Now the outside unit doesn't turn on. Fan or compressor. Well, kind of.
I went outside, took a look at the control access panel. There's a plastic switch type thing that if I press in, the unit turns on. Both the fan and the compressor come on. However if I let go then it stops running. Using the thermostat control to turn the unit it doesn't work.
I assume the unit overheated and shut itself off but I can't figure out how to reset it back to normal.
The blower inside downstairs works fine.
Any Ideas before I call my local HVAC technician?
