    Good luck, Bad contractor plus Goodman equipment recipe for disaster. Are both the indoor and outdoor running? Is the air coming from the outdoor unit warm, is the big copper line sweeting?

    Can you hear if the compressor is running outside? Or just the fan?

    I've read online that it could be a freon leak, compressor, capacitor charge.. im afraid I'm going to end up calling a local licensed contractor and paying out the yingyang to have it looked at and repaired on a Sunday.
