Air conditioner getting power but not

This air conditioner is getting power, the green indicator light on the plug is lit and, if you let the machine sit without power either by manually unplugging it or using the plugs built in circuit breaker then reconnect power, the evaporator blower will start seemingly at full blast then it dies down before cutting off completely, after it’s done this, if you disconnect power and reconnect it immediately the same thing will not occur I suspect that has something to do with the capacitors needing time to discharge but other than that there is no other indication that the machine is receiving power the control panel is completely unresponsive and no lights will illuminate on the machine so my question is, what’s wrong?

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Most likely, the control board or main capacitor has failed. The blower briefly starting suggests it’s getting power, but the board isn’t booting to control the system. Check for a blown fuse on the control board and test or replace the capacitor and board as needed.
