Dude!!!! I’ve been following you for years and my a/c finally decided to poop 💩 the bed and guess what? I wasn’t sceeerd! Through your videos I immediately diagnosed the problem when I heard the compressor making a loud noise. I had a hunch that it was the capacitor and it was. Thanks and I always throw a 👍 like whenever you post. Thanks again bro and wishing you well.
I love doing dishwasher repairs. Its something about turning them upside down that makes them easier to repair. You should be in a mentor position with maintenance, it's too bad this industry doesn't have that ladder!
Most of the time I find it's something stuck in the pump Wouldn't matter I greatly appreciate your videos Vance, I'm positive your videos helped me a long to actually becoming a technician. So that's the end of my complaints 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 When I first started watching your videos I was a porter😎 I've been a tech now probably three and a half years, it's awesome😁
I got a badass job thanks to what I learned from you. Because of that I have enough time/money to achieve my big goals. You’re potentially changing lives. Thank you!
If it wasn't locked up I would suspect the 10uF run cap. Trying to start and tripping the overload is just like what you see on your condenser repairs. I'm always learning something new on your channel, thanks.
Dang. Didn't realize that GE made it so difficult to hand spin those motors now. At the old Universal Colostomy Yard. I mean University Courtyard we could still reach in there and spin em by hand to break em loose. Pretty sure that I have these same stainless units where I am now in Pensacola so I really appreciate the tip (as always). Good looking out skid!
If you save up a pile of old motors,you can scrap them and get $10-$20 each for them. Not much but it can be a nice bonus instead of just throwing them in the trash. 👍
Motor seems to run fine in mine.... just constantly trips and turns off seconds after starting. Replaced the control module, and that wasn't the problem. How do I fix this issue?
I'd need to be there for this head scratcher 🤔. I would look at the power wires coming into the dishwasher. Could be a faulty motor as well. Too much to look at to diagnose in comment section.
@@LexVance I ohmed the relay for the float switch The water inlet is good I pulled from another washer tried that too The pump looked like it could not be replaced it hadetal part that held hoses together that were clamped on/bracketed on as whole part .
Man I'm sorry changing out the motor. Off subject question. Seeing that those are newer apartments, Are they on Smart locks? If so, using chirp app? Physical key also with the smart lock?
Lex, im having trouble with this unit. replaced txv, replaced dryer filter, removed and cleaned coils when i swtiched txv, but this darn unit keeps freezing. pressures are good, fan motor is good. wont freeze till 4 hours later. any clue?
See if there's a fire damper above the air handler in the plenum. You'll have to cut the plenum to see. Use foil tape to tape it back. If the fire damper is closed, it'll freeze the unit due to no air flow. Try to open them back up with big zip ties or something. Thank you so much for watching William!
@@LexVance got it, thank you lance! If per chance there’s no dampener what would you recommend from there? Would hate to recommend replacing if it doesn’t need it
No, I'm way north almost to Georgia. The apartments should have their own maintenance techs, though. Or the property manager should call someone to have it fixed. I worked in student housing as a maintenance tech for 8 years.
@@LexVance lol I wasn't asking because they need anything. Your location on YT comes up as Tally. Funny though I got him up there 2 weeks ago and he calls me "dad the disposal is smoking what should we do" ugghh unplug it and call maint. :) They actually came right away and replaced it so good on them. Just found your channel good stuff! I saw your Carrier video. Made me not so happy but I am thinking like you mentioned mostly self inflicted installers not following proper procedure. We have 2 two year old Carrier's in a new house. One started running the inside blower 24/7. I ran some tests it was the X13 module like most of them. Even though it was under warranty it was cheaper for me to buy a rescue motor than pay the labor for the free part. Thanks Carrier! How many X13's are going bad there? Luckily I would rather have it stuck on than off. The third symptom is they ramp on and off. My smaller unit has a Broad Ocean ECM. Are you finding those go bad as well? I might have to go OEM on that not sure anyone makes a rescue for that one.
@@LexVance Yes PSC motors that lasted 30 years. The ECM motors are supposed to me more efficient but when they don't last you aren't saving any money. It's not actually the motors but the modules that break. In many cases a new motor is cheaper than the just replacing the module. It's really nuts they can't make these modules better. Some guys convert ECM's to PSC's. There is a board you install to make it really easy although it can be done without the board.
Using ryobi and installing that outlet in that location when you built the place... shameful sir! Haha just kidding! Great video as always! Thanks for sharing lex!
👍😆👍 I get some real doozies in the comment section. Not only do I maintenance the property but I also built it. 🤦🏻♂️ Thank you so much for watching Steve!

So my question was why did it lock did you figure that part out I enjoyed watching you flip it upside down that was fun
No I didn't. I sprayed it down with WD -40 off camera and it never broke free. Thank you so much for watching Orlando!
Hey have a question what was the size tools that you used to take those parts off for the motor

The pump looked like it could not be replaced it hadetal part that held hoses together that were clamped on/bracketed on as whole part .
I would love to have an outlet behind dishwasher. Much easier. Fuck them haters...its better than wire nutting 3 wires together...
So true!

Please help….. I have same dishwasher and when I start it, it makes this LOUD BUZZING NOISE AND THEN STARTS…Does same thing when it stops. I hate it.
Could be the solenoid. I'd need to be there to see what's going on.
Interesting I used to lay the d/w on its back so that any access water would flow to the back of the tub of the d/w
Great idea, I'll try that. Thank you so much for watching Charles!
I so wish my property had enough slack on the connections to flip it lol
So true! Some give you no slack. Thank you so much for watching David!
The fasteners you encounter are all imperial correct?
I'm not sure of the name.🤔
@@LexVance
what? Imperial versus Metric. Inch vs Centimeters.
I hand wash my dishes during the week when everyone is at work and I use the dishwasher on the weekends so I guess I use mine enough to prevent this 🤔
Yep! Once a week use will keep it moving. Good to hear from you Nathaniel!
Any idea what would cause multiple solenoids to fry on that model? Everything looks good but it’s cooked two or three different ones
Bad timer. We called Ge and they gave us that answer. Replace the solenoid and the timer and you'll be good.
@@LexVance I appreciate the advice, thanks man. You’re helping us work smarter, not harder to make that easy money! Keep up the great work
Not gonna lie. Soon as I saw the GE logo my first thought was that safety switch 😅
👍😆👍
Cost of motor verses new unit.?
About $12 savings, lol
Not much. 😆
Oh no Lex its using a ryobi!!!!

Why are you using a Ryobi? I thought you were a professional

@@scotts4125 Yes, Ecm modules are going out a lot on 3 year old units. I prefer the old school motors with the 5 mfd capacitor.
