Ep.#13 - Carrier Reefer Door Override
Vložit
- čas přidán 25. 08. 2024
- The new Carrier 7500 trailer refrigeration units now come with an automatic 'off' switch mounted on the back doors so when you open them, the reefer unit shuts off.
You can override that switch without having to unplug or disconnect anything. Most companies do not know how to do this so they can't share the info with you.
Here's how you override that door switch so you can run the reefer while the doors are open! Enjoy!
4 years later and this video still saving lives. Thanks man! (Works on 2020 models btw)
Yes sir it is. I called RA to do the override. Lol He said he couldn't do it. Ok whatever I've had it done b4 by RA. So I text back saying the shipper wants it running at -10. While trying to find something on CZcams for the override function I come across this videos. Ok so I'm about to do the instructions this guy gives and all of sudden the reefer turns on. RA turned it back on. So why lie about. I override the system anyways.
@@trell0123 yeah I called RA also. They've done it before, but the 3rd shift crew, they're all a bunch of passive aggressive assholes, and they sat there and argued with me. Sitting in Florida with a -10 load. I asked him, what if this food gets rejected because it warms up, and he said that's what claims is for.......... Needless to say I was fuming, that is until I found this video. Like I said 4 years later and still saving lives.
9years now!! I just used it. 😂
PRIIIME!!! YOU ARE A LIFE SAVER! 😭 Simple and straight to the point.
Brother you literally just saved my sanity. I'm at a shipper with a brand new trailer and couldn't get past that alarm. THANK YOU
You're welcome. Glad the video helped!
I can't tell you how happy I was to see that 160xxx trailer sitting there since I have one behind my tractor...thanks, Mark. Interstate Warehouse is taking its time and I have a -10 degree load.
You’re the man, thank you - fellow prime driver
Wilson driver, appreciate the help
You just saved my life. 60 mins road assist still hasnt gotten bask to me. Thank you
7 years later and it worked on a 23 trailer you’re the man🙌🏽
Also doors don't have to be shut like advised in another comment. I just bypassed with the doors open and backed up to dock at shipper.
Thanks again Mark.
Good video. Quick to the point with no BS.
This saved me today. Thank you. You think Prime would set the trailer door open override. Otherwise, your unit will not pre-cool to the -10 requirement for them to begin to load you
Thanks Mark you just saved me a ton of aggravation. Americold is happy now too!
Americold is NEVER happy.
Yogurt is never happy
Thanks brother, just got a carrier 7500 x4 today its new to me but used. Opened the doors and poof the unit shut down.... found your video and followed it step by step and it worked.... kudos brother
Saw this video a year ago…..it happens on occasion but it has happened multiple times over the last year, so I always come back to find it. Thank you. 😁
E: Man now Prime is using Thermo King and it’s a pain in the ass to even access!):
july 2023 after 8 long years your video save me salute hats off sir🙏🏼
Had this issue a few times now and didn't know what to do about it. You came through my man. Cudos
8 years later and still saving loads
Very helpful , I just bought a trailer from Prime , and I didn’t know what to do to keep running , thanks for video , safe in the road ! 2021
I know this is an older video. I just watched it today really help me out a lot thank you
Warning; leaving the unit running while opening the doors sucks in outside air across your box and into the evaporator freezing it up. This is very hard on the $30k refrigeration unit It should never be running while the doors are open... period.
Thank you.
This is the 3rd this video helps me to trouble shoot this reefer.
Thank you sir, you showed me something that helps a lot, now Americold isn't sending me away.
First of all the door switches have been around long before the x4 series. Second it's an added option to the install, who ever bought the unit wanted it there. Third, you not being loaded on a cold dock so the reason the unit is set to shut off is because it will freeze up. Only time you need to disable or override the door switch is when the door are closed but your still getting the code..

Thanks for the info I've had to do it a few times when the door sensors went bad but it's been a while and I forgot what button after the two outer keys where pressed, glad I found your video and didn't have to message prime
You're welcome. Thanks for watching.
Leonard Spencer this f****** s*** just happened to me

Thank you sir! You just saved me a ton of hassle.
Take u mark... I might be going to refer soon dry van getting lil dry
You totally saved my bacon...load that is, great video!!
Thank u for this info, very helpful.
This was awesome thanks.
THANK YOU!!!!!!
Nice work fellow reefer tech brethren
Gotta Stay COOL MAN
I watch your videos
This happens on my 2012 carrier 2100A.
my dad is a truck driver and he once drove for Crete and I seen a Crete trailer
This works for if your unit is on continuous lock as well.
Hi sir, when you start press menu twice,,, after that we need to press language button?????? Thanks and appreciate for your servecies
Hi can i access by the same process the status light setting ?
