AC REPAIR – HOW TO PROCEED
WHEN YOUR AC REFUSED TO WORK
• IF YOU NOTICE THAT THE CIRCUIT BREAKER IS TRIPPED, YOU MAY HAVE TO RESET IT OR EVEN
HAVE TO REPLACE THE FUSE. A VERY IMPORTANT THING TO BEAR IN MIND IS THAT SOMETIMES
THE FUSE WILL BLOW AGAIN WHEN YOU REPLACE IT AND TRY TO TURN YOUR AIR CONDITIONING
SYSTEM ON. IF THAT IS THE CASE, DO NOT TRY ANYTHING DIFFERENT AND CALL A TECHNICAL FOR
AC REPAIR. A FUSE THAT BLOWS AGAIN USUALLY INDICATES A MORE SERIOUS ELECTRICAL
PROBLEM AND YOU SHOULD LET AN EXPERT TAKE CARE OF IT.
• BE SURE TO CHECK ALL THE SWITCHES AROUND YOUR AIR CONDITIONER. ENSURE THAT THOSE
SWITCHES ARE TURNED ON – THIS ALSO APPLIES TO THE EXTERNAL SAFETY SWITCH, WHICH YOU
MAY FIND NEXT TO THE CONDENSING UNIT.
• HAVE A LOOK AT THE CONDENSATE TRAY BECAUSE IT SOMETIMES COMES WITH A SENSOR
SWITCH THAT CAN TURN THE AC OFF WHEN THERE IS WATER ON THE TRAY. REMOVE THE WATER
AND TURN THAT SWITCH ON AGAIN.
