We replaced the breaker and still had the problem so called a/c man and he added a hard start and replaced bad circuits but we still have a problem. He said the next step is a condenser, of course I want to check that before I dish out his quoted $1900 since he swore the previous hundreds would solve the problem.
It only trips in the morning around 9 or 10 am. We keep the a/c set at 75, when I turned it down to 73, those 2 days it didn't trip at all but at 74 it tripped again this morning. It's a 9 yr old outside unit, the inside is on a separate breaker. a/c man thought it was from turning off and then turning back on so soon and the pressure not having a chance to go down first. He said the circuits would fix that and the hard start would furthur prevent it. I really don't have $1900 to spend so hoping there's an easier (iow cheaper) fix but will spend it if I have to and my family will just live on ramen
