I can say that every single video has been very educational for the fact that it’s been in real service calls and that’s why I like it, besides that you explain very well step by step. Please keep posting videos on real service calls so we can learn from you, thanks.
Nice that you had that little platform to sit on instead of mud. I had a fan motor with a bad capacitor. It got so hot that water sprayed on it would instantly boil away. That was about 6 years ago. The motor, which was made in India, is still running! And in Louisiana, it runs half the year.
Thank you Sir I miss your updates you've taught me so much. Luckily Steve Lav and Curtis are daily updates Ted has been not updating anymore on a regular schedule.
Nice one John. I had a 31 year old lennox today go out on thermal overload and it wouldn't close again no matter how long I ran water over the compressor. I even tried hitting the compressor with a mallet to try to get it to run
John thanks! I’ve been watching you for years but this was probably my favorite. Good length and lots of pro tech tips. On one of your next videos can you please explain the correlation between how much the suction pressure should vary if it’s 80f vs 105f outside. Thanks
John if you look on that label on the unit again you will see it says "field charge" instead of "factory charge" that indicates as you said it was a dry ship unit so you were correct.
Seems like all of the 3 wire caps have a finite life. When I replace with two separate caps they seem to do much better. I think it's heat that kills them.
Cool little trick bro! I will definitely be doing that! Love your channel man. Really wanna talk to you about getting a website. I'm in business myself in North GA and marketplace is frustrating at times lol. I ll talk to you more when you do another live chat! Ronny here. Take care
Hey Dude have you seen the magnetized compressor hose attachment? Its great when needing to chill unit down!!!!!!!!! I forgot the company name but dude great when you wanna do other things and it latches to compressor and you can walk away!!!!!! And great knowledge to know when they come out of lockout!!!! This is why I follow you!!!! I would love to pick your brain to know other short cuts and trade knowledge!!!!! Thank you for the Vlogs!!!!!
Dont Imus understand why residential techs never check amps on compressor or fan after changing caps. Those caps dont just run out of juice so to say. It's always a sign something else is wrong. A season tech will look why caps were discharged and most of the times you find it from amp checks.
Never measure yourself with someone else’s opinion. You’ve made it this far so keep doing you John! Love the videos
Great tip for knowing when the compressor cools down. Great video
John, you're the only UA-cam A/C tech that has enough experience or knowledge to check your new capacitor before installing. Well done.

very informative, i've recently entered this field and am trying to learn what I can.

I agree with your analysis. Came very close to a replacement.
I bought one of those laser thermometer "guns" from Amazon, and man - that thing really helps with temp issues. All over the house.
Yes the pressure not to bad Great job 👍
Good job John 👏

I saw you do that in a video a while back, I've been doing that ever since. Awesome tech tip.
70's good. Only do what they want.
great vlog as always man.

Definitely appreciate the tip with the alligator clips on the run and common!

I love your videos !
I wish I could hire you John. We need you bro.
Great video John!

Great 👍🏻 video bro keep them coming
You bring ur wife also, ha me too. She wouldn’t have it any other way nor me!! :)
9 times out of 10 is the overload due to a bad capacitor?

Called a CoolPressor.
Nice to watch a tech instead of a salesman . Just saying.
What causes thermal overload? I changed my cap last season. Could it be the cap again?
The fan was not working because it had a bad capacitor. Thermal overload is from heat or compressor failure.
You need a Supco Coolpressor!!!!! Look it up!!!! Save me tons of time!!!
Can I convert 404a to 407c without changing original 404 txv?
Damn cool to know
Contactor looked pitted. Looks like that's why the cap discharged
Cap'n'go!
I would have sold them a new unit faster than she could say green sky 😆

Yea I edit out a lot too and then get cry baby comments about it.... don't feed the trolls !!
Come save my unit lol. Seriously.
👍
Why not clean the inside of unit? Hack repair!!! Watch Steven lavomire for a good job!!!
Nice field work . Keep your presentations coming .
