Window units depend on installation as much as on components. A unit that is not tilted slightly toward the outside will drip indoors, and a filter left dirty reduces both cooling and airflow.
When the fan runs but cooling stops, the coil may be freezing because of low airflow, or a thermal protector may be cutting the compressor out. Switch the unit off at the plug and let it thaw before drawing conclusions. Sealed-system work on a window unit is rarely economic, so diagnosis matters before spending money.
