Re: advice about AC problems

To all the members who offered advice about this problem, I want you to know I finally fixed it.:thumb:
I eventually came to the conclusion it must be low on gas, but I couldn’t get anyone to come...

Re: advice about AC problems

I appreciate your attempt to help me dtrue, but you also need to read my own responses.
I just wrote that the factory explicitly told me NOT to use R22 in my AC. So what am I now supposed to...

Re: advice about AC problems

Like I said before: I have a gage I can screw into the input port which measures psi. With the unit off it reads 70 psi and the moment I switch the thing on the compressor kicks in and the pressure...

Re: advice about AC problems

I won't do anything more until I find someone who has R438a (MO99) who can fill it up—at a reasonable rate.
I found a local guy, who said he lived ten minutes away, but still wanted $90 call out...

Re: advice about AC problems

It was a struggle to remove the unit, but we managed to get it out and I made some of the tests recommended by everyone.
I Ohms tested the compressor: Start to common 2 Ohms. Run to common 4 Ohms...

Re: advice about AC problems

Thanks Pesarsten,
It's screwed into the line, but I'm not sure with a schrader valve. I'll phone the makers and ask. I'm used to those valves.

Re: advice about AC problems

Yes I've talked to them and they are not helpful. Say I have to get an AC tech, but they can't recommend one in my area. Pretty useless really.
And under no circumstances must I take the top of the...

Wink Re: advice about AC problems

Well I’ve finally managed to pull the AC unit out of it’s cubby hole, and dismantle it as far as I dare.
I first tested all the grounds and they are good, not corroded at all.
I then removed the...

Re: advice about AC problems

Hi Guys,
I want to thank everyone who has responded to my post so far.
I haven’t been able to remove the AC unit yet, on my own. It's up high in a locker and I can't lift it out myself, but I'll...

Re: advice about AC problems

Thanks Redsky49. I'm fairly good with electronics and I know how a AC works. I'm going to take it out of its locker and give it a good inspection and clean. I've got a good multimeter as well. I...

Re: advice about AC problems

Thanks Pesarsten.
I can't do the feon anyway, don't have the gages. I can't remember what the number is, but it's on the lable. I'll know tomorrow.
I'm going to the boat tomorrow and the AC's will...

Re: advice about AC problems

Thanks Guys,
The manufacturer told me not to switch the capacitors because of the high current, (they would though, wouldn’t they?). If both units have been off for an hour, is there any current...

Re: advice about AC problems

The flow seems just like it always is. I have an outlet from each unit from the common pump and water is flowing out of the forward and rearward unit like normal. I will flush them out though, just...

advice about AC problems

I have two Pompanette Air 16,000 btu AC units on my boat, which have worked very well for five years in Florida heat. Now, one has refused to blow cold air and the manufacturers have not been very...
