Second Opinion on a Failing Compressor Warning in Van Buren, AR (Wiring Repair and New Contactor)

A Van Buren homeowner came to us after being told the AC compressor might be failing. She wanted a second opinion before spending money on a major repair.

What Our Technician Found

Our technician did his own full diagnostic instead of taking the earlier reading at face value. He tested the outdoor unit with meters and gauges and found damaged wiring and a worn contactor (the switch that sends power to the outdoor unit). He explained the repairs and got her approval before starting.
