Last night our a/c stopping blowing cold air. I went outside and noticed that the outdoor unit fan was not spinning (there was however a buzzing noise). After some research, I did the "stick test" and got the fan moving. It seemed from all the posts that I read that this was a temporary fix that would make the air blow cold for a short time. However, even with the fan spinning, it was still 83 degrees all night and not blowing cold air. When I woke up this morning, the inside fan was blowing, but the outside had stopped. I figured I needed a new capacitor, but if I understand correctly, that just gets the fan started....well I got it started with a stick and it was still not cold inside. Advice please.
P.S. Before I get the fan going with stick, the top of the unit is almost too hot to leave your hand on it. Thanks in advance for any and all responders/help.
