Wiring for Goldstar R5050 window A/C
Yes I accidentally drop my Gold Star Model #R5050 out the window while installing it. I opened it up and the two(2) white wire are off and I don't know were they go. I try to connect the to the empty terminals and I got a spark out of the outlet. Can you please help me....
Where is the filter
It's behind the front grill underneath the vent. Some window A/C you can slide the filter out from the side or the bottom. Some you have to pull the whole front cover out. Some is part of the front grill and is not removable, and can be cleaned out instead of replacing.

God luck.

All I did was pull on the top left and right corners of the door. It's hinged at the bottom, so it doesn't really come off, but the top will swing out so you can get to the filter. The door does not open at the top of the unit. There are indentations on each side at the top of the door. Press your fingertips on each side at that point and pull towards you. The door should open easily.

If the humidity is not high youwill not gget much water out the back. The air conditioner has slinger ring on the condenser fan than throw the water onto the coil and it is evaperated. Rus
How do i get the freeon in the ac
Air Conditioners don't 'Use' freon per se. A common fallacy is the thinking that if "It's not getting cold, then it needs freon." If your unit lost freon, it has a leak and adding freon will only be a very short term fix.
If you're certain that you need freon, you'll have to take the unit to a certified HVAC technician. EPA regulations make it nearly impossible for the average handyman to service A/C units, since the freon must be handled in a very specific way with equipment not generally available to the average owner, was well as R-12 freon gas which can be bought only by licensed HVAC technicians.
However, there are many other problems that are far more likely to be the cause of no cooling than loss of freon. It could be something as simple as dirty condenser coils (you'd be surprised how common it is that a simple cleaning of these coils will 'fix' a non-working window A/C), to a defective thermostat switch, to other defective switches/controls.
Unless it's a very obvious leak, I always suspect a loss of freon LAST on my list of possible cause of non-cooling in these units.
