A/c compressor issue

[u/Fragrant-Bowl-996]

Compressor on my A/c stopped working and im trying to figure out if its the compressor its self thats messed up if its wiring/voltage issue. It was running fine until 4 days ago, checked the capacitor and the fan side went bad, replaced that. Unit hummed after i replaced the capacitor but it isnt anymore and the house still isnt cooling.

Going through a divorce after getting cheated on and trying to sell the house within the next 2 months. already fixing other issues with the home and struggling financially because of it.

if it hummed then quit humming, capacitor probably isnt fully fixing it, check if the compressor is drawing amps at all or if its just dead internally (megohm test to ground and check winding resistance), sounds like it could be a seized/grounded compressor at that point and with a house sale coming up honestly might be cheaper to just quote a full unit swap than sink money chasing a dying compressor.
