    If you use this tool you will introduce air into the ac system. This is not a proper way to do this repair unless you have a way to vacuum out the air after you install the NEW SCHRADER valve into the tools. NO AIR SHOULD BE ALLOWED IN THE AC SYTEM PERIOD THATS WHY ITS A SEALED SYSTEM. IF YOU DISAGREE EVERYSHOP IN THE WORLD WOULD HAVE THIS FYI YOU MIGHT NEED TO UNDERSTAND HOW A AC SYSTEM WORKS.

    You can replace the high side port. You don't have to replace the whole thing. And when you replace it you can either get it with the rubber bladder or with a schrader value.

    Hey man just wanted to say thanks for this simple and helpful video. I needed my headlight bulb connector changed and I called a couple mechanics and they told me they were weeks out plus it was going to cost over $100 at least to fix. So I looked up videos and found yours. Bought the part for $20. Took my time, and 40 mins later it was fixed and works! Saved me a ton of hassle and time and money. I also know a new skill now. Thanks!

    Hey thanks I enjoyed your video question for you though. I have a pack. I believe I can harbor freight one of those, but the batteries fully charged it even reads it on my multimeter, but nothing comes out of the cables. It is missing the charging port USB charger port, but that shouldn’t do anything. Does I still keep it charged just pull it out and put my other little battery charger that I got in charge the battery and keep it charged but I don’t get anything out of the cables.

    Blue wire (from battery to relay): This wire typically carries positive current from the battery to the relay. The relay is an electric switch that is activated when it receives an electrical signal. In your case, the blue wire goes to the relay to activate or control a function, such as starting the engine or operating other electrical devices. Black wire (from battery to switch): The black wire usually indicates negative current or ground. In your case, the black wire goes from the battery to the switch, meaning it carries current to the switch used to control electrical devices. White wire (from switch to relay): The white wire typically carries a control signal from the switch to the relay. When the switch is activated, an electrical signal is sent via the white wire to the relay to activate it and allow or prevent current flow to the consumer. Red wire (from relay): If the red wire doesn't go anywhere from the relay, it might be a spare wire or intended for another function that hasn't been implemented. In some installations, a red wire is used as an additional output for current to other electrical devices. Black wire (from relay to ground): This black wire usually serves as ground or the return path for current from the relay to the ground or the negative terminal of the battery. This ensures that the electrical current has a closed loop for return, enabling the proper functioning of the electrical system. Is this correct? Thank you for your answ.
