    A/C fan won't come on without a push
    Air conditioner out side is just a couple years old. I started to get warm in the house went outside there was a buzzing sound. The fan wasn't running so I took a stick put it in there and gave the fan a push it started. Now [COLOR=#417394]every time[/COLOR] it gets cool enough it goes off like normal but the fan still won't start on its own. I haven't looked at anything yet. I was hoping it would be obvious. Does any know? When it comes on it cools great.

Air conditioner fan won't turn unless I push it with a stick. [ 1 Answers ]

Once I push the fan, it will stay running until the unit kicks off then goes to kick on again. Then it won't turn and I have to shut it off, then back on and then use the stick again. I saw some posts about a similar issue, but don't know what to look at on the unit as far as checking things out.
