That hum sounds like you restarted the AC too fast and the compressor didn't have time to equalize. Was the AC running at any time when you hooked up? It only takes a momentary power loss to cause the compressor to lock up. Once it settles and is restarted, its fine.

We have just one AC unit but this Montana has a built in delay for starting the AC. It will not come on until two minutes after it is turned on. David and Jo-Anna, yours is newer than ours so I'd think it has the same thing. And the second AC would work the same, or is it on a different circuit without the delay?
