7 MECHANICS FAILED TO DIAGNOSE THIS CUSTOMERS VEHICLE

[@RobertAdam-e7r]

I was a technician many years ago when the top tech was electronic ignition and krypton analysers were massive. So I am appreciative of how far technology has moved on and the skills needed to rectify faults these days! Great videos. Keep up the great work. From a fellow Scot down south.

[@williamconnor7249]

a rare find indeed .. young man you are the benchmark of what can be achieved if you apply your self pay attention to detail and your training to end up a highly professional customer focused ,puntual and presentable and .whoever schooled you should also be given a shout Fill yer boots kid 🏴‍☠️

[@annsmith8000]

Hooray from NZ, great work man! 75 year old mechanic here, all I I know is my apprenticeship started in uk 1964 and you never stop learning. Well done for your awesome content thank you. Best regards.....Rob

[@RBcymru]

Always good content showing common faults. Really good repairs and we could do with technicians like you down south as many main dealerships haven't got a clue. Keep up the videos.

[@teamgas]

I had a similar issue as your first van on my 2008 Nissan interstar this winter. I followed the same process as you and replaced the abs pump which did not solve the problem. I evenly found the actual problem which was the female connectors between the loom block and the abs unit were loose and not making good connections.

[@mrsiborg]

I love fault finding videos, really informative mate.

[@michaelmayo3127]

It's so refreshing to see, that there is; an auto electrical fault finding mechanic, that really knows his job. Your videos are very informative 👍👍👍

[@mrautoservices7354]

Thanks for your comment Michael

[@Dashfixer]

we had this exact same reading from the same model van last week and after trying 2 aftermarket wheel speed sensors and then a dealer one with no results we compared the original sensors with what was being supplied and found they were very different, we took the part number from the original sensor and got a dealer one again and were told by the dealer this would be wrong for the vehicle as they are sided (which is nonsense) we fitted the sensor and it worked fine, so check the part number of original...

[@normanboyes4983]

A real pleasure to watch you work through the process.😀👍

Thats great @dord thanks for watching

These videos have made me want to dig deeper with checking for wire breaks bad voltages and so on as usually I would only do mechanical work but nowadays car wire looms are giving up more and more! Can’t count how many times a customers has wanted me to change his alternator and it’s a broken earth wire lol.

well done everyone!!!!! Great day. Glad to do our bit!

[@OveEriksson-jj8op]

I'm realy impressed. Very good fault finding procedure.

[@petergrinnell2500]

This is why i gave up being a mechanic as everything is to technical and electrical 20 years ago and just carry on with welding and fabrication as nothing on vehicles are simple any more and built cheap but fair play to you being a young bloke in the trade 👍

Fantastic mate, I don't live too far from you. I will give you a ring when I need help. I had several problems with a car I had (both electrically and mechanically) and at least five mechanics couldn't diagnose it. Spent ££££s on it too then ended up scrapping it. Keep up the good work!

[@elwoodwilliams-k1n]

You need to purchase a power probe or a similar tool that lets you apply 12 volts and/or a ground to a circuit instead of using that jump box. Makes your life & troubleshooting much easier to ensure wiring integrity. .

Yas… 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 just came across your channel & your not far away from me, wondering if you could help fix abs control module fault on 2011 Passat B7.. Not used it much, been sitting for good few months with flat battery then this control module fault appeared in Address 53: Parking Brake...01316 - ABS Control Module 013 - Check DTC Memory..... Also same in Address 44: Steering Assist ....01316 - ABS Control Module 013 - Check DTC Memory Address 03: ABS Brakes .... 03842 - RPM Sensor Rear Right: Incorrect Signal 000 - - wont clear... Any help would be much apperciate checked fuses in engine and all look good

[@stevemcevoy5628]

Most of these garages now a days if the diagnostics don't tell them the faults they haven't got a clue

[@bosivain]

Great info as always i work mobile like yourself I noticed you use hella for your wiring diagrams I have all data and auto data but thinking just to have the hella what’s your thoughts on it? Thanks

[@mrautoservices7354]

Hella is great for diagrams, Anything else like locations etc all data is better I like Hella gutman alot 👍

[@Manxlad]

Know your basics, I wonder if the 6 before you on the nissan did not want to condemn the ABS pump as its an expensive part, and did not want to take a chance

[@stevecansfield4648]

Great videos, how would you have diag the Abs sensors on the Nissan if you you were the first to look at it

[@mrautoservices7354]

Typically if it was both rears the chances of both being faulty are slim. I would have done the wiring load tests and put a sensor simulator on them to see if live data picks up the info

[@johng.1703]

I didn't realise spud from trainspotting had gotten into mechanics.

655 is default value for faulty control module 10 second diagnosis

🤣🤣 If it was only that easy, it also shows default value like 655 when unplugged too so not a 10 second diagnosis buddy…

[@andrewwilliams4678]

Whereabouts are you based

[@pfsantos007]

With a bulb like that, is there a danger of overloading a circuit? Would an LED not be safer? I always worry I'll fry something (no oil needed)!

[@mrautoservices7354]

The circuit was disconnected from the vehicle side. Depending on the type of circuit you can use different current loads Leds draw very minimal current which is why higher current/load is needed for true figures Cheers, Ryan

[@gerardkelly1191]

Very good, but I'd just add that anything under 12.4 volt and the battery is finished.

[@stephenmoore9691]

Don't put you diag box on the steering wheel if the air bag goes off for some reason you will be left with serious damage to you face etc.

You say at the end of the first job, with abs problem. The only option youve got is to order new abs unit. Was that a lucky guess? I think your better than that, maybe you were up against the clock.

[@julianlangdon3456]

You only have a suspected bad ABS pump on the Nissan; you've not confirmed it. Diagnose Dan would confirm the pump's bad before ordering

The abs pump is bad… Wiring checks complete and sensors were new from previous garage No more testing can be done that would conclude otherwise, Thanks for watching

[@BernardSamson-hf6fc]

Why didn't you use volt drop on the earth, that is the proper way to diagnose it. One lead on battery Earth, the other on Engine, any volts showing, means bad or broken earth lead.

[@mrautoservices7354]

Could have very easily done that, Either way awards the same outcome.. Bad earth ! Thanks gor watching
