3.      AC unit turns off anytime- AC unit turning off anytime is a sign that the capacitor is no longer providing sufficient energy to the unit, as it is no longer holding enough charge to sustain the overall operation. This is an indication that your AC Capacitor needs to be replaced at the earliest.
