the device is most likely low on refrigerant, you need to have it charged which means, more needs to be added. This could also be caused by inadequate air flow but most likely the refrigerant is low because of a leak and only a certified repairman can usually fill them and fix them. If you continue to run it the way it is, you will most likely damage the pump. Please let me know of any other questions you may have and I would be more than happy to answer them.

good luck on getting this fixed

SOURCE: Kelvinator Split System Air Conditioner not turning on.

On some remotes there is a reset button which is pressed by using the nib of a pen. Or if this does not work you should look under the cover for a manual button, most units have one, and see if the aircon responds. I suspect your remote sensor is faulty, but try the previous suggestions first.

SOURCE: air conditioner tries to start but kicks back out

Hi. are you saying that the unit tries to start up....do you mean the compressor only or that the unit does come on fan and all, runs for a short time and shuts off completely?? I just need to no what it is doing on start up before it kicks out, this would be very helpful in solving this for you. If it trips the breaker or not or does anything at all run for a second. Please let me know and I can have a solution for you. Thank You.

SOURCE: My goldstar window air conditioner was working

Hi, did the surge /protectors/breakers on the cord reset? If they tried to reset then cut off again, you have a short in a component. Check the breaker that supplies the units wall plug to see if it may be tripped. If it is, it will be in the mid position and turn it off hard, and right back on hard. Hopefully it will hold. Do this, if the breaker is tripped, reset it and if it trips again, go to the a/c and unplug it. Now, reset it and it will hold. If you have a part, motor, compressor, or what ever is shorted to ground, when you plug it in and turn it on it should trip the cord and maybe the breaker to. Check these things I have told you and see what happens. If the unit does start up and start to cool, it overloaded for some reason. A part getting ready to go out, drawing to many amps and tripping cord or breaker. You will need to try and service some of it if it is coming on. Go outside and take your garden hose and give the outdoor coil a good washing. It builds up dirt and will cause high head pressures in the unit which in turn will cause it to overload and shut off everything. Clean it well. Inside, make sure the filter is clean behind the cover on the front and the evaporator coil is also clean. Dirt is a killer of these units and should be serviced at least once a year before it gets hot out side. So, do these things, leave the cord unplugged when washing out side, and we can go from there. If it starts to work good after you clean and service it, that was your problem, but keep me posted on this. I need to no the out come. We can take other steps if needed. Please be kind when you rate me for my help, if you feel I was of help. I will be here to help you more if needed.
Sincerely,

Ac freezing

for a homeowner the first thing to check is the filter. also make sure the fan inside is running. once the coil freezes it does make it more difficult to push air so coil must thaw. don't continue to run unit if you see ice, you are only harming the system. if checks are good you likely have refrigerant issues and need a technician

What to do to fix the E1 error on a haier her08xc7

Push buttons about five times each beforjust to make sure they are not stuck....then......Turn the air conditioner OFF and unplug it. NOTE: The air conditioner must be unplugged for the automatic filter clean timer to reset. Clean the filter. See the Care and Cleaning section in your use and care manual. After cleaning, replace the filter and plug the air conditioner back in.

Other forums say the E1 code is because the AC thinks a button is stuck or because it's dirty, but almost all of them say to use the remote and it'll work ok.

My power went out after the power came back on my air conditioner reads e1

E1 might be a stuck key on the keypad... they are sometimes flakey .. maybe water getting into the keypad ... at any rate the remote control usually still works .. eventually sometimes the key pad starts to work again (maybe when it dries out)

So, based on solutions from those other sites, I pulled off the front panel, turned it over and removed the 4 screws from the back of the control pad (not the six screws on the outer perimeter). I looked for a stuck button but did not find one. I just pushed all the buttons a few times in case one was stuck (as suggested on other sites) and that did it!

Hope helps.

We have a ge air conditioner and we just plugged it in for the summer and it wont turn on when you push the power button it starts blinking ES and wont turn on

On our a/c the remote button was stuck, not allowing any others either on the remote or the unit itself to work. Once my wife discovered which one was stuck, every button started working again.

Air Conditioner just idles and never blows air never used it before

See if you can spin the fan motor. If not look for the cause something bent or a fan blade pushed out of line. Or maybe stuck bearings. If it spins the problem may not be the motor but further checking is required to eliminate that or proceed to where the problem is.

If so the problem may be in the switching or board if equipped with one. A voltage check will eliminate or send you to the area that needs checking. If this is not your area of expertise call or take to a pro for service.

Please rate me as high as you can and thank you for using fixya.

Ac unit not powering / starting up

Did you try to plug a lamp into the same outlet as you have the A/C plugged into? It could be that you have no power at the outlet or the circuit breaker could be off or tripped. Something should run like the fan only position.
