lol, I am actually learning a lot! I traced the wires from the outside unit, made note of the different letters on the panel/thermostat (C,O, B, E, W2, R, G, Y1/Y2)
Replaced the contact switch on the outside unit with my Brother-in-law. Hooked up the 220 into the air handler and then combined the wires from air handler, outside unit and thermostat myself.
But like Sam mentioned, I can't test the lines myself. I had an A/C company come out and test it for me, and they were the ones that said the outside unit had a leak somewhere. I'm pretty much done, most of that $3000 quote was for labor. We spent around 8 hours in the attic/outside, I know labor is not cheap, so that is where most of my money was saved.
Basically now it is:
-Sweat lines on
-Check system for leaks
-Charge system
Leare
