THE OTHER GUY WAS HERE FREEZER STILL NOT COOLING! 

Airflow, airflow, airflow! Excellent catch! Slow fans, not stopped fans, very deceptive! You get a super tech star for that one!

Always fun following up after Freon Leon.

Good thing you seen his invoice very important step.

Super Dave saves the day. The Hack got Mowed 😂

Dave got paid AND fiiled up his tank 😂

Good catch davearooski..no frozen coilitus on this one 👌

Thanks Dave. Very. Interest one to. See Evep. Slow. Down. Makes. A. Big. Different. First time. I'm. Hearing. This. One Good. Stuff

Same thing applies to air conditioning too. My boss was telling us of an issue with a mini split that was not cooling good. Some one had charged the system up thinking it was low charge but he found the evaporator coil (it was a cassette system) was dirty. Always check your evaporator fans and coil for proper air flow. Great catch.

Such a great tip on marking those motor brackets . First time changing one of those I just dropped it and when I went to put it back in it took me an extra 15 min to get it aligned where it needs to go Learned my lesson that day

Great call on the charge, no doubt ya got to look at the big picture. Like I say you rock dude! Thanks for great vid. Stephen, Alameda Cal

Solid Gold 👍👍👍

Double the gas, double the cooling right?😂

That’s the thing with small refrigeration equipment. It’s so easy to overcharge so best method what you did, pull charge, weigh back in and further diagnose. Same with ductless heat pumps. Covers your ass in the end

TRUE makes some solid reach in units. I got a few I look after. Only had to change a compressor on one.

Excellent troubleshooting.

Nice job Dave

Super Dave just being super😊😊😊😊

Great job 🎉 always killing it 🌴🤙🌴

8:12 lol😂, it was only slightly over charged.

Some fans runs backwards, when they die. Specially never EC ones. And it looks like they are running. Also something that can mess with you. But 20 oz over, is a lot.

Thanks for the tips Dave!!

How to charge a cap tube system, with out scale... first thing I noticed, suction line frosted back, either no evap air flow or over charged, so if there is air flow and evap is clean with good air flow, system is over charged, how to charge a cap tube system, charge till frost line appears on suction line, stop charging, release a little ref, till suction line pulls back to evap.... correct charge.... the suction line is-not the evap. it is the suction line... I use to do 1000s of ice boxes for ice companys up and down the river.... Az, Nev....

😅next level supertech 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Pulled 60lbs of R12 out of a milk tank once, had a 1hp Copeland style semi on it that sounded like the big end bearings had gone, amazingly it ran as sweet as a nut once I put about 10lbs R134a back in, suspect it had a blocked drier at some point and previous guy just kept dumping it in until the bubbles cleared in the sight glass.

Awesome Dave 👍👍👍

Nice catch. After 30 plus years of working in this field I find myself being less critical of technicians that worked on equipment before me. As us old guys start retiring and there is no one to replace us, that means not enough techs and just as much work, and unfortunately that leads to overworked techs that are busting ass to get all the jobs done on their schedule for the day. That leads to misdiagnosed equipment, unfortunately. The customer definitely deserve better than that. Something has to be done to get the young guys and gals into the field because as it stands, we are a dieing breed.

nice catch

A warm box is always fun.. oh wait.. wrong box.l😅😅😅. Good catch Brother Dave. They should of called the professional from the start. Nor Cal yet again is True to his craft. Stay safe and be well.

Real good video David

Sounds like I was at this call

from my past viewing of those fans, they'll speed up after running a while, I think the oil in them thins out again/bearing come to life. but they're still failing and need replaced soon or one will eventually fail to start again.

Excellent example for greenhorns! Slow down, not everything is low on refrigerant. Critically charged systems need to be recovered and weighed for accuracy.

Great video !!!!! Keep them coming

I've had the condenser fans run slower on their bottle coolers too

Thanks for the tip!

