when you checked the transformer to see if it was sending power i think that part couldve been done quicker if you would have just turned the breaker off and just ohmed out both sides it wouldve saved you a few minutes but i do think you are awesome i just wanted to add that tidbit

This is awesome. Haven’t seen this kind of repair before. We would have quoted out a whole new unit and/or a reversing valve because it’s worth more money. I didn’t even think to just replace the coil, I’m sure there are different things to consider now and not just any 24v coil, i.e physical connections and plug styles, but where to get them per manufacturer. Anyways. Fun watch 🎉

When you took the old one out the connector was facing the side. When you put the new one on the connector was facing up and hit the shield until you cut it.

Awesome video Taddy. Please continue to do more troubleshooting videos. Ex. What would cause a Blower motor on Auto, not run, but when T-Stat is switched to fan ON, the blower comes on? Weak transformer? Etc. thanks.

@caru3257 Жыл бұрын

Your gas furnace has a limit switch that would control the fan. The t-stat controls the A/C blower.

@keyronwiley2003 Жыл бұрын

The transformer’s only purpose is to reduce high voltage to low voltage. Possibly a t stat issue or relay. Multi meter is your best friend when troubleshooting electrical issues. Good luck!

Good job, Thanks 🙏

@biblebloopers946 2 жыл бұрын

You said make sure there is a inline fuse on the secondary side of the transformer so the fuse gets blown instead of burning up your transformer. But there was a fuse already there that wasn't blown. 🤔

@keyronwiley2003 Жыл бұрын

Assuming the unit doesn’t have a fuse; always install one on the transformer’s low voltage side when replacing.

What if it turns on but not blowing following Nest thermostat replacement. Cold air blows. Hot air not blowing although compressor works fine. Is it a fuse? I also cleaned out my Trane cage. Learning.

Sounds like it's a setting on the thermostat or a wiring issue.

@@TaddyDigest I thought so too at first but Google support for the Nest is not helpful and refute responsibility and state if you have trouble with installation, call the Pro.

That was a reversing valve solenoid? 24 volts actuated? How fortunate. How do you know the reversing valve works? Could have jammed up & burnt up the solenoid. I've had that, so we got a new unit instead.
