Living in Sunny South Carolina, A/C is crucial. Ours went out 2 years ago in the middle of the summer. You can do it on your own. I got this device called a jump starter to "jump" the compressor. It hooks up to capacitor. It's like a double capacitor. Check out the internet. You can find everything you want there. IMO, most A/C guys rip off the public. I had 2 "pros" tell me I needed an entirely new system. Bogus. One guy was a "best friend" of a buddy who would not steer me wrong. I saved about $3,000 on doing it myself. You can take the 608 test for $25 and buy refrigerant legally, and do everything yourself. Just check out the internet. If you get super stymied, shoot me an email and I will take a picture of mine for reference.

I had a similar problem with my refrigerator. The appliance guy said that I would need a new compressor. I checked the internet and some guy wrote that if the little box on the side of the compressor rattled after it was removed, that it was the problem. I bought the $35 part and put it on myself. The refrigerator runs great.
