    Excellent diagnosis explained

  • @Richard-zz2cb

    good content as always Mike! Reset the breaker multiple times if you want a big fireworks show 😂

  • @user-le1qy3gz2v

    Textbook electrical troubleshooting, Nice job Mike , replacing just the compressor would be foolish but that's a customer choice , you can only advise

  • @spaceboy7192

    Bristol compressor and a micro channel coil....best of both worlds.

  • @bobnewyorkusa3642

    If the system is old, replace everything if the client will go for the money. If not change compressor and do thourough check of the rest of the existing system good luck, Love all your videos. Would love you and your crew to replace my furnace for me, a 25 year old counterflow but I am in the northern burbs of the city and I use oil which for some unknown reason you stay away from them. Steve Lav does oil but too far away. Guess I will have my oil supplier do it for me then. I wast a top of the line Thermo Pride counterflow with a beckett AFG burner. Day hi to your mascots Stoley and GiGi. I am the one who sent them the Biscuits a while ago. Thanks for the hat, sticers and pen. Keep posting your great videos. Very informative, educational and entertaining !

    I usually find capacitors and liquid restrictions kill compressorsnthe most in southeast

  • @MarkNehemiah

    Hahooooooo FOOD ❤️ love the vids Mikey pipes!

  • @scottmaz4063

    Hope you took care of that NOISEY bosh 😂

  • @kens.3729

    Missed hearing the Age of the Outdoor Unit to determine if Replacing Compressor makes any sense. 🤔

  • @acmm50

    Mikey P I agree with your assessment and if it were me I would just replace outdoor unit but question, in the presence of no history of leaks, why replace the A coil?? Also would that require a new line set??

    Whoever originally installed the system may have brazed the lines without first running nitrogen in the lines. This could have contaminated the oil causing the compressor to go south. Also if you replace the system without replacing the lines you could be leaving the comatament oil in the lines to damage the new system.

  • @RVail623

    Suggestion: for completeness, you might want to add an extra minute of video footage, to show the condition of the inside of dwelling air filters, since that could have been a factor in the compressor failing.

  • @Samlol23_drrich

    I would think the electrician would have said " It might not be the breaker. You might have a short in the outdoor unit"

  • @everettstevenson2111

    Hey Mikey, of Mikey Pipes Plumbing not easy being cheesy. Hmm, "burn out" oh yes, replace outdoor unit, replace a coil and flush out line set. bad compressor? cause maybe bad low - pressure cut off switch or some one pass the switch. Again hot oil burned the winding on the electric motor, why called "burn out" system has been contaminated. Come on Mikey, you still driving around central park, working out some more of your problems,lol. Love you buddy, you be safe out there.

  • @billhill839

    Be careful Mikey!

  • @scottmaz4063

    I know I know I'm late sorry pipes

  • @tphvac87

    You can tell that thing was cooking the top of that compressor was crispy

  • @SalvadorHVAC

    She's DEAAAAAAD

  • @markcotter2355

    poor bosch didnt' sound so great. what was going on there? Nothing but drain problems here lately. Had one compressor dead this summer. The terminals were blown right off the compressor and plug blew off it.
