I believe that is the sensing bulb for the expansion valve. It allows the expansion valve to sense the heat load on the evaporator. It should be wrapped to the suction line with insulation tape.

@@tobiastrotter6449 I am actually taking this young technician to each one of these leaks and explain to him how each one occurred and what kind of mistake and how to prevent it in the future.

I am guessing that copper wire is a "temp" probe type thing that should be in the evaporator air box, or toughing a metal line at the evaporator? and the probe opens and closes a variable orifice metering type device to regulate the amount of R12/R134a coming through that part of the system?
lol, but it's not shaped like a bulb, therefore it must not be a sensing bulb! Hey Tom, do you know where a civilian might be able to obtain a small quantity of R-32? I need to run a long line set and I have no idea where to find it.
@@WaffleStaffel I guess because we’re in different locations when I punch in Google I just put in R32 and a whole bunch of adults came up to sell in large containers and small containers. Then I went up top to shopping And that narrowed it down to everything for sale .

I appreciate expecting people to work for their goal on any subject in life. But you pass up so many opportunities to explain stuff fully by "making someone search for the answer". They are almost gaureteed to notngo through the trouble. For one they don't even know what it is. It doesn't apply to most modern ac systems. I'm enjoying learning from your videos. It would be so much more informative if you gave the final pieces of the puzzle after criticizing everyone for their lack of knowledge 😅
@@kaseycoleman993 there was no criticizing in this video. It was all teaching the student. No I will not lower myself down to snowflakes. Don’t want to do no work at all for learning something.. Little bits and pieces of information later on and other videos if they give up that easy, they could go flip burgers . 🍔 If I catch somebody’s interested, who’s really interested if they’re serious, they will work for it. I know there’s many who will not search or work for it. Then I don’t want them as a student.. I’ll take somebody by the hand and walk him and explain every procedure and step and repeated it until they get it. But they show interest and it’s not their calling there’s other trades or other things to do. Inside Have zero tolerance for lazy.

I'm with you 100% on everything you said. Just remembering hearing you say numerous times the bigget problems with auto ac industry is people's lack of proper instruction. If they're watching your videos it's because they want to know the right way! I'm greatful for all the info and am definitely taking notes
i wished he could retire and do online classes. i have watched welders machinist for years .u only get bits and pieces and by having that interest u do more investigating. u hunger for the knowledge. then u find the teachers and it goes on and on. hes just trying to peek your interest and open your eyes, not a instructor or teacher. He pointed me to love2havc they teach on their channel. so watching them and this channel has helped me. hes guiding me to a path of learning if i choose to want to. i choose to look everywhere i can for this info. now im studying the three gas laws. its school all over again
Incredible 😂

@@matthewwaskevich2898 yes 👍
Haven't done automotive in 40 yrs but speculamating that the curlycue goes into a particular spot between the fins near the exit of the evaporator.
i almost put my foot in my mouth. i was gona say on the outgoing line super heat side and then i realized thats what he was saying. hehehe
You are so funny 😅
It's the sensing bulb that should be wrapped around the evap outlet line
@@jharrison6557 you are correct ✅ 👍
this is an extra spare part 😀
@@markaircon for wrapping up wires and holding them up ? 🤭
And it going to need some copper plumbers tape, screws and armaflex tape.
@@commenter5469 don’t forget silicone and superglue.
I have my 608 universal and I know exactly what it’s for.

It should be good just stuffed up there out of the way. 😂. The sensing bulb is just an overrated gimmick. 😂😂

@@freddyhollingsworth5945 yes, but it’s not a wire .
It’s a hollow tube. Filled with refrigerant. To expand or contract . To do what you said.

@@WaffleStaffel I checked Google. It looks like they are available online..
Pricey stuff when you buy it in the little cans.
@@coldfinger459sub0 Thanks man.
@@coldfinger459sub0 I just can't find it in small quantities anywhere, whether I call it R-32 or Difluoromethane. Do you remember where you saw it?

Also maybe motivate the young guys to learn something instead of shitting on them for not being taught.
