I would think the condensor motor bearings are worn. Try testing for end play and side to side play of the condensor motor shaft, with the power disconnected.

SOURCE: I am a ac tech

you aren't an ac tech number one but i shall overlook that . your question is llike will the sun come up in the north or the south tomorrow. obviously in the east as it has since the earth was created. anyway. all compressors since the beginning of time wire up the same .a wire commonly referred to as the common goes from the contactor to the compressor. usually black in color, hence the old coloqualism Blacks are common. the run wire is from the contactor to the run side of the run capacitor or from the contactor to the run connection on the compressor. hence the old slogan reds run when you point a gun at them. the only wire left is the start wire that come from the start capacitor and is usually yellow . hence the old saying blacks are common, reds run, and yellows are always starting something. very ethnic i know but thats how i was taught.now that the wirings correct check to see volts through contactor are correct and if one side of contactor is not feeding. if volts good then check capacitors with a cap checker. if all else looks good kill power and inspect compressor terminals at compressor. if burned off consider a termilock kit good luck..

Carrier AC 38CKC019 may have overheated. The fan unit buzzes but does not turn.

Hey there, ok, now if the fan is spinning and the compressor is buzzing, the compressor is locked up and needs to be replaced. If neither is running and the buzzing is coming from the control panel on the unit, it could be the contactor. Also there is a chance that the fan motor burned up, causing the compressor to fail so the fan would be off but the compressor is buzzing and locked up. If nothing is running also check the circuit breaker it could just be he conactor you are hearing. At that point you need to figure out why the breaker tripped. Let me know what you find out

Sounds like your indoor fan motor is not working, check either the cap or the indoor fan motor it's self.
