In this video I teach you how to fix your AC unit quickly when it is not blowing cold air. If it is blowing hot or warm air, you likely have a bad capacitor. I also teach you how to clean your HVAC unit and how to choose the best filters for air flow and efficiently.
Warning. Please research how to properly discharge your NEW and OLD AC unit capacitor. They both may/will hold electricity that is dangerous. It easy to safely discharge the unit, just be sure you are careful.

Be careful removing the capacitor, it stores electricity. You should always decharge the old and new capacitor before handling it. You can short it with an insulated screw driver common to herm and common to fan connections
Correct, thank you
@@BtwilliasGarage I was going to message you about that. I fixed my unit once and didn't know about discharging the unit. Very scary to find out after the fact! :)
Videos like this are why I love the internet.
Thanks man
Good video. I actually did this repair awhile back & it worked out great. One useful tip I would add is that before someone pulls the wires out of the capacitor, they should take a picture with their camera. Then you can easily see where everything goes.
Good call. Thank you
Omg.....it really worked, its 94 degrees here and I got my 2 yr old granddaughter, you truly are a Life saver 🥰 Thank you 😇
Glad that it helped! Thanks for letting me know and enjoy the time with your granddaughter
Dude, I sincerely can't thank you enough. You saved my family so much money. Watched your vid last night, and just installed the new capacitor a few minutes ago. Working better than ever now. Thanks!
That makes me happy to hear. You are welcome!
If it works then don't forget to replace the cap 🤘
Thanks for this video. My AC was blowing cold air for a few minutes then warm air only. Tried your screwdriver trick on the fan and it worked! Just replaced the capacitor for $13 and its working great!
Nice work man. You are welcome!
I did what you said (didn’t replace the capacitar though) and it worked! I will clean it in the morning. Thanks!
Your capacitor is going bad soon. You made it nearly to the end of the season, but expect to replace it before next summer. Don't let it burn your fan up
Wow.. Air at fan was blowing out cool air..turned unit off ..changed batteries.. Wait3d a lil while..turned unit on at thermostat and went outside and fan was blowing out hot air .. Its working but will check it again when it gets to the temp i set it to...just had a company to do ck up before it got hot..all was fine outside unit..so now i may buy a new thermostat..it is an old one.. If that doesnt work i will call company again..but right now it feels good..We are in N.C. too.unit was cleaned by company in May along with ck up but now i will clean it myself with Dawn!! Guy said coils wer dirty at the ck up..thanks for the info.. Happy to get cool air as it was hottttttt today ..and will be thru the weekend!!
I just got EPA CERTIFIED and plan on getting into the field. I am lacking confidence but videos like yours are helpful. Thank you.
Congrats! Thank you
Nice man got mine working! Explained everything in detail👍
Awesome! Did you replace the capacitor yet or are you just stick starting?
Excellent advice. We replaced the filter and washed the outside unit. Thanks.
No problem!
Hey this fixed my AC thank you soooo much!! It’s 110 degrees where I live.
Nice! Thanks for letting me know
I had vandals to keep messing with my ac till now it has finally quit cooling.
Last time they took my sir out and went and scrapped it when I was gone& my roommate.
But I let that one go.Because he has helped me.
Thank you!! Changed the Cap and we're cooling now.
Right on!
Thanks for the pro-tips. I was able to get the ac working
Glad I could help
Thanks for the video, I’ll give it a try. Although my outside unit sounds like metal hitting metal. I’m thinking it’s the capacitor because it cools for 30 minutes the fan stops buzzes and stops cooling the house.
Yep! Most likely capacitor beginning the fail. You can jump start it in the meantime, but don't leave it buzzing stopped. It will burn your fan motor up
Btwillia's Garage, I just took the cover off and it looks like the orange and yellow fan motor wire got cut from the blade. Maybe that’s all it is?
@@daniel9371 could be. is the fan still humming with it plugged in? Sometimes wires are not needed, but it depends on who installed it as far as if they left it a mess. Does the stick test work to start it?
