Thanks for watching!

[@johnnyv7932]

Dude, I'm addicted to watching your videos, seriously. You (in my opinion) do such a great job articulating & explaining details which is why I'm addicted. You really break things down to the most smallest of things that can easily be understood for most. I would really like to see a video that breaks down what everything is and means on those electronic diagrams, I'm sure there's viewers who follow you just great but as a beginner in diagnosticing using the electrical layouts. Would like to learn and understand what all I'm looking at as I follow along. Keep up the great lessons, much useful and appreciated 👍

[@willwillis2381]

Wow, great job guy. You really savy those blue prints. And how the heck did you come to realize the drawing was wrong. I would never have assumed a drawing could be wrong! I'm impressed.👍

[@edwardjohnson1211]

Keep up the good work..I can't believe you didn't fumble unless you edited . Regardless we are human . 10 plus years of watching various mechanics you get the 2nd Addy boy I ever gave out.

[@stephenread6456]

Great video. Most people have no idea when it comes to electrical problems!!

[@spelunkerd]

Excellent troubleshooting, well explained. I found myself pausing the video to think the problem through for myself, then I would resume when I had decided what to do next. Side by side, the Mitchell diagrams are much easier to read, but if the details are not accurate there is a problem. I wonder if those PCB relays are the future, it will make repairs and even diagnosis significantly more expensive. It would have been fun to tear down the old fuse box to see what is inside. Microscopic diagnosis is a whole new field, interesting to follow the new technology.

[@ADVANCEDLEVELAUTO]

I wish I had the time. I would’ve opened up the fuse box. It’s long gone now. Thanks for watching!

[@burtpilon1735]

I like the way you run down the wiring diagram to explain how it flows ... good job and thx for your time 👍🏻

[@ADVANCEDLEVELAUTO]

Thank you!

[@baxrok2.]

Nice diagnosis and explanation. I hope you fixed both of the wires that you cut.

[@tannerjung2305]

Helped soo much couldn’t find a wiring diagram anywhere! Thank you for your help:)

[@simplyjay7252]

i have struggled with diagrams quite a bit but with your guidance in this video it all makes sense.Thank you.Subscribed

[@mikechiodetti4482]

Signal tracing through the circuit. Works every time!

[@alexmockalex]

very informative. I'm an "electrician" in the military so it's easy to follow along on the diagrams. I wish I had access to all of that. I have a 2007 silverado with wiper problems that led me here. unfortunately my problem is a little different so I'm still stumped. the wipers don't return to park. and no matter what intermittent setting I put them on, they run full speed. it seemed like it would be the switch so I just replaced it and the problem persists.

[@daranged5]

Just found your channel and love your videos! Your diag process is helpful and easy to understand. I work on lots of brands and have found many discrepancies with non OE wiring diagrams. Currently I'm at a transmission shop so I'd love to see how you go about dealing with sensor/solenoid/internal faults, particularly on Japanese brands. Thanks for the quality content!

[@andrewk778]

Great diagnostic video. Very well explained. Thank you for sharing.

[@ADVANCEDLEVELAUTO]

Thanks for watching!

[@montehyler]

Great job on explanations. Clear and easy to follow. I always enjoy watching you work through these problems.

[@johnmac9055]

That was excellent. Thanks for taking the time to go through all the steps, explaining the wiring diagram, and flagging the issue on the Mitchell diagram.

[@j.p.matychak1282]

This video is absolutely amazingly helpful! I’m trying to diagnosis a wiper issue of my own

[@MistrMyke]

Nice job explaining. I would have liked to have seen the specific cause of the problem in the fuse box. At least an autopsy on the fuse box after it was taken out.

[@rubengarcia6920]

MistrMyke if he had opened it would see that the relays literally get fat and the sides blow out

[@roxanneabbott8424]

I am learning so much from you, thank you!!!

[@ADVANCEDLEVELAUTO]

Thank you for watching!

[@GlycerinZ]

I love advanced diag vids.. I've only seen a few of your vids but I can tell you're legit, like Eric of South Main Auto, Ivan of Pine Hollow Auto Diag, Mr. Danner of ScannerDanner, Matt of Schrodingers box. Some of these damn dealerships can't even do what you guys do.

[@NeoAndersonReloaded]

They dont give them time to do it.

[@Ottonic6]

I've seen that quite a bit with Mitchell diagrams. That's why I try to get a factory diagram when possible. Don't get me wrong, Mitchell is usually spot on, but I have seen the errors quite a bit. And I was thinking.. It showed that it was on high speed but it sure didn't look like high. then again, that could be caused by under-powered battery. And another great video. Thanks!

[@ivandrago2557]

Man I would be replacing bcm, really smart to cut that wire and prove the short to power in that box

[@Sandman56]

Excellent video, excellent job on explaining everything that went into the diagnosis. Thank you for making this video.

