I have a window unit that heats and cools. I notice a burning smell the last couple of nights. I thought it was coming from the outside. I notice the unit was running (fan) but not heating tonight. I then tried to turn on the ac it would blow but the compressor would not turn on. any suggestions?

Sounds like maybe some control wireing shorted out. Have you opened up the unit? Is there any obivous damage? How much was the unit new?

I took the front panel off. Did not notice any wiring issues. I will take a indepth look. I was thinking it may be the thermostat conteol