Breaking news!!! Supertech saved a poor compressor that was almost killed by the previous technician 😂😂😂😂 that previous tech have that compressor working double.

Thanks for teaching and showing those pressures and explaining them

Great teacher as aways!!! Much appriciate Dave!

Good catch Dave👍👍👍

excellent vid 🤙🤙

nice repair thanks for sharing.

Excellent fix dave 👍👍👍

Wow , nice job and nice vid full of great sound advice for the young'ens coming up and oldies too ... Thx Super Dave

Good job Dave...your earning your "Super tech" badge back 😅

Good job Dave. You have to look at the big picture. The big picture diagnosis. The holistic approach. 👏👏👏

Excellent catch Dave…No drier? Experience pays off…

I’ve seen plenty enough of Dave’s videos. Even though you didn’t show it on camera, I’m sure you at least checked out that condenser coil also. No need to be called out in a week or so saying that it’s not keeping up and you were just here. But, as always, you rock brotha!!

Great video Dave! Working on lots of RIF now so this was valuable advice. Hope you have a great weekend.

Double vision.

Ooo the udder guy

experience always pays a lot and saves time and bad diagnostics , go Nor-Cal to the next one !

Hi bro from west Alabama

Cool

Wish i would be youre apprentice lol

This is why I love you bro!!! GOOD STUFF, making the rest of us better. You rock Dave. Also, I saw you fiddle with that Klein multi bit doohickey then opt for the straight forward sized tool which reinforces my thoughts that the silly multi bit is a tedious clustercuss. Am I wrong?

Once i saw the high condensing pressure i thought no, bad valves and fans is not the entire story.

Supertech Dave to the rescue!!! Should have hit them with a little finger bang action 😂😂😂

💪👍🇺🇸❄️ great troubleshooting

😊

Great diag! Not to throw the other guy under the bus, but ... Just as Not every song needing more cowbell. Not ever refer system needs more freon. The 'super tech' gets to the root of the problem yet again.

Side Show Bob was there ?

How do you zero out the SH and SC on the app?

"It doesn't take X-Ray Vision to see those evaporator fans are up to no good." Supertech Norcal Dave

Would a TD show that the fans aren’t properly working, and I ran into this with a cooler thought for sure it was the thermostat notice the fan just didn’t seem right. Replaced the Evp fan and it finally worked again like normal

When in doubt weigh it out

I worked with a guy who ordered a whole new evaporator for a reach-in freezer with a dead door switch because he said the evap was plugged with oil and couldn't cool 😅

AIRFLOWAIRFLOWAIRFLOW!😂🍺🍺🍺🥃🥃🇺🇲

Misdiagnosis super tech Dave snatch it by the balls easy fix

When all else fails nor-cal Dave prevails you rock mofo

Are you guys going to pick up the Milwaukee m18 vacuum pump??

What brand/model # evap fan motors did you use. the new ecm motor are $$. Trying to keep cost down for customers

what type and length hoses are you using?

does the customer get a refund on the other guy's call? or this is how it rolls?

344 thumbs up

Young tech hear dave ,in the recovery you kept emphasizing -10 why did you have to go to -10 i thought at 0 its done ?

randomly takes online 608 universal tests... look ma I got 73% and higher without even studying. missed some of the silliest things like recovery tank color(dyslexia kicking in? flip-flopped grey/yellow color) 🤡🤡 one of these days I'll get a bug up my rear and actually go take it, although I don't want to spend big $$$ on equipment and especially not the expensive gasses for the minimal work I'd do with it. 😬 still better for me to refer any probable issues to someone setup with all the gear for daily servicing. although I guess I could much easier go work for a company(yeah nope), maybe help out a friend in the field?

Almost a “ malpractice “ suit🤦🏻. Same with mini splits, I don’t know why guys are so reluctant to start back at the beginning with a known fact and an accurate charge.

Awesome video

why was there another guy to begin with ? only use nor cal.dave 🤪
