Quick check — and when it's not DIY
Start here — it costs nothing and rules out the easy cause: check the breaker hasn't tripped and the unit's overload protector hasn't kicked out, since both can look like a dead compressor. Also, listen for a hum with no start, or a repeated clicking sound, and confirm the unit is actually getting power. If none of that changes anything, 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.
