I'm going to attempt to fix my truck's air conditioning. Of course it waited until the weather was sweltering hot to stop working. I know just enough about refrigerant systems to be dangerous, wish me luck!
If that's successful and/or doesn't take all weekend, I'm going to try to build some temporary screening around my tiny back porch to give me somewhere to sit outside away from the mosquitos.
Yeah, that side is more my speed, too. I built an arduino based compressor controller a few years ago when that went out. But this is something internal (high side pressure pegging the gauge 30 seconds after the compressor engages).
Took it by a friends shop to get it evacuated today and they agreed that my amateur assessment (dryer and expansion valve) was where they would start first. So I've got a bit more confidence going into it. Fingers and toes crossed I don't find a bunch of metal inside.
