I need a sanity check - my AC went out a two weeks ago - the tech found a loose/burnt wire (on the start wind terminal - whatever that means) - he re-attached it - he mentioned that the compressor seemed to be working normally, but it was 10 years old and out of warranty - AC wend down again last night - he came out today, the same wire was burned out - he re-attached the wire, mentioned that he may not have repaired it correctly last time, but then again it could be a compressor problem - the compressor is a RUUD UAKA037JAZ - no charge for this trip - but he wrote on the bill that a compressor would run $1,487.07 if it eventually needed to be replaced - does this pricing sound close to reasonable? These guys have always seemed honest and reliable previously, but $1400 is $1400 - I gotta check. Thanks, experts!
