Use Bing or Google and search for videos that show how to fix it yourself...sometimes you might watch a dozen different videos till you find one that is easy and very helpful...but keep searching, there are videos out there for everything.

on my unit ACEX186E there is a tag on the right side of the unit at the top, the serial # is at the bottom of that tag.

Hi,

You would not find manual for this model online for download. For this, you need to call Amana or write an email to them for the same. One of my clients got the manual via email.Contact information is :-

http://amana.com/custserv/contact.jsp

Write an email and i am pretty positive, they would revert with the manual.Unless, revert to me and i would ask one of my friends working with Amana to upload the manual for you, however could take few days.

Let me know,once you email them and tell me about the update.

Hope i helped you.

Thanks for using ' Fixya ' and have a nice day!!

It should be as simple as posting the brand and model number to the internet or even at the amana website. A PDF manual should be available.

Fill a spray bottle with a 25% bleach to 75% water and spray the front coil which will allow it to circulate with the air, you may want to spray some in the vent before hand with the a/c off. You can take it out and wash it with a water hose if its really bad.

Hello Jester The unit needs 5 minutes between running and restarting.Humming could mean overload let it cool.Turn it off 20min.Turn power saver off on HOT days.

One needs to concider that the 2 way valve might not be switching. This if siezed will give you that senario. Possibly locate the valve and carefull put line power directly on 2 way solonoid and hear if it activates. If it does, then start looking at the board being faulty.

The important consideration is the rotational speed and adding extra horsepower really doesn't achieve anything because the motor isn't really under 'load' as it would be in say a winch. It is better to stick to OEM Specs https://www.google.com/search?q=amana+80+sse+blower+motor ..

Does the power light come on? If yes, then you can do a reset as below: There is a master switch on the bottom left of the control board. Slide that to 'off' position. Then press the hot and cold switch/key together and then slide the master switch back to 'on'. Please put your response/observation here if that does not work or there is power light as asked on top. Thanks

i'm not familiar with your specific unit but ..sounds like an electronic gas value has gone bad or has a bad connection when that happened to my friend it wasn't that expensive to have it fixed .. BYW it acted like this for a while then stopped working completely

Hi, Please hit the "constant fan" button until the "on" button is removed from your Amana screen. Thank you.

bad control board

blower capacitors or motor bad

you will need to call for service. if it needs freon you cannot recharge it freon is expensive and requires a license.
