26 Year old unit still running! Good to see honest work and trying to replace parts like caps. Few people would probably just say it's dead and need a new unit! Watched your other video I've got a Actron from 2005 before the infamous soft starters came in, don't know why they had to re invent the wheel just stick with good ol contactor IMO. I had heard they have somewhat solved the issues with the soft starters just dying.
Good honest mistake that didn’t get cut out, respect. Should try your hand on some light commercial breakdowns. Changed a comp in a Hitachi CRAC today, was a 10k job for boys in suits.
Gotta love the old actrons. Those old outdoor boards have a couple of buttons, step and cancel. If you hold the cancel it will skip the on delay timer and start it up if it has a call. Love the vids mate keep em coming
Hey mate, awesome content! Just wanted to get your opinion between the 16kw Actron Advance vs 16kw Daikin Premimum. What are some pros and cons and which system in general is the better one. Features, Tech, Noise, Control Panel, Cooling/Heating, Warranty, Repair Costs
Nice quality video Mitchel, and you did sort out your simple capacitor wiring mistake. What you need is a wide comb brush like Curtis uses for the cobwebs and dirt 👍
Mitch content and owning mistakes is good , not following live electrical testing regulations may get you into strife! Did we all see an attempt to measure uf while juice was applied?
We have a 22 year old Actron ducted unit, still going strong, only thing it has needed is repairing burnt spade terminals on the compressor wiring and replacing the indoor fan deck about 6 years ago
Hello sir, my name is Shakib and I am from India. I repair the printed circuit board (PCB) of all the electronic items of a house like refrigerator, washing machine, AC, and oven. In this, I am more specialized in inverter. I am into repairing the circuit (PCB) of AC and normal AC. I want to come to your country and work and fulfill my dream, for this I will need your help, you can help me by giving me work, I am ready to come to your country! If you don't need a (PCB) technician right now, no problem, but please tell me the approximate monthly salary I will get in your country.
Hi Mitch can I ask an unrelated question about an Actron ducted system in a house ive just bought it has two return air ducts one up each end of the house ,Im sure when i first moved in return air was going back up each duct but after a reset of the control board inside house only one return seems to be open now ,do i have to do something to make both work again as i had to set up the zones again also .Cheers Paul
Yeah mate. However now I keep my backpack at the back right of my van and also I have now incorporated the m12 impact drill to my kit. th-cam.com/video/qVxdO6brT-4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Dx1HCsQrvRrrcH51

Soft starters was added to meet MEPS compliance and to comply with the energy authority regs.
Thanks mate. The older units were quality!
