I have and 18K BTU wall unit. It worked fine for years. Yesterday it worked as normal. Today when we turned the fan on it hummed. when we turned the knob to low A/C it hummed louder. I checked the fan/motor shaft and it turns freely and there appears to be nothing wrong. What's the problem, the Cap, the main power knob? Help.

a real hummer. humm can be the sound of a short.but it sounds since u did only turn the fan on it hummed ...fanns are blower motors in acs the motor I bet ate it and needs a new one no way of fixing the motor but most are easy and cheap to replace...go or call an ac applance man ...see if he got a good used one for you or go the manufacture take model make serial no. sometimes u can spin the fan while on and it takes off again...this is dangerous so use a plastic long something but will dy again after u turn it off.
good luck.
