Go on no heat today, Trane in the attic. Homeowner says system comes on, blows hot for awhile then blows cold. Check filter, ok, go in attic and see fault code for open high limit flashing, open blower compartment and start poking around. Find a pair of panties wrapped around the blower shaft. After I stopped laughing I had to decide if I am telling the customer what I actually found or if I am just going to make something up. Can't resist, have to show her, want to see her reaction and hear her explanation. Go downstairs with said panties and tell her "Mam, I found these in the blower wheel wrapped around the shaft" Swear to god, she doesn't miss a beat and tells me "well the last time I saw those they were around another shaft" I started cracking up again, she's standing there like this whole scenario is just as normal as normal can be. I collect my money and leave. Only in California!