[@JoeBribem]

I'd like to have seen the install of that fuse box wiper controller. Good video

[@jatoca]

Very VERY thorough investigation and near final diagnosis. To be clear, you’re leaps and bounds ahead on the level of knowledge you have compared to me. My personal opinion (as if it matters) is that you went through a whole lot troubleshooting to narrow it down beyond every main component that most would have replaced and failed. But with that said, you were all the way to finding the last tiny puzzle piece and replaced the entire fuse box. Just out of extreme curiosity, why not find the shorted wire? You were literally right there, everything apart, couldn’t be closer, ruled out motor, switches, BCM, loose grounds, replays, etc. and all the way to te final gray wire as the culprit. Why not trace back that one wire? I truly don’t understand! With all that knowledge, access to diagrams, scan tools, and diagnostic equipment, you bought a whole new MAIN fuse box? Please tell me what I’m missing? I watched every second of your 30-minute video, while rare for me to do, you held my interest, taught me a lot, and stopped an inch before the finish line. Honestly, was it more about the billing, or was there seriously too much to go through at that point to narrow down that last piece? When I say “billing”, I mean, a customer might not understand the cost if you charged them $500 for diagnosis and repair of a tiny wire, so better to bill for an entire fuse box so it’s obvious (to the uninformed) that installing an entire fuse box could be very costly. I mean if they watched this video, they’d certainly have realized all the time and necessary equipment required to find that short. Again, very confused if that wasn’t the reason?!?! PLEASE?

[@benjaminhargis8074]

My 2018 3500 6.0 does this too. I’m gonna diagnose it with your video but for some reason switching into and out of 4x4 while fiddling with the blade speeds usually fixes it

[@phatcowboy76]

nice diag. Car schematics are a little different but your explanation was easy to follow. Fairly simple circuit.

[@ADVANCEDLEVELAUTO]

Thank you for watching!

[@nicholaspaul2458]

Excellent video. Like the review of the wiring diagrams and the logic used to understand the circuit leading to the proper diagnosis. two thumbs up

[@ADVANCEDLEVELAUTO]

Thank you for watching!

[@tomnevarez1182]

Great video, I have a similar problem with my wiper washer won’t shut off after replacing wiper motor. Replaced motor because washer stopped working and I knew the washer pump was good got any advice for me on what’s going on thanks

[@mark95b77]

Very good and thoughtful process, much appreciated!!

[@ADVANCEDLEVELAUTO]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@williamguy1932]

I look forward to your videos. You do a very good job of explaining complicated concepts.

[@MrKidd1551]

Exellent the in detail. Never got lost of what u where trying to explain.

[@yamaha37776]

You do really good work! I’m hoping you can do a parasitic drain video. I’d really like to know what tools you use and how you approach it. If I’m ever in your area I’m gonna stop in and say whazzup! I’ll buy lunch!

[@shakeelsss]

Thanks for the wiring diagram training.

[@jum5238]

Looks like you cut a 2nd wire in there too (or nicked it pretty hard). Glad you pointed out the mis-printed wiring diagram. I noticed the slow speed wiper and you were pointing to high speed lines. Those diodes steer power as well, and should be considered. So... did you find the problem? You left us hanging with this video.

[@TheBucktowncrazy]

Thanks for the video I have a 2007 gmc yukon xl 5.3 gas My wipers will not come on. So i changed the wiper motor and assembly (aka transmission) and i changed the multi switch on the steering column and checked and changed the fuses Still nothing Any chance you have a video for that specific problem. I can find the relay. Thanks

[@dunngee]

2000 chevy Silverado wipers frooze to windshield , and died Not the fuse. Tested Motor and figured out if I run a ground from motor housing to ground they run. Got high and low speed but only shut off once turned on by shutting car off . The motor Circuit board Multiswitch Fuse box builtin relay. You'd think this frozen wipers to the window issue has happened alot and point to an issue

[@23thebull]

You're doing an excellent job

[@TheCrazy243]

Subbed! I like how you explain on how wiring diagram work.. you talk kinda fast but im getting better at reading at wiring diagram. They’re kinda hard. Look forward to your channel!

[@laidlawenterprises]

Great diagnosis! Really appreciate the in-depth approach. Liked and subscribed!!

[@lorenzoaojeda3802]

Best explanation ever thanks man

[@braedenengert2068]

This video is so helpful. Thank you so much

[@Raybrysonllc24]

Nice work man that was very helpful my question is I have an 09 Silverado with the delay setting won’t work the cust took it to another shop they replaced the wiper motor the bcm the multifunction switch I looked at the data it does seem to show 1 though 5 on the delay setting but when you operate the switch the delay still won’t work any ideas on that would be helpful

[@angelramirez7747]

Awesome diagnosis!!!! Great job

[@jeffkubos751]

I'm glad I found this channel. Thank You sir!!

[@michaelschmidt7014]

Excellent video, I recently found your site and enjoy your troubleshooting procedures very professional. Looking at all of the muddy water residue it appears the owner may have been out 'weekend muddin' with it and no cover on the fuse block or with the cover in place a poor design by GM to keep water out. At the end you show the NEW fuse block installed with a cover in place. Is this a new cover or the original cover that has been thoroughly cleaned?

