Yeh, it’s another capacitor. Nothing extraordinary here. But, dang that’s a big condenser.

Alright,
on this one I said
this thing keeps
tripping a breaker.
My word,
this is a huge unit.
Train XR.
Three and a half ton.
Still,
this thing is huge.
I can't see that.
Is that 2015? 2015?
Yeah, they said it was
tripping a breaker
and I caught
myself checking
the breaker.
Looks like
the contactor's
pulled in.
and look at all
those spider
webs contactors
pulled in let's
see if we got
power no power
like
I
said
I
thought
I
checked
breaker
we
got
a ECM
motor
on
this
contactor
all
right
no
power
another one
of those disconnects i wish
people wouldn't use them
all right let's pay enough
let's take another
trip inside and check
on that bike yeah it was
tripped let's see why it's
tripping check this real check
this capacitor real quick all
right it's supposed to be reading
45 trying to get
this where I can show
you that is point
zero three two nano
farads so that thing's dead that's why
it's tripping a breaker we I don't have
just
a 45
so I'm
using
45 I
see
if
this
thing
will
come
on
all
right
what
was
that about that is status
light steady blinking and
I've got a fault light of I
I think that was
four flashes,
soft lockout.
Why do I have
a soft lockout?
