My a/c unit is kinda humming but the fan blades aren’t spinning. Anyone ever experience this before? I’m leaning towards it being the fan motor. I gotta call to get someone out but i’d like to research this as much as possible first.

Danke.
is this a window unit? if so its probably cheaper to get a new one than pay someone to repair the old one
The humming is the compressor pump. If the fan isn’t spinning, see if it starts spinning if you flick the blades. If it does, just keep the fan set to ON at the thermostat until you can get it fixed, otherwise you’ll need to call the HVAC monkeys in the morning.
