Here is a link to the youtube video that illustrates my issue. https://youtu.be/oDeF7k3YIoA

Could be the condenser fan is dying.

Not enough information to give any sort of diagnostic.
Maybe the condenser fan.
Maybe refrigerant charge.
A bunch of other maybes.

Its blowing cool air when it should be warm...keeps kicking the aux heat on in order to raise the temperature in the house

 

[Wutangmember]

Running a ton...almost all day...even in high forts and low fiftys

 

[roughneck]

Are the compressor and outdoor fan motor running consistently?

 

[user_12345a]

by cool air, do you mean room temperature or actually cold.

 

[Wutangmember]

The air coming out is room temp..maybe a little less.

Here's another video. It spooked me a little bit haha

Sounds like the compressor isn’t running.
Check the starting components.

 

[user_12345a]

Could be the run capacitor.

If you have backup heat, switch to emergency heat until this is resolved because the compressor can be ruined repeatedly trying to start and not turning over.

That ridiculous video is absolutely worthless in trying to figure out your problem.
Call a HVAC tech to look at it.

 

[roughneck]

Any luck OP?

I see it as having more value than your reply.

For a judgement call of the fan bearing condition, consider a close vid of the fan while having someone shut the unit off so a coast down time can be observed. On a unit with good bearings it's common for the blade to rock backwards just a bit when it stops.

Since the fan seems to be running continuously, it's obvious that the compressor has kicked of on the overload. When you overload cools down and resets, the compressor cannot start and makes a noise that indicates a serious problem. Leave it turned off and call a tech to check it out. Leaving it on may cause further system damage.

Thanks.
I'll put your opinion in the category of "who gives a sh*t"?

 

[Wutangmember]

Replaced the outside unit. Thanks to all who helped. To the people who only comment to criticize/be an *******....what is the point of you?:vs_laugh::vs_peace:

 

[SeniorSitizen]

But now we want to hear what the new unit sounds like.:biggrin2:

 

[roughneck]

So what was the exact problem with the old condenser?