I’m having a problem when the reefer off because of any alarm the lights stays green never comes yellow i have heard there’s a setting for that but I have to access settings on the reefer
Thanks
Worked like a charm!!!!
please show us how to override the new s-700
Life saver
Thanks for the help sir
💯 thanks
My savior. Thanks Mark
Very helpful thank you sir
will this work on a UK Carrier 1950? - thanks andy
Thanks Mark. It really helped.
Thanks for the info. The ability to change settings seems to be locked out once I get into the menu. Any idea how to open it up? There is an asterisk in front of the options inside the override menu, and the settings won't change. Thanks again.
Same issue here.
Thanks sir you really helped me out
In cycling mode If I set on 28°, temperature falls to 26°, rises to 29°, shuts off, goes to 32.5° engine, restarts and comes down again to 26°
But, I want exactly to shut off at 28° and restart at 32°, not low, not over
Vector 1550 can an door override be done?
My refer runs continuously even when I have it set to start/stop. Once it gets down to the set temp, the heater kicks in for some reason and brings it up, and then the cool kicks on when it gets too warm.
It needs a shop visit. Sounds like there is a temp sensor or programming issue.
Sooo how do you turn off the ones that won't turn off🤔
Is this for the unit to stay on with doors open or to turn off with doors open? please help!!
Thanks so much that help me a lot right now 👏👏👏👏
Thanks man. I just learn something new.
Is carrier better or thermo king ?
@@multiomer1997 mine is carrier. Idk who is better.
@@6gredlite907 i have a Thermo King. But i think its just the same. Maybe one is more expensive. Here in my country most small companies uses Thermo. And the largest uses a Carrier.
You just saved our butts.
I seem to have just had this issue on a 7300 x4. Procedure didn't produce a function key. I tried the inspection key and the display said Something about temperature control (hard to read in the sun). I pressed the left button, the screen returned to normal, the light went back to green and the reefer restarted. Is thus the procedure on a 7300 or did I just get lucky and fix it by accident?
You the man!
I wanna get in TECH MODE but I can’t, what caí I do ?
you are amazing!!!!! great vodeo and so helpful!!
Thank you sir you are a life saver
You're welcome.
Thanks a bunch Mark!
+Marcus French ... You're welcome. Feel free to share this video around on your social media outlets.
One thing Mark forgot to mention is that your doors have to be shut during this process in order for unit to reset itself. At least that's been my experience with Prime trailers.
you can program it with the doors open I'm a prime driver 7500 or nothing their program with the doors open or closed so what would be the purpose if the doors are closed think about it
No they don't. The entire process is done while ur at a dock with the doors open. In fact Mark's video is one way to do it. There's a slightly different way also.
Just used on another load I did great video
Thank you very much you safe my day
Thanks a million!
Good video.
If your Carrier Unit is "locked" on Start/Stop, is there away to open it to Continuous??
Yes
How please
My reefer never turned off while the door was open
Thank you brother..
Thanks brother
How do you put it in Continuous when it’s on Start and stop lock
Easiest way is to switch it to "Fuel Hog", set your temp, then switch to continuous. Once loaded and you pull off the door and the doors are closed, then switch it back to the normal intelliset you need.
Just use the fuel hog or produce sensitive settings which run in continuous mode.
thanks mark!
You're welcome Amanda
Can you help with error code A00017
When you try it the first time and skeptical 🤨 then🤬. Watch the video the second time 😁
Thank you for this, Mark! RA are being a bunch of assholes and won't override it for me. This video just saved me a lot of time!
Bro I want to ask that what is its minimum degree celsius cooling level?
As for as I know.... (-22F) on the "Ice Cream" setting.
@@MarkStaite thanks for the reply
Thanks Sir’ u save my day
#petivoyager
Why would any refrigerated carrier leave this setting the way it is... Bunch of bean counters missing the bigger picture
Not to bright are you?
I want to joint your company I know thermoking and carrier 150,250 modle I am stil working in saudi arabia can you send me visa
Drivers who don’t pay for fuel don’t mind this at all😝😝😝
2:30 the tech menu code ....
hey Mark are you a big RUSH ( rock band ) fan
Not "big"... but enjoy listening from time to time. Thanks for watching.
Video could be about two minutes shorter.
You're just hurting prime , you you should not be running the reefer unit with doors open on the dock !
cool video right! let your own equipment running for free put the hours on your $70,000 reefer burn diesel . just to make them happy . .... till lazy Johnny or Tyrone or Jose start doing their job.... u ppl funny just ucking funny
Thank you very much, this is awesome video, my unit shutt off today and I watch this video and I fixed , thank you help full
Don’t drop the soap.
door switch always fail,not a good thing to have....save fuel? ahah no way
and the video that youre showing is only with the carrier ''apex'' system....let's try this with the ''advance'' or the ''summit''
The door switch isn't about saving fuel It's about saving the box temperature.
Swinging those doors open sucks in 3000 CFM of outside air and that slams the evaporator trying to keep the unit cool.
You should shut the reefer unit off before you ever open the doors.... The door switch is essentially a dummy switch for people that don't know that
