    Outside ac fan will not turn on
    The outside fan for ac will not turn, we have replaced fan, fan capacitor and contactor. Fan inside will turn on but the unit outside does not do a thing! Any suggestions?

    Check the fuses or circuit breakers for 220 volts across both legs of the a/c outside circuit feed at the entrance to the contactor.
