      What You Should Do When Your AC Is Not Turning On

      Most of the time, your HVAC unit will work smoothly with regular air conditioning maintenance. But if it isn’t well maintained and you’re wondering why your AC won’t turn on, we have some tips that will help you solve the problem. This article will review basic steps to fix an air conditioner that isn’t turning on.

      What You Should Do When Your AC Is Not Turning On

      Check the Thermostat

      The first step in troubleshooting a non-functional air conditioning system is to check the thermostat. Start by checking the batteries if you have a battery-powered model, and then adjust the settings to ensure that it’s in cooling mode. Afterward, you can try setting it at your desired temperature. 

      Check the Circuit Breaker

      If the thermostat is operating correctly and your air conditioner still isn’t turning on, the next step is to locate and reset the circuit breaker. Symptoms such as flickering lights in parts of your home may indicate that a circuit has been tripped. The location of your circuit box will vary depending on your home, but it’s usually found inside or outside near an electrical meter or fuse panel. 

      Check the Condenser Unit

      The next step is to ensure your condensing unit’s power supply, fan motor, and compressor are operating correctly. Turn your thermostat off and head outside to check that all applicable switches are on. Also, verify that any wires or connections in the unit aren’t rusty or corroded. If you’re still not sure what’s wrong with your unit, it would be best to follow the next step and call in a trusted air conditioning repair technician.
