Jennifer you have either bad news or worse news. There is a safety switch that will shut down the compressor if the Freon charge drops below a certain pressure. The worse news is you will experience the same symptoms if the compressor is shot. Mine did exactly the same thing a year ago and it was the compressor. With these modern units about the only way you get a new compressor is attached to a new unit. Mine was about $3200 installed.

I have a work order through my so called home warranty that should have a guy here on Monday, but in the meantime we are really hot. I thought I would describe the problem and maybe you all will have a simple answer. I sure hope so. It comes on inside and acts normal, just no cold air. The outside unit will try to come on and then quits. We reset the circuit breaker and changed the fuses in case that did it, but is there something else I could check?
