    People, do this the correct way. Spend 75 to 200 bucks on everything you need. The steps are very simple with the right equipment. Even that is much cheaper than replacing a cheap $600 refrigerator. This will never do the job right, and you may wind up with no refrigerator, or one that never works properly, which will shorten its lifespan even further. Remember, older refrigerators were made to last longer. If you have one in good shape, do it right. If yours is on its last leg, fine.

    A broken refrigerator is one of the worst problems you can have on the home, and knowing how to fix it quickly ,like explained on this video is very important. To get your refrigerator running again, before food starts going bad. I've seen people go grocery shopping and come home to find out their fridge isn't working. The explanation on this video is so important for every home owner to know. Techinicians are not always available right away! This can save the Day!

      @MundiTaurus Před 16 dny

      This will never save the day. There is no way to get this done before the food spoils, or gets too low of a temperature to take the risk of eating. Anyone worried about an emergency repair: Already have these things on hand, and a huge ice chest. When your food is on ice, do this as a temporary fix, then do it right... DIY... it's easy, and not very costly. If the refrigerator needs freon, it probably has a leak. If so, that has to be fixed first. NOTE: Proper tools are not expensive for this DYI. Older, more reliable refrigerators should be used as long as possible... unless you like wasting money (on a newer, lower quality refrigerator). It's also good to have a start capacitor on hand.

    • @dummiesdirectory
      @dummiesdirectory Před 16 dny

      First of all you have to identify the problem. The most common is your relay overload and a 3 in 1 is correct, having those handy is good. But make sure your fridge has just the two wire going to your relay. Some have more wires and without the proper electrical knowledge you can do more damage than good. Also, this fix is more proper for older units and anything that cost 800 or less. If you have one of these units and had it for over 6 years its worth the risk. You are due another anyway. Do not try this on a unit worth 2500 dollars, call a professional. When your compressor needs freon, the humming noise sounds different and your compressor will be very hot. This is how you can find out if it needs it. Never ad any freon without letting the compressor cool down by disconnecting the unit a few hours. This will kill your compressor.

    I just want to ad that this video was not intended for professionals. The author of this video intentions is to help the average person fix their own refrigerator. Professionals know what they are doing. It is not an entire explanation on how the refrigeration system works.. This is what we call a quick Simple DIY or you may call it. Dad's home repairs. I love the way , he is explaining every detail on how to get this done something I am not very good at. This can have your refrigeration working in no time, this will get it running for quite a while again. Keep in mind that once you have a leak in a refrigerator, it is the beginning of the end to that unit. It is either old, try to look, for green corrossion in the lines, these tipically have a leak.. You will find a leak spot right under them... So you would know where to fix.

      Hi David, I can’t accurately diagnose the problem without physically seeing it. However there can be a variety of problems that could be wrong with your fridge. The best thing to do is to have a professional check it out. I’ve seen people fix the odor with vinegar and other cleaning supplies, but better safe than sorry. Call a pro.

    • @dummiesdirectory
      @dummiesdirectory Před 27 dny

      Put a box of baking powder inside the fridge open up the top of it, and find a place for it inside. This will kill what ever odor there is. Normally this is done I been using this method for years. Replace the box once every 2 months. or 1 for best results.

    I really enjoyed your video. It was very informative. Don't let all of the CZcams trolls get to you with their ill-gotten comments. ♦️ This is exactly the way you should charge your system. ♦️ The bullet piercing valve is not a temporary service valve it is a permanent service valve. I do agree with one of the comments about unscrewing the puncture screw again. The reason I say that is because the cap you put back on has the service valve on it and it is designed not to leak. ♦️ As far as purging the system or evacuating this system before you added freon it would be a complete waste of time. If you have a small leak in your refrigerator what little air gets in it will leak out again anyway. ♦️ I have been adding freon to my wife's truck for the past 7 years and I have never evacuated the system, I have to add about 1 and 1/2 cans of freon every summer. ♦️ The only way you should evacuate or Purge your system is if you break open a line for some type of replacement or repair work. Otherwise there is no need to purge your system just because you are adding freon. ♦️ If it wasn't for CZcams videos like yours we would be left completely without any source of information with various results.

      LOL! "...trolls"... People that do things right and relay needed information are not trolls, they know better, I.E., are intelligent. The proper tools don't cost much. For instance, there are pawn shops. Even cheap new tools for this simple fix are not expensive. So, no, that is not exactly the way you should charge the system. Doing it right in the first place is never a waste of time. "If you have a small leak in your refrigerator what little air gets in it will leak out again anyway." Maybe. And, what else will definitely leak out? After 7 years of never fixing your wife's vehicle properly, you know the answer. :-p

    Yup sucked in all that air from the hoses and with such a small system that was a lot. This is why sometimes CZcams videos are the worst source of info. This is NOT how you charge your system also after you put the cap on the the bullet fitting you need to unscrew the puncture screw again to avoid restricting the flow. If your fridge is leaking and you recharge it, it is just going to leak all out again, you need to find and fix the leak or at least add a stop leak product. This was a waste of time, money and bad for the environment.

      It sounds like you have a leak. I’ve seen evaporators leak, but could also be from the condenser or compressor. You can spray soapy water to check for leaks. It would be best call a professional to come check it out for ya if the above doesn’t work.

      for a fridge that old, do not waste money! You will fix one leak then get another...its like having a rusted chevy from the 60s, You fix a rusted sppot, then you find 10 more...These are the type of repairs you want to skip and spoil your wife to a new fridge. Also, if you have a unit that has a control board, display board,electronic thermostat, you can recycle these to sell online. Control boards range from 140 to 380 dollars. This is money you can use towards a new fridge. Appliances are worth more in parts than the entire thing.

    The grey pipe is called poly butylene and is no longer used. As you pointed out there are crimp couplings that will transition from poly b to pex and once you have it into pex you cost of the 90’s and tees is much cheaper than. If you have a lot of poly b to replace buy yourself a crimp tool and do all your repairs with that as it will be cheaper and more reliable than shark bite. Shark bites are a great thing for a small job like this but don’t be re piping your house with them!

    The white wire is not a neutral wire, there are no neutral wires on a regular switch. This is a switch loop where the white wire is used as a hot (switch leg return to the light) wire. In older homes sometimes the metal box is grounded with wires attached to the outside back of the box. This can be verified with a multimeter and if it's grounded you'll get approximately 120v between the box and the hot wire.
