More information please, are the belts smoking? if yes the obvious answer is to loosen them, if it is not the belts smoking then what is? electrical?

Hi Whipppy.
Time to call in someone to look at your unit.
From the little you post.
You could have slightly tighter drive belts that are still slipping.

Where the increased tension has
increased the friction/ heat build up between the belts and drive pulley.

Or you could have still slipping belts against a seizing compressor etc.etc.

Whatever is happening it sound like a recipe for a fire.
Get it looked at please.