@@daniel9371 if it clearly was cut them I would pull the main fuse and cut the breaker box off then repair the wires properly with a connector or soulder
Hello everyone,
It was mentioned in the video, but I just want to remind everyone to PLEASE make sure you connect the wires to the new run capacitor exactly as they were before. If the wires are connected wrong you may blow your fan motor or worse. Good idea to take pictures or a sure fire method is to label the wires b4 you disconnect the old/bad capacitor. There is also a run capacitor on the air handler unit inside the house that helps the blower motor start. It is usually the outside capacitor that solves the problem though.
Do you know if you could help me? I got the capacitor in with all the wires in the right spot but now I am only getting hot air to come out of vents. The fan on the outside unit is blowing out cold air. I think something is definitely wrong. I checked the cold pipe going into the house and it was hot. I turned off the unit and disconnected the power. Any thought on what I did wrong thanks!
Consider adding clean EVAP Indoor coil to your list.
Just fixed mine works like a charm!
Well I’m subscribed, you probably saved me hundreds. If not more. Thank you
Thank you sir!
Hey thank you this was very helpful.
You are welcome! Glad it helped
The wink got me! 🤣
Lol! 😉
My fan spins fine and I still have warm air. I pressed in the coolant valve and freon sprays out so I assume I have coolant in the system. What could me problem be
Thank you. Awesome, $20 capacitor repair.
+rob l nice work. welcome!
Next step, dump the nest. lol. You should get insulated screwdriver and touch common then move sideways to touch herm and fan contacts on capacitor to discharge so you don't get jolted.
What does it mean when the outside air is warm. But then makes a weird noise and blows cold. More weird noises then warm again.
Hi. My son and I got home and the air was blowing out HOT🙁😭😱The air comes on and the fan is turning outside. I thought it was all the bushes surrounding it; constricting air. We cut them all down, cleaned the unit with water. Nothing changed. I changed out the filter as well. Do you think it's the compasitor? Help! It's a GOODMAN..
I am a HVAC tech I've been doing this for 23 years it could be your compressor's going bad low on freon might not even be the run capacitor
@@jstrand8803 Thank you for responding..I called a tech.. they charged me $700.. He said it was the motor..I told him something isn't making sense.. it took him less than 20 minutes to fix it...🤦🏿♀️🤦🏿♀️🤦🏿♀️
@@sherriemac That is a big rip off! Am in a similar situation now and afraid will have to go through the same thing
Thanks! Will be on my way to Home Depot tomorrow morning!
Awesome! Best of luck! If they don't carry what you need then try Amazon
Very informative 👍
Thanks!
The more expensive filters do help to filter more allergens in the air especially for families with allergies. We have a lot of year around allergens in south Texas. I guess its a give and take, but I prefer a better air filter, its personal preference, but I do also see your point on air flow.
makes sense, they both have their places
⁰p
I've had multiple HVAC guys tell me to use cheaper filters. I settle for a good in between.
Man big thank you! This fixed my issue
Great to hear!
THANKS! got my A/C back up and running! however, you missed one very important step... CONCUSSIVE RECALIBRATION! the damn thing wouldn't kick on until I banged on the housing hard!
I am glad to hear that!
I'd recommend discharging the capacitor before removal.
That's good advice
How do you discharge the capacitor?
After turning OFF THE FUSES/BREAKERS. Touch it with a screwdriver holding the plastic or rubber handle. Sorry for the caps, it's very important that it have the power disconnected first
Your good work brother
Thank you!
I wish I could get you to come to Merced CA. I just got out of the hospital, on life support a bit so I'm not feeling like handling this but my landlord has refused to get anyone here to actually FIX my AC. 🥵😭
I wish you were closer and I would be happy to help out! Best of luck and glad to hear you are recovering!
Dude! Thanks man! Step 1 and it was the problem!
Happy to hear! Be sure to watch the rest of the video. You still need to address the problem..your capacitor
Hey I have a question when my unit is pretty weird when it’s hot outside it blows hot air but when it’s cold outside it blows cold air how do I fix this?
Thanks a lot man !!! The AC is working
That's awesome! Did you swap it out yet or are you just using the stick test to keep it going?
"For techs only." Nudge, nudge, wink, wink. Say no more, say no more!
