I don't think that is actually true...
OK let's make a test. I have 2 accounts on sh.itjust.works, this is my lemmy.fmhy.ml account. I'll attach a pic, see where the link points to.
The link says lemmy.fmhy.ml 🤷.

I would actually prefer someone dragging me from the sofa to do... whatever. I can be lazy AF. Not all the time, but man, some days...
Yeah, the external unit is the problem. In most cases, the switch/relay for the fan and the compressor are the one and the same, so if the fan doesn't work, the compressor probably doesn't work as well. If the compressor works, but the fan doesn't, you'll probably hear just a buzzing sound from the external unit. Still, it will cool, just a lot less. The fan is needed to draw the hot air from the raidiators, cool the colling liquid down and pass the cold liquid back to the internal unit, so it can use it to cool the air inside.
An AC is basically like a big energy exchange system. Draw energy (heat) from one end, release it at the other, but in order to do that, you need both fans and radiators to be present at both ends, cuz the heat exchanger in this case is air.
Daaamn, did you fucking shove a deodorant in your pants or something 😲.
One of the many reasons why I prefer dogs, they know who's boss.
See this is what I don't get about vegans or vegeterians. They buy these products that all resemble meat products in one way or another, but then complain if you eat meat 🤔. Apparently, they like to eat meat as well, they just wanna be posh about it while eating fake meat.
But... we do eat plants...
Jesus, people actually get off on that 🤦...
Oh... yeah, you're right, forgot about that...
Yeah, I know what you mean... heck, I would've bought a new one, but, as you said, money is tight, couldn't afford one right now 🤷. Technically, I don't do things like this, fix ACs, but I am an engineer, so I thought, the heck with it, why not try at least 🤷. I can't make it worse... probably 😂.
Anyhow, I bet it's something with the comoressor in your case... maybe something on the control board, maybe the motor in the compressor in the external unit... can't say for sure, but if only hot air circulates, there is no other explanation. The compressor is responsible for cooling the air. Just keep this in mind if someone tries to swindle you when you finally decide to get a repairman for the AC 😉.
That is what common sense says (I thought it worked like that in the beginning), but that is not how it actually works, see my post below.
