Fuse location on a Samsung AW12EC87 window unit air conditioner.
I have a Samsung Window Unit, model AW12EC87. I think I need to replace the fuse inside but have no idea where it is located. There is noi power at all on the display. The light on the plug is on and goes off when you press the test button and comes back on when you press reset, so I know the unit is getting power. I do not have the owners manual, just need to know where the fuse is and how to get at it. Thanks for any help!!!!
I have had the sad experience trying to get help from Soleus Air on repair parts for this problem. It's the condenser coil blower wheel that has come apart (plastic piece). Order a quality replacement blower wheel kit at: www.shop.soleusparts.com

window air conditioners do not have high voltage fuses. You should have the outlet going to a dedicated fuse/breaker on your house power panel.
If your unit has a digital display that circuit will have a low voltage fuse. This is common design with all window units that I have seen the last 28 years.
Has this air conditoner been running on these fuses for awhile, and is it just now starting to blow the fuses? If so then have a short in the air conditioner. If this is the first time you're trying to run this unit on these fuses, then you need to check the rating plate on the air conditioner for the full or rated load amps and see if your fuses or the outlet rating will carry the amps the unit is drawing.
Is this a split system? If it is then the fuse or breaker is in the disconnect box on the wall by the outside unit. You will see a grey flex conduit running from the unit to the box which is grey, it carries your 230 volt wires. Inside that box will either be fuses or a breaker.
If it's a window unit then it will be the breaker that supplies the power to that outlet.
tilt the unit toward the back so it will drain toward the back or you will have a mess on your hands,tilt it just about 1/2 in so the water runs toward the back and drains outside and very important to air filter clean
