Midea portable AC cycling on and off
We bought this unit in 2023, and it's worked great for 3-4 months each season. I did all the usual stuff before storing it last year-- ran the fan, drained the unit, covered it, etc.
I plugged it in and turned it on today, and it's short cycling every few minutes. The unit is on COOL and not auto. The compressor does come on, but then cycles off. The last time it did this, it was bc it was running for days during a very long heatwave/humid spell. It needed to be off for like 12 hours, and it was fine (compressor probably froze). That's not the case this time, bc we just started using it.
Any ideas? I'll try Midea tomorrow for help.
