Compressor takes a few tries to turn on
You either hve a weak run capacitor or yoou have a Thermal expansion valve on the indoor coil and your compressor requires a Kickstart or hard start device .
Weak comperessor you need to test it first...or you may have something that jaming the fan
I touched the cooling and 24 volt at the thermostat and the compressor fired right up but when in the regular cooling cycle the condenser fan will run but the compressor will hum every few mins like it is trying to start (delay im guessing). it takes about 15 to 20 min before the compressor will turn on.
