Hoping that someone has had the same problem and got it figured out.
I am about to leave newell after they had tried to fix the problem for a day and a half.
My front ac unit was only putting out 61 degree air but would run.
Newell determined that I needed a new compressor so went ahead with that which also included a new drier and capacitor.
So after the new install of compressor the unit started and got cold but within a few minutes the fan would quit then the compressor would overheat and shut down. So went inside to the electrical box by the condenser and found a capacitor that looked like it blew up, the top had pushed up and oil had leaked out, so that was replaced and same problem exist.
Then the fellow checked out the thermostat and that checked out ok. He was not very familiar with all the stuff inside the box so after a day and a half and now Newell has closed for the 4th we decided to call it quits. We don't want to hang around for 5 days
and need to get back to our trip. figuring we were going to get a large bill for basically nothing we were told there was no charge.
We were happy with that but we now have no ac on the front of the unit.
Remember the AC unit was working ok but blowing only blowing 60 degree and now the problem is the fan on the compressor unit comes on for a few minutes then shuts off which allows the compressor to over heat and shut down.
Any help would be appreciated. Happy fourth.
