2007 Chevy Uplander No Start No communication

Sorry in advance for poor lighting and being tired . Plenty more to talk about in this one , so ask questions in the comments

[@MadMattz76]

A master at your trade. I love your videos ! Between you, Eric O and Ivan I stopped watching TV all together. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with the rest of us.

[@NewLevelAuto]

MadMattz76 the compliments like these are the reason I really am enjoying making the videos . Hopefully I can find more time to make some

[@MadMattz76]

I appreciate the effort. Not sure how much time you can find with near midnight diagnostic calls.....

[@rwrobs777]

...and Scanner Danner...that's all I watch now...everyday !!!

[@unclemarksdiyauto]

You saved another car and customer! Hate to think customer may have had to buy another car & junk this one if you hadn’t come along! Another good job!

[@robschannel9229]

Awesome job. The dealer has the same tech, or at least access to it, but missing the critical thinking that you used to solve this puzzle. Love the video!

[@koffibanan3099]

Even in the dark, tired and weary, this beats so much other car related stuff out there. Thanks a bunch!

[@simonparkinson1053]

Excellent video Keith! Who cares about a bit of blur, shake or black screen when you've taken such an effort in less than ideal conditions to produce this video. The technical content is what I'm here for and we certainly got that! Seems the dealer tech was so near yet so far from finding the fault, having missed something pulling the data line high

[@geraldsanford2411]

correct / technical content and explaination of diagnosis is the key GR8 VIDEO KEITH

[@danekeeper1]

Keith, I know your out there trying to make a buck but when you do what you do you really help people from getting the shaft...., great job man!

[@NewLevelAuto]

+danekeeper1 truth is I never would have had the money to become a doctor , so I save people a different way now. And that compliment means a lot to me , thank you

[@SmittySmithsonite]

Dealer has car for 4 months - Keith has it running in less than 30 minutes ... after 11PM too!! Nice work man! You make it look easy. :)

[@jamespatterson3913]

Don't forget he did it with one hand tied to a camera

[@martywoods7050]

Thanks Kieth for taking the time to video this in the dark and working one handed. I learn so much from all of your shares. I try to focus more on your thinking process than on the specific problem your are solving. You are inspiring!

[@juiced71]

And now that's why you call someone who knows what they are doing!! Just awesome!!

[@NewLevelAuto]

+juiced71 I tried calling them but they wouldn't answer , so I went myself 😁

[@HomieHektor]

Hi Keith,Very nice job.I give you a lot of credit for having the patience to take on and repair a basket case.Most of the time at my shop I pass on them.Again great job

[@NewLevelAuto]

jimthecarguy I'll tell ya what Jim , don't pass those cars up anymore. Set those up for a Saturday and I'll hop over the bridge and we can knock a few out together☺

[@DIYDaveOK]

I can only hope to gain a tiny fraction of what guys like you, Eric O, and Ivan convey in your videos. I also hope people realize how much of an extra hassle/effort it takes to MAKE the videos let alone do the job that pays your bills. Thanks for every bit of info you share and for the time you take to share it. You guys help little DIY types like me more than you can know!!

[@leebarnes655]

Your dedication to feed us videos is admirable when these lengths are gone to and they are always a treat to watch. Just know I'll wait patiently for the next one, top drawer stuff Keith.

You made this video just for me didn't you? class II and CAN! Thanks again for the video Sensei Keith! the master!

[@k-evinshighshowcantonese9922]

Thanks Keith for the willingness to share your knowledge. I've learned a lot of stuff from your video. I remember the first time I watched this video about 6 months ago. Besides the fact that I knew you were working on a communication issue, I had completely no clue about what you were doing and what you were talking about. Tonight I just happen to watch this once again for maybe the 3rd time. These Network stuff start to register into my brain. Thanks.

[@ericcorse]

Too expensive to fix you should get a raise Keith. Well done

[@zoidberg444]

Thanks for taking the time to do this Keith. When it comes to CAN and all the networking side of diagnostics i am very much in the dark. Its always interesting to learn about this. Thanks for taking the time to make this video.

