Could be:

- low on refrigeraant
- loose/burned/corroded compressor electrical connections
- bad compressor run capacitor
- tripped/bad breaker in main service panel
- faulty controller components/relays
- other...

If you don't have significant experince with similar appliances/systems a service call is in order.

It seems you have a defective compressor.

Look for where the condensation drains, it could be stopped up. If it drains into a pan, check it for mold & mildew. Even if it is a wet type to cool the compressor, drainage still needs to happen. Some times it can get moldy if the water sits.

Hi sanctumpeopl,

I see you mentioned that on your PAC 120E that it stopped making cold air, but the compressor does not kick in anymore.

Was the machine transported or relocated and was is transported on its side or upside down? if it was you will need to wait 24 hours before turning the machine ON again this is recommended since the oil needs to at least settle in the compressor for proper function, if the Machine unit was turned on several time the unit may have experienced issues with the compressor and may break down. Leave it turned OFF for 24 hours and see if it will run properly again, if it does that is good but if it works only for a couple of hours or maybe an hour then if it does not cool then the compressor has broken down and may need servicing or replacing.

If that is the issue you can contact Delonghi for Locations where the unit can be repaired 1-866-528-8323 U.S. for other countries go to the Delonghi.com and click contact us at the bottom left or choose your country first to be a able to get the correct contact number.

Thank you for choosing Fixya,

UNIT WILL NOT COOL. FAN AND HUMIDIFIER WORK. THIS IS ONLY THE SECOND SEASON USED AND THE UNIT HAS NEVER BEEN SITTING UP AND NEVER LAID DOWN OR TURNED UP SIDE DOWN. WHAT IS THE PROBLEM?

Hello,
A portable air conditioner may not cool for several reasons. Check the filter by removing the unit's grill and clean the filter.
Also check for clogs in the evaporator or condenser coils by light vacuuming. Make sure the evaporator isn't frosted over, but if it is, allow it to defrost and normal operation should resume.
Lastly, ensure the ambient temperature is lower than your AC's set temperature, as this can prevent cooling. However, if all of these steps fail to resolve your problem, the compressor may be malfunctioning, and in this case, the compressor needs to be replaced or repaired.
In summary, if the air won't cool, remove the grill and clean the filter. Clean out any clogs in the evaporator or condenser coils by vacuuming them and scrubbing them lightly with an old toothbrush. And since fan is working, you compressor might be defective.
I hope the above information is clear.
Regards.

Air conditioner cool for about five minutes then compressor kicks off before it reaches set point.is a window unit

Hi there, this sounds as though the compressor is shutting off on its overload. Its getting hot and overloaded. Here is what you can try, to solve this problem, unless the compressor is going bad. Lets hope not! Go out side, unplug the unit, and take your water hose and wash out the condenser coil. They get dirty and cause the head pressures in the unit to get very hot, which in turn causes the compressor to draw almost maximum amps and shut down. It will cool off after quite some time and start over again. I bet this is your problem. Be careful not to flatten the aluminum fins on the coil as this will prevent air from being released out the back of the coil. Let me know your outcome. If this works, great, please rate me on my help to you.Thank you,

Unit does not cool. Original unit was replaced because of defective compressor. Replacement unit worked in store but now does not cool and alternates blowing cool and warm air.

Is this a window unit? Sounds like the compressor may be cutting on and off. That would cause the alternating air temp you are feeling. Make sure the condenser fan is running. If it isn't running head pressure will build up on the compressor until it shuts down. Then the pressure will equalize and the compressor will kick on again. Also check your filters and the condenser coil to make sure it is clean. Let me know what you find.

Room a/c works great for hours and then compressor just stops

the unit may be knocking off on defrost if the coil is getting v cold,

check for full airflow over the indoor unit/evaporator coil, check filters fan operation and coil condition. Likewise it may be overheating so check the same on the outdoor unit/condenser clean coil and fan operation.

Unlikely but the unit may be under performing and slightly short on refrigerant, not providing enough suction cooling to the compressor motor so the internal over temp klixon would cut it off for short periods, to cool the motor.

I have a fedders (piece of junk)3 1/2 ton 4 year old unit. It runs fine during the evening after it cools off, but during the day it constantly cuts off and on unless I am spraying it with water. As soon...

sounds like your compressor is overheating is the compressor sweating down the sides? If it is you may have an airflow problem clean filters, clean blower fan motor and the evaporator coil. if this does not work you will need to have someone put a set of manifold gauges on it to see if the proper pressures are where they need to be. Also you can check the amps on the compressor to see if it is sezing or if it is locking out. The compressor is getting to hot is the reason when you squirt water on it runs because you are cooling it down. have you cleaned the condensor coil? Your head and suction pressures will give you a good idea.

Air not getting cold

You should have the unit serviced. If the compressor runs and does not cool it may have lost its refrigerant charge.
