Identifying whether your air conditioner compressor or motor is overheating involves observing several clear warning signs. Major indicators include the outdoor unit shutting down abruptly mid-cycle, a hot burning smell or chemical odor coming from the electrical disconnect box or air handler, the thermal overload breaker tripping repeatedly at your main electrical panel, and lukewarm air blowing from indoor supply registers despite the system running continuously. Verification: Feel the exterior casing of the outdoor condensing unit carefully and check for tripped circuit breakers.
