Question for AC Unit repair gurus...

Last week we turned the heater on, it ran well but after a while, we started to smell burnt plastic. Turned the unit off, went about out day & kinda just forgot about it because there was no need to run it. This weekend we turned the AC unit on but nothing happened? Switched to heater, still nothing. Even put the unit on [ON] but it would not come on. The unit outside not the unit inside would turn on. Any ideas of what may or may not be the problem? Unit is old but my repair guy said it was in good shape for it's age.

An important plastic part burned

do you see any burnt wires or boxes or anything near the unit?
Smelling something burning means it came from inside, but you say the outside fan is also not kicking on. Does your thermostat have power? Could be the transformer for it.
Could be an inside fan. Trying to think of what on the inside besides the thermostat and maybe water level switch that would shut everything off.

Thermostat still has power. I didn't see any burnt wires but I will look for that. Thanks
