Hi,

I have an air conditioner that has an inside unit and an outside unit.
When I turn on the air conditioning the attic fans blow but it only
blows warmish air. I know that this is most likely because of a blown
fuse or a breaker.

Where would I find the fuses and how can I replace them?

Thanks!

There should be a circuit breaker in the AC panel for the outside
compressor unit.
If it's not marked, it should be easy to spot, typically 40 amp, 240V
double breaker.
There may also be another fuse located in a weatherproof box outside
near the unit.

If the outside fan isn't running, the compressor may be running
and getting ready to burn out. I'd suggest to call a HVAC repair
company.

What you know (blown fuse or breaker) might be correct. But I can
think of several other things that could be wrong.

I'd be highly suspicious of the starting capacitor.

When its on, I don't hear any noise compressor or otherwise.
