At Carbon's Garage, my videos tend to focus on DIY tinkering on my Jeeps or our other vehicles or some other type of household repairs.
My automotive and repair videos tend to provide tips and tricks I come across as I'm doing the work. Like you, I usually scour UA-cam first to learn how to do things, then as I'm doing things I find a few things "I wish that video had mentioned." That's what I try to capture, so others have a slightly less frustrating experience.
I try to respond to comments regularly, so don't hesitate to comment on videos.
You can also follow me on Twitter, Instagram (links below) or even send me a coffee.

Don’t let your A/C ruin your ceiling – install a drain pan condensate switch
If you have a drain pan under your home a/c unit, especially if your unit is in your attic instead of garage or basement, you want - need - a condensate cutoff switch for your pan. Some setups also have a switch in the condensate drain line but for my setup, if the condensate line backups up it gets dumped into the pan under the a/c unit. If that pan doesn’t drain and overflows, it’s going to start flooding the upstairs of my house!
This is video 4 of a mini-series as I tackle some DIY projects on our home HVAC. It only takes about 15 to 30 minutes to install this, doesn’t require major tools, and only costs $20. Let me show you how to install this two-wire switch.
Parts:
• Rectorseal 96100 Magnetic Float Switch AG-1100 amzn.to/3zrWRU1
• Orange wire nuts (1 or 2): amzn.to/3VT4hXQ
• Multimeter: amzn.to/41gRhxA

Keep your battery charged by replacing the alternator on your Jeep TJ
I've heard some people say that you shouldn't get antifreeze on the serpentine belt, because it can cause it to squeal. Do you have any issues with the belt squealing? Thank you for making this video.
@@fredmeyer3063 I did not have any issues with belt squeal. Avoiding getting coolant on the belt if you can always sounds like a wise idea though. On our Subaru, I have had issues with belt squeal but that was because I didn’t tighten the tension enough. A bit more tension and the squeal stopped. So if yours is squealing, try adding a little more tension on the belt (but obviously not TOO much). Thanks for watching!

How long do you think this rubber slinger seal would last and also by seeing it I don't think it stops water. Plz tell Regards
@@maverickforever Great question! The only answer I know is “not 25 years.” 😁 Seems like something that should somehow be inspected regularly but I don’t know how you could without a borescope. Maybe if you remove it from the Jeep and in some good lighting you can flex it enough to see if it’s come apart?
@@CarbonsDIYGarage 😂, yes it needs. Anyways your video helps a lot to all of us who have this double cardan which is quite tough to maintain. You made it so clear. Regards

Dude thanks! I had the same issue with it idling high for a few weeks now and I was about to buy a new throttle body but i decided to try this first. I didn’t apply nearly as much throttle body cleaner as you did but it took a minute and it finally started to run at normal rpm’s
@@Millennial_Dividend_Investor Glad the video helped you out. Thanks for watching.
13:20 so I actually had no issue doing the u-joint with the centering yolk (by luck as much as anything, I'm sure) One key thing: I left the caps on the two bearings that were going into the centering yolk, I only removed the caps that were going in the u-joint cardon. With just those caps off, you get some wiggle room while seating the joint into the centering yolk cradle with the caps on I just pressed the centering yolk down first (you should see some red grease shoot out a tiny hole in the back of the yolk where it faces the u-joint). As I pressed the caps into the cardon, it had the effect of centering both of those spindles. Sorry I know that's a little difficult to visualize with words, but I hope that helps someone

Would this work on an 07 coupe? My light doesnt stay on but when it pops on it causes my car to stall :/ It more commonly pops on when my road is bumpy
If your car stalls when your Air Bag light comes on, it sounds like you have a bigger electrical problem than just a sensor coming unplugged, maybe a loose wire somewhere. I don't think the trick in this video will help you, unfortunately.
Just what I was looking for. Thanks for sharing this.

