Or even telling them its going to be 2 charges for the diagnosis on the check engine light, if the codes aren't related. I always felt bad having to do that. I guess really, I still feel bad but at least I'm getting paid now lol. I think I felt worse after the job was done and I realized I just did free work when I shouldn't have.

Found 2 major leaks and two small ones in the AC system on my '00 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Dash out evaporator replacement was one of them. Hose by the oil fill degrated causing one of the major leaks. After fixing those, the coil on the clutch for the compressor shorted out! $40 used compressor time. I see around 43°F at the vents! *It's a beater with a heater* and *AC as a bonus!* *256,000+ miles on a 4.7L!*

Your A/C videos were part of what gave me confidence to fix my mom's 2016 Civic, which uses R1234yf. We took it to the dealer last summer and they recharged and leak checked it, found no leaks, and charged us $300. This year I found that the low side JRA valve was leaking, based on the dye they put in and by using soapy water to confirm. I replaced the valve and recharged the system for about $120.

You'll never go without them when you see the detail that you haven't been seeing. Mechanics have to see up close. I also use a head light, sometimes as well.

Craziest Jeep problem I ever had I kept on getting codes and saying crank positioning sensors and map sensors I replaced everything it turned out to be the ignition coil wire cost $2.38 when the wires were replaced they weren't put back in the little slots where they belong and it was laying too close to the block , overheated the jeep was bucking and snorting and I drove 110 miles to a man I knew that would not give up. He did not give up until 2:00 in the morning the last thing he checked was the coil wire and that's what it was I said so what do you want I'll pay you whatever you want he said $30 I was blown away. He was just a good friend and still is today.

Yeah, people always get suspicious when something fails either while it's in your hands, or while they're on their way home from your shop ... or even a week later. That would be a tough one there, especially if they're on a budget. Things like that happen to my own vehicles from time to time. I had bought a 2nd Volvo 940 to swap some better parts onto mine, and was going to sell it once I swapped what I needed ... but then I got cocky with my tree cutting skills, and decided I didn't need to move the car. Well, guess where the tree fell? So, I've got a 940 parts vehicle out back, LOL. Friggin tree landed right on the roof!! :D All my hoses and fittings are old school R12 units - no check valves in the hoses, and no shutoff valves on my quick-connects. I see the check valve makes things alot easier. I have a bunch of 30 pounders, so luckily I don't have to keep purging the line with multiple hookups. I did calibrate my 20 year old low side gauge the other day, after seeing you do that on yours a couple vids back. First time in 20 years I've had accuracy, lol! I didn't know it was that simple! I had to take my glass off, since there was no screwdriver hole in it. Not a big deal - it's threaded. Was quick and easy. Got all the same birds up here, lol. Caleb cracked me up with your face on the mourning dove at the end there! Bet he's happy to have cold air again. Just in time. We're in the 90's in MA! Speaking of that, I need to throw a shot of R12 in the Volvo. Thanks for the reminder! :)

Long ago. I had a Ford Fusion and I was getting a brake job done. During that time the master cylinder had crapped itself. My couple of hundreds of dollars for brakes was almost a $1000.00 at the end of the day. I was there when it happened so I knew that what they were saying was true. It’s hard because of the stigma that everything is a scam etc. The one thing I find that even with the internet, people don’t even research. I got a cheap scan tool back in 2011 for less then a bill and it helped a lot. Especially when it came to going to the mechanic and explaining things to them. My AC clutch went into a used car that I bought last year. Installing it was easy, it was the part that was expensive.
@ScannerDanner
@ScannerDanner 3 жыл бұрын
that can actually happen! The master cylinder (a high mileage one), when it is pushed to the floor (to bleed to brakes), can cause the internal seal to tear because it travels beyond the internal wear marks and then it will bleed down after that. This is why it is recommended when you bleed brakes to not let it go all the way to the floor on a high mileage car. Put one foot underneath the pedal to prevent it from going fully to the floor. Make sense?

