Video was a huge help, thanks. My yellow wire was corroded and broke off the terminal on the compressor. I cleaned up the terminal, cut the corroded part off the wire, installed a new connector and the A/C works.

Old hvac student but never done ac until lately.. great video though! But sometimes is very hard to ge t to the compressor pins .
Went to check a not starting compressor the other day when, put a new dual cap, compressor would not start, when I checked for ohms one the lines was OL, didn’t check for ground.
All of these I checked form the wires coming from the compressor.
Made a mistake not taking the harness off compressor and checked each wire for continuity.
Keep these great videos coming.
Rafael from California will appreciate it.
Don’t be afraid to make mistakes but try to learn as much as possible from school or any source you can get hands on before going out there and misdiagnose a unit.

I just want to say that your video explanation was very easy to understand and the greatest for people who do not have knowledge in HVAC.I also looked at other videos and I thought my multimeter was defective the way they explained it. GREAT JOB KEEP UP YOUR GREAT WORK.!

Nice vid bro. I checked mine out exactly as described. Bad start cap. A trip to the amazon and done. Nice and cold with a new cap and compressor working like a champ.

[TheWpruden]

I like the video excellent!!!
However motors especially outdoor condenser fan motors when ohm out motor for short is good but STRESSING the windings with a megommeter is best.
Great video again.

Thank you, I found a loose connection at the compressor when the weather getting the heat up. Your troubleshooting video is really helpful.👌👏🙂👍

[dwaynes]

great video. I would recommend buying a new compressor wire connector for testing only. most spots are tight
