Good to see solid troubleshooting technique instead of the dealership method of just replacing parts until it works.

@wolfhound1a says:

This guy's thinking is ass backwards. The very first thing you do is check if the compressor is engaging.

@MeMadeIt says:

Obviously, the FIRST STEP would be checking if the compressor was engaging!!!
Evac'ing and recharging the refrigerant FIRST was completely uncalled for! Indeed, it should've been LAST! Hopefully, you didn’t charge the customer for that unnecessary labor!

@teeheetummytums972 says:

I would have checked for power first. Remember we don’t assume, we verify. People’s money is funny.

Ur like a blind cat my dude

@Evolvedmindz1 says:

Ur trash y would ur 1st step be to recover when u see clutch is not engaging y u swapping relays when u have a test light

@BMathiesen says:

Great diag man! Absolutely love these kinds of videos! Keep up the good work brotha!

@gagestephens1414 says:

You should check if the blend door is working first

@DarkyUnderground says:

Voltage out of a Class 2 Data wire? Put down the crack pipe.

@kostassarakinos3062 says:

Maybe it just one of the pressure switches on the AC lines they go bad and the compressor will refuse to engage

@2a4c12 says:

Solid work man.

@deezy_da_M_E says:

Check the blend door actuator first if its a ford.

@andrewtravers7964 says:

And u had to charge customer $500 to verify he had enough coolant in the system. Can we do this before draining and servicing the coolant. I think it would be a lot cheaper just to check the electrical system first.

@briankratzer8190 says:

I check fuses, relays and refrigerant before piercing wires, because I've seen plenty of vehicles where the pierced wires corrode after exposure to water and or salt.
