    Oiling the outside a c unit fan
    I need help with my outside fan. When I turn my A/C unit on from the inside and walk out to the outside unit, all you can hear is the motor humming. 2 weeks ago I used a screw driver and gave it a spin and it started working. Also, yesterday the fan was making loud whining noises and it won't spin now even with the screwdriver. What could possibly be wrong??
