Is there a heat source 

(such as a lamp or 

television) in the room, 

near the air conditioner? 

Move the unit away from the heat source or remove the heat source. 

The thermostat senses heat and signals the air conditioner to continue 

operating even though the temperature in the room is below 

thermostat settings.

MOTOR RUNS/NO AIR

IS BLOWING

Is no air blowing in 

either cooling or fan 

mode?

Remove power to the unit and then remove the grill and the sleeve 

behind it so you can check whether an object is blocking the fan.

Call for service if there is no obstruction or if you prefer not to 

check the fan yourself.
