I just scored another window unit off craigslist for $20. Haier 12kbtu 10 seer unit, owner said it just quit after the 90 day exchange warranty expired. No love from Wal-mart, so he sold it for double the scrap value. I'm in the process of restoring control board operation, it seems it got power surged and killed the buffer chip between the brain and muscles. Once i make it operate, I will be turning it into a "puppet on a string" by way of the shorted buffer IC. Dead simple to do as far as electronics goes.
