Do you have a Wall Thermostat, or is your A/C controlled by knobs right on the unit itself? Wall thermostat usually goes with a Ducted system (several outlets in ceiling) and onboard knobs usually go with a non-ducted system (cold air outlets on the unit itself only).
How comfortable are you with..
...1. Getting/Being on a Roof? and...
...2. Involving minor Electrical Work?
Do you have/can you use...
...1. Clamp-On AC Ammeter?
...2. Digital Volt Ohm Meter (DVOM)?
...3. Perhaps a DVOM that measures Capacitance (MicroFarads/uF/MFD scale)?
What kind of power source were you plugged into when the A/C failed to deliver cold air? What can you plug into now? If you're using long or small gauge extension cords and adapters, you can't expect good performance from a rooftop A/C.
