Problem with air conditioner

[Rough2000]

I have a 2009 Jayco Designer with a Coleman 15,000 btu air conditioner. Yesterday pm, noticed it was not cooling. After leaving it off for quite some time, I turned it on, the blower fan runs, but I do not hear the compressed start up after a short period of time. Do you think it is a bad capacitor, bad compressor, low freon, or the whole unit just bit the dust. I would like your opinions before I have a tech out. Thanks guys

While it is true that no one can know without.... You do know for sure that You dont hear the compressor running. So start with the things that can cause the compressor not to run. Thermostat, start cap or other voltage problems.

I make my living fixing Ac's,could be any or all of the above.No way to actually know without having meter or gauges on the unit.

The fins could be real dirty, I clean mine ever so often, you can get coil cleaner from Lowes or Home depot its the same stuff AC repair guys use to clean your home AC unit fins. Just spray on and then hose it off real good. that's one guess.

Could be any number of things from frosted coils, to start cap to bad compressor. No way of knowing unless you pull the cover and look
