Check your cooling coil on the inside. If its freezing up your low on freon. Check your breakers also. May have one tripped.

Sounds like a bad capacitor. If you take the electrical cover off the outside unit and look at the capacitor if it's bad it will ususally be swelled up like a frozen beer can.

Hillbilly,

I hope it's just your capacitor. We just had our a/c go out as well and the same situation as yours, but it was the compressor. So instead of a few hundred dollars not to sweat to death down here it ended up being almost three thousand dollars

Hope it aint much. Had to replace ours a couple yrs ago. Could have bought a real coondog or small truck with what that cost.

We opened the windows and used a couple of big fans....lol...It was still miserable as it stayed 86 degrees all night and the humidity was 90%+...I was all about Hope & Change
