Only easy thing I can think is checking to make sure a stick hasn't falllen into the unit and has wedged so the fan on the outside unit can't turn. Yes I saw it happen once. The unit would run about one minute. Basically without this fan running the compressor high headed and shut down. If yours turns off quicker that likely isn't the problem. Almost sounds like a start capacitor or starting relay. But really hard to tell without being there etc. Ron ----- Original Message ----- From: Jennifer Jackson To: [email protected] Sent: Saturday, August 16, 2008 1:35 PM Subject: [BlindHandyMan] air conditioner
I have a forced air central unit and it is not working. 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?
