[Shop-talk] Frigidaire window AC fan short cycling

[Pat Horne]

Could be almost anything. Time for some troubleshooting. I’m quite willing to help. 

BTW, did the message I sent out on this several days ago make it? I don’t recall seeing it. 

Peace,
Pat

I'd like the fan to run continuously so it a) works to cool the whole house and b) doesn't annoy the ^&#%$&%^ out of me. It does have an Eco mode but I'm not on that, I'm on regular cool.
