Condenser Fan

The fan on the condenser (outside unit) has difficulty starting. I can hear a popping noise and see the fan on the condenser make a quarter turn, but not engage. This scenario may occur once or several times before the fan finally engages. What could the problem be?

Your fan maybe going out.. You may want to check your wires ... Make sure you TURN OFF YOUR POWER! get into the control area of your A/C and check the wires.. Watch out for the Capacitors! They hold a charge, and you need to use a screwdriver to "short" them out. Check the wires on that.. If they all seem good, then chances are your fan is dying.
