I think the brushes aren't replaceable on this one.

Worked like a charm. Thank you soo much

Thank you very much for the demonstration!

How do you remove the louver panel? Do you have to take the unit apart to access it from inside, or can you just pop it out from sides?

I have the same model. Recently mine started making a loud rattling noise, can it be because I need to fully clean the inside or switch out the compressor or fan belt?

Awesome video Thank you so much for helping my wife and I make sense of this . Awesome Thanks

Was really hoping you'd show us how to remove the battery....

this is our 3rd unit in 3 years. we buy refurbisbed which obviously doesnt pay off, we've never had this problem before...we are in florida...the past 3 nights, its beeping (that beeping has given me ptsd from our past units 😑) and the p1 error message shows in the window. 3 nights in a row we have drained an ungodly amount of water out of it. why is it filling up so much?!?! nothing about our environment has changed and our other units never did this, we barely had to drain them ever!!!

Works!

As mentioned in many other comments, my AC was also fixed by cleaning it. Which didn't seem that dirty but ya that did the trick. Thanks for posting!

Great video. The movers loaded stuff on top of my unit and bent the top badly. The video helped pull out the panels. Thanks for pointing out the location of the clips. I unwarped the top and improved the functions.

I wish they had a way to turn off the loud beep

Great video. Thanks.

Do you know how to clean in the little pockets on the top where the flap opens and closes? The pockets where the little arms sit when it’s closed?

You rock man! Over 100 degrees and the unit just isn’t putting out the cool air like it used to. Now it’s back to working like new!!

jesus christ finaly i find the best explained video on this. thank u very much u won a new subscriber...

About once a year i find this video and rewatch it. Been a life saver.

This is the third summer I’ve come back to this video. Thanks again

Do you know if you ever have to change out the water in this type of unit?

I am happy to report that this worked! I used compressed air, a swiffer duster, and vacuum to clean it. I guess this guy knows what he's talking about and is not full of BS like I thought he was. Good job buddy.

I have the same model, I just cleaned mine. It was overheating so I'm letting it cool down a bit before I start it up again, hoping it works!

Trying this tonight thank you!

Thanks man! Second time I watched it because I forgot!

Gerardo thank you so much I followed your instructions and my God my tachiva is working again ,second day. Blessings to you and your love ones, ❤️.

I just followed the instruction to this a couple of days ago. I took the back off and the bottom coil is placed in such a way that it's almost impossible to get your hands in there to clean it, but I managed to wiggle my hand in between the copper tubing for the refrigerant or Freon or whatever and got the bulk of it off. I think it did a pretty good job, but now it's making some weird ticking noises and still periodically. The air will only come out of the right side. I bought a can of compressed air and I'll blow that in there every once in awhile. Then it'll start working properly but in my experience right now it's not a 100% fix. Even though I did clear out all of the dust and cat hair and crap off of there, but remember to clip those extra plastic pieces off, they are completely useless. They serve no purpose. They should have been clipped off at the factory when they came out of the extruder. They serve no purpose other than to impede your ability to clean the coils.

I was told there was spray that cleaned those delicate coils. Is that true?

It's like 98 outside . I feel my unit is blowing cold air up close. But room is not cooling . Is that normal ?

Mine is spitting water out when it's on.

I need some help! I just bought an 8000 btu a/c Toshiba portable ac. It works but question is why does the air only come out on one side of top? I have regular metal vents on the right side the. A hard plastic piece on the other, I would think would metal open vents all the across. Am I stupid or something. It doesn’t look right to me. Can you help me, maybe I didn’t take some packing or something out. I don’t know

Thanks man, I have pets and this thing has been collecting for years apparently, wild how much it can draw through the bottom and not through the filter screens.

One of the first things I did was remove that stupid useless plastic barrier on both of my units which impede your ability to get in and properly wipe down the condenser coils. They serve zero purpose. I don't know why they leave them on there. I used to run a very large plastic extruder and these should be snapped off after they come out of the extruder. I have no idea why they're there and it doesn't hurt for them to be gone. They serve zero purpose other than to hold its shape during the cooling process after coming out of the extruder. I hope this helps because they're completely useless

Thank you so much for this video, its my units 3rd year and it has been blowing warm air and the compressor not turning on. You saved me 300 bucks! Thank you so much 💓 🎉

Thank you for the post

Thanks a lot!

Would you recommend using air compressor for the bottom fins? I just realized that it was sucking in all this nasty, moldy, and dusty air because it sat next to a nasty couch for the entire fall and winter. Now it blows out air that makes my skin itch.

My unit will be on and set to temp ... blows cold then 5 or 25 mins later it stops blowing but is still on.... then 5 minutes later it starts blowing...I don't think it's a got to temp feature... it's should be blowing steady until I cut off. Any help or advice

That is the same one I have.

Dewalt sucks with their design and instructions. They print tiny unreadable lawyer disclaimers and leave the rest up to you. I’m returning mine.

Thank you for such an easy tutorial! I was successful at restringing my trimmer for the first time😊

I followed your instructions and dammit man it's working great. Thank you

Thanks! Also for anyone attempted this, the clip locations are more like 2.5”, 8”, 16.5” 21”

I keep the link to this video as an instruction manual for my trimmer, everyone in my house uses this video lol. Good stuff, and thank you

Legend buddy, exactly the problem I was looking to solve, thanks for posting.

Is there any way to remove the front components, like the grating and blower fan? I had my AC off during the winter, and it grew mold on the inside. I don't know of any way of getting in there to clean it.

Thanks a lot.

Thanks so much perfect 👌

Such simple instructions. Even the photos in the Dewalt manual are foreign. Thanks for your video. The trimmer has never worked this well.

Tried this today after saying F it. The tabs definitely take some finesse but was easy from thereafter. After cleaning it seems like it’s back to normal! Thank you so much for the tips !!!

Thank you, thank you! It took a while, but your video made it possible for the first time!!

Thanks! My unit works perfectly except for the blower. Is there a blower replacement video you could put out?
