Looks like your overload relay caused a small fire

nice job bro... hope you've shared your wiring technique to us...

they need a new unit ...

That's obviously some kind of retrofit and not a very good one at that. I would have been embarrassed to leave such sloppy wiring in any unit. I think you did them a favor. Somebody or something let the smoke out. You put it back in, awesome job bro!

The funny thing is that it came from the factory like that

Actually, I retract my statement. I just remembered something. This sports club has their technicians work on the a/c units. Their techs are there to fix all the work out equipment, not the a/c equipment. Most of my calls there have been for things their techs have messed up on the units or cannot figure out what's wrong.
