The fact that you didn't stop looking after finding that hose disconnected shows the quality of a mechanic that you are, great job homie.

[@Volusiaev]

Being a Tech is like being a detective. Another great video brother.

[@locoparentis244]

Homie, you totally helped me fix my Colorado! I had a P0174 that caused a Check Engine light, and was about to make an appt to see the dealer tomorrow, when I found your video trying to debug this myself. And sure enough, in my 2020, I found a vacuum related hose that had fallen off, right underneath that big plastic engine cover. I knew to look for it, because I used TorquePro app, and an old OBDII BT transmitter I happened to have around from years ago. And I saw the Fuel Trim levels were doing just like what you showed in the video! Anyway, I snapped on the tube (it was never on all the way due to a retaining clip probably that made it need some force to snap on), watched the Long Term Fuel Trim go back under 10%, and then removed battery from the system for a few minutes, reattached +12V to battery, started car, and Code was resolved, Check Engine light off, test drive good>> SO thanks!

Unbelievable, I was trying to get my emissions and eng light came on! Found your video! My hose was disconnected too! Same 2 codes. Cleared them truck is fine! Great video bro. Thanks

[@debraduperroir7513]

Thanks for this video. That was the problem I've had for a while and it was JUST that hose. Engine light went off by itself after I reconnected the hose. THANK YOU!!

[@deweyarnett556]

I had the same thing wrong with my Colorado it was kinda hard to get to but I finally got it connected and I erased the code and the engine light went out THANKS great help from so far away thank you !!!

[@keveldinho]

Followed this video to a T and found the top hose you first found was disconnected AND my fuel purge canister valve was defective because had suction on it. Thanks! Ordered a new one, Hopefully those two fixes helps with the terrible performance of my canyon!

[@HomieHektor]

Let me know how it goes 👍🏼

[@keveldinho]

@@HomieHektor the trucks way more responsive now, I find it actually finds a gear and downshifts easier, before it would sit in 5th gear when doing 25 mph and almost stalled anytime I gave it some gas to accelerate. Thanks!

[@chasem7295]

You get a subscribe for this one. Had my 16 Colorado serviced for the HVAC blend door/actuator 2 days ago. Check engine popped up today with the same codes. Looked under the hood, and there it was.. disconnected hose. Now i need to figure out why they pulled the engine cover off.

[@jeffiannotti]

Thank You!!! I got the P171/174 as well. Turns out I had a different but similar hose disconnect from a loose clamp. Exemplary job/video that pointed me in the right direction

[@hassana7413]

Just used this video to fix my boss truck. Awesome job 👏 great video

[@unclened6394]

This hose was not connected on my 15 gmc canyon. I reconnected it, still has the engine light on. If that solved it, should the light go off on its own or does it need cleared? Truck was also stumbling a bit on acceleration at 20-40 mph. Hope this fixes it, thanks for the video. Very informative.

[@sugarfree6251]

Keep making these videos, very educational during this pandemic, quarantine, corona virus chingada.

[@gregmacdougall528]

Awesome Video - Thanks! Was getting same Codes on my '15 Canyon, did not know where to start, same Hose was popped off. Figure happened after getting my Oil Cooler Lines replaced (which I was not keen to tackle)...

[@northrow2199]

Hoping this will be the fix for me. Found the same exact hose disconnected. Will have to drive it a bit for things to reset, but I'm hopeful it worked! Either way, I completely missed looking for that hose being disconnected and this video brought that to my attention. Thank you for this video.

[@unclened6394]

Did this fix yours?

[@roachbeatz]

@unclened6394 yes! (I am the original poster of this comment as well, I am just logged in on a different device)

[@unclened6394]

@@roachbeatz did you have to drive it awhile for the code to clear? My code is still on and still stumbling

[@roachbeatz]

@unclened6394 I dont remember if I drove it and it went away or if I reset it with my obdII reader.

[@monstersquashracing]

Great work as always. Thanks for the cool content homie.👌

[@popz5518]

Good video. I would have reset the trim first and then moved from there. Either way you followed thru good diag.

[@ujash2003]

Great video, keep teaching us 😎👏

[@stimpmeister]

Now I know why tire discounters quoted me $270 to replace the spark plugs in my 2016 Colorado. Dealer price was over 400! Because they have to takeoff that cover as well as the intake to get to one stinking plug.

[@michaelpicozzi3910]

Very good video thanks a lot

[@myronbenally9521]

This helped alot, thank you for the video

[@JiggaJ1979]

I had the same code but mine was actually pulling vacuum from the purge with the purge unplugged. Working for GM the engine cover is a pain, great vid tho

[@juniors9699]

Homie keep up the good video

[@xtraCreamcheese]

Hello Hector, How do you like the Autel scan tool? Napa loaned one to my shop for a week or so, I tried it a few times and I couldn't really get the hang of it. Have you had experience with it compared to a Snap-On scanner. How do you feel about it? I did just go back to the snap-on scanner but the Autel's still catch my eye and have me intrigued for certain....

[@HomieHektor]

Team2na I own the Snap-on Verus but then shop has an Autel. There’s been times when the Autel comes through when the Verus can’t. Like everything else it takes time to get used to it, but IMO It’s a great scanner. If I didn’t have the Verus i would’ve bought the Autel 🤙🏼

[@xtraCreamcheese]

@@HomieHektor Is there an Autel you would suggest as a "do it all" but no BS Scanner? I dont need anything unnecessary, but I wouldn't want to be under-equipped.

[@WizzRacing]

I actually had this happen to me on my own van..The damn hose in the intake come off. When I put the throttle body air intake on...

[@Kstllanoscastellanos]

Hey Hector can you tell me where is located the High pressure pump in this truck please?

[@dariendrake]

hey dude great video! I have a 2016 Colorado 3.6L and I just had the adventure of changing the spark plugs. lol dumbest design ever! why chevy didn't shift the throttle body over to the drivers side 1 1/2"-2" I will never understand. To take the front passenger side spark plug out you have to remove the intake plenum.

[@americanmade9002]

Great vid

[@ericjudd9603]

Man, changing the spark plugs on a 15’ Colorado is no joke wtf chevy

[@562racing7]

Hello i have a question, i have the same codes and i don’t see any hoses that aren’t connected, but i went to check that purge valve because i can hear a hiss from time to time and i heard the purge valve hissing and i took off the same hose you did and it like got air and turned off, do you think that maybe the problem?

[@willmullins5913]

I have a 2016 colorado 3.6 and my purge valve is making a loud ticking noise and I unplugged the connection to it and it stopped. Is it bad to have it un plugged and drive the truck?

[@betancourt73]

O2 sensor bank 2 to lean is showing what does this mean? Is my truck safe to drive?
