I’d love to have the opportunity to be a fly on the wall on the cars you diagnose. Lots to learn by watching you work. I work in avionics (airplane electronics) but I only get to work on new installations so the problems I run into and have to repair are pretty standard and repetitive. Automotive diagnostics on old cars brings in a challenge because there’s the unknown of who did what and what has happened to the vehicle over its life. Thanks for putting these videos out. It feeds my inner desire to learn.

I see used to see high end FoMoCo products from '02-'04 only 6 years old with rot like that. Navigators & Expeditions - they always looked like they were parked in the ocean. Ford must've scored a great deal on steel out of the Mainland ... If I was the owner I'd have dumped that for something else years ago. Once all of that is fixed, it'll be a few months, and something else will bust - the trailing arms should be due to rot in half any day now. Great vid as always! 🍻

Thanks for the great Videos Keith. I'm a Heavy Duty tech so they give me a peek into the passenger vehicle world of diagnostic and repair. Quick question for you..I'm guessing Ford's IDS software can be used through other communication devices besides their VCM II? We're starting to see quite a few Ford Transits and I'm wondering if we could run IDS through something like Noregon's DLA+ 2.0 since we already have a few of those. Again, thanks.

We are being told that it can be used on any vci shortly. Now here's my opinion . As someone who has played with many jbox units, there are some that just function better than others. The Cardaq or Bosch units will stand the test of time. Bosch makes the MDI2 for GM , the vcm2 for Ford, the Mazda vcm2, the Subaru tool, Nissan etc. If I am going to play ball in the field I want something that works best. The vcm2 is about as solid a jbox as Jve ever seen

Check for moisture around the passenger door harness along the floor. Sometimes you can have water leaking from the sunroof which drips down or your air conditioner evaporator drain allows water to come back in under the carpet. Trace the red and white wire and make sure you have battery voltage. Moisture sometimes gets through the insulation on that wire and reduces the voltage.

Ok, so you lost me. The CJB is feeding only 4v out to the VSM, which is causing the modules that share the UBP to malfunction. And you suspect that the CJB is the culprit, due to water intrusion, and evidence that other components have also recently been replaced? Did you check directly at the CJB, for reduced output voltage? Or just the feed wire from there to the module, at the module? Could a problem exist between those two points? I can't see from the vid, maybe a pinched wire from the other repairs/replacements?

I'm assuming that you did not watch the whole video by your comment. A decision made by the customer (the shop in this case) is what ended the diagnosis right where I left off. It was purchased for what would be "cheap". The had already spent more in other repairs then expected and limited me to a price they were willing to pay. The last thing not shown in video, and not due to laziness but time constraints, was showing that the rear folding seat module did not function until power was applied OUT from CJB manually. The shop customer declined any further repairs on that visit, but did eventually replace the cjb and the problems were resolved. I was called in to diagnose an additional problem a few weeks later with power to the passenger window BTW, which was due to an improperly seated plug after the shop replacing that CJB. Anyhow hope you found something in the free video I took a moment to make
