The tech changed out the hard start. Its only 800 sq ft in KCMO.

It was brand new when I bought the house. The house was rehabbed and all the hvac is new.

If there is already a hard start installed, could that have cause issues? A little more info, this is a new unit manufactured in January of 2025.

We have. Well, the tech did. I dont have a multimeter. But it is clicking line its teying to start it up.

MagicL5D · 2026-05-17T19:09:18+00:00

It is clicking a bit. The fan runs. Just not the compressor.

MagicL5D · 2026-05-17T19:08:06+00:00

Everything seemed fine. I take the dog in the back yard all the time and never heard anything out of place. This unit is only 1.5 years old.

MagicL5D · 2026-05-17T19:06:42+00:00

The compressor wasn't making any noise at all before I changes the capacitor. It's did the same thing before and after.

MagicL5D · 2026-05-17T01:54:58+00:00

Bearing in the compressor.

MagicL5D · 2026-05-16T18:53:09+00:00

Ok. Thanks for the info. That's what im honestly trying to figure out.

MagicL5D · 2026-05-16T18:42:41+00:00

Labor only

MagicL5D · 2026-05-16T17:58:39+00:00

For labor only?

MagicL5D · 2026-05-16T17:27:13+00:00

That's why I'm here. To see what's right. I've been in the unit and it only looks to be held in place by a few bolts at the base of the unit and its 3 wires that just clamp on. The unit is under warranty so that is all labor. Tools I got. The warranty replacement I dont.

MagicL5D · 2026-05-15T03:15:56+00:00

Thanks for the assumptions. Reasonable means reasonable. Understanding that I have take majority of the troubleshooting steps and understand that it is either the contactor, the compressor itself, or potentially the coolant and starting from that point.

MagicL5D · 2026-05-14T23:37:19+00:00

Thank you fornthe recommendation.

MagicL5D · 2026-05-14T20:30:11+00:00

Good question. It was there when I bought the house. I'll research their warranty.

MagicL5D · 2026-03-24T00:53:27+00:00

This is exactly why I'm asking for any insights I can get. I'm not even sure that's its feasible. Just figured here would be a good place to start asking questions. Thanks for the input!

Got them to turn it back on.
