No more sweating in your house! Congrats man. Wish I had a proper ac, but I live in a rental apartment in a "high rise" (it only has like four or five floors).
I live in an appartment as well, but it's not a rental, it's mine. It was the only thing I could afford 🤷.
Still, thanks ☺️. It's great to have it working again, it was busted since last year, but it was end of season, so I didn't acually need to fix it right away. Than I was too lazy to take a look at it (my fault, I admit that), and then the summer came and again, I postponed for later, till finally I didn't even wanna go home, and said, enough is enough, get your ass in gear, fix that damn thing! Took about a 10 days, but it was worth it. Couldn't really afford a new unit, they're way too expensive nowadays.
And what do you mean you don't have proper AC, don't they have central AC?
What was wrong with it? I think ours is going because sometimes the exhaust fan doesn't start and then it just blows hot air.
It was the realy for the external unit. It wouldn't start at all, but the realy checked out when tested externally (off board). As it turns out, it's a bit worn out. It doesn't flip, but only when excited with the realy driver on board. If you put enough current through it, like from an external power source, it checks out, so that's why I didn't catch it the first time around. Finally, that was the only thing left, so I decided to change it, and it just started working, the external unit kicked in 🥳 ☺️.
In your case, it may be the realy for the compressor. The compressor doesn't start, so it just blows hot air (basically, circulating the hot air). You might wanna check the control board, it should be the largest relay on the board. That was the case with mine as well, no errors, nothing, the internal unit kicks in, but blows hot air. The external unit never kicked in after that, ever... until I fixed it.
Air conditioner or armor class?
Lol, I wish it was armor class 😂. I'd fix it and sell it, then get a house with a proper AC 🤣.
