An AC compressor requires regular maintenance involving proper storage during the winter, which involves wrapping the compressor. You also have to make sure you keep the back side of the AC compressor free of leaves and debris and clean the air filter regularly.
The easiest way to cool an older home that heated with radiators, is to use window AC units. Storing these window AC units during the winter can be a lot of work. What is are some suggestions for properly storing window AC units during the winter?

my ac dont work
Did you happen to move it to Defrost when you turned it off? The ac compressor also runs in the defrost cycle to keep the seals lubricated during the winter months when the ac is not used.
yes it will.
Low or no freon will cause the AC not to work. Also if the clutch on the AC compressor has failed, or if the compressor itself failed.
If the compressor has stopped running altogether the AC will not work.
There can be a couple of reasons due to which the AC compressor of your car might seize to work. First of all check the wires leading to compressor and the fuse switch. Next you have to check if the compressor holds enough gas for AC to work. Also, check for a leakage in steel pipes that circulate the air.
YES. The A/C will cycle on and off when the heater is on defrost. That stops the A/C compressor from locking up during the winter months.
cars that are equipped with ac are supposed to run when the heat selection is on : max a/c , a/c , mix or defrost. the ac pump dries the air that flows through it which helps to clear the windshield and also to help to feel cooler in the summer . i have pulled the plug on the compressor before to turn it off during the winter months but it is just fine to run Also, heat settings keep the compressor running to prevent it from seizing. The number 1 cause of compressor failure was due to lack of use during the long winter months.
It is possible the air compressor is bad. You will need to replace the air compressor, so the air will work again.
