I watched three or four videos before I came across this one. The other videos had stated that I needed to turn off the a/c, unplug it and wait for 5 minutes before plugging it back in and trying it. I did that three different times and each time I did it, the air would blow cold for about 5 minutes before the E8 error popped back up. I also waited for forty minutes one time as well. Then I came upon your video which not only explained how to reset it but showed how to reset it. Unfortunately, by the time I came across your video, the window unit was sitting outside on my front porch being cleaned out with a water hose by my husband. I told him how to reset it when he brings it back into the house, so when he put it back into the wall, he reset it, and it has been freezing me out of this room since earlier today. I don't know which one did the trick but if the unit needed cleaning, it got cleaned and if it needed to be reset, it got reset. Either way, it's working, and I credit you for helping immensely with your instructions. Thank you for taking the time to make the video for those of us who are completely clueless about things such as this!
Thanks for the video. My AC just completely stopped working, won’t turn on…nothing! I cleaned out the inside and reset it like you said but still nothing! I’m wondering if it’s the fuse in it or something!!?? I can’t find any videos on here about where to even find the fuse! Ugh, I’m so hot right now, I feel like smashing the thing into a million pieces!!!!
THANK YOUUUUUU!! this gives me a leaaad!!! I have power in the chord and the unit WANTS to turn on and stay on but it’s not. so thank you for thissss!!! I had no ideaaaa!!! thank you thank you thank youuuu!!!
Thank you so much for this video. Its 90 fegrees right now and have had no ac. Maintenance emergency lives over an hour away so i wanted to try to save him thr trip. You were rhe first person to mention "the click" pushing the test and reset buttons weren't working until i used a pen to push the reset button in further. Like magic my ac came back on. I am beyond grateful.
Thanks this helped alot. I literally was bout to have a mental breakdown trying to figure bout what’s going on. I’m playing with the breaker and everything lol
That’s a GFI reset on the plug. They all come with built in GFI. Have nothing to do with the actual unit. If that reset worked then that means the GFI tripped, which they do sometimes.
