most common is lack of frion or other refrigerent .next the motor is siezed(try hitting with blunt object),this seems to work more than it should.

We are afraid to use the unit 24 hours because it might cause to overheat .What is really the cause of overheating?
Common issues that can affect the performance of an AC compressor motor include electrical problems, such as faulty wiring or connections, mechanical issues like worn-out bearings or lack of lubrication, and refrigerant leaks that can cause the motor to overheat. Regular maintenance and inspections can help prevent these issues and ensure the efficient operation of the AC compressor motor.
Because it might overheat or need a break.
Yes, hail can damage AC fins by bending or puncturing them, which can disrupt airflow and reduce the efficiency of the unit. This restricted airflow can cause the compressor to overheat, potentially leading to its failure or burnout. Regular maintenance and inspections can help identify such damage early and prevent significant issues.
A malfunctioning AC compressor could be caused by issues such as low refrigerant levels, electrical problems, or a worn-out compressor. To check if the AC compressor fuse is the cause of the issue, you can visually inspect the fuse for any signs of damage or use a multimeter to test for continuity.
Yes, low coolant will cause it to overheat without the AC; that is not the only reason that will cause overheating however.

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.
