I have a Frigidaire ffre 1233s1 AC unit that is not putting out cold air. The fan and compressor are working normally. What else should I check?
If both are running you may be low on frreon, inspect for leaks before recharging.
Can Freon by added by me or does ac repair people work on window units?
this will require being done by ac repair. depending on the age of unit you will have to weigh the cost of repair against value of unit. based on the price I would have it repaired.When you call for service just tell that it blowing hot air, and you have idea of what is wrong. Good Luck
Thank you!

Are you certain the compressor is working?
Testimonial: "Yes, I raised the temperature to the room temperature and I heard it shut off. It went back on when I turned the temp back down."
Unplug it for a bit ! If the humidity is high and it's cooling a bit at night you probably have frozen cooling coils. Unplug it for 3 hrs and see if a whole pile of water drops out as the ice begins to melt. Once it's cleared set your cooling temp gauge down a bit at night ( bet it's set to maximum ) so the ice melts between chilling sessions. This is a common problem in cars also. If it stops working turn it off .... When it melts you'll see the water start pouring out. Then give it a bit and try using it again.
Testimonial: "When I look in it, it is extremely clean and has no water in the pan or dripping."

Sorry said I didn't get through but I see it got through multiple times

SOURCE: The fan in the outdoor unit does not work while the AC is on.
these motors are famous for the inyernal fuse blowing in the fan motor. check continuity between the red and blac wires. if there is non the fuse is gone. These motors are fairly easy to take apart and change the fuse . hope this helps
SOURCE: York Mini-Split Not Cooling? : (
This can only be a gas problem.
the split units goes on on and off if a shortage of gas is involved, the chances that you would here it wont be that big for the fans would make too much noise.
get a repair man for a re gas and all is well.
Good luck.

SOURCE: Whirlpool portable AC, compressor works, but no exhaust fan
This is a single speed permanent split capacitor motor for the condenser. One of the capacitor wires shows infinite resistance to hot and netral. The motor needs to be replaced.
SOURCE: Compressor Fan stop working
Do you have a meter? Either the fan is bad or the capacitor is bad. Ohm out the fan and then the capacitor. Be sure you take the disconnect out of the electrical box on the side of the house and or trip the breaker off. The capacitor is a dual run one side operates the compressor and one side operates the fan. I would really bet on the capacitor being bad. Have seen that a lot in my experience. Be sure to make note of the wiring of the capacitor before you take it out to check and if you are not sure how to check it take it to the parts house and they can check it.
