 All right, so she okayed us to go ahead and remove the Filter dryer put a tee in there We're gonna pop this coil up fix that leak there on the TXV and then recharge it back to spec See where we're at see where our pressures are at and then kind of go from there Told her there's a chance, you know the compressor could be failing don't know yet So let's go ahead and tear into and get these things done All right, so we've got a trostling unit here. It's running 34 They said it's been getting well. They thought it was getting warm, but it's been a defrost a lot I'm kind of confused because they said it goes low on refrigerant Usually every year to they have to add some to it and it's running obviously at temperature It was just in defrost. He said it seems like it goes in defrost a lot So we're gonna kind of investigate into it and see what we have going on So you got a defrost control there Yet you've got one here I wonder if this isn't even doing anything Wonder if this is doing all the work very possible To open the door and temperature obviously rise up. We heard a click. It's either Thermostat or Or something I'm not sure if it's a thermal overload because the condenser can't still run One easy way to find out whether or not this is It's actually controlled Usually controls it That shut the condenser off now sure sound like the compressor Tripped out and it was not running so I went off on thermal overload Just going in 60 minutes quite a long time Determination Pretty sure thermostats just inside the cooler here. All right, so it clicked it came back on let's see if This thing shuts off. Ouch. Good God. That's nice and hot See this thing shuts off When we turn it up warmer that way we can see whether or not it was actually thermostat All right, so the compressor shut off like it should have and the fan shut off so That tells me that it went off on thermal overload And it's not very cold. It's definitely kind of hot here on top. I don't really want to leave my hand on there So it's gone off on thermal overload This is a 134a system as cold as that line is I wonder if it ain't overcharged by chance. I don't know somebody's dinked with it Kind of hard to say right now Don't see any Liquid line taps to see what the discharge pressure is which would help us to know whether or not It's got some issues with head pressure and see we've got pretty good Light coming through so it looks to me like our condenser coils probably clean. I've got our screws out of there It's all right. There's probably your leaks that See where it's all dark Right there's your water droplets right there's your leak. It's a wonder I'll just fix it You see if we're getting ice through this evaporator that prayer looks pretty good Okay, so end up doing is just stretching us across make a little slit in that Lay it down there You go talk to him and find out what's going on with this thing. I'm gonna scan that real quick Make sure that's where the leaks are. Detect three out here and see if My eyes are finding the leak where we think it's at Should be right here Okay, so the only place I'm seeing it is right there on that Which could be very easily fixed Just pop it up out of there and raise it shut There's no filter or no receiver on this thing. There's no way to pump it down to fix it It's shutting off for some reason. Let's see what she wants to do if she wants me tearing to it I don't like this when you got Unrelated issues. I mean you've got a problem there. It's been an ongoing problem. It needs fixed All right, so she okayed us to go ahead and remove the Filter dryer put a T in there. We're gonna put a T right here cut it in brace it in We're gonna pop this coil up fix that Leak there on the TXV and then recharge it back to spec see where we're at See where our pressures are at and then kind of go from there till there's a chance, you know The compressor could be failing don't know yet. So let's go ahead and tear into and get these things done let's go ahead and get this Coil fixed while we got things going on here. We'll pull this thermostatic bolt out of the way Get right to that and fix that Don't be that bad When you set it where you can get to it So you can see right there's where it's leaking at Let's clean that up with a drill And uh, we'll re-braze that that TXV looks kind of ratty too bulb Pretty nice if that was insulated Yeah, whoever braze that had no idea how to breeze I end up doing the swedging my Quarter inch line there. We're going to use the o 52 53. What does this thing o 52 cap TT dryer? Hey, then we're not using it for cap tube. It's got good filtering in it It gives me my ports. I figured it's gonna be a little easier than screwing out with the T's Go ahead and purge some nitrogen through this thing And uh, get it prepped up and ready to go There we go You can hear it on both ports here What we're gonna do is we're gonna add a little extra here This area right here That way we strengthen that wall up that we kind of got a little warm or stretched When we did the Swedge on that So we're just gonna put a little bit across that To kind of scraping it up a little bit. You have to do here is just heat it up Let it suck into the valve like it should have been sucked into it again with It should be good to go Or did this thing clean it up very good. That's the problem Can't clean up very good That's why you take the time to prep your work Coil you can tell it gotten really hot hell. It's probably leaking too But who knows this probably was a waste of time, but I'm just trying to do the job right So I'm gonna heat this up first then we'll heat this up and try to slide them together and see if we can get it to take That piece there on that Valve is starting to bother me quite a bit. Let's go ahead and clean this piece of crap off here There we go There we go There we go There got the big goober off there All right, so we're starting to get it Pumped up gonna do a pressure test here I basically spray it down for leaks Make sure that my solder joints hold Should not see nothing there Nothing there And nothing there from what I can see So we got that back into place Get that down in there All right, hopefully that'll work a little bit better than what it was doing Probably short cycling that actually is what was probably going on that cold air hit it Because uh, you know except for 35 ish area and that air's got to be 10 to 15 degrees colder than what you want The coil to be if you ever hope to achieve it All right, so we made the defrost clock 45 minutes space it out evenly because the clock's going to lose time eventually About the only thing I'm gonna cut corners on today is I'm not