Great video, Do you know if you could help me? I got the capacitor in with all the wires in the right spot but now I am only getting hot air to come out of vents. The fan on the outside unit is blowing out cold air. I think something is definitely wrong. I checked the cold pipe going into the house and it was hot. I turned off the unit and disconnected the power. Any thought on what I did wrong thanks!
I have a 3 T goodman unit the tech replaced a " weak capacitor " was reading 38 instead of 45 so he said they Replaced it , had a newbie with him ,
a 40 cap for a 50 cap " new one " that was few weeks ago Today my Unit Is Not Cooling ....
was it ok to replaced a 45 cap for a new one of 50 cap ?
what do you think it went wrong ?
thank you for your input 😎👍🏼
God Bless
today is June 19 2021
What happens if your AC unit outside is turning what is blowing hot air also my air filter is dirty I’m gonna replace that now would that fix the problem the AC filter
You need to clean the filters and the unit itself. It sounds like you have a bigger issue that may require a technican. Such as a leak and low refrigerant.
My fan is spinning but the is warm. Do you think its the compressor? And should changing the capacitor fix that?
Did u ever figure out the issue?
@@RyanKWilliamson i ended up calling the repairman and it was one of the capacitors.
My unit is a wall hung BARD unit that was making a huge racket outside and blowing warm air into the house here in FL. It got to 94 degrees inside. The A/C company came out and said the fan and motor were bad so he replaced it, put a little freon in the unit and it worked, but it's still making a racket even with the new fan and motor, it seems to skip a little and you can see the fan wobble inside. They are coming tomorrow and said they were going to charge me for labor. I paid $575 for the first fix on Oct. 19th! They mentioned the compressor. I said that if it was the compressor, the problem was misdiagnosed. It's very cool in here and the compressor kicks on just fine. I'm wondering if I'm being ripped off or what. Any advice? Thanks!
GOD BLESS YOU FOR THIS VIDEO 🙏😭😭😭 I sent this video to my hubby n sure enough the capacitor was the issue!! He switched it out himself saved us hundreds of dollars worth of repairs n service fees 🥹
GOD BLESS YOU . . ! My systems working now 😭
i did what you said it worked for a little then stopped working what do i do now
Did you swap the capacitor?
Excellent video
Thank you very much!
When I start the ac, it blows cold air, but after 15 minutes or so, the cold air is gone and it starts blowing cool/warm air. And the thermostats never go below 75 even when I set it around 63. Do I need to replace something?
Is the outside unit fan running when the warm air comes in?
@@BtwilliasGarage Strange, now my AC is working fine. My neighborhood had a pipe burst over the weekend and they fixed the pipe Saturday night. They mentioned something about water pressure not being back to normal so maybe that may have something to do with it?
Also, I live in a high-rise condo and my AC unit is in a closet and I can't even see where the fan is.. But let's hope that things are back to normal. Thank you for quick response!
@@BtwilliasGarage my AC unit outside is blowing cold air. But not cooling the house.
Thank you sir that work for me 👍
Hey bro GREAT VIDEO AND INFO!! YOU say you’re in NC? Bro I’m in Charlotte. How can I contact you? Thank you!!
So I changed my capacitor last June.
Today, the fan and everything is working fine, but the air is not coming out as cool and it will not get to my target temp.
Any thoughts on what it could be?
To start with the basics, are you sure you have put it in AC mode for the season? You would be surprised how many people request service calls for that. If you have, then you will need to find a more advanced video and person. You could have a leak, have compressor, etc. I do not have advanced knowledge past the basics, I'm sorry. Make sure that fan is really kicking ok, capacitors can slowly go bad and kick the fan on when you check, but then stop being able to start it by the time you are inside. I've had ones only make it 12 months
My ac turns on fine, new filters, coils clean (living in fl I clean often) blower works good just not blowing cold enough air gets to 79°-80° no ice build up thermostat test was good not sure what to do.
Same here
I am having the same issue. Anyone figure out a fix?
