Shady setup , they wrong for allowing that operator to run daily on straight BBU!!.. Awesome troubleshooting my bro and also tech-support is A+!!

[@apackwestbound5946]

Much better video with the camera remotely mounted, it's much easier to watch without all the additional movement. Thank you.

[@jaygosch8705]

It would be interesting to see the follow-up if they paid you to rewire it correctly. I can't believe whoever installed the original gate just laid the control panel in the box like that! And even though the buried wire is low voltage, I'd be surprised if it didn't get damaged since it has no protection and runs across a parking lot.

Dude, this is a good video. You always learn something new in every job and like you said it’s never a bad idea to take on a task that you don’t know. It really opens up your thought process. Thumbs up man.

[@motif5775]

I look out for your videos like waiting on a new episode of my favorite tv show to air, lol. Good video, thank you!

[@unitedtradesmanacademy1894]

Wow, thanks!

[@vanmann8347]

Rube Goldberg must have installed that mess. That mess should be totally removed and done professionally.

[@realSamAndrew]

How did the batteries get charged? Solar? Without a charging source they can only go for a few days MAX. Something is not adding up.

[@pixj7338]

That’s what I wanted to say. My guess there is another power source to the box.

[@realSamAndrew]

@@pixj7338 well whatever it is, it's not the case that it was running solely on batteries for so many months. There are undisclosed details about this repair so the video is inconclusive.

[@WordBabyBuzz]

I was feeling bad about my gate opener. now I feel bad about my arms. LOL. thanks for the video very helpful.

[@dwaynes5983]

Great video. Because your in the box near building do some quick test like looking for shorts because no power from building. Disconnect wires test for short from box to gate then power to the building. A short would show up quickly.

[@iandrew6347]

Ya batteries on a gate operated system is only there for emergencies like a power supply failure I.e if there was a fire in the building so the emergency service’s can get in without wasting time by cutting the gate open . As you should I would go with option one by having permanent supply at gate control panel . Great video Sir watching from the U.K.

[@mamaswamma1234]

Gate opener(dc motor) actually utilizes battery for operation majority of the time from my understanding. Line voltage just keeps a constant charge on the battery.

[@realSamAndrew]

@@mamaswamma1234 not true. Maybe for some styles, but the ones I know have a DC inverter. The batteries are optional and only there for emergency backup.

[@TimboStang71]

​@Sam Andrew correct

[@gregfisher216]

Did you ever get power at the outlet ? A follow up video must be good ,if the company wanted you to rewire the gate opener.

[@Eddy63]

Good info ... Thx

[@vanmann8347]

What kind of hokie setup was that?🤔 Whoever installed the parts in the junction box was obviously an amateur at best. You certainly had your hands full with this mess.

[@jerrybrown6675]

That appears to be Mickey Mouse. Gate Control Company Taking shortcuts Nothing else They could have used a solar panel. If they couldn't get power there. I am a low voltage technician. Like yourself I'd like to do the right thing. And take care of my customers. I do it per code. I enjoy your videos. Also Tryout the new millwakee 12v pvc cutting Shares it cut up to 2" Pvc very nice and clean cuts

[@hartlife7795]

Do you have a part number for replacement board?

[@melvinamilligan1364]

I live in a mobile home and I am getting power to all my outlets and some of my outlets are not working as well as the light will not turn on with the switch and I have switched out the plugs and. Switches what could be wrong?

[@johnkulpowich5260]

No service switch. On the control box. ?

[@harleydavidson2538]

Why did it take you so long to see that power came from the receptacle???

[@symtex36]

Who ever got the ok to install all that. Did a crap job.... Good video though.