going to pull Backing through my big monster hoses if you want to call it pulling or cutting corners Half time you're lucky people even do it any other way than this here anyhow. Hey, we're not quite there yet We just plugged it in a little shy I want to see where we're at far as head pressure Suction pressure see if we're close If we're going to go into negative if we're going to Have sky high head pressure or what which the head pressure is already pretty high TXV could have been screwed with who knows So I walk away for a little bit and the condenser is still running, but the compressor shut off Super heat and such was uh in the 20 high low 20s Um, we're not quite fully charged the maximum capacity So unless that TXV is starving the compressor of a little bit of cooling, which I doubt We probably have an inefficient compressor So we're going to check amp draw and see where we're at on that It's a copeland compressor so we can check and see where we're at on the amperage compared to the spec sheet All right, according to the copeland app 10.1 would be the max we're pulling 7.2 You know according to this right here 10.1 maximum compressor amps. We're not pulling it, but yet it's tripping Makes me really wonder about it We're that's also including the amperage of the fan right there because to get it separated Just in a whole hell of a lot of room right there Um Needed a quick easy way to find out so we're gonna watch this for a little bit see if she peaks up All right, we're running 130 degrees on the top so it's not horrible So it might just be a matter of the uh thermal overloads getting weak on it, which I've never seen before That's a lot cheaper than a compressor, but Uh, we'll give them an option for both let them dig their own decision. All right, so just talk to the customer. There's the maximum hold 7 and 7.1 So we're going to order new start components. Um, it's just basically cycling off The box is getting the temperature, which is what they said originally is that you know, it is getting temperature Um, so I mean I would be very leery about putting too much money worth the food into it But that might be our problem. I'm not 100 certain, but I mean according to what I'm reading on copeland's app Um, you know That's about the best thing we can do first without jumping into big money. So we're gonna order this component Uh, you know, like I said, we've seen all these things in the beginning, which is great So I kept communicating with the customer let them know make them make the decisions that way You know, everything is in their ballpark and you've done what they want to done and uh, that way, you know Everyone's uh informed what's going on. So The best way to measure that is to do it at the compressor But like I said, I know that uh fan motor pulls about an amp amp and a half So I uh, I'm well below three days later. All right. So it looks like it's sweating It's cold in here to me. That's a good thing. So it's at least been holding temperature while we were getting our part There's the relay Capacitor mighty overload, hopefully Protector and clamp kit wonderful Uh light bulbs up here don't really do us a lot of good do that. That's a Great way to get something broke A little less dangerous Got found a way to make this a little easier We're just gonna loosen those up pull that thing out of there None of this is the same This is frustrating because according to the app these parts don't even match up I don't know if united screwed me or what but the mounting for this It's completely different than this I checked to uh with united Your computer says it's the right ones. I said, what about the copeland app? So he checked some other brochure or something So he did find another um Protector so they're gonna send that out. I'm gonna go ahead and wire up the new relay and stuff and the capacitor Get that on there for now and then We'll go ahead and come back unfortunately for the other part. So Is what she is how much you can do about it. So we'll just change these connectors so that we can Get mounted on that relay the protector. I mean, it's not a whole lot I can do on that looks like OEM the Resistor I'm gonna go ahead and solder that on Go ahead and stick these two prongs in there like that All right, so we got that soldered into place good old Milwaukee soldering iron See this thing or run. I can't really leave it like this, but At least make sure it doesn't trip out on thermal overload, huh? You can see it's kind of tight spot back here Should trip out here real soon if it's going to trip out We're pulling 6.8 amps, which is well below the threshold So we're at 37 degrees Still running just fine I'm gonna go ahead and wrap this thing up and Get a tape back up put back in the box there We'll come back. Hopefully tomorrow or monday and we'll swamp that out Right now. I'm just gonna mount it inside the plastic box. So it's protected and we don't have any shorts The whole point on this one here was do we put in the compressor? Do we think it's the protector and it was the protector we found that out by Looking at the Copeland app and seeing what the continuous front amps are and what the maximum constant The mcca maximum continuous current is and they're well below it. There was no reason for it to be tripping So like I said, these are the original start components. They replaced them all And we're good to go. Well, they just shut off. They just reached temperature Now this control like I mentioned is not being used but shut off at 37 And we're just using an old fashioned analogue control back here with a regular old analogue defrost clock All right, let's find out what's inside here as far as The condition it's in So all that is the bimetal Right there And that little thing opens up and you can see it's kind of arched Not in the best of shapes But that's uh That's all there is inside there guys if you're curious That metal gets hot Opens up just bends backwards There's not much to it, but you can see that the Overloads arch so many times from opening and closing that uh That definitely was a problem. So that's what's inside there 48 hours later. All right So we're back again this time. We've got the corrected overload which mounts right on there Still don't think any of this stuff here works, but this will at least hold it in place So it looks like we're holding temperature pretty good in there at about 37 And it's obviously shutting off the way it should So we'll get that thing in there and then that's going to wrap this one up So if you guys like the video if you would hit the like button subscribe Check out instagram and facebook and until next time guys.