I couldn't figure it out, Arie clean the outside coils extra
it started working again working for now with just really cleaning it good I thought I had them clean but I guess not good enough, I also read that if it is over 92 degrees it can't cool down enough to cool house.. I live in S. FL
Neil Schweitzer it’s most likely the capacitor. Look up some UA-cam’ videos on how to change it, it is fairly simple to do. I could’ve done it myself but we already had somebody scheduled To come do it at no cost, and they had the part. They also replaced the Freon.
The pipe going outside to the ac unit in mine, is frozen, and not blowing cold air. I did replace the filter, I did clean the unit outside. Same problem still. The unit has not been tripped at the power panel. I don’t know what else to do.
Call a technician.
Most likely undercharged
Yeah no, I've paid 2 different techs that both charged me $79 to diagnose the issue and they both couldn't figure it out. They both suggested I just replace a 12yr old unit with a new one. At a cost over over 5k. My issue:
One day my ac went out, after trouble shooting, found out that the thermostat wires on my roof top a/c were so sun dried that they hade exposed wires and clearly took out my transformer (volt test showed I had 120 but no 24v. So I ran new thermostat wires and waited for my new transformer. 6 days later I installed and boom. Got 24volts and both the blower and compressor kicked on. Got off the roof went inside just to find out it's blowing hot air. Couldn't see any mixed wiring, so I thought it needed a charge. First guy came and told me that mechanically everything is fine. It has plenty of Freon and the pressure gauges don't seem to show any leaks. But he couldn't figure out what the issue was. So I called another company and they said the same thing, they tested the hi and low side and said everything there was fine. But couldn't figure out why the coils weren't getting cold. So now I'm stuck with having to pay 5k for a new unit after already investing $150 in new parts. Blah. Thanks for reading my rant.
Dang, sorry to hear! Best of luck finding an affordable solution!
Thanks man
I did everything u said. When I did the stick thing it worked. Got the fan up n running. But I finished the whole video so I knew I had to replace the compacitor. I got the exact same one. Replaced it. Was pretty easy.
I put everything back together. Turned on the ac at the thermostat and walked out and it was making the same noise from the fan.... so idk why it didnt work this time... I even tried to use the stick method again to jumpstart it... but this time jump starting it isnt even working... it feels kind of hard to move... I even tried to turn it both ways to make sure I was turning it the right way... please help me.
I need some advise. My unit blows warm air when its very hot and I am forced to spray cold water with the hose around the unit to get the unit to blow cold air. why is that? Is it because I have not clean the unit with soap like you showed on this video? Thanks
I would start with cleaning the outside coil the way you saw me do. Spray the water from the inside out and use dawn soap. It may be clogged
When an ac is bust. Amana= aw man
great video
Thank you
I've had an issue a couple of times with the drain line being clogged so I went out bought a Shop-Vac to unclog the line that didn't work try to jump-start the unit by spinning the blade that didn't work turns out the breaker was tripped
Stephanie S pahhahaha gd one
any idea why my ac blows cold air in the morning but hot air during night
Big kiss Bro, you just saved me 😆😆😆
You gonna kiss kim literally?? Like a MAN kiss 😗😗😗😂😂😂
What we do in our newly cooled down houses is our choice, David. 🤣🤣
@@BtwilliasGarage 😭
What if everything's running inside and out but still no cold air? Lines aren't frosted over.
Compressor running?
Low gas?
@@Froggability Hi she didn't answer lol but I need help! My fan is running sometimes I need to jiggle it and it will immediately kick but its not cooling inside. Ive replaced filter and cleaned the unit. Any ideas or suggestions? Ty in advance
@Healing - you most likely need a new capacitor as I showed in this video. Your wiggling it is doing the same as the stick test I showed.
@@BtwilliasGarage Hey thank u very much for responding and a great video!! I appreciate it
Your mention that hot air is supposed to come out from the top, what if that's not happening and just cool air is coming out?
Thank you for this video!
You are welcome! Did you get it going with the stick test?
@@BtwilliasGarage tried it and it did not keep turning. I tested the capacitor and it is completely dead. Just ordered another.
Good deal! Some die faster than others. That's probably a good thing it did so your fan motor didn't burn up. Hope that's not the case!
@Btwillia's Garage Hope so too. I’ll know once I get the capacitor. Thank you again.
