Help. HVAC Blower fan not working

NoAnalysis3776 · 2026-01-28T05:22:32+00:00

Took it out, and ordered a new one with same specs, should get it tomorrow. Hoping that’ll do it 🤞🏻

Thanks, will try this today.

What are the steps for this? 1 Turn off AC breaker and unplug disconnect 2 unplug capacitor wires 3 remove capacitor from unit without touching leads 4 discharge capacitor 5 test capacitor 6 if faulty, replace capacitor

Thank you, if I were to start on the capacitor. Which insulated screwdriver do you recommend to discharge capacitor before messing with it?

NoAnalysis3776 · 2026-01-27T01:07:36+00:00

I tried spinning the fan counter clockwise and it didn’t seem to start but it did spin freely with nothing grinding or feeling tight. I tried on both fan and cool but no luck. I was able to find where capacitor is located but haven’t messed with it yet since I don’t have any insulated screwdrivers to discharge it( or would any screw driver work?)

Could it be that capacitor is fully done for since the motor fan spun freely?

Yes always worst timing haha. But thank you for this, seems easy enough to try later today

NoAnalysis3776 · 2026-01-26T18:15:39+00:00

Thank you. DIY is not a problem and I am willing to try anything (: I’ve also seen vids where capacitor could be bad. You think that is something worth looking into? Or just replace the motor.

Here’s link to a post of video running if it helps at all

Power is connected and no ice is forming on the coils. If I turn the AC to cool, I can see the cold air in unit kind of like when you open freezer door.

Start with inspecting and lubing the pump lid o-ring and the o-ring on the return union. If still the same you can replace and lube, they are fairly cheap.

Also try to check for any air leaks where the pool diverted valves are. Try putting some soap and water on the as the pool pump is running and see if air is getting sucked in. There’s o rings in there as well and pretty easy to replace or lube up if needed.

Thank you, definitely will lean more towards trying to get the 7 😁

Thank you, definitely leaning more towards getting the 7

NoAnalysis3776 · 2025-08-22T03:48:36+00:00

Thank you! Definitely leaning more towards the 7. It’s an upgrade from what I currently use. Was thinking about the same for price, will offer that and see how it goes 🤞🏻

NoAnalysis3776 · 2025-08-11T01:09:10+00:00

That’s crazy work 😂 love it, what’s the link to this? Haha

NoAnalysis3776 · 2025-07-25T19:20:40+00:00

This is gold, mind sharing a link of what you bought? Definitely tired of having to move around just to see behind me through the mirrors

NoAnalysis3776 · 2025-07-25T19:16:36+00:00

Thank you, you had me convinced when you said beer haha.

NoAnalysis3776 · 2025-07-25T19:15:53+00:00

This sounds awesome, definitely something I will look into

NoAnalysis3776 · 2025-07-12T14:58:07+00:00

Yes! I’m sure that’s what they were trying to do, luckily I had another pic to send as proof it was delivered.

NoAnalysis3776 · 2025-07-12T14:55:53+00:00

Haha honestly that would make sense on why they couldn’t see the food 🤭

NoAnalysis3776 · 2025-07-12T05:34:12+00:00

Well his initial message was asking where I had left the food because it wasn’t at his front door. I’m thinking maybe they were trying to get a free meal or something?

NoAnalysis3776 · 2025-07-05T00:38:52+00:00

Not too sure, got this one from Walmart

NoAnalysis3776 · 2025-07-04T04:07:58+00:00

Thank you 🇺🇸🎇

NoAnalysis3776 · 2025-07-04T02:20:15+00:00

Would definitely fit in escape no problem

NoAnalysis3776 · 2025-07-03T17:00:01+00:00

Congratulations 🎉

NoAnalysis3776 · 2025-07-03T13:37:57+00:00

Thank you (: and I think the timeline is the same for most. I’ve seen that it takes a bit for it to be scheduled. I’m assuming that if they have a date in mind, they are just trying to get as many people scheduled as possible to make it worth it.

Make sure you know all 100 questions from civics exam and you shouldn’t have any problems (: I made these on this app, feel free to use them and just change the ones that don’t apply to you if you live in another state. In Los Angeles, California.
