Good job Steve, It's amazing how electrical and mechanical systems can still work in some of the dirtiest conditions.
I like that you knew something was wrong with the capacitor Steve, sweet video and learning video. Have a blessed weekend and keep them video's coming 💯💥👍☝️
I'd say in the majority of his A/C repair videos the cap is bad! That one looks like it may be original. Check it using microfarids on the meter.
Nice job checking the labels, was wondering myself since it sounded odd. Now you gotta get 3 caps for truck stock. 50-5, 10, & a 50-10.
Nice work! It was nice hearing the compressor fire up.
Mine is from 1994 same one still working but juts went out yesterday, surprised it lasted that long.
Missed you yesterday, Steve! Thanks for all you do!
All you do..? It's his business like a electrician, Plummer mAuto repair.
@@thepoopsoup apparently you don't watch all his videos as he posts cooking and travel videos from time to time plus it is a lot of effort and time consuming to video his work then edit it in his spare time every day!
Can I get an autographed picture? I collect my TH-cam heroes. I watched you while I was in quarantine for Covid a few years back. Maybe one with Molly as well?
Just send him a letter with your request and include a "Benjamin" and I'm sure he'll be happy to help you!
@@dickhertz8103 Don’t know how to contact him.
Must old unit pm coil is dusty bolcing not cooling outdoor must pm .ok indoor coil filter celing ok bowerusing ok
Was getting Worried Lav No Video yesterday,, Good to See ya Working Brother,
Nice troubleshooting!
Good fix
Nicely done, sir!
Missed you yesterday. Hello Steve and Molly
Missed you yesterday too - hope you are doing ok ❤️ to Miss Molly
We have still our old Trane ac unit its still working great to this day
Nothing Can Stop a Trane!
Hey Steve and Miss Molly! Workin’ again y’all. 👍👍
Hope you are doing good Steve
you can't stop a Rudd, mama! 😂
hey, that coil has a sweater on. Needs a good cleaning. do you ever use chemicals to clean the nasty coils? on all your videos you only hose them out with plain water.
you are not a believer in coil detergent? do you put tablets on inside drip pan to keep drain clean, or do you not believe in those either? just curious.
thank you for your videos. you are an honest man.
Steve just talked at some length on why he does not recommend coil cleaner. Play every video he put up in last 5 days. You’ll hear it while he’s driving.
I have the same exact air conditioner, and it has a same exact capacitor.
For these AC units, it looks like if you can change a cap and insert gas, you can fix 80% of the issues with these.:) Maybe a fan motor now and then.
Those coils look like they need a lot of love with some coil cleaner and a hose.
Success !!!
Hello Steve!
Steven and Miss Molly back in Action 👍
hello Steve and Ms Molly.
Hello, I was curious if anybody out there has an opinion about the air conditioner service contracts that some of these companies tried to sell? I was quoted $229 for the year is it a waste of money or is it something not needed because I can perform basic tasks on the air conditioner how much further will they go and is it worth $229. Thanks in advance for any input.
got to do what you got to do ... she will be happy now
Have a lot of those old Rheem cubes in my area. Pretty reliable, but that one side of the coil near the compressor always gets dirty first and worst.
There are 1000s of those little Rheem cubes in my area still. They run very well.
Yes I still see them around. Very reliable. Im not a fan of there indoor coils. They get restricted and not easy to clean out
They are good units but for some reason the condenser coils are always dirty. You can have another brand next to it and they will be twice as dirty. Idk if it coil fin spacing or who know what.
A couple weeks ago I had a bad capacitor on an old Weather King unit, all the info on the capacitor itself was non existent. I googled the model number to see what capacitor it needed. I got lucky and found what kind of cap it uses.
What size yellow wire you use to jump th common?
same size as other common wire is a good practice
Why 2 capacitors? Thanks.
What Capacitance Value, was the old Capacitor's 50 Microfarad. Reading? Thanks!
I saw 45.xx on the meter. You didn’t?
@@dock_yard1149 Thanks. I didn't see that.
4.5
Great electrical diagnosis. BUT, clean that damn thing. Very nasty
These use R22 refrigerant ?
Question do you charge for 2 caps being you had to use 2. Because you didn't have a 50/10
A 50 uF unit that reads 45 maybe isn't "great".....but it certainly is OK being within the allowable 10% variation allowed. I wouldn't call it " definately no good"....(3:00 - 3:07)
Hello Steve
Needs coil cleaning also
My home ruud has the same capacitor 10/50uf 350v - 370v
Mine has the same capacitor to just had to replace it the board and relay. Was going to call a professional but everyone wanted a emergency fee and said they most likely would not have all the parts. Amazon prime to the rescue.
So Ruud and Rheem are the same or just similar? I own a Rheem.
same different name
@@stevenlavimoniere Thank you...which name is older and did one buy out the other? I have a new Rheem hot water tank and it's working great.
Well done steve! Love it when install work around. Do you have to jump from main cap to fan cap? How do you do that?
@@kingpins9 thanks sir
Why not clean that coil while your there to give more value to the customer and help the old machine march on?
Ruud Rheem Reed rhuud
clean the coil,,maybe
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Great job Steve Hello to You and Miss Molly 🐶
It’s very Hot here 🥵 Take care👍🏻
Texas Lady
Dirty coils sure don't help.
Ac..look super dirty..
He had another 10 minutes worth of video there, cleaning the mess up LOL!
FYI, it’s pronounced “RUDE.”
Probably blew because that coil is terrible!
these rheems were designed so weird
You Yankees think it's hot when it 75-80 degrees. Try 107 yesterday in central Texas. Current temp... 105. RH 16%. it's cold front. LOL
Yea but we dont cry when it snows
@@Sam-pi6ch And we don't either because we hardly ever get it. LOL Current temp 107.
@@joecooksey4331 ..but when you do it cripples the entire state 😉
@@khx73 Totally true. Power grid by Stupid Corporation aka TX dumbass pols. And then ted escapes to cancun.
no salty roads for 6 months, vehicles last forever and don’t “cancer out”
Steve they be calling you back because they know you do good work! They be saying to themselves...let's call Steve, he didn't bend us over the last few times so we'll give him another go!!!
Hi Steve