[@affragale9434]

Great job on video .. the ground on the motor for the wiper circuit is there a location explaining or easy test that you can do to test ground n if so where is it located ...

[@bobwhite1734]

Great job. did the new fuse box come with new relays. I thought about changing out the 2 relays first. Was that a possibility? i am learning so much from you. thanks

[@hendy4584]

This is excellent and I took a lot away from it but in the end you had to replace the fuse box to repair this and you didn’t actually show that part. Does this mean the entire fuse box or simply the fuse block that the wiring goes to? I have a similar issue whereby the wipers don’t work at all. The motor and combination switch have both been replaced with no change and I have 12V going into the yellow wire on the motor with good ground but no signal to the green or purple wires. This tells me one or both of the relays in the fuse box is no good.

[@skillz1855]

Excellent diagnosis my friend

[@JorgeHernandez-zu7dq]

I have the same problem in a 2007 Chevy Tahoe. What do you recommend I do? I turn off the truck and the windshield wipers stay on.

[@kieranthompson1982]

Just out of curiosity did you hack into fuse box after replacing box just to find the failure? Just itching to know why it failed? Let us know please

[@raedessam]

Thank You Eric , all love to you form your fans in Saudi Arabia

[@ADVANCEDLEVELAUTO]

It’s amazing knowing that people from all over are watching. Thank you very much!

[@allys537]

I'm having this problem with my 2015 Malibu, I removed the wiper switch on the column, and every plug from the BCM, the wiper power relay pin 86 still has 12 volts, closing it to activate the wipers the only thing I can think of is a short to power in the fuse block... Hopeful it works.

Your descriptions/explanations are a bit drawn out. but you are getting you point across and that's what matters. Just need to chill a bit. Is this truck wiring the same as a 2004 gmc sierra 1500 2wd?

[@orinmangar2333]

Eric, I have a question. I want to know which wiring diagram is better between AllData and Emanual online. Also which one is easier to read and accurate. Thanks Orin.

[@amardeepdhaliwal5654]

I'm thinking I have a fuse box cross powering issue. How had was the fuse box after removal?

[@karrieruhl8117]

Do you have to program anything or just pop the new fuse panel in and go

[@JohnDiMartino]

Those fuse boxes fail all the time,I maintain a fleet of Chevy/gmc pickups for a town municipality and I’ve had to replace the fuse boxes on all but one of the 2007-2103s. The fuel pump fuse holder usually melts on them and intermittent issues and codes.....

You've got an awesome channel. Thank you for all you do for the rest of us.

[@gregstrakovsky5008]

Thank You Eric! Great Diagnostic & repair as always! Just curious ... why You do not check signal integrity and PCM outputs as one the fists diagnostic steps? Back in my collage years... 1980s - professors was saying to us: power and ground first, circuits integrity and surface conditions as second and input and output maps and status as a third step than networks maps and protocols consistency. I`m from industrial automation and robotics,.. but cars is practically the same thing - just complicate in the different way... P.S. Very sad... Your shop is far away from NYC and I can`t be a Your customer...

[@catap977]

I have had this come to my shop and all I did was blow out the dirt from the fuse box and they stopped

[@ADVANCEDLEVELAUTO]

Cool! Thank you for watching!

[@k.bellingham8335]

Brian Smith where is your channel?

[@dunngee]

Wipers frooze to windshield they just stopped thought it was the fuse, but no. I ran a ground wire from motor housing to ground without i get nothing. They turn on high and low and the delay works and can turn them off. More often than not you turn them on they work fine in low or high but only stop running if you shut off the engine go back to park. Could this be a ground issue in the fuse panel ?

[@captiannut]

Great video

[@120115135]

good job brother!!

[@devinpalmer2782]

So do you have to replace the fuse box or a 1 fuse?

[@stevewarren3051]

Not trying to be critical but, I think it would be a good idea to seal off the areas of wire you probe by piercing the insulator. Eric O. at SMA seals the pierced insulator with liquid masking tape. Also, I don't understand why you had to cut the wire from the BCM. Why couldn't you just measure the voltage on that wire when the key was off?

[@jerryharris3110]

So is replacing the fuse box the only way to fix the problem

hey, I have a problem with my wipers are not working any more and I dont know what to do anymore also 3 went in 3 services and problem was not fixed. So one morning was alot of snow on the windshield and wipers went on when I started the engine tryng to clean the snow but got blocked. I have cheked the fuse is fine ,checked motor is fine .... what can it be??? please help me!!!

[@dereksimenac8844]

Diagram is right but you kept calling the high speed side as the low speed. Looks like the bcm is supposed to have voltage to allow the park function which is most likely the cause.

[@jam_2315]

I got a 2019 sierra denali and mine go down all the way then barely raise up when I turn them off. So when I crank truck back they wipe one more time then stop.

Hi I have a 2016 3500hd duramax and my wipers aren't working and when I cycle the wiper switch it turns my headlights and I've changed motor before I realized my headlights were turning on with wiper switch
