Brown and white wires are for a manual lock/unlock switch. The master unit should also control the others manually. Push down or pull up on it and the slaves should respond in a similar manner.
Thank you
Really great video
When you screw down (clockwise) on the can, you open the valve and the freon will come out? When you unscrew it (counterclockwise), you stop the freon to come out?
menards sells a 3-pack of these mats for normally $20.... But right now all 3 are clearance for $9.50 together. I can't believe Harbor Freight sells them individually and for SUCH a high price.
NIIIIIIIICE... instead of just using the screws and bolts, you used a rivet and messed up the new handles.
I THINK THE 86 TERMINAL SHOULD BE THE POSITIVE
I needed to watch, but I still don't quite understand. It's hard for me to comprehend after some brain surgeries .. Are the relays different amps I have on my gmc Envoy? Can one relay be used for more than one device on the vehicle? I was checking fuses, and my neighbor was helping. He ended up pulling the relays after seeing testing with the 9volt. So, I have been doing a few things on the truck this summer. So I have some relays that has different diagram that shows on the side of relay and I thought I read online awhile back ago that the relays have to be the correct relay for the spots they go in. And there's different numbers on the top of most of them except the one black relay with nothing written on it. I believe that all clicked with the 9volt so I think they are all good, I just need to get this off my mind that will know which goes where and I I think your video was the better one I've watched..
this video content (in a good way) makes me fully understand and relates to how women feels and went through when choosing shampoo & conditioner
Thanks
Thank U - excellent Details !
2007 toyota fj cruiser here. Time to test. Thank you for the clear video. Excellent job
Fantastic video! Thank you for your help!
Excellent
Many thanks mate. Very helpfull tips especially the eventual smashing of the windshield.
Excellent thorough tutorial, Thanks.
very good simple explanation, thank you.
Mine has a flashlight and usb charger built-in instead of an inflater, and it's the positive cable that is broken. Very good tutorial nonetheless.
Thanks too much
The same one on the official companies website is $120
Great job on a DIY Instructional video: too bad I was ignorant to these jump starters because I owned a 2005 AC Delco jump starter. I was awarded the AC Delco jump starter for free for asking and answering a question when I attended the new auto buyer's seminar from the dealership where I bought my 2005 GMC Sierra. Years later in early 2019 I purchased a Super Start 1000 Amp Jump Starter - 55002 from Oh, Oh, O'Reilly's Auto Parts Store and last week I discovered that it is DEAD. I am nearly done disassembling the housing, so I can remove the battery and I hope I can find a replacement battery. In my humble opinion these portable jump starts are better than a membership with AAA or roadside assistance with USAA! I was really pissed off at USAA when I caught them tracking the number of times I used Roadside Assistance: it is a "sneaky method" that they use to increase your insurance premiums!
nice video sir
Very smart of you
Wait so why did the guy at AutoZone give me this if Im trying to find a vacuum leak
im lost on the two wires, one white and one brown, do they just connect to a door switch ? and if so, will it hurt since the switches has power of its own
Brown and white are for a manual door lock/unlock switch. You put negative (i.e. ground) on one or the other for lock and unlock.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍, GOING to change my sway bar.
Thanks for the informative video!
Doesn't work. Fuck it. I will just go buy a new vehicle
Got a premade wire harness that came in a kit with off road lights however the grounds on the relay go to 86 not 85 is that ok? Thanks
I understood your first video This one no I will watch a couple times but it’s very very confusing the way you did it . If I can’t understand there are plenty of better videos out there so at this point I can’t give you a thumbs up or sub sorry
Glad I researched about this. Will be a big help finding out what I need to. Thanks man!
Not for those of us with a mechanical fuel pump
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.
As long as the system has pressure, it will force any air out. The tool does not create any pressure of its own to work against the system pressure. I'd like to assume you've bled your brakes before. Why does opening the bleeder screw not introduce any air into the brake system? This is because there's pressure behind it pushing fluid out and it cannot suck air in. This is the same thing that's going on with this tool. Every shop I've worked at has had this tool. It is very useful and comes in handy. It saves time that would otherwise be wasted having to recover the refrigent to fix a leaking valve. Obviously if there's no pressure in the A/C system, you do not need this tool. Simply remove the valve, then vacuum before charging. I hope this helped 👍
Those look new compared to what I'm about replace! Great video thanks!
Nice job my man! 👍
Awesome
Just put the ⅜" adapter for regular ⅜" sockets in the large Craftsman ratchet and add as many ⅜" extension (of any length) that you need.
Hope to still see this. At 4:46 That clear filler to the bottom left of the carb. What is that for? No matter how hard I google I can’t find what it is
Awesome video. Thank you.
Right around 2:48 I thought.. This guy has got his instructional game way up. A brilliantly detailed and thorough explanation of all the different components here. Techniques as well. This is probably the 5-6th video I've watched on these particular tools and the rest just fall away. This one gets saved. "Auto Care" playlist.
Awesome great explanation
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.
What about fuse??
What about doing this with power window??
Thanks
FYI... it won't always turn as yellow as in this video. I did it and it turned greenish. So be aware. And yes I tested it on the exhaust pipe and got the EXACT same results.
Your the third person that's commented it turned yellow in the video, but in the video it is clearly a greenish muck. Watch again at 5:50 and compare that fluid to pond algae. Then compare it to a lemon or even urine. I only see pond algae, and I'm not color blind that I'm aware of nor do I have a bad computer screen 🤔
@@Rick-the-Swift The point of my comment was to let people know it doesn't always fully change into a color like it did in this video. This guy had a bad leak, mine did not.
Great video for beginners. You are an excellent teacher. Thank you.
Do they have one for Ford escape. Cause I am being told they don't have one long enough to do it?
Since 1/2 inch ratchet can also open smaller nuts, would it be better compared to 1/4 inch ratchet, assuming 1/2 can provide more torque?
Why do you people continue to live in Commifornia?
