Can you use the Wera Hex Plus L Key Set in HVAC? Well I asked myself that same question. I bought these in February 2024 and I have been using them now for about 5 months.

Circuit 2 Compressor Keeps Tripping on a Trane Self-Contained Intellipak EP154
I think M1 is Common and M6 +24V. Well as long as you have them wired correctly at the zone board side. You can check which wire is common and +24V using a voltmeter by checking first both wires at the meter and then one with the meter and one to the ground.
I stopped watching at 13:45 when you put the torch on the pressurized container. OMFG! I have no words.
Dang, people still work with R22? I would've just sold a new system esp putting in old refrigerant.
Thanks
You saved me a ton of hassle with this - thank you!!!
cool mode short cycle timer how to fix Goodman unit
I work with these a bit. So i learned something !!!👍
Thanks for the review. Im glad i watched this cuz im trying to reduce the weight in my bag so im glad i didnt order these.
Use them all the time. Strong and durable
Thank you
We have 2 zones and around midnight, one side of the house continues to cool while the other side of the house stops cooling. Is there a reason one damper would close in the middle of the night while the other remains open?
The thermostat in that zone may have a program that causes this to occur.
@@NighthawkHVAC I am assuming it is because the damper closed but I am not certain. Last night I tried turning off the zone 2 that continued to cool to see if it would affect the other side but it didn't. The same side stayed warm (zone 1) and the air continued to come out forcefully on Zone 2 even though the thermostat was turned off.
Then you may have a faulty damper actuator motor
Thanks for video btw horrible technician
Your that guy
Piston is stuck reverse it a few times to try to break it free
Interesting, but wish you had recorded the "before" sound.
Clean those coils sheesh
I wish you came out with more videos 😢
I love that service checker... Once you learn how to use it well, it will be your biggest tool in Daikin service work.
Does it work with the A2l ?
Yes
Is there an indicator on the shaft part of the damper assembly that tells u if it’s open or close b4 u put the new one on? Like the shaft of a blower motor has a smooth side… is it like thay
Nope. You just have to wing it. Sometimes I’ll just drill a hole in the damper assembly so I can see if it open or closed. Then I draw a line on the end of the shaft. If you’re lucky someone else marked it for you.
I’ve thought about pulling the trigger on these
so your telling me your operating the heat in medium speed? wont that overheat the system?
Gas fired furnaces are factory set to low speed so medium is more than enough.
@@NighthawkHVAC awesome! Thanks for clarifying
Those are 💩 💩 💩
What model fieldpiece meter is that?
It’s a SC680
How do you confirm whether it’s failed from outdoor board or indoor board?
A waste of time you may have got the faulty compressor going but there is a good chance that it may burn out then you have a burn out too deal with just my thoughts
Thank you for the video! I always enjoy your content. I'm especially grateful for any kind of mini split or inverter videos, I'm embarrassed to admit that those systems still confuse me sometimes.
Seems those pumps fail often. Thanks for the video!!
You're a horrible technician.
How often do you need to replace?
"this unit does not have pressure switches" pulls camera away to reveal pressure switch lmao In fairness I'm sure it's a fan cycle switch
I would use my thermal imaging camera, but yeah according to the readings i think it's leaking internally, is there a full video on this ?
my wednesday 12 ton coil change out was a 118 degree on the roof. my co-worker was suffering bad. he drinks soda, eats fast food, smokes weed and vapes. I was just fine, I don't drink soda, eat fast, or smoke. I barely broke a sweat. I used to have a hardtime with the heat unit I got my thyriod taken care of and changed my diet. I eat alot of eggs and meat. drinking just water. it changed my life. I don't get the hunger pains anymore and the 12 hour days are no issue.
waiting on your videos explaining it champ
Those magnet umbrellas are life savers
Worth every dollar!
Probably a dirty Water Condenser loop or inlet strainer.
I have a strange one for you. My apartments AC unit has the normal drain line that leads outside, however under the handler there is a PVC that goes down, the connects sideways into a inch high pipe that has a black wire coming out of it, the drain leading outside is not stopped up yet that little pipe with the wire is dripping....wtf is it and what do I do to stop it?
Don’t call it atomizing you nerd
where is the connect button to connect to the thermostat???
You need a wireless adapter to hook up the wireless stats
hey man how did you do ? did you pay out u pocket for the second PCB?
Nope. Was covered under warranty.
Great fix
Plz
You did. I went back a few episodes and watched it. 🤙🏻
Maybe use the studs from the old motor.
Change out that mixing valve
Don’t think it’s good to teach on a residential unit in a commercial application building will always be in a negative no outside air causes billions in energy costs
I have one building at work that pulls water from the Detroit River. Fking zebra mussels get into the system and kills the water flow. I am slowly replacing those systems with mini-splits. Also their are no temp and pressure gauges, whoever installed those units were hacks.
That’s crazy.
Why not use a thermal imaging camera to see what's going on?
I don’t own one.
Nice work Nighthawk.
What will a loose belt cause the unit to do?
It can cause the belt to wear out faster and/or break. It can also wear out the pulleys.
