When I turn on my AC nothing happens?
Your Air Conditioner Won’t Come On You go to turn on your air conditioner but nothing happens. Why?

Make sure that your thermostat is set to “cool.” You may also need to adjust the temperature that it’s set to.
Why won’t my AC or heat turn on in my house?
Faulty thermostats can cause AC and heater issues. A furnace and/or AC that won’t turn on usually has a power supply issue or a tripped limit switch. Limit or safety switches turn off the system when a malfunction occurs. Some of these safety switches must be manually reset before the system will turn on again.
