Be sure the thermostat is switched to Cool , the Fan is switched
to Auto, and adjusted low enough to be turning on. Be sure the filter
is clean.
Air Conditioning is a very complex system with many parts and variables
which can go wrong. It would be impossible for me to explain in any
kind of detail or even touch in many areas of trouble shooting. This
is best left to an experienced Technician. I am only offering easily
accessible suggestions which may save you a service call.
Below are a few items to check if your system is not cooling. In most
cases your Service
Company will need to be called, but lets check the obvious
first.
If the filter is clean and everything is running, you may be
low on refrigerant. A quick way
to check this is feel the larger of the 2 pipes going into
the condenser. It should be cold. If
it is not, chances are you are low and will need service.
Are all of your vents open?
Dirty evaporator coils can act like a dirty filter. This
will be a gradual change over time. Indications are 'not cooling
as well as it did last year', freezing up and higher electric bills.

unit is still not cooling, call your Service Company.
