I have an amana portable electronic air conditioner wont turn on

Compressor has a problem internally.

all a/c units remove moisture from air with cooling coil being cold and room air blowing across coil - depends how humid it is - i have used several different portable units and this seems to be a common problem if it is humid

have to clean coil and pan with bleach and water.

14,000 btu is a very large unit it should be on a dedicated cuircut of either 15 or 20 amps all by itself.check the rating plate for correct amperage

The Amana portable a/c units have their documentation at Haier America. The direct link to the manual you want is here: http://crm.haieramerica.com/PUBLIC/User%20manual%20AP148D.pdf . If you want to buy the manual, go to http://www.partstore.com/Model/HAIER+AMERICA+TRADING/Haier/AP148D/Other+Cables,+Cords+%26+Wires.aspx . Scroll down to the All Parts section and then find the Use and Care Manual for $4.56. (It is a special order.)

I also found a link to the manual for the AP148DS here: http://homeappliance.manualsonline.com/ex/thread/view/idThread/295978 . However, you need to be a registered user (free registration) to access the link. Click on the Get This Manual button and the registration/login will pop up. This may be a similar enough manual to help you use the A/C.

I hope this helps.