Btwillia's Garage thank you so much! It works! I’ve had problems every year with my AC. I has John Moore came out one year and told me that my capacitor is bad. Charged me over $100. The next guy came and found a bad leakage, I paid a couple of thousand dollars and proved to me that the capacitor is actually the original one that came with the AC! Another year, the AC stop working because of a clog in my drainage but I was charged for replacing some board! You saved me a ton! Thank you so much!
Where can I buy a new capacitor? I can't find any stores that sell them or have them in stock. How much will it cost to just have an AC repairman come out and replace it?
Did you check Amazon? Make sure you order the same one as your system has on it now. Google HVAC supply stores. Some only sell to companies so either be prepared to walk in and act like a HVAC employee of tip the guy at the counter haha
You should tell people to discharge their c capacitor
My power company put locks on my disconnection box next to the HVAC unit, should I cut it to disconnect or would the circuit breaker be good enought?
You definitely need to pull the main fuse to the unit itself!
I just grnd capacitor and then you dont need gloves,lol
Correct 😀
Seems like whenever it's real humid out in the morning my air conditioner will come on and then when it shuts off the fan keeps moving outside blowing and then it starts freezing up inside so I have to shut it off the breaker and wait a while sometimes I have to do this twice before it will finally come on and cool and shut off completely like it's supposed to without the fan running outside what is the problem please help! Otherwise it cools really good.
awesome!
What if I do not hear that the unit is trying to come on? How do I test the capacitor?
Thank you, mine started running after first 2 steps. Crossing my fingers that it remains functioning.
You need to watch the rest of the video. Once it gets to the target temperature you are going to be in the same position. You need to replace the capacitor.
No cold air here, so I took a look at my capacitor and it doesn't seem like it's about to pop, it actually looks brand new but it's not, it's the original capacitor from 11 years ago when I bought the rooftop unit new, then. Replaced the inside filter is new and the surrounding coils are clean. I tried the stick test like you did, but it wouldn't catch on unlike yours that needed just a nudge. I have a capacitor on order, so I'll replace it when it arrives. If it's not the capacitor, what else should I check. The unit turns on and I have the Fan setting on On instead of Auto on the thermostat. It does make a noise and the vents are blowing air just not cold. What am I missing?
Sounds like you may need to look at the fan motor next. This video is the first check point that fixes many people's issue. I hate to say that yours is going to be more expensive of a part and likely will required a trained technican that you trust to not overcharge. Sorry man and best of luck!
@@BtwilliasGarage Thanks!!
@@jayd2655 might as well try the capacitor if you get it in time first. 11 years old is when stuff starts breaking though! HVAC companies state 8 years is typically when units are cheaper to replace versus throwing parts out, so definitely use a trustworthy company if it doesn't fix it
Hi, do I need to only have unit off when cleaning or do I have to shut it off with fusebox, thank u
It's best practice to pull the fuse just because of water and electricity
@@BtwilliasGarage thank u for responding
I need to clean my outside coils, l bought a screen cover on amazon pretty cheap, looks like a bug screen, and zips up, that will keep it cleaner. 👍
Very cool! As long as it does not restrict then I feel like you have a good idea
@BtwilliasGarage l fixed my A.C. today. It was blowing hot. l did everything l could think of to fix the A.C, then l went to put on a load of laundry, and that didn't work, so l reset the circuit breaker, still didn't work, then remembered the screw driver trick on the fan blades, l just hit the side of the blade to kick start it abs it works great. Turns out our building had a short circuit the night before
I'm a 65 year old female and still fix everything myself because of people like you on UA-cam. Thanks. 😊
@@Freyja123 right on! I'm so glad my video helped. Stay cool!
What store do you get capacitors at?
Local HVAC store. Amazon is best honestly due to requirements of being a company to shop there
mine is the fan runs but no cool air. Tech came out cleaned out the unit, refill Freon and said to monitor for few days. after two days, we are back to hot air blowing again.
Sounds like a leak. No telling where it is. They should have spotted it, but it sounds like they will be looking into it further now once you call back. Best of luck and ask for a discount or coupon!
