How to Fix Your Air Conditioning Condenser | Motor Replacement DIY & Wiring Tutorial | Diagnose

This has full CUSTOM DIAGRAMS for all components (CONTACTOR, COMPRESSOR, FAN MOTOR, DUAL CAPACITOR OR MULTI CAPACITOR). This contains tips and tricks to other condenser parts that can be diagnosed and fixed. This is very good for beginners to learn from. Follow along with me as I sort out the issues and find the solutions. If you're in a rush and experienced, I have also broken it down into steps for you to skip to. However, there are various tips in between.
