americans are the only ones with the imperial system lol. And it doesn't work with the generator either

I was joking, of course! As an American that has lived in Canada for 30 years, I'm "bilingual" in Fahrenheit/Celsius and Kilometers/miles.
Anyhow, sorry to hijack, hope you get your issue sorted out
