Top 5 AC Problems and How to Fix Them

Top 5 AC problems and how to fix them. I go over five of the most common air conditioner problems and explain what needs to be done to get them fixed. With each AC problem, I reference a few videos for that specific problem that will be helpful in getting it fixed. Whether your air conditioning is not working at all, barely working, not cooling, or half working, there is a good chance that that one of the things I cover in this video is the issue that your unit is having.

Saw your video and took a chance and ordered a $29 capacitor on amazon after my heat pump failed during 100 degree weather. It worked perfectly. Thanks so much. I avoided the big $800 repair bill. Thrilled

[tqylzbv]

I cannot tell you how this helped. I spent $48 on three items that went bad after a lightning storm. And this video, and it’s if, then, else approach, was priceless!! I get to call and cancel the appointment in the morning. You CAN do this!! Thank you you valuable gift giver! ✌🏻🎵❤️💨

LOL you must be public enemy number 1 to the heating and cooling companies . Thanks for helping the homeowner keep some of the cost of owning a home down your doing a great service wish there were more people out there that are willing to share their knowledge with others. God Bless

Why go to HVAC school when you can watch this guy's video's. They make more sense and a hellava lot cheaper.

[POW]

I watched all the videos of Master Jay...whenever there's an AC problem, I quickly diagnose and fix the issue...my wife asked me, "How do you know so much about AC?" because 15 years ago when I brought my first house...I didn't even know how to change an AC filter.

Best hvac channel in the industry.
PERIOD

[MohammadAli-sqnj]

Just getting into community college for HVAC & I can’t believe how much I’ve learned from your videos, your an amazing explainer and person. Wish you all the best and Thank you for spreading your knowledge🙏🏻

[TheKingofCambridge]

2:08 Awesome advice and instructions on how to diagnose a/c issue. I replaced the capacitor for $6.36 and voila! Blowing cold air again! Thank you!

[shouldipeeonmycampsite]

What you need to do is put together a package deal, sort of like dvd segments and sell them. 12 dvd sets in a professional package and I think you will make a million. Thanks for your instructions. As a Maintenance person, you have helped me save many hours of hardship and cost to the company with your tips and tricks. Thanks again. I hope those adds are making the money you deserve.

I did have a faulty capacitor! we are experiencing 106 degree days here, this saved me so much time and money.

[Bdyer]

Nothing like waking up to a scorching hot house. Thanks to this, i was able to easily diagnose my capacitor was bad. A trip to the hardware store and 10 minutes install, boom cold air again. Thank you so much!

Currently, I’m not working as A/C Tech but I’m HVAC certified. Well, I learn more here at YouTube channels than in my HVAC school. 😅

He is a genius. He teaches better than my coworkers.

[QuantumKatmusic]

This was excellent for helping me troubleshoot, im a low voltage electrician so I certainly am comfortable with figuring out my ac issues but didn't have a lot of experience in doing so, doesn't get much more clear than this guy's video. Thankyou man

[maryesposito]

Thanks for this knowledgeable video. I'm in Florida, it's hot. AC stopped working, and I had it fixed it less than 30 minutes. Tried to unclog the drain outside, but it still wouldn't turn on. Listened to the video, unclogged from inside, and it went right on. 🎉

[stacyblevins-hugg]

You are very good at explaining all the a/c issues. You explain everything and you show everything. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

[djpanduh]

You just saved me from 95F 85RH inside my house. I can’t thank you enough. You have the easiest to understand videos and mapped them out in a really genius way!

Only thing I would stress to other viewers is making sure A/C breaker is off in the panel, as well as the disconnect. Cut the main even, if you’re not sure which is what.

I thought I discharged the capacitor with the disconnect pulled, but shorted the common to the strap. It flipped the A/C breaker. So might’ve still been live, if I discharged it correctly. My house is old and the electrics box has been moved/replaced several times. So may not be wired normally.

The best troubleshooting videos I have found. Thank you for sharing.

Man you just don’t know how much you have helped me!!! Just started in August and I’m learning more and more everyday 🙏🏼
