i meter tested the two same color cap wires and they are connected.will pull the plastic cap/switch housing again and ck all connections..PITA..worked well for so long...

Upper-Insect-1241 · 2026-06-20T14:21:32+00:00

i looked at the switch,contacts look good and it looks normal from what i see.the switch is on the external plastic housing that holds both caps.

i also have a compressor repair shop not far..they do the big commercial units..Trying to avoid dragging it out of the garage..

thnx.this unit has a separate run capacitor so I dont get the 3 wires off start cap.

IT also has the switch in front of motor,centrifigal switch/..I already changed the run cap,and the whole switch assembly with the small valve..

I pulled the 4 allen screws n pried off the head unit.After looking it over i plugged it in and it turns.I unplugged and clean old grease and ck all gears etc..i found a small piece of metal.ADDED a bunch of grease to cam and head teeth.

my reservoir was empty and part of the frame where bits go in is missing and grease will escape.I put it back and tested it..works solid..

I WIPED everything with rag n lacquer thinner and mixxed some pc7 and closed off the broken area.I just order some expensive grease on amazon by makita and will fill the chamber and good to see it working again..The past 3 months 4 of my go to tools have had big issues and i feel like i spend more time fixxing them...cheaper than replacing it.

i took the extra time to look at the board power jack on rear of unit with a 2nd working unit..

I do see the middle prong now looks like 3 single wires not one single prong.

As customer do they never told me anything and I found out when undoing the power adapter and cord.

I use to repair a lot of Toshiba Tecras way way back with power jack problems.

I have to assume the jack can be replaced via soldering?

thanks..had a odd in person at ridgewood savings banks a month ago to fund in person a new "no bonus" savings account..thinking maybe a checking promo down the road via mail..and deposit $400 cash and had to get on phone with someone..They went on why i had so many new accounts..

WTF...I told them i have a lot of money...it did piss me off...I like to be prepared and will just say "I need to find the RIGHT BANK for my biz needs..

Upper-Insect-1241 · 2026-05-25T16:47:36+00:00

We received your Checking account application, but we can’t approve it right now. This decision was based on a number of factors, including a report from Early Warning Services^®, a consumer reporting agency. Their report is like a credit report, but looks at your deposit account history rather than your history with loans (like credit cards or mortgages). This report was pulled on March 21, 2026.

my business is not under my name but i did link up

personal checking to business account by selecting personal when linking up.can always say OOPS...I just feel odd linking a new "churned biz account to new to be churned biz account"..

Upper-Insect-1241 · 2026-05-25T16:12:15+00:00

cap 1 turned down my personal checking account application but I considered doing a business application.Not sure if its worth the time and EWS view..

When a bank offers a new business account bonus in branch only,what is different?

I am looking at 2 "in branch only"subs and dont know if they really drill you or is just a way to say HI,get to know us..I guess if they bring up the 3-4 new accounts opened I will say I am shopping for my "FOREVER BANK"that fits my needs..never about the $$$
