Possible breakdowns and possible solutions:
1. Contamination of system parts. There is a necessity to check filters in the internal and a radiator in the external unit. They should be cleaned if necessary.
2. Low voltage in the network (not enough power). In most cases, not solved locally. You can try to increase the temperature indicator (set the average value) or install a voltage regulator.
3. Freon leak. This is one of the most common reasons why the air conditioner does not cool, but works like a fan. It is necessary to add refrigerant to the appropriate level and check the integrity of all internal elements.
4. Blockage of the capillary pipeline. Occurs due to lack of preventive maintenance. Solved by cleaning.
5. Compressor malfunction. The unit is repaired or completely replaced.
6. Breakage of the temperature sensor or thermistor. These modules are also repaired or replaced.
7. The outdoor unit of the air conditioner and the fan do not work. The voltage in the capacitor and contactor should be checked and, if necessary, reset. Also make sure the unit is getting power.
8. Failure of the control board in the indoor unit. This category also includes the starting relay. Elements are repaired, if possible, or replaced.
