For this job, I was checking up on two air-conditioning units. One is for the upstairs and this one is operating perfectly. At this time. I replaced the filter checked all electrical components and everything isn’t working order. We just wanna keep an eye on the outdoor capacitor. After checking the larger 3 ton unit which heats and cools the basement and the main floor. It was clear that the system was often times short cycling because it was going into thermal overload. It was going into thermal overload because the condenser was overheating due to the fact that the fan would only turn on About 60% of the time. Because of this the condenser has been put through a lot and is starting to grind. the fan itself needs to be replaced and the capacitor at the very least. However, I’m afraid that it’s done permanent damage to the condenser so I’m recommending either a full system or at least an AC coil and condenser.
