An old fashion "growler". An electro magnet which is built with a physical notch where the commutator sets and an old hacksaw blade would show you if that commutator has become to hot and developed short on it's field winding which could very well be caused by a sticky brush. Also, shouldn't a PWMs primary frequency be stable and it's % of power be variable? I am in the process of designing one. It should have a frequency of about 24Khz and the variable voltage should be between 20% and 80% of each time division. What are your thoughts on this?

I have the same turntable and thank you for showing how to replace the belt. One thing you did not show but repaired was the tone arm lift. Mine doesn't lift so I'm wondering if you can share what you did to get the lift to work again. Thanks

Great video. Can you clarify if we need to pigtail the resistor wire with a new wire directly to the + coil side ? Also the small brown wire on the solenoid has to be disconnected for it to crank over but will only fire after you let off the key to run position !! Can you give advice on the correct connection for the resistor & brown wire .thanks

I had an old flex a lite shrouded one piece fan go bad. I tried ordering a new one but the design changed and it wouldn't fit. I ended up installing a no name 18 inch fan that I had, on a 3 row aluminium champion radiator. It draws 18A at startup, maintains 8A draw at full speed. It holds my heavy leather work gloves on the face of the radiator.

Thanks for the vid, I have the same type of board pretty much in a Rheem dual pack/ roof unit and my fan control just got stuck on (prob fan relay/ contactor welded) but we're about to have a 105/107* heat wave here in SoCal in Oct (figures) in the next few days but luckily the AC/ compressor section still kicks in so I'm going to wait until to tear into it. Was just looking around and found this! Thanks for the vid and good job!

Good job explaining the YOM process. The left side well years are: 1964, 1967, 1969 The right side well years are: 1965, 1966, 1968 For 1963 there are no stickers, only the '63 stamped into the plate in right side well. There were no month stickers in the 1960's or earlier, first year of the month sticker was 1976.

In 2021 I had the same problem with my wife's 2014 Bug. I couldn't find any helpful info at that time and took it to the local dealer. They "diagnosed" the problem and said we needed a new light unit, and $450 later the problem was fixed. This summer the whole thing started again, so I did more searches and found your video. Your diagnosis and fix was spot on! Now I'm seriously doubting that we needed a new light unit in 2021. If this happens again I know I can fix it in 15 minutes (probably permanently with a drop of thread locker). Thanks for posting this video!

Thanks for this! I noticed my ice maker wasn't working and was dreading the whole diagnosis process. I never would have thought to check the plastic fill tube at the top, and wouldn't you know, it was plugged with 3" of ice. I noticed the factory was kind enough to leave out any kind of gasket for that connection so that it can happen again. I decided to just cover that whole area with foil tape. Thanks Again!
