This video demonstrates how to restore the air couplers of your AirBuddy if they haven’t been thoroughly rinsed in fresh water after diving. Build-up of salt, limescale or oxidation can clog the internal mechanism and prevent it from proper operation.

This video demonstrates how to take off the cover of your regulator if you need to inspect it or perhaps clean any sand or debris stuck in the exhaust valve.

This video demonstrates how to replace the regulator or the regulator hose on your harness. You need a 15-millimetre and a 22-millimetre spanner for the harness side; and a 17 and an 18-millimetre spanner for the regulator side.

This video demonstrates how to remove and install the air coupler on your float if you need to clean it or replace for a new one. For this job, you’ll need a 22-millimetre spanner with narrow head, Loctite SI 5331 silicone thread locker and a small bottle brush.

This video demonstrates how to remove and install the air coupler on your float if you need to clean it or replace for a new one. For this job, you’ll need a 22-millimetre spanner with narrow head, Loctite SI 5331 silicone thread locker and a small bottle brush.

This video demonstrates how to replace the J-hose on your float (air reservoir) for a new one. You can use various 22-millimetre tubular spanners, however we recommend using a 22-millimetre oxygen sensor socket with a cut-out for the hose wide at least 12 millimetres.

This video demonstrates how to replace the main coupler or the pressure gauge on the compressor unit. For this job, you need a 22-millimetre spanner for the coupler, a 27-millimetre spanner for the pressure gauge, a small brush and Loctite SI 5331 silicone thread locker.

This video demonstrates how you can lift the platform on your AirBuddy to inspect the compressor, if you for example suspect that there may have been some water intrusion. You can use the Torx-15 screwdriver from our toolset for this job or some other Torx-15 screwdriver available from your local hardware store.

This video demonstrates how you can replace the platform with the electronics of your AirBuddy. For this job, you need a Torx-15 screwdriver which is also contained in our toolset or a power tool with a long T-15 attachment, a seam ripper and hot air gun.

This video demonstrates how to remove the compressor if you need to get access to the pressure relief valve which is located underneath the compressor. You may want to inspect and clean the valve for example if you identified an internal air leak or suspect a previous water ingress. At minimum, you need the tools contained in our toolset, which includes a foldable T-handle, Torx-15 and Torx-30 bits and a 16-millimetre, deep socket, as well as a descaler, cotton swabs, food-grade silicone O-ring grease and Loctite 243 thread locker.

This video demonstrates how to replace the compressor of AirBuddy, for example if your AirBuddy was involved in an accident and the compressor suffered water damage. At minimum, you’ll need the tools contained in our toolset, which includes a foldable T-handle, Torx-15 and Torx-30 bits and a 16-millimetre, deep socket, as well as a descaler, cotton swabs, food-grade silicone O-ring grease and Loctite 243 thread locker.

This video demonstrates how you can replace the battery wires if they for example suffer a mechanical damage or severe oxidation that can no longer be polished away. For this job, you need the new wire with the solder splice heat-shrink sleeve, as well as some basic tools including cable cutters, wire strippers, paper, permanent marker, and a hot air gun.

This video demonstrates how to fix a loose contact on the charging connector if it somehow detached and no longer latches onto the metal spring underneath the contact.

This video demonstrates how to fix whistling flag if it’s accidently tuned to squeal at a certain flow rate of the compressor. It’s very rare, but it may occasionally happen when the compressor draws the air through the flag that it whistles like a flute.
