Jake, you are a good man for trying to help us technicians out here! It used to be that people didn’t want to be giving away their information because they thought they would be helping their competition. There’s so much work out here now and so many people there, there’s not enough techs that know this information! You’re a great tech, and we can’t express enough how much we appreciate all the hard work you put in to help all of us! Many blessings to you and your family Jake! We especially appreciate the programming information and circuitboard information. God bless your family Jake!

[@mikechiodetti4482]

The final outcome was bad, but watching you remove and calibrate the prom on that TopDon tool, then go through the initial programming was GREAT! you've got to know what your doing and it's obvious you're on top of all this. Good One!

[@GregoryJones-px1hr]

I know this is an old video Jake but I love finding these hidden gems you’ve put out that I somehow missed! 💪🏾

[@donthebrain]

I’m very impressed. Wish I could do half you can do.

[@craiggoodwin9704]

Jake, all that work but no cigar in the end. Oh well, maybe next time. Thanks for Sharing!

[@OzMechanics]

Good video. Got to love global a vehicles. Ran into a 2018 Denali that wouldn’t start or program due to all used modules the junk yard put in, throwing nothing but identifier codes. That was a fun one. Keep up the great work

[@Jpilgrim30]

That’s one reason I love the Andromeda Labs AR32A for eeprom stuff. Never an issue reading