Aircond faults we get called for across Johor Bahru
Find your symptom. Every one of these is a different job at a different price.
- Running but not cold - aircond tak sejuk. The most common call in JB. Causes in order of frequency: a fouled coil restricting airflow, low refrigerant from a leak, a failed capacitor stopping the compressor, a failed outdoor fan motor. The first is a cleaning job and the rest are repairs. We tell you which before charging you for either.
- Tripping the breaker. Could be the unit, could be the circuit. If it is the circuit that is our electrician in Johor Bahru lane, and we do not charge you twice to find that out.
- Water dripping inside the room. A blocked drain line nine times out of ten, which is a cheap fix. Occasionally a cracked drain pan, or an ice-up caused by low gas.
- Ice on the pipes or the coil. Low refrigerant or restricted airflow. Icing is a symptom of something else, and topping up the gas without finding the leak buys a few months.
- Loud rattle, grinding or screech. Blower wheel out of balance, a worn fan bearing, or a failing compressor. The last one changes the maths on whether repair is worth doing.
- Dead, no response from the remote. PCB, power supply, or a remote nobody checked the batteries in. We check the cheap causes first.
- Smell on start-up. That is a cleaning job, not a repair - deep-clean chemical wash in JB.

When repair stops making sense
A compressor on an inverter unit past three or four years usually costs more than a new unit installed. We show you both numbers, the repair and a a new unit installed in JB, and you pick. An operator who only quotes you the repair is not doing you a favour.
The same applies to a leak inside the indoor coil. Replacing the coil often costs more than the unit is worth, and we say so rather than selling you a gas top-up every four months.
Message before 3pm and we come the same day

Frequently asked questions
How much to diagnose an aircond fault in JB?
RM 79 call-out and diagnosis, and it comes off the bill if you proceed with the repair.
Kenapa aircond saya tak sejuk?
Punca biasa: coil kotor, gas bocor, kapasitor rosak, atau kipas unit luar rosak. Kami periksa dahulu sebelum kata apa-apa, dan harga diberi sebelum kerja bermula.
Can you come the same day?
Most days, if you message before 3pm. Tell us the area and we will give you a real window rather than a vague morning.
Do you carry parts with you?
Capacitors, contactors and common drain pumps, yes. PCBs and fan motors are ordered against your specific model, usually same or next day.
Will you tell me if it is not worth repairing?
Yes, with both numbers in front of you - the repair, and a replacement unit installed.
Is it the aircond or the wiring if it trips?
We test both. If it is the circuit rather than the unit, that is electrical work and we price it as electrical work.