[@NewLevelAuto]

+zoidberg444 and as always thank you for the support. I'll try and make more of these type , seems people really need help with it

[@haywardsautomotive6156]

Nice diagnosis Keith. That dealership should be ashamed they couldn't fix that b/c it's basic isolation & then attempting communication with each module independently. Even if someone doesn't have any test equipment they can still disconnect the modules on the comm line and see if any are affecting the comm signal and would have found the EBCM. The comm buss bar (comb) makes it so much easier there is really no excuse for them not finding it especially with a factory scan tool and then they probably charged the customer for the labor even though they didn't fix it...at least that's what the dealerships do around here. Great video Keith and hopefully the car is fixed and back to the owner.

[@NewLevelAuto]

+Hayward's Automotive they charged 410 for the wiring repair and mandatory lift fees . Yes the car went there running and left on the hook . They never put on paper what they found to be the direct fault , they simply wrote that there were many and that the vehicle would not be cost efficient to continue with from their perspective. They were actually bailing on the job because of the cb radio that the security company installed. Which btw is nowhere near a single wire used for class 2 or Can network. They should be ashamed , but they won't be. Someone got their flat rate hours and moved on with life

[@haywardsautomotive6156]

It's flippin crazy. I get customers all the time that get ripped off by dealerships and after I fix their car they still go back to them and get ripped again...I don't get it. I don't get it how they can charge someone and replace parts that don't fix the problem b/c they diagnosed it wrong and charge them for the parts and labor and the car leaves still broke and they bring it back and they get charged again...it's insane. HAHA insane is when you do the same thing over and over and expect a different result.

[@RobertHancock1]

The dealership did an absolutely brutal job here. Keeping the car for 4 months and not figuring out it was one bad module? And then butchering up the wiring on that splice pack in the process? (Any idea what the hell they actually did to splice the wires under the gobs of electrical tape?) I guess if they didn't have a lab scope and were just following the OEM flowcharts that may have led them to a dead end, but surely they could have done a better job than that.

[@nzkgb1486]

Hi guys when you get a minute check out the RNZ pod cast in the link about The Dunning-Kruger effect it most likely applies to the dealer ship in this case or the customer that keeps going back.....its worth the listen enjoy www.radionz.co.nz/national/programmes/afternoons/audio/201847210/the-dunning-kruger-effect

[@Micko350]

Watching this bought back memories, I remember in 2007 (GM) Holden here in Australia were replacing ABS modules for free as they were dropping like flies(I had quite a few in cars of my own but the amount of customers cars that were coming in with dead ABS Modules was huge! Thanks Keith!

[@dylankinch2735]

great , informative video keith. i love watching your process as you move along your diag. very helpful to watch and listen to what u do. thanks keith

[@NewLevelAuto]

+Dylan Kinch glad you enjoyed it. Video raw like this only added about 15 minutes to the diag , hopefully I can do a few more like this

[@mdlee52]

That was fascinating, Keith. I'm looking forward to The Best $300 Scan Tool video. I've got my $300 ready and waiting...

[@NewLevelAuto]

[@robertwynkoop68]

For 300 dollars, www.autoenginuity.com/ works good for me. A little slow. I have GM, Toyota, Ford modules on mine. It cost around $700. Of course this does not include the cost of a laptop.

[@mosesdog2]

Best $300 scan tool I believe will be the Launch Easydiag 2.0 plus.

[@Legionaris]

Thanks Keith for taking the time to make a video, especially when you are burning the midnight oil, greatly appreciated. Surprised Eric O. wasn't texting you.

[@NewLevelAuto]

[@andrewk778]

Thank you for a most interesting, informative, and fascinating video. In addition, I received a nice Tech2 tutorial. You really do take things to a whole new level.

[@leedress2187]

it's nice to see you guys that look for the "why" in a problem. the dealer probably couldn't be bothered to figure it out and they would make more money selling a new car. and you don't need to apologize for the video. it's the content we are all here for, and the content is fantastic. keep up the good work!

[@kirkabrahamson1148]

Nothing wrong with that video at all Keith. Its not like you're shooting for discovery channel :) .The content was awesome watching how quickly you narrowed it all down. Love ya work mate.

[@reweydewy]

Dam Keith you have some serious knowledge and skills with automotive diagnostic and repair. I bet you save these shops and/or customers asses when the parts Cannon fires and thay are sitting there scratching there head. Thanks for sharing!

[@PerrynBecky]

Thank you for making this video at such an ungodly hour showing us how to troubleshoot this basket case. I am completely blown away. You went through this step by step, you utilized the tools at your disposal, and systematically narrowed down the problem. This was very informative!

