Correct, the Carrier Adapter Wiring Kit for Advent Air RV Air Conditioners part # ACCARKIT will not work with Carrier Air V RV Air Conditioner if it has the heat pump. Since you do have the heat pump you will need to replace the distribution box as well with the Air Distribution Box w/ Built-In Thermostat part # ACDB.
