Ac unit buzzes and fan motor does not run when system turned on.
Your blower motor sounds like it is fried. I hope you have done something by now, 15 Oct 2014. But the best thing to do if someone is reading this and you get this symptom is to turn off the blower. If it is still under warranty, the new blower motor should not cost you anything except the labor and service charge. Different manufactures sometimes charge a small warranty charge to handle paperwork and shipping. If this recently happens to you, the most common cause is a voltage spike, like lightning strike, and it has blown the capacitor. If you do not have a capacitor on your blower motor, for example an x13 or an ECM type motor, then you will need to replace the control module and typically costs about $200. If your local dealer does stock the control module then the cost of most of these motors are around $500. Your best bet is to call a reputable repairman and get them to change it out. There is high voltage capacitors inside and can give you a good jolt if you happen to come in contact with the circuitry before the capacitor discharges.
Hope this helps.
