I have a small window AC unit in a bedroom at the cabin that stopped working. It's only about 3 years old. I can get it turned on but the breaker in the plug keeps tripping. If I reset it, it will run for a minute or 2 and then trip again. This unit worked great that past 2 years. I've cleaned the filter and coils. Earlier this spring, we had a breaker in the breaker panel go bad. I'm pretty sure that the AC was plugged into that circuit. Not sure if that has anything to do with the AC not working but I don't believe we used that AC since the breaker went bad until a few weeks ago when it stopped working.
Any ideas on what is tripping this? I only paid $100 for this so probably not worth taking in to get repaired.

Nice to finally meet you tonight. Make sure you tell me who you are again next time you come in. I will probably forget.
Let me know when you are dropping in again and I'll make sure we have more of those beverages around!
This northern boy needs a little help with this one.
Dried up kill hole in the duck timber?
Quicksand that all the deer fell into?
Cool lighting in a forest that’s so different from ours?
I’ve never been in the AR woods before but you’ve arrived by the looks of it.
Good luck.