@@BtwilliasGarage Thank you for the quick response. I have home warranty. Most likely I will end up paying the co-pay again:)
My Ac not working checking outside and the fan is blowing out cool air outside from the top of the unit does any body have any ideas
My ac cools only at night when its cool outside, in the day time its not keeping up with set 75 on thermostat, also liquid line is sweating also only when it cool outside, does anyone has any ideas? 8 did clean out evaporator with fan and condenser coils, new filter, new cap. Please let me know.
There's a liquid line or filter drier restriction
Mine is doing this too! Erick what’s a Liquid line and how can I fix it? Thank you so much
I am a HVAC tech I've been doing this for 23 years there is a reason why your run capacitor is going bad it's either the condenser fan motor itself is going bad or the compressor could be going bad it's pulling too many amps and killing the run capacitor you need to call your local HVAC tech
That may have been true in the old days but now a day it is cheap chinese capacitor with castor oil. They just do not last. I install american made ones for people who will pay for them and in 4 years never got a call back on them. I'm amazed how many people in $300.000 $400.000 homes will take the cheap chinese ones.
@@J-Colt and made in mexico
I should add, all are castor oil now and they are not as reliable as the old pcb ones and chinese and mexican as j strand mentioned are poorly made.
So is that the over all maintenance of an AC unit..
An experienced professional would certainly check out parts of the unit, but this is a good start to maintenance for an average homeowner that doesn't do bi annual "tune ups"
Ok thanks
Do you think the sunglasses in the house make you seem more intelligent?
Yes
Does asking a dumb question make you feel more cool? Like a high school bully? Dudes helping with information which is why you watched the video, who cares about sunglasses.
Can u get those cheap filters at home depot or lowes?
Yeah I'm sure you can. Amazon also has them if you want to order online. Link is in the description. Thanks for watching
I got 1 last week from Lowe's.. Costed $4.98..
@@PhyllisBennettNana I spent 13 bucks from Lowe's. Had to buy two.
I noticed he did NOT discharge the capacitor by putting screwdriver across terminals. This can give a serious shock to a newbie. Be careful discharge the capacitor before touching it.
Funny, are those Linemen s gloves or do you pour a lot of concrete :) You pulled the disconnect you don't need em.
Don't worry about my gloves 😂. Correct though, my father is a lineman and I use them just because. Great eye!
Very well done video. My only comment is warning about dealing with capacitors should have been added.
How to fix when your line breaks on your AC
You will likely need professional help with that. I have not personally dealt with it. Good luck!
Cheap filters. ✔
hem to common & fan to common
I’m sooo fuckin hooooot !!! 😭😭
Sooo I can't get the fan to jump start the unit
Unfortunately you have a "bigger" problem than the capacitor and will need to look into the fan motor, low Freon/refrigerant, etc. Best of luck! One day I may continue making videos on more advanced problems, but it may be a good bit. Sorry this didn't work
Yaaa the fans at like 190 degrees atm. Can't spin it. Oh well its a rental
The expensive filters are not primarily a marketing ploy or rip off. The higher the MERV rating the cleaner the air. Did you know a MERV 13 or greater will captuure Covid 19 germs and keep them from recirculating throughout a building. Here is the issue under normal conditions. If you don't have enough air flow as happens often because return lines aren't sized properly you choke off air flow and can burn out fan motors and not get enough cfm's at the registers. So making a blanket statement that they're rip off is moronic
Wish me luck
You got this!
Let me know if it works out for you
Something weird happened with your eye; might want to get that checked.
Yes I noticed that when I was editing this. I'll keep you posted if it's something serious
How do I find out which capacitor fits my unit? It’s an old unit that was here when I purchased the house.
You will need to locate the capacitor and read the model. Watch that portion of the video again and let me know if you have questions. Be careful when your doing it, as it does have live power!!! Or just turn off the breaker to be safe
Unfortunately cant see any wire switching, Thanks anyway
Just match the letters on the cap one at a time. It's labeled
herm
Follow your instructions .??? Are you an authority ???
What or where is the capacitore? 😂
@@SimplySunrider it's the cylinder I remove halfway through the video 👍
I didn't follow what you did. You are hiding most steps.
You may need to call a company for help if you were not able to follow this video. I showed each step pretty clearly. Best of luck!
