How’s your time in the field going bro

Great info I bought the same tool I have never used it yet so this was a great video for me

You are a good honest man. I just had a tech to check my system. And he didn’t find anything wrong with it but he tried to sell a new system for 7,500 when all I did was replace the run capacitor. Unfortunately there are a lot of thieves out there. I fix with a 15 part.

Yes there is. Capacitors and contractors are easy to fix. Everything else you’ll need a tech to get parts. Also you can buy a fan if it’s burned out. You’ll have to buy tools probably around 300-400 dollars

Wish I had this technology back when I started! Good luck

Nice video. Good knowledge. Keep posting videos..

I really like your videos!!

Good info to know. Thanks.

Very informative , Great 👍 tip ! Daniel Z

Great. Thank you for your support!

Thank you so much for your videos. Very informative to new techs like myself.

Why am I watching this on my holiday weekend off

4:17 #1 check winding continuity before putting the fan back on.....and NEVER use an impact gun, that's NOT what they're for.

On your compressor, measurement to ground is good to check, but what about winding to winding? Do you check that?

I've been having AC issues for nearly 2 weeks now and I've had 2 techs from the same outfit come out and the last one tried snowballing me that my compressor was on it's last leg. I'm about 85% empath and I can read people's body language and speech so I just "know" when I'm being fed a line of BS. Luckily I have a great cousin who works in R and D for Intertherm and he's coming out here tomorrow, we'll see what he says.

I’m curious to if your cousin was able to confirm you were right

you did not check the inrush (LRA) did you?

I’d say look into your loss of refrigerant before replacing compressor, low oil can cause overload and lead to failure too. Also, superheat didn’t look right to me so you may want to check out that txv

I thought you just had to look at the subcool for a txv! Sorry I’m new at the trade so I might be wrong.

@@angelrodriguez6427 you use subcool for proper charge level on a TXV, but you still have to have normal superheat. If not, there may be a problem with the TXV or elsewhere in the system, even if you know your charge is good.

Those meters say a scroll compressor is bad when it’s fine.

Since the cut off was in an open state, did the test meter test it correctly?

Yes because he was testing to ground. Thermal overload breaks common to round and start to run

Any thoughts on my unit tripping breaker 3 to 4 times in a day on 95 degree days? Unit still has original capacitor.

Check max breaker size on unit ñame plate and check breaker size and fuses size make sure all our capatible if it trips as soon as unit turns on then its grounded compressor and if not then probably a bad breaker or loose wiring

Could be a lot of things. But I would check the breaker and breaker size first

Maybe fan went out?

Im new to yr channel can you tell me the name of the device you used to check the compressor please

My unit blows cold air out of the fan does a bad compressor cause this?

Yes or a bad capacitor

Go to KZread and check out Packard Capacitor Training video. Heat or elevated voltage kills capacitors. You can wire 2 Capacitors in parallel for better heat dissipation.

You could just put your leads on the common to start to make sure it closes!?! That’s just me I’m not trying to keep seating and restarting not knowing if that switch closed

But you didn't find the leak though, aren't you supposed to find the leak and seal it?

Most leaks are near the evaporator coil and at that point most people just replace the coil but it’s cheaper in short run for people to just add a little refrigerant each season
