System cools with 18 degree splits. Runs for 10 hours and shuts down. Had some frayed signal wires outside and repaired. Same thing. In my opinion it runs that long to get area cooled down to thermostat setting then turns off. However it does not come back on when temp rises above temp setting. What is wrong? The 10 hours seems to be how long it takes to get interior down from 90 to 74.

Based on what you’re saying here it sounds like the thermostat is not sending a request for cooling?

Check yellow to red thermostat wires for voltage with a multimeter when it’s supposed to be asking for cooling

Have you checked your pan for any water? You could have a clog in the drain line or your evaporator coil needs to be clean and it causing the pan to fill with water. They have an automatic shut off switch on your pan when it fills.

Why is your interior temp reaching 90 in the first place?
