Thermostat Went Blank Switching to Heat in Aberdeen
What the customer reported
An Aberdeen homeowner turned the unit to heat and the thermostat went blank. The system serves the whole home.
What we found and did
Chris found electrical shorts in the wiring, which can lead to inconsistent performance and potentially more serious electrical damage over time. He put the system in heat and let it run for a little bit, then switched it to cool and cut it off and back on. He recommended a comprehensive diagnostic test on both the indoor and outdoor units to pinpoint the location and cause of the short, along with replacing the contactor. That recommended work was not described as completed during this visit.
Result
Everything was working correctly at the end of the visit after the heat and cool test.

FAQ
AC Repair in Aberdeen: questions answered
Answered by our licensed technicians serving Aberdeen.
How quickly can you get to my home for an AC repair?
For standard AC repairs in the Apex, Cary, Raleigh, and surrounding areas, we typically offer same-day or next-day service. During peak summer months (June-August), demand is highest, so we recommend calling early in the day. Emergency repairs are prioritized and dispatched as quickly as possible.
How much does an AC repair cost?
Repair costs depend on the specific problem and parts needed. A capacitor replacement might run $150-$300, while a compressor replacement can range from $1,500-$2,500+. We charge a diagnostic fee to identify the problem, then provide a flat-rate repair quote before proceeding.
Is it worth repairing my older AC system?
As a general guideline, if a repair costs more than 50% of a new system and your equipment is over 10 years old, replacement often makes more financial sense. We'll give you an honest assessment factoring in your system's age, repair history, efficiency, and the cost of the specific repair needed.
Why did my AC stop working on the hottest day?
This is extremely common. Peak heat days push your system to maximum capacity for extended periods. Components like capacitors, compressors, and fan motors that are already weakened by wear are most likely to fail under this extreme stress, similar to how a worn tire is most likely to blow out on a long highway drive.