[@NewLevelAuto]

I have a video that I am trying to restore of a no start caused by a OEM DVD player🤪. Appreciate the compliments and glad you enjoyed

[@elcheapo5302]

Great video, Keith. That was some ninja-level diagnostics. Working at midnight is no fun, but at least that Eric guy leaves you alone then. ;)

[@droneservices8993]

Thank you very much for this video. My 2005 Cadillac cts does not have one large splice pack. They are all over the car. When you explained that pin 2 on the DLC fed to the class2 serial bus a lightbulb lit and now I can open the splice paks and trace what is pulling all the modules down. You just got another subscriber.

[@ecwurban]

This video in particular should be required watching for bosses, trainers, instructors, etc. When I was starting out everyone was freaking out about CAN. Acting like network communication diagnosis was the most advanced thing ever. The Final Dungeon Boss! Dun dun dun! Like you'd have to program it or know individually what all the packets meant. It's not some big scary monster. 99% of the time it's no different than diagnosing a faulty 5v ref circuit... As always, awesome video!

[@DaveSender66]

Keith it's amazing how you concentrate so well that late in the day. The dealer technicians have access to engineers in Detroit that can help them solve this problem. obviously they could not come to a solution. you take this job on at 11 p.m., 20 cars deep into your day, you find the solution in less than 10 minutes. You mind sharing your thought process in another video? Nice work Keith! !!!!!

[@NewLevelAuto]

+DaveSender66 I'll be trying to make more like these for everyone , but lighting becomes the issue when I try and do these late in the evening. On top of which you know as well as I do that night in NYC means keeping one eye over your shoulder at all times. Daytime is too hectic with phone calls and would cause me to stop repeatedly . So looks like night will win out for now.

[@graymodeler]

As far as too expensive to fix, it may be the high cost of a new anti lock/ traction control module, servo install at dealer prices. I got a $1000 quote on a Buick traction control unit once. But they didn't know that was even the problem. Great diagnosis.

[@NewLevelAuto]

+William Fowler My price on the module is $460 , no hydraulics needed . So I would be amazed at what the labor could've been on this that put it over the top in their eyes

[@GRowe1978]

[@mikechiodetti6737]

A fantastic job! THAT is a great way to "make the system work for you," by applying the signal to each module on the Class 2 data line. I'm gonna keep this video just for that. I didn't notice where the Class 2 originated from, but using the signal worked! I've only seen C.A.N. problems in modules. Sometimes it's just dirty connector. You are the best! Great Video!

[@8power0]

Excellent work very outstanding communication skills , to be able to make the viewer fell as if they are there with you . From this video in particular i have learnt so much this one video so far to me felt like you answered a thousand questions . There teachers and then there are educators you are in a very elite class my friend . I have taken notice on your diagnostic approach , one you give it a visual , two you scanned the vehicle , three you separated the hybrid communication network and then you zeroed in on the root cause as i have seen it , if i am wrong please let me know . I feel there is more to learn from this video but I have not seen it as of yet and i can not thank you enough for this video i can see the force runs strong with you and thanks again .

[@8power0]

Thanks much , only stating what i saw thanks again .

[@Okie-Tom]

How wonderful it is to have someone like you that can figure out some of these screwy problems! Loved the video. Between you, Eric, and Ivan I have really enjoyed these " detective" videos. Thanks for uploading these. I am subscribed to your channel as well. Tom

[@billrimmer5596]

So, in summary. The antilock brake module was, because of something askew inside, sending a voltage that was to high to the class two com line. That caused the theft deterrent to kill the starter command. However the pcm was online and communicating. If cranked, would the car have started? If not, then anything that affects the class two or the other com line will bring the whole system down and it crashes, causing a no start. Like the 5 volt reference in Scanner Danner videos. I never even knew there was a buss bar thingamagic. Very informative. Now I know why Ivan and Eric r always seeking u out. And lastly, the two tools really necessary were knowledge of the buss and a wiring diagram allowing u to identify abnormal comm voltage and the source of it by the process of elimination.?

