I have an older Rheem Classic X. It has stopped running. The air handler inside works fine, but outside the fan doesnt turn on and we hear a click, but the compressor doesnt come on either. The wires to the compressor look burnt. How do I go about figuring out if the problem is something I can handle?
Thanks!!!

It may be the start relay is faulty or the wire that looks burnt is off the relay.

Start by doing a closer inspection of the wire and if it is bad replace it with a wire of the same gage.

You may also want to purchase a new relay.

You will need your model number to do this.
