    Wow , man , fantastic tip with the magnets ! Learn Something new everyday in this field . Going to get some magnets and set up a 120 to 24 v transformer and use a spare reversing valve in the next meeting to show my guys this testing method . Thanks and subbed 👍🏼

    I have a new unit heat pump.
    Was working great .
    Now heat will not work.
    AC is great.
    When I swith to heat blows cool.
    Then when switching back to AC it blows cool about 65
    At install Temps
    Heat was 89-94
    AC WAS 43-45
    24v at all control wires.
    Compressor is good ?
    Tested compressor
    C-S-R value equals 1.0 -1.7- 2.7 total of both sides.
    So when I diagnosed why this is happen. After capacitor is good also.
    After all the diagnostic pull disconnect.
    In that time put every back together, AC WORKS PERFECTLY FINE.
    2 techs tell me my new heat pump 3 weeks old , compressor is bad, because the gauges equalized.
    I ask to checkout switching valve. ..I know with all the resurch on line bad sw valve will give you faulty reading like a compressor.
    TXV for cooling.
    The only thing I can think of is the installer didn't put the piston in condenser. 3/8 line.
    But if so why would the heat pump work great 2.5 weeks then nothing.
    That trick is awesome with the magnetics...
    Has a home owner and Handyman mechanically skilled background. I have to due this because the techs that come will not look at the sw valve.
    Do you have any suggestions
    Thank you .

      🤣 I have the same problem sitting up watching videos on nights when I should be going to bed. I believe Walter would be Washington AC and heating in Texas. I am in North Carolina.

      No. This guy use to work for Trane a while back. He has his own training business now where he does on-site classes for companies.
