I have inspected the outside unit, there is no debris but the fan barely turns. I can spin it by hand but it won't stay spinning. I have also verified it is getting power. Is there a reset button? If so, where is it?

- Yes, it is humming. Can you approximate the cost to repair? Is this a diy thing or one better left to a professional?
Is it humming? If so you may have a bad capacitor and or fan motor.

- If you have average mechanical skills you can do it. Make sure you get an exact replacement motor and mark your wires so they go back in the same place. A motor probably around $75-$100. I would try a capacitor first though for $10 or so. If it doesn't fix it, you'll still have it for the new motor which a capacitor should be installed with the new motor anyway. Make sure power is off before starting. *Note the capacitor looks like a little tin can and should be mounted in the outside unit control panel. If it is swollen or oily you probably have found your problem. They can be bad though without these tell tale signs.
