When ADL hired you, they didn't realize they're getting two for one; I trruck driver and a mechanic all rolled into one. A very informative video Larry. God Bless You. As always, safe travels. 👍👍
When i said don't forget to take the train horns it really hit me because i watch all of your videos you always talk about not messing with alot of wires like in these new trucks. We all here enjoy your Channel because we get to ride with you, enjoy you talking and telling stories but most of all is your Learning Channel of watching you work on anything. I still enjoy JBG Travels for over 5 years But i'm from the ol school of Trucking.. I drove trucks in the 80's until my accident that left mee confined to this wheelchair,,, So like you say if anyone day is bad,,,,,,,, The try to make the next day better. BONECRUSHER Keep the videos rolling and stay safe,,,,,,,,,,,,'' God Bless
I hope you boss pays you for not only driving your truck, but for all the repair work you do on big blue, and seemingly every other truck In the fleet...your skills are awesome, and you need to be renumerated properly
Yet another Quality APU Fix by LongHaul Larry the Overqualified Truck “Mechanic” and Conscientious “Driver”. Impressive repair and you Benefit firsthand with both AC and Heat. YEA!
I actually made this repair with 20 bucks, new fuse block that is water tight seal with fuse new wires, I ended up putting a seal across that top plate to stop the water from over spray from the wheels, that cover lets water in like crazy so far she's been dry ever since... Great video!!
There ya go, LHLarry learns something new about his Thermo King APU and repairs it in the parking lot. Great video Larry and great information for truckers who have that same APU. Safe travels brother.
@LongHaul Larry can you please give me some advice. I have a tripac like yours. But my Bunk control panel is a bit different....I have a solid orange light and a flashing red fault light. How can I reset it for tge red light to disappear. In order to regen. Thanks
You're doing so much work on those units, you need to change your name to Thermo King Larry. The Boss Man must be very pleased to have not only a good driver, but also a top-rated mechanic. Another good video. Be safe out there and keep the videos coming.
I wish I'd have found this video about 4 months ago, But I'm glad I did find it because everytime I stopped at thermo king they told me to put it in a parking lot leave it here for 2 week and will try to get to it. Thanks a lot for your video and be safe out there.
Thanks you very very VERY MUCH for this video man!! I'm around the Nashville area 7/22/2020 my APU was stopping and starting all night and this morning it decided to not turn on did something similar to what you said just a little different all the lights would come on spend the dial to turn the fan on and then lights would just blink out but decided to check anyways what you said too and sure enough had the same problem! Thanks again! I'm new to the APU units.
Thank you very much for posting this. My control was doing the same thing. Turned out mine already had the updated fuse but where the wire connects to the alternator, it was corroded. Wire brushed the terminals and now have AC again! Thank you!!!!
LOL Larry! I actually was concerned about it till you revealed that it was an April Fools joke. Good one!. Awesome video yet again! Glad you are back and making videos again.
Great job, superbly marvelous....you are "ELECTRICIAN MAGNIFIQUE"!!! Say Larry, while I have your attention I've got a 1951 Ford that I want to take from 6-volt to 12-volt with a Ron Francis wiring harness....Did I hear you say that you'd love to install it for me??????I mean, @6:07 you said that you love wiring...........I think that's what you said!!!!
I'm watching LongHaul Larry from Atwater California, elevation, 151 feet, It's Tuesday, April 2, 2019, the local time is 6:19 am Pacific Time Current temperature is 54° and cloudy☺
Hi Larry the new ADL Thermo King Tech. Shame on them for bad engineering in the salt zone. Obviously, the shop sees it a lot. And the alternator terminal was green. That upgrade should be free. I am sure the bossman will have upgrades for you to install in the affected units in Maryland. LHL and Volvo: give me a break!! Keep on truckin'. PS you should put ADL on your big orange and make more $$$
Sir Larry ""The Prankster"" Thought I was right in calling your ""APRIL FOOLS"" Joke of the day !!HAHA As always,,another great video !!! Have a good trip home to finish the ''APU""Repairs & still have time with your Daughter !!! KEEP IT SAFE !!! Congrats too on jumping up to 14K Subscribers !!! Now you got Thermo King Mechanics watching you !!
LOL... wire stretchers... found right next to the blinker fluid! :) In one of your Cali videos you asked what did we do before GPS... what did we do before zip ties!?
The shop was going to change the tires over so I pulled them off and put them under my bank, I’m going to polish my wheels all up nice before I put them on little easier that way
Replaced mine with an mini anl fuse the spade from the fuse gets loose and melts, anl fuse is bolted so dont move as the maxifuse, so far has been a year, no issues with the fuse before use to burn the holder every 6 months
I swear, thermo king just rip drivers off. you could replaced that with a plan old 50amp block from home depot for 10 bucks. OK so when that special fuse goes, you're going to have to replace it again for $115 bucks because it looks like the fuse is molded into the cable. Thanks for the video!
When you said new truck I went oh boy what's the rest of the story. .... and I said maybe for the boss to see if their is something to fix because of the new drive new truck stuff helping in the passed.....and your going back to your truck sitting at home. I just felt there was more to this story.....so I didn't say anything. Till next ,time don't let the little dude with tools get in your hair. Bye
The display in the sleeper is totally dead. I did press reset and checked all fuses in the control box under the bed. In the APU itself I flicked the engine switch and I also found a cable that had been merged together with a sleeve (didnt look original) and the repair had come apart (!) but the problem was NOT resolved when I put the cables together again... Any ideas? (Also one of the cables for the buzzer had come apart, not that I think that it matters)
Good afternoon Larry do you have any video talking about the voltage SENSE because mine is reading low voltage and apu keep turning on and off but batteries have a good voltage and apu sense voltage are reading around 11 volts then suddenly go up 14 or 15 Thanks
When you had this problem did it run at all? My is doing about 90%of the same stuff and then when I leave it off for an hour it will run again for about 20 min.
Sir Larry !!!! Question for ya ??? Didn't John give you his pressure washer ??? Thought heard You or Him say that it was leaking water & the reason that you didn't use it !!1 If the case isn't split from being froze with ice in the pump,,then its possible that the pressure relief valve is stuck open !! You will have to look at it as then you can pressure wash the APU !!! As if you haven't got anything to do when you get home !!!HAHA KEEP IT SAFE !!!
No he didn’t give me a pressure washer, he dropped off an old generator that he blew the motor up on and wanted me to rebuild it. Yeah the pump on the bottom froze and cracked and needs to be replaced I’m not sure if it’s really worth it or just buy a new one
Hey boss I have been trying to figure out why my apu isn’t charging my battery I replaced the alternator and may have crossed some wires I thought I got them back on right but maybe not I have the first tripac apu there is a cluster of wires that are just grounded a wire to the starter along with a wire from the batteries and the plug please help lol I can’t figure it out
The wire was $12 the thermal King name was $100, probably could’ve got it online for a little cheaper. That’s all we usually do but he wanted me to repair right away to see if that was a problem
You got me on the April fools joke. If you stay trucking long enough you may have one. Enjoy the KW as long as you can. Is the KW a Paccar engine?Be Safe God Bless😇🚛
I thought that was crazy about you changing trucks, but when you mention it and didn't take it any farther..aw he isn't changing trucks,,I mean Big Blue has a new engine and you did a ton of up grades and fixes..April Fools Day never cross my mind..I took it has one of your off the wall jokes...This is really hard to type, I broke my wrist in 2 places so I'm a bit slow..was funny though Larry... lol :))

