[@k-9lover5349]

[@k-9lover5349]

Ty.. the same thing happened to ours.. 👍

[@jmoriarty8000]

Mine just randomly turned off and the plug looks almost like yours except only one of the parts that goes into the wall socket was black. I was using an extension chord so now I need to buy a new chord and a power bar

[@Belneons]

Asking about the video how to taken off the panel or cover just click on top of this. Showing take the cover off I apologized the viewer also the video I make it shortcut. Just watch the video how to taken out a cover and cleaning the dust. Also this video is very easy to replacement power cord.

You unscrew it.

[@resilient4637]

I've been told moisture buildup inside the wire tripping the power cord

[@mzberry9765]

Was the unit turning on before you changed the wire?

[@artfquinn]

You have to turn off AC and pull the cord off outlet before you proceed to disassemble any appliance.

@@artfquinn WAS THE PROBLEM THE UNIT NOT TURNING ON?

[@anthonybitseedy8612]

What caused the electrical cord to short out my guess is not a heavy enough extension cord

[@julianbarriga8513]

That why were all here 😔

[@fiateleteo8285]

The power cord short-circuits due to high voltage during bad weather or the power outlet is giving out too much power and because the wiring of the house wasn’t properly handled. It’s either you fix the wiring or you buy those surge protective extension cord

[@Belneons]

Do not used power cords many cable so that cause shortage power only directly to the wall outlet recommended if you want to keep running the unit.

[@jmoriarty8000]

@@BelneonsIt says you can use a power bar

[@Belneons]

Nope.

I need to replace power cord for my portable AC. I saw both LCDI and GFCI plugs having similar Reset and Test buttons at Amazon. Can I buy the cheaper GFCI plug for my application? Thanks

[@jessiereidl2474]

old reply but don't make that mistake, lcdi has a fourth wire, i needs to be this cord. the cheap gfci outlet replacement wont be safe

[@artfquinn]

@@jessiereidl2474 Thanks. I ended up using the same brand power cord. I am able to find the exact part number from that AC brand site.

[@jackietalbert9640]

Ok, so I got the damn thing apart, but am lost at this point. I have a toshiba ac portable unit RAC PD1213 and it does not look the same inside. I tried looking for a video on changing the plug on my model and no luck so far. Anyone have any ideas?

[@808buddha8]

what size BTU is this? You used 15 amp 120 v Power cord

[@Belneons]

This is 7,000 BTU’s and 15 AMP, 120 VOLT, 1800 WATTS

[@808buddha8]

@@Belneons thank you I have a 10,000 BTU 7,000 DOE but it uses 11.5 Amps I was wondering if 13Amps 120 V Power Cord would be ok to use. I dont have the plug on me to check which size I need at the moment. thank you for your video

[@artfquinn]

@@808buddha8 Yours only use 11.5 amps, so 13 amps power cord can be used.

[@sheenalee656]

How is the cord now? Any problems?

[@Belneons]

Nothing Still Running Excellent

[@Hannelore7]

Sorry one more queation. Does the cord have to be the brand for my Machine? Or just as long as I have the numbers correct and the letters?

[@technically_paradoxical]

I think so! Im about to try it today!

@@technically_paradoxical Oh wait..which ? are you answering..lol of mine.

[@technically_paradoxical]

@@Hannelore7 yeah rereading my comment I wasnt being precise! I meant to say that i bought an amazon brand but it has the same specs as the burnt one. Mine burnt because of the surge protector not being up to standards lmao

[@technically_paradoxical]

Did buy an extension cord but its the same specs as well, only because i barely have any ports in my room, and they are FAR apart

[@valenciabuck8672]

Where you ordered the power cord from

[@Belneons]

Amazon store

[@joebanville6951]

My dog just ate the cord so now I have to replace mine.