Looking to do this repair on my 2014 6 cylinder 3.6L - can you send the link for that sensor?
From what I can tell, the 2014 Chrysler 200 3.6L 6 cylinder has two coolant temp sensors, one at the oil filter and one at the cylinder head. The one at the oil filter is the same as what I use in my video (Standard Motor part number TX195: amzn.to/3T80u8O). The one at the cylinder head is Standard Motor part number TX259: amzn.to/4cLHpjw This is best I can tell via RockAuto.com I hope that helps and thanks for watching.
@@CarbonsDIYGarage Thanks - sounds like a bit more difficult to change than what is in your video. That correct? Was considering doing this myself but concerned about the difficulty
Does a Buick lacrosse have one my car is dripping alot of water out
Every modern car radiator should have a drain valve on it. Where it's located and what it exactly looks like will vary. It should be at the lowest point of the radiator, though, probably by the coolant hose at the bottom of the radiator. If you search for the valve/petcock for your particular year/make/model, you can probably find a picture of what to look for. Good luck! Thanks for watching.
Does this module need to be flashed???

Does it work with iPhone

So what I'm understanding here is to tighten them down enough to hold them in place, but then drop the jeep back down fully on its wheels before torquing down fully?

Nice tip 👍 less wind noise is always good 👍
The deposits are from adding the wrong type of coolant and tap water. Every engine has different types of metals used throughout the building process. The coolant is designed to minimize and extract the heat from the engine. This requires other minerals being used within the coolant that work with the metals of the engine. When you put the wrong coolant and tap water, it reacts to chemically to the compounds in the coolant., thus giving you the deposits.
Exactly what I was looking for. So glad you made this video!
Excellent! I'm glad you found it, Alex. Thanks for watching. If you don't mind, consider giving the video a thumbs up.
@@CarbonsDIYGarageI certainly will!
Hey, thanks for tye video, I'm currently havingcsimilarcissues on a cobalt. Did the TCM swap fix this?
Thanks for watching, Richard. Update from January 2022: I installed this new TCM in June 2021. I went "problem free" until October 2021 - almost long enough to convince myself it was fixed. I cleared the codes and it behaved normally again. I'd pretty much at that point decided I'd just keep a code reader handy and when it does this, just clear the codes and it should resolve the problem for a while. In other words, just live with it. Unfortunately, the car got wrecked (other driver's fault) in December 2021 so we'll never really know if I'd have been able to actually solve this problem. So, sorry, nope - it didn't fix it in the long term. Good luck with yours!
Did you get P2544 and P0700 codes aoong with u0073? I get no start, no crank, no fuel, no abs, no traction control then it'll be fine. Thanks again.

How do you remove an arm that isn't broken in that spot? Any idea?
I'm pretty sure there's a little lip at the end of the arm that, when the lever is pushed all the way in, will drop down and basically lock the lever in place so it can't easily be removed. I don't see a good/easy way to slip a little screwdriver in there to try to lift that little arm up to 'unlock' it. I think the only option is probably to use a pair of needle nose pliers and pull (hard?) to get it out and hope the little plastic arm doesn't break? Or maybe run a longer wood/drywall screw into the middle (there's a little hole) and then use pliers to pull out on the screw? The screw method would have you pulling from the center so that might work better. If the little lever arm breaks, you can probably push it all the way through/into the a/c box (it might even drop out the floor vent) but then you've also broken that lever and need to buy a new one. Not great answers; might give you ideas, though. Thanks for watching the video; can you thumbs up it if it's earned it? (maybe even subscribe?)

I was going to replace both the intake and exhaust actuators, but they're $71 each at O'Reilly's, I was told they were cheap, so now I'm thinking about just cleaning them, which one has the screen on the end, the intake side or exhaust side?
@johnreed7029 $71 each!? That's highway robbery. The link in the video description takes you to the parts I used, off Amazon. $25 total for both the intake and the exhaust! I don't have the car anymore, but for as long as I owned the car, we had no troubles with these replacement actuators. With respect to your question, I don't personally remember screens on the end. If you click the link for the parts in the video description (amzn.to/4fuUxwa) and look at the photos and the video, best I can tell there are no screens in the ends/bottoms of either intake or exhaust.
