Hey everyone, not sure what I should do first... The ac has been working fine for the last 4 months, and it's just getting cold enough now to start running the heat. However, when the thermostat engages to heat, nothing is turned on. I have a ritetemp digital thermostat.

alright jeff, thanks for all the information, I really appreciate it. throwing out tomorrow!

so why did it do that? Should I toss it? bad compressor?

hey guys, before throwing the whole thing out, I tried one last thing, replacing the overload. I put it in, got it ready to turn on, and right when I plugged it in, I heard a pop. Like a fuse blowing or something. Same thing though, fans running, but no compressor.

could it be something as simple as the relay or timer being stuck or broken?

ok, so I'm pretty sure now that the compressor isn't doing anything, just sitting there. What should I do now? anything to take apart and check, or is it just junk? It would be great to fix it, let me know what's possible. Thanks again.

Jeff, I didn't notice anything about the compressor, should it be making a noise, vibrating or anything? sorry, I just don't know that much about compressors. When I turn it on, the compressor doesn't seem to be doing anything, (Softball sized enclosed metal ball, ha) I'm guessing that's the...

Hey everyone, just wondering what I should do! I had this refrigerator sitting outside (sun) for about a month or so, I finally had time to clean it up and get it inside to convert to kegerator. I turned it on for the first time and everything seems to be fine, but no cool air inside. Didn't...

Ok, cool, I think the second thermostat would be the way to go, however the original one is across the house from my room (only about 15 yards) so how could I get the wiring from the ac unit/old thermostat to my room. All in the attic

Hey guys, I was wondering if I could rig my thermostat at a certain temperature, so my roomate couldn't turn the place into a freezer, and cost me a fortune in bills! Anyway to do it? It's a battery powered "Maple Chase" digital thermostat. any help would be great. ha ha, thanks again..
