Thank you very much! Your video encouraged me to (finaly) put in order the servo of my 40+ years old PL-320. Same problem, same solution. Most of the instructions fit PL-320 at 100%! Some of my friends will also be grateful because I need PL-320 to digitalise some vinyl records of their youth. As PL-320 seems to be mechanicaly simpler than PL-7 (less buttons), I neglected your instructions to properly set the arm moving mechanism. So, right now, my PL-320 preforms the arm retract but does not switch off. In fact it does, but than it switches on again... So, I'll have to redo the exercise.

I'd like to know what is the LRA on your AC unit's label so we can have an idea of how much reduction the micro-air is providing.

very helpful. Thanks!

I installed on my Trane 3.5 ton unit using this video. It runs great on my 13K watt generator now.

Where did you order the parts it had been a pain

What is control panel part number??

I have the Trane XLi18 4TWX8 which looks very similar to yours. When I looked at the Trane electrical one-line it shows a variable speed fan, so the 240V is directly connected to the fan and then turned on by control wires. I am assuming yours is the same and doesn't cause a problem with switching on the fan first? I sent an email to Micro-Air and they said it shouldn't be an issue. But wanted to ask someone who might have installed it on the same type of CU.

Thank you so much!!

Very good video. Did you happen to check the amps on the Fan? I am curious to know what the fan amps are initially to allow deducting the fan amps from the Total amps prior to installing the Easy Start. That would provide the amps initially by the compressor to allow knowing what the Easy Start is doing with the compressor after installation. I am considering a similar installation for my Trane outdoor unit with Easy Start 368 Blue unit. Did you contact Trane and ask about using the Easy Start ? I want to know what they said if you did. Thanks for your video - now, what does Trane think of the Easy Start device???

Any issues with the Micro-Air EasyStart 368 Soft Starter (Model ASY-368-X72-BLUE) since posting the video? Really looking hard at the soft start for my 5 ton A/C. Great video thanks for posting.

actually, your before and after starting amps are better than you indicate. most ac's start at 80 to 100 amps, so your results are really pretty phenomenal. certainly, this amperage would be able to be started with a 50 amp generator no problem, even with the generator running other essential things on the circuit.

My Trane 5 ton went from above 80 at start to 29.9 after 5 learning runs. Running at 13 amps.

is there any expected reduction in the "running" amps?

I have this problem. I bought a new switch, installed it, and the problem didn't go away. I used a wand type AC voltage detector to test the switch, and it didn't register. Do you have any idea what the problem could be? Thanks.

I must have a bad motor? When my PL-5 came to me it rotated counter-clockwise and when it would run clockwise (it doesn’t move in that direction at all at the moment), it looked like about 120RPM. I followed your steps but no change. Start button doesn’t work either. If anyone has ever brought one with these symptoms back to life I’d love to hear how. Thank you in advance, and than you for posting your video!

Easy understand, thank you.

im out, to many words not enough wrench turnin................................

awesome video sir.. what is this app that you are using? pretty nifty

Muchas gracias por este video, una joya de KZbin, ahora podré reparar mi Pioneer PL4. Saludos desde Colombia.

Thank you for that video....... I have the same machine with the same problem now that I seen your video.... I fixed it my self... ... Thank You ..for helping...

Waste of time

I really need some help with my DiecTV Dish. I have the older SD Dish and not the HiDefinition. I want to install it on a taller pole, because for three years, I’ve been getting letters some DIRECTV claiming that the satellite dish I am using is going to be obsolete because they have a 17-year-old satellite that’s going out. They want to install it on my roof through my shingles and all and I don’t want to do that. One of the problems I’m having is with trees and possible location of where to install a pole. The only reason why I had DIRECTV primarily was for the NFL SundayTicket, however, as some may know if not all, DIRECTV has lost it contract with the NFL to sell the programming. Can anyone give me any advice on how they would install the newer wider style type of DIRECTV satellite dish, or would you just simply go with a company like spectrum or AT&T on a wired line? Thank you very much for any advice or input

I had forgotten where some of the menu items were. They change slightly sometimes. My parent's area lost their only DTV service person (rural UT) and my senior citizen parents take care of my 100+ yr old grandma. They only care about CNN, MSNBC, ESPN and, all the local stations. Now I need to figure out which transponders their channels are on and go take a look to see which model dish they have

What is the lenght of the belt?

