AC woes

Our air conditioner is on the fritz again. We noticed that the air from the vents was not cold, and the house seemed warm. I checked the thermostat and the temp was up to 79 degrees in the house. I went outside and the condenser wasn't running, but the top was extremely hot to the touch. So, my guess is that the motor is fried (motor is directly below the hot spot). We have a home warranty, so the most we'll have to pay is 75 bucks. This warranty has saved us a ton of money, and I highly recommend getting one. I think I'll renew it for next year (cost $300 bucks for the year, came w/our house purchase).
