First off... here's the info on the unit:
- BDP Company
- make: Payne
- model #: 569BJ036
- product #: 569BJX036036000AAAA
- with an electric furnace
- outdoor
- 208-230 volt
- 5lb 13oz refrigerant
The outside Payne air conditioning unit stopped working in the middle of the night 2 days ago. I've checked the circuit breaker, and the on/off switch outside next to the unit - both were on, I also turned each off and then on again, which didn't work. The electric furnace fan turns on when I set the LUX wall thermostat to "cool" and the fan to "auto" which blows air around in the house - but the outside air conditioning unit doesn't turn on.
Do you have any suggestions? I called a local servicing company and they said it would cost $95.00 just to come out and take a look at the unit. That sounds reasonable, but perhaps there's something I can do first before scheduling that appointment.
Thanks in advance!
Ben
