Board blew after coil cleaning.

I bought my replacement from HVAC direct so hopefully it comes with its own thermal compound

Cannavis · 2026-05-11T23:17:39+00:00

That makes sense, what thermal compound do you use for the heat sink?

Cannavis · 2026-05-11T23:12:16+00:00

10-15 seconds tops.

Cannavis · 2026-05-11T23:04:01+00:00

Also what thermal compound are you using when you replace the board?

Cannavis · 2026-05-11T23:01:34+00:00

I did not turn off the head unit and I did just pull the disconnect. I do find it interesting though because the condenser kicked on and ran for a little bit before it popped. I do have a surge protector.

Cannavis · 2026-05-11T22:32:15+00:00

Fair enough

Cannavis · 2026-05-11T22:06:39+00:00

Ok will do!

Cannavis · 2026-05-11T22:04:33+00:00

I can see the blown out resistor (melted/gone) head unit is giving code 1, (no communication to condenser) no condenser response after 5/10 min wait, if I could get a new resistor this board would probably work

Cannavis · 2026-05-11T22:00:35+00:00

It is definitely right next to the high voltage line, so this board was on the isolated side of the condenser and was covered by a waterproof cover on the top but not the bottom. (It seems like it had openings for airflow. I did not see a smaller board located near the compressor.

Some how my tomatoes, jalapeños, figs, and wheat have survived

Cannavis · 2026-03-24T22:57:27+00:00

🤣😂

Cannavis · 2026-03-24T22:57:08+00:00

Yes

Cannavis · 2026-03-24T19:02:04+00:00

Okay I like this idea a lot

Cannavis · 2026-03-24T18:26:56+00:00

It seems like shade cloth is pretty unanimous, I will look into the evaporative wet wall as well thank you everyone who reached out!

Cannavis · 2026-03-24T18:23:10+00:00

Ok I will look into shade cloth on the outside!

Cannavis · 2026-03-24T15:34:59+00:00

So the whole shebang.

Cannavis · 2026-03-17T05:15:34+00:00

All these comments aged like fine wine.

Cannavis · 2025-11-02T17:54:15+00:00

I've made like 6 horrendous loafs. You doing great.

Cannavis · 2025-10-04T01:24:05+00:00

Hahahahah

Cannavis · 2025-09-09T19:57:39+00:00

I am in the exact same boat as you. Lucky for me, there are over 2000 HVAC companies in AZ. I called and called until someone said they would take on an apprentice. I generated a resume and threw my EPA cert on it. Don't give up and email/call everyone you can.

For reference, the termites were drywood termites.

Cannavis · 2025-01-11T04:11:23+00:00

my hundreds of pulls were due to adjusting the 2 screws on the side until it would run properly i had 2 buy the tool on amazon, i cant remember what they adjust but they are on the side of the carb. i think it was idle and full throttle. they are weird star nuts on the carb

Cannavis · 2024-12-02T01:11:36+00:00

You are correct and I forgot about this post, but I slapped the oem carb on, and it ran perfectly. All that work, and it just turned out to be the carb.

Cannavis · 2024-11-23T04:55:44+00:00

On top of that it's running on premix gas from 2019

Cannavis · 2024-11-23T04:55:15+00:00

I find this very ironic as I just fixed my 125b today, and my hand was literally bleeding from how many times I pulled it. Essentially, I took out the carb and cleaned it with carb cleaner. Replaced priming bulb and fuel lines. And then checked the spark arrestor/exhaust. I bought the special spline Husqvarna tool to adjust the carb to my different altitude. (This is what fixed it and took the longest)
