Air conditioner not cooling
Hey all, I could use some help with troubleshooting our A/C, it quit working last year. It's an airxcel 48253B866 (13.5k unit) and is only 4 years old. I replaced both the running and fan capacitor...

Where and WHICH wire(color) are you reading the amp draw? If you are reading the COMPLETE (Fan and Compressor) amp draw, that puts the compressor amp draw at 7.5 amps which indicates either a low charge or defective compressor. Either way you will have to replace the upper unit. Doug
The readings excluded the fan draw since I measured the purple and yellow wire in the ceiling assembly that goes to the roof unit. The yellow wire goes to the run capacitor and the purple goes to the compressor according to the wiring diagram. Both wires had the same amp load.
