Hi,
There can be a couple of things that could be happening...
The first and easiest thing is to check the air filter. Make sure that it is clean... clean it or replace it. Next check the air vents to make sure that they are open and giving you good air flow...
Also check to make sure that you are not icing up on the indoor coil... ice will tell you that you are low on refrigerant. You also could be low and not be icing over, but you would need to have gauges on the unit to check that.
Finally check and clean the outdoor coil...this also can give you problems if the heat is not being removed from the outdoor unit efficiently...
You may also have a unit that is sized in such a way that it hits the balance point at about 85...that means that your heat gain is equal to the capacity of the unit...I often try to size them for about that here in Northern PA. because wqhen seldom get hotter then that and the unit then is much more effective at removeing humidity at lower temperatures...

Here is one about cleaning the condenser coil and at the bottom of that one are links to others..

CHECK BREAKER AT MAIN BOX , SHUT OFF BREAKER ALL THE WAY OFF AND BACK ON. IF YOU DO NOT HAVE BLOWER WHEN YOU TURN FAN SWITCH TO ON THEN YOU STIIL HAVE NO POWER TO UNIT . GO TO OUT SIDE UNIT ON GROUND AND PULL OUT DISCONNECT FUSES AND TEST THEM OUT OF FUSE HOLDER LIKE AUTO FUSES. IF UNIT IS ON ROOF SHOULD HAVE FUSES UP ON ROOF IN 6  X4 GRAY BOX. SHUT OFF BREAKER FIRST BEFORE FUSE TEST. IF FUSES OK AND BREAKER OK THAN YOU MIGHT HAVE BLOWN TRANSFORMER.

ACs are designed to cool down to about 68^F, don't think it has a chance of doing what you want w/o re-engineering the system which is not really an option.

If it's the cord, It should have a plug on it unless someone cut it off.which some people do to hardwire into an outlet. There should be three wires inside an outer cover of rubber. Black, white ,and green. If so, that should be the power cord. You may have to install a new three pronged plug. Good Luck.

CLEAN YOUR FILTER THEN UNPLUG YOUR UNIT AND REPLUG IT AFTER ABOUT A MINUTE

Sounds like the control electronics are faulty. Replace control unit.

There may be a starting delay built in, which will not allow restarting within 5 or 10 minutes. Other than that, the control unit may be faulty & require replacement.

Take it into a local refrigeration repair shop. It will save you the callout fee. It likely just needs a top up of refrigerant gas, as mine did.

Question edited for clarity, full make model (what it is)/ Question moved from 'Yes Televisions'. :>) Check out the first video, but the best idea is to put it in your car and take to a refrigeration engineer for service. https://www.google.com/search?q=Danby+Idylis+model+416711+won%27t+stay+on ..

any hvac service shop called and arrived can find the noise and fix it. learn to call for real live help. nobody on the internet in text box can fix it. repairs are human hands on eyes on event. for ever. until R2D2 gets 10 upgrades in 2050? (i bet not) yes all or most machines made by man make noise. fans and motors make noise and shake and then other parts do if loose. and if too much noise? IT need to be dismantled and discovered why., it does. even bent or dislodges parts. we look with real eyes. and more lots more I will skip all tests I do. but believe it. even not reading the install manual to see omg shipping protection devices inside, must be removed ! the manual was clear.. buy a new computer printer and omg lots of those. learn that shipping things 12,000 miles from china things can break ever been on the high Sea's ,brutal. and worse trucking even 6 G forces at bay. so the maker puts in protective devices. and most times the box open day1. you see this huge yELLOW paper that says read me first and most folk do not and fail. or love to wing it, and faIL.

It's the timer option... while you press reset, hold the mode button.. it worked for us.

The 5000 is designed to evaporate all condensation produced. When on extremely hot and humid days if machine produces excess moisture it is normal for machine to drip from back. No, do not drill a hole. Your unit is ok.

Possibly because the sensor is still wet. Unplug it for a bit.
