Hello everyone, Let me give a little back story. I purchased a home (2 months ago) for my grandfather who couldnt afford a home. The home was a great deal and was sold as is. looking at the condition of the unit. The AC unit looks brand new (goodman gsx130301 - 13 seer AC, 2.5 Ton) All wires are hooked up except for the thermostat wires. I connect the white wire from the thermo to blue common on the AC/ Red wire from the thermo to the yellow on the AC When i flip the breaker on. It trips instantly. One time the break sparked. Did i connect the thermo wires wrong? Maybe they never put freon on this new unit? My troubleshooting: Thermo was set to OFF - same issue wires are tighten on the breaker and the AC unit. I would love some help as I do not have money to pay anyone. Using my money now to help my grandpa

Hello all, I went to cut my a/c on for the first time this year and the outdoor unit won't cut on at all. It is new, was replaced last summer and worked the remainder of the summer, but this year... nothing. The air handler kicks on and starts circulating air, but the outdoor unit does nothing--no noises, movement, etc. In the picture below, the large black part with 4 big terminals does have 220V to the bottom of it (black/red wires), but no voltage on the top terminals. The capacitor doesn't appear to have bulged ends. What should I check to further troubleshoot? Thanks. [ATTACH]65317[/ATTACH]
