If you notice that an air conditioner turned off suspiciously quickly - immediately after turning it on, after 5 - 10 minutes, do not rush to panic: perhaps you set such settings and it quickly coped with your task. But there are also many reasons for the rapid shutdown of the air conditioner associated with the breakdown of one of its components or improper operation. In this case, only a qualified professional technician with the necessary diagnostic equipment can find the root cause of a breakdown and fix it. Some of the reasons are: REACHED THE SET TEMPERATURE If you set too high temperature, an air conditioner will easily cope with the task and will turn off. DRYING MODE IS SET In dry mode, an air conditioner usually does not work for a long time. If you have it turned on, do not worry when a device turns off after 10-15 minutes. COMPRESSOR OVERHEATING If a compressor overheats, it will be turned off. But there can be many reasons for overheating: A condenser of an outdoor unit is clogged with debris and dust. Narrow capillary tubes are clogged, usually due to poor installation. A dryer filter may be clogged. A cooling fan of an outdoor unit is defective or heavily clogged. AIR TEMPERATURE SENSOR BROKE DOWN An air conditioner control board makes decisions about turning on/off a compressor, including based on information from an air temperature sensor. INTERIOR UNIT FAN BROKEN An inoperative fan will drastically reduce cooling, and a control module may well shut down an air conditioner after a while. This information also might be useful :)
