How to tell if the AC Unit is bad or just the fan motor?

My AC was doing great these past couple of days, the unit appears to be older. maybe 10-15 years? Anyway, last night and today, if you turn in on, you hear a light whirring, but the fan is not moving, and there is no cold air coming into the house. The HVAC itself is working fine by the way. Any thoughts or suggestions.

Answer:

Contact the local HVAC service center and have them do a service on the unit. If it is just a fan motor problem the diagnosis should take less than an hour then the RR will depend on the parts needed. Without the training to do the work you are just using AWAG about the system and it's problems.
