Air conditioner turns on then shuts itself off immediately

Our air conditioner was running fine all day then our check filter light came on. We shut it off and cleaned the filter. When we put the filter back in and turned the A/C unit back on it will not stay running. The power light is on but it does nothing. It shuts itself off after we turn it on. I can't understand it. It was running fine prior to changing the filter. All we did was pull the filter out and put it back in. HELP Please!!!

There's something wrong with your aircon. Usually the lights will start to blink. Depending on the brand and model, the number of times it blinks will give you an error code which tells you what's spoilt. You may like to check this out http://www.astiquer.com/blinking.html

Enigma SLR61-GW. System runs for about 30 mins and then shuts down and a status light blinks 4 times.

Open the front end of the blower.
You will find tow filters that slide out.
Clean them with water and replays them.

Go to the outside one, take a hosepipe and run a strong stream of water thru the radiator until its clean.

This will solve your problem.

Good luck.

Outside a/c fan quits but compresser still runs

it sounds like the fan is over amping itself and shutting down on thermal overload check the amp draw during running time and compare it to the sticker on the outside panel it should be running .9 amps, and it will over heat if it runs around 1.2 amps or above

Unit freezing up and shutting off

Ordinarily air conditioners do this when they are too big,(BTU wise), for the area being cooled. They will shut off to prevent system damage. There has to be enough warm air drawing back to the unit to keep the coils from freezing up. A more rare scenario would be an overcharge from the factory and manifest itself immediately.

Thank you,

Not turning on again

try cleaning The air filter in your set. It may be a thermal problem due to a clogged air filter.
