Has anyone experienced this? The ac is almost a decade old but the servicing was done few months ago.

Is indoor fan running ?

Had similar problems with lloyds non inverter ac, outdoor unit would start and shutdown within 2-3 seconds but indoor fan is running. Needed to replace capacitor of outdoor unit.

Price is around 400-500 for capacitor but lloyds/havells technician looted 1500, saying need to get original replacement from office which cost 1000 + 500 service charge

it would have helped to have the upfront clarity of the type (window AC versus split).

@kartikxxx since it is a window AC, if you too have any thoughts on this.
(Unless I am mistaken, you similarly used a window AC for ages. That O'general too has been through a lot, so maybe some heads-up.)