[@NewLevelAuto]

+Bill Rimmer Theft deterrent requires Bcm to be able to speak to the ecm. This would never have cranked without it. A scope or graphing meter would be ideal in this situation . A volt meter would have been misleading . Diagram is always a key component and should be looked at as a road map before even going near the vehicle for an electrical problem. Let me know if I missed anything there

[@peterdatechmen5506]

Probably my only question is why they would call you out at 11+ for a solution, when it's been in the dealership for 4 mths? I just organise them to be transported to me the next day. Must be a story in that! Nice work as per usual and an amazing calm late at night, flat battery, dodgy weather? away from your family.

[@cbsctomh]

I got 60 ohms on the DLC Can hi and can low pins, 120 ohm resistors are good but my wave forms do not mirror each other, they both look corrupt, Powers and grounds are good im going to disconnect modules and clean a couple grounds and see if I get communication from ECM before I replace it. Thanks for your vidz, You handle your content LIKE A BOSS, Keepem coming Keith.

[@Micko350]

Keith, do you find it annoying that you take the time to read these comments & go to the trouble of replying & helping them out & they can't be bothered to let you know how they went?!

[@CleanSC]

Keith, great job. Don't worry so much on the cinematography, as we're all here for the content and the lessons. You're doing just fine, keep it up. This kind of stuff is fascinating. Interesting notes: This car only has 50k miles? Granted it's ten years old but even that's too early for module failures. I suppose it IS a GM after all. Or, the ODO is wrong due to cluster replacement or something. Dealerships. Wow. I'm starting to think they are one of the last places you want to go. The level of incompetence is so high, yet it's the most expensive place to take your car. Insanity. I can't comprehend that they had it for 4 months. Anyhow, great work, keep it up, and don't forget to keep that "licensed" tool on your person!

[@NewLevelAuto]

+CleanSC Security vehicles generally do what? Gotta think about clues when they are available

[@CleanSC]

They usually patrol at 5mph during an 8 hour shift. ;) Let's assume that's true as an average, and do some math so Ivan is happy. Not accounting for extra mileage like take-home cars, hot pursuits, and trips to the donut shop. 5mph x 8 hour shift = 40 miles per night. 40 nights x 365 = 14,600 miles per year. 14.6k x 10 years = 146,000 miles. Of course we're assuming a lot here, but we're still missing 100k miles. ;p We'll just call it a lesser used car in the fleet. Either way, 50k is too damn short for these types of issues! Do you get a lot of Asian cars for example with these types of problems? In my opinion, these types of failures are not acceptable and seemingly prevalent on the domestic stuff - which is most of what we see on your channel and Ivan's when he visits you.

[@NewLevelAuto]

CleanSC one last part of that math . GM likes to perform an abs system check at what speed ? 😁

[@CleanSC]

Good question... But... If the car doesn't start, does it matter? :p If a tree falls in the woods, does it make a sound? :D Hahaha

Great video. Like how you always use the B.O.B, Im looking into getting one soon for communication issues.

[@daveyio87]

Great video! Electrical is tough to diagnose with out experience, I remember when I started out learning I had something of a similar issue and I figured out on my own with class 2 was to jump each terminal like you did to see what was communicating and what was causing the issue. I even learned that sometimes you can save yourself time on GM High speed Lan using a 60 ohm resistor and disconnecting modules that have a terminating resistor in it to see if communication is brought back online by jumping the + and - lines with the resistor. Also used that method to bypass a customers malfunctioning onstar module that they did not want to replace because they don't use it but they wanted their car fixed!

[@jamesh6229]

much appreciate the video Keith, I've worked on vehicles late at night before also, sometimes it has to be done. I am not too sure I would frequent a dealer like that who just throws in the towel and says junk the car.

As always keith, very interesting and again and I learned loads, thank you.

Great video bro! I had a Saturn vue with a bad ABS module that lost comm. intermittently. And that car came from the dealer too. The same module that you are changing I change. I guess those ABS module have problems. You need to go home and stop working night. 😁😁 And I should take my own advice too. 🤣 I like this video. Keep them coming.

Keith and you wonder why we like communication issues.. Look at this issue,So good I need to watch it again and take notes.lol

[@lissosiziba6258]

Hi Keith.. I have a 2003 Buick Rendozvous replaced alternator and battery was completely drained now the car has disabled starter and fuel pump. Any idea how i can enable this issue pld

[@NewLevelAuto]

That would be Immobilizer issue , attempt to crank and let go of key leaving it in the on position for at least 10 minutes. Attempt again after cycling the key off . If it still does not restart perform this process 2 more times