That is crazy that a coil would fail while repairing an AC issue. In part 1, the Jeep started when you checked to see if the compressor worked, and it did. But, here you started it again and the coil failed. How old were these coils? I can see how a customer would get upset after bringing the car to shop and now hear from the tech that the car won’t start and they have to pay more for another issue. Great content here.

Of course, the backup condenser is bad, of course you have to order another condenser and wait, then of course the truck fails to start, coil failure unrelated to A/C repair, and using pliers cause the tools can't be found, welcome to shade tree mechanic land!! HAHA. Working on my 2003 Escalade AC now, its been exactly the same kinda stuff. Small leaks, then electrical module issues, wiring diagram conundrums and etc. Bottom line, Paul your AC works, the truck runs and no laws were broken!

We checked your AC, you have a bad coil (or coil wire open). A day in the life of a professional. We had a Nissan Versa the other day, he declined the brake work, came to pick it up and the blower motor didn’t work. He was pissed at us. Plus it’s under the windshield on top of the HVAC case. A tap with a long screwdriver, he was on his way, accusing us of sabotage, rofl.

Don't let your high side psi get too high lol Never was good at adding refrigerant based on pressures though I have done it. Too many variables to teach that method

Also, to add to your warning. "Never ever ever charge to the high side," that is because you could have the can blow up in your face. No joke. Look at the bottom of the can, see that "smiley face mouth?" That is a safety factor. Blow out the bottom of the can instead of the whole thing. Some of the older cans had a rubber blowout Disc.

Thank you for another great video. To change refrigerant cans, couldn't you simply close the valve on the can, unscrew the can and screw on a new can without fooling with the hoses ?

A txv maintains constant superheat so you need to check temperature of the suction line leaving Evap to Diagnose low suction pressure.

First of all, you had a Jeep no start and the crank sensor was not the problem?!....wow lol. I was fully expecting no fire, no injector pulse. About dealing with a customer, I agree about the communication with a customer but I handle it differently. The customer would hear about this one when they came to pick the car up. It would be diagnosed and fixed without an extra charge but they would hear about it for sure. If there is some underlying conditions that potentially caused the failure, the recommendations would be made at that time and prices established. The “loss” you took due to unexpected failure would come back to you plus some. To be fair, A/C is some of the best book time in the business anyway. This is coming from a guy that works at a 12 man shop that usually has 120 cars on lot at a time with a 6 week wait time. Been there for the last 22 years and this would be how we handle it. I think it has to do a lot with building trust with customers. They don’t have to wonder if you’re pulling a fast one on them. A customer in this situation where you made an unexpected repair without an unexpected charge to them always leads to referrals (and sometimes lunch, donuts or cakes). Just my two cent, as usual I enjoy the videos. Always something to learn and you’re a good guy to learn from

That checkvalve in the yellow hose would let air in too your gauges. Think about the flow as it's higher pressure in the atmosphere than your hose when you have vacuumed it.

Bucket of warm (not hot) water is really old skool. The key is not to have water hotter than you can stand when putting your hand into it. I witnessed a technician,back in the 1970s, blow a can of R12 apart by using water at full temp from the tap.
@ScannerDanner
@ScannerDanner 3 жыл бұрын
the other key is to have the can open and relieving pressure while doing it, then temp of the water doesn't matter. There is no reason to put the can in hot water when it is closed off and cannot relieve psi right?

Great video. That low side pressure didn't seem right -- I'm wondering if that gauge is N/G (no good). I know you adjusted it, but maybe it's junk. I have a cheap set of gauges, so just for the heck of it I screwed the hoses (one at a time) on to my car tire with a known 35psi just to see if the cheap gauges would agree or be way off.
@ScannerDanner
@ScannerDanner 3 жыл бұрын
I believe it was a combination of things with one being now very hot ambient Temps and two being the gauge is questionable at best. My RV low side was a little low too when we were done

I don't think that little bit of air is a big issue IMO. Now since you didn't replace the drier it might be since your are letting in potential water vapor from the atmosphere and the one you have is fully saturated. However probably not a big deal with the circumstances in your particular case.
