    My dog chewed my central air wires!
    I turned on my Carrier central air today and it didn't work. I checked outside to find my dog chewed some of the wires! The wires coming out of the house are thin white and red wires (2)thatare banded together and the wires coming out of the condenser are blue and brown. How do I reconnect these without hurting my a/c? Please help. Its real hot here! MY carrier model # is 38xd1. Thanks in advance.:(
