Quick check — and when it's not DIY
One thing you can rule out on your own: listen for a hum with no start, or a repeated clicking sound, and confirm the unit is actually getting power. If that doesn't fix it, a failing compressor is a sealed, high-pressure, refrigerant-charged part, and replacing one requires an experienced technician and recovery equipment no homeowner has on hand.