tazgee That's a good one.
Just found your videos, a good tool to crimp larger wires is a pair of vise grips, they have a cut jaw on large pairs.

April-fools, got me I was looking up Volvo with standard-shift. My wife was laughing @ me, you got me.
😁👍
Great video watching from north east of England county Durham
Thanks 👋
@@LongHaulLarry ,Larry can you telling me why my APU heater not work no more,but tha ac work perfect, please??
I would have left it a little long just in-case you ever have to change it again.
Also, leaving it longer makes it easier to crimp on the splice connector.
That's what I was thinking too better to have and not need than need and have not.
Larry My ashtray got full watching this video great repair
I knew better to believe you were getting a new Volvo, I know how you feel about them. Good April fools joke anyway! Stay safe out there!

Hey Larry this video got by me but I am here now.
I knew you wouldn't give up big blue but we gave you the benefit of the doubt. So where are your lug nut covers and centers?
The shop was going to change the tires over so I pulled them off and put them under my bank, I’m going to polish my wheels all up nice before I put them on little easier that way
Nice repair Larry
Thanks
jbgs volvo dont have the warning beebs anymore..think he disconnected them
Replaced mine with an mini anl fuse the spade from the fuse gets loose and melts, anl fuse is bolted so dont move as the maxifuse, so far has been a year, no issues with the fuse before use to burn the holder every 6 months
Good one Larry. Thanks
Take care.

Seems that way
Volvos aren't just a joke on April Fool's Day.
I live in MTC I haul from white wave 3 times a week.
5 uploads in one day? Larry is trying to show up john lol
Can you do a video on changing the water pump?
I did do one, I could search through the videos it was not too long ago
LongHaul Larry ok thanks. I’ll check it out. I just foot you so I need to look through your videos. Thanks for your help.
Your boss man needs to look at the Mack Anthem that’s a true American truck. There owned by Volvo now. When I was we call every truck a Mack
Yep I remember the old days basically there were not semi just Mack’s
Can you please tell me where to drain coolant from tripac evolution after shutting off the lines?
I have a problem with mine keeps showing a ATL code confused of what could be the problem put 2 new alteralnators on in 6 months
Thank you ,, same problem with my apu

I did not think you would drop down to a lower class like jbg did when you said you was going to volvo
Great video
Thanks
Any idea what wire is black and has a 3amp fuse , seems to go toward starter?
The display in the sleeper is totally dead. I did press reset and checked all fuses in the control box under the bed. In the APU itself I flicked the engine switch and I also found a cable that had been merged together with a sleeve (didnt look original) and the repair had come apart (!) but the problem was NOT resolved when I put the cables together again... Any ideas?
(Also one of the cables for the buzzer had come apart, not that I think that it matters)
From your experience, what's the lifespan of the 120 amp alternator?
Hey Larry what’s that wire additive you used
Good afternoon Larry do you have any video talking about the voltage SENSE because mine is reading low voltage and apu keep turning on and off but batteries have a good voltage and apu sense voltage are reading around 11 volts then suddenly go up 14 or 15
Thanks
I don’t, that sounds like a regulator on alt. Is it a evolution? If so hook up a computer and check what the amps are set too, should be 5amps
Awesome video thank you
When you had this problem did it run at all? My is doing about 90%of the same stuff and then when I leave it off for an hour it will run again for about 20 min.
I am at the 101 lol 😂 Peace ✌️
Which video camera are u using buddy
Sony as 300
Good video.
Thanks
Does it need 50 or can you connect it with out it
My ac isn't blowing out my bunk vents only from under the bunk
Good job

@@LongHaulLarry Cool beans!
You paid $100 bucks for a fuze, chunk of wire, a nut, snd s bolt? i guess they saw you comming Larry.
