    • @dennis-sj6im
      @dennis-sj6im Před 8 lety

    • @nicholasceea4109
      @nicholasceea4109 Před 8 lety +3

    My neighbors AC is making horrible, nasty noise!, there is a small white, round tube like object on top of the ac with two wires (black and white wires) that is connected to the compressor, is there any one here who can tell me what that could be?, this PS machine turns on like it has its own mind, like a sensor installed in it, whenever I go out on to my patio that shit starts running, nasty noise, it is a mix of several different noises coming out of one AC?... I wish I can post the pic here, but youtube does not allow pic or docs under a comment. If someone want to figure out what it is I can send the pic or video to you on your pvt comments...! thx
    so, the question is, can someone put a transmitter that act like a sensor that senses movement about 20-30 feet away from the AC, and the AC goes on or off by sensing movements?.. ....it is real folks, hope to get some inputs on this
