Years back a person came in with a car for what I do not remember, tune up, something simple. After whatever work we did, we took it for a test drive and noticed the 3 speed automatic transmission was not shifting into second gear, but, shifting from first directly to third. When we informed the customer, they flipped out, blew a gasket and screamed and yelled that we caused the issue and we will be repairing it for free. The customer took their car for a ride, came back, and said it's working normally, what do you mean, it's fine? We said OH! your right, have a nice day, see ya later. They drove away happy.

[@장성배-g2h]

Hi, Eric, I am a GM Technician in Halifax Canada, and I have had two same symptom vehicles and I think they were 2018 Encore. and it was just bad battery. After battery replacement, it became normal, and there is a code for the rear differential and I had to recalibrate the rear diff for clearing the code. There is a unique number for the calibration under the differential 1 digit (Probably from 1 to 9). After replacing the battery and calibrating the rear diff, no more issue. One thing I found is... when I tried to start with booster, the EBCM data shows brake pedal is not pushed even if I pushed the brake pedal, that's why it did not start with booster. However, after battery replacement, it became normal. When we disconnect the battery, it is actually performing global reset, and everything is back to normal, but only rear diff calibration infomation is deleted.(I don't know why, but it is not difficult to calibrate it as long as we know the calibration number. (The number is just near the module, I think it was front left. about 1/2 inch big. Please read GM Service information for this)

[@SouthMainAuto]

Interesting. At any rate I just follow facts. The fact is this rear diff clutch module has a whole rotted through it and is full of corrosion. A battery is not going to fix this one. And you're right, when replacing the rear diff module, you have to write the diff code number one through nine.

My granfather is a certifird Buick repairman, and he suggests the fillowing: Make sure that the two sperving bearings are in a direct line with the panometric pam. That way, side fumbling will be prevented. Also make sure that the main winding is properly being used in the operation of nofer tremlems. That way, wenever a fluorescent score motion is required, it may also be employed in conjunction with a drawn reciprocation ding alarm to reduce sinus-socal depleneration.

[@DuaneDonaldson]

ONE nice thing about GMLAN that the COMM Lines go into and out of a module is you can UNPLUGIT and bypass the module by shorting the CANL PINs & then CANH PINs together to remove a possible bad module from the system for diagnosis. I first learned this on the 15th Street Channel, then the channel went away and it seems back up again OMG. At 15:05 when you check CAN COMM again, you ought to zoom in on the Packet more as typically you can see added resistance in the waveform in the form of slanted horizontal lines, there are a couple of types of resistance but for a connector with some corrosion is typically noticeable right away as a small amount of interference in the horizontal line sections. As your training continues, keep an eye on these slants to get a better feel for the malfunction once found. I did not pay close attention to try to figure this out from your video but initially, you need to make a list of what modules are not online, look at the schematic to see how those modules are tied together, and then make a deduction of where the bad module or connector or broken wire might be located. ONLY A GUESS but you had a good module at the top of CANC (SAS where is it on the schematic?) and the others were offline, maybe the problem is at the outlet of that good module on the CAN Schematic or very near? Most of the circuitry is in SERIES with a couple offshoots based on RPOs. As we already know, one of the CONS of a TOPOLOGY is it does not show the actual orientation of the module relative to the others, series or parallel, this is why the schematic is really useful. Let's see what Part 2 holds. Thanks for all your videos.

[@Parknest]

Eric this reminds me of when I had a faulty differential module (DEM) on my 2003 Volvo XC90. It wasn't working and there were a couple of fault codes (no communication from the ABS & CEM to the DEM) so I just lived with it because the rest of the car was fine. I just had no AWD (all wheel drive). I started to have electrical problems which pointed to a faulty CEM (Volvo's gateway module) so I took it to a specialist who suggested getting the DEM repaired first so I sent the DEM off to be repaired to be told that it was beyond repair so I had to get a reconditioned DEM. Once that was fitted, I had a fully working AWD but I was still having the electrical problems so back it went to the specialist who couldn't find anything wrong with the CEM so I got them to remove the CEM and I sent it off for repair. I took the repaired CEM back to the specialist who refitted it and it has been fine ever since.

[@29chevbolenschannel40]

Thank you for another educational video on how the modules in newer vehicles are interconnected and how to break the system down to determine the problem area. My guess on the Power Steering being disabled is that it has to do with the lack of communication with the offending module - something in the software protocol is causing the power steering to be disabled because the power steering module cannot determine some information it requires to operate safely - engine speed, 2 wheel or 4 wheel drive or ?? Encountered a similar problem on a 2017 Chevrolet Impala that had an open circuit fault code for the left rear speed sensor because the ABS sensor wire was sliced where it went along the left rear trailing arm (no idea how it happened). Car worked fine when I parked it on a Wednesday night but on Saturday afternoon when I started it next got several messages and traction control light was illuminated. Messages were ABS disabled, Service Traction Control (along with a couple of lights on the dash being on), Power Steering disabled and also noticed the park assist light on the park assist switch was not illuminated like it normally would be. Found the sliced wire and repaired and was able to clear the code for the ABS open circuit fault and drove the vehicle a short distance to verify the repair. On startup after the repair the messages disappeared, power steering worked and the park assist light was illuminated again and was then able to clear those codes. Checked service data and could not find any mention of the power steering being disabled or the park assist feature not working with the ABS sensor open circuit code being present but did find mention of it happening in a couple of online forums. The logic on the power steering was that the Impala had variable ratio power steering and since the power steering module could not determine the speed of all four wheels the software protocol dictated that the power steering should be disabled as a safety precaution to prevent over correction at higher speeds - never did find any logical reason to disable the park assist feature - one of those GM things I guess. Look forward to watching part two.

Something nice about fixing something that was working and now isn't means you don't have to fully understand why it's broke. In these faulty network videos you don't need to get a CAN packet analyzer, try to decode the data, etc. It doesn't matter how bad that diff module is broke... it's broke! I'd say this is the difference between a vehicle network technician, and a vehicle network engineer. And you're doing a great job of being a tech!