Many videos say you just have to clean the igniter area but in my case a pre-igniter was indeed bad. Thanks

Hey thanks for this video. I just put my DA4ES back in service this weekend and was disappointed to find the left side surround channel was dead. :( I have the service manual and it looked like IC701, the power amp for the left side surround would be the culprit. After seeing how simple it is to remove the A-Class board in your video, I disassembled my entire setup and pulled the board. No obvious solder defects, even under a microscope, but I re-flowed all the joints anyway. Knowing that servicing that board would be a cinch pushed me over the top to just get it done, and it worked!

How do you like the cooktop? Are the knobs on the right awkward since you have to reach over the pans/pots that are hot?

You could have bought the SeaFlo model 42 or 55 that does a much better job internally and is a fraction of the price. I have the model 42, 51, 52 and 55.

in your recap - you do NOT remove the black wire - you removed the screw and put the easy start black wire onto that same terminal, and re-inserted the screw.

Thanks for the video - mods done and work good! Quite a tuner there. Any idea how to make the front window much brighter??

Am so jealous of these as I dont have th skills to repair mine. My STR-VA777ES just went into protection mode after keep giving pops sound during start up. So sad.. 😥😥

Thanks for the time you spent to make the video.

maybe could have did trade in before 901s were discontinued..for $560.00 two new 901 series VI Ver. 2

Just fixed mine today thanks to your video thank you so much you and one other guy really helped me posting these videos 👍👍👍

Have one of these to. It also takes it a couple of minutes for the display to fully come alive. Like the stereo though. Thanks for the video.

Thank you for your instructions Just cleaned my speed controls and set the speeds and working beautifully. Also learned how to balance the tone arm, thanks again.

Thanks for looking into it. Saves me some time trying to fix mine.

I hope you dont mind if I ask a question, I have a 5ton Carrie dual stage blower motor, did they say how to connect that by chance, Does your unit had dual stage motor?

Thank your for this video.

Hello what bolts do you loosen to dither the right side, as we cant see that angle of the video?

Wretched design.

Très bonne machine Teac...Tu peux peut-être m'aider, j'ai le canal droit qui ne fonctionne plus en enregistrement et quand je plaque un tournevis sur le rca droit à l'intérieur, je récupère un peu de son...Aurais-tu une idée ? Ca ne vient pas de la tête, elle est comme neuve.

Would adding this void the warranty if something happens to a brand new AC unit?

did u fix it?

oh hell no fuck directv fuck AT&T Give Me verizon anyday AT&T with directv It's fucking greedy don't you ever mention directv Can't wait till directv and AT&T goes out of business.

I know this is a couple years old, but many of the ORVs have puck lights instead of the fixture. In the 25RDS the slideout has the recliners and pantry with multiple puck lights overhead. I pulled the switch and there is no ground wire available, which makes it challenging to use a dimmer. I know your bedroom install covered that issue. With the dinette in the rear and the light switch in the panel with the awning/slideout switches, there is a ground that supports a dimmer switch. I wired to the output of the switch allowing the o/h lights to still be controlled by the switch, but with the dimmer on the output to adjust the brightness. A new hole was drilled in the panel to mount the dimmer switch and cover. Mike Layman

Hi, I have the same issue, can you tell us a good source for replacement belts, or the size of the belts?

This is the exact model I am looking for. Can you make a video walking us through the purchase process and what you recommend?

Thank you Jim!! Great DIY video!

Jim, I installed one of these and then found your channel. I wanted to point out to anyone thinking of installing this thermostat that there is a great benefit that might matter to you that is not really mentioned anywhere. This thermostat will let you run the furnace and AC FAN at the same time. This is great if you like the white noise from the AC Fan while sleeping and need heat.
