As a result, the air conditioner spewed heated air when it eventually switched on. To identify the issue, our technician went to their home that day. We examined the condensing unit's guts and tested the AC capacitor using a multimeter. Finally, we determined the culprit—the system's circuitry overheated due to extremely high outdoor temperatures, causing the AC capacitor to fail. After testing the AC unit, we replaced the defective capacitor. Within the next two to three minutes, it finally turned on.
