Why does the compressor on the house ac stay on after the thermostat goes off?

My first guess without seeing it is that the contactor is stuck (welded) shut and needs to be replaced. If you have not already done so turn the outdoor unit off until this is fixed or you will be replacing the compressor too.


What is wrong with your air conditioner if the fan is blowing but the compressor is not working?

It is possible that the circuit breaker for the compressor unit is thrown (switched to "off"). Go outside to the compressor unit and follow the big cable up to the circuit breaker panel on the wall. If it is off, throw the switch to "on." If that is not the problem, something is probably wrong with the compressor unit. Turn off the breaker panel and call a repairman.

You cannot return the compressor unless it is the reason your system is not working. No need to reuse the compressor as you will have a brand new unit anyway.
