The dreaded "Inadequate Vacuum Pump Error" is the worst case scenario for your freeze dryer. It will stop you in your freeze drying tracks and there is never a good time for it to happen. This video is one that I have put lots of research into in order to give the best possible troubleshooting resource for fixing your vacuum issues. I have compiled data and info from Harvestright, YouTube, the freeze drying Facebook groups and user data. We will trace the entire vacuum system of the freeze dryer from the easiest fixes to the more difficult. We will cover your freeze dryer vacuum pump, the drain valve, the vacuum hose, adjusting the door, removing panels, diagnosing vacuum leaks, doing a vacuum test, testing your vacuum plug and sensor etc. This is also my first crack at chapters, so hopefully things that don't pertain to your troubleshooting can be skipped over. My hope is to help many thousands of people in solving their vacuum pump and inadequate vacuum errors.
