Hi,

I have a strange problem with the home air conditioner. Everyday afternoon,
it turns on but does not have the blower fan on. The compressor and the
outside unit fans turn on. The vents have no cool air coming out of them
and so the house gets warm.

I have to come home and turn the thermostat from 'cool' to 'off', leave it
for about 5-10 mins and turn it back to 'cool'. Then the AC kicks in and
the blower fan turns on. Cool air comes out of the vents and the rooms
start cooling down slowly.

I checked the thermostat and the fan is set to 'Auto' and not 'On'. Even
when I turn the switch to 'Fan On' position the blower fan does not seem to
start unless I do as above.

The unit is a 8 year old Carrier.

Any ideas on what could be the problem?

TIA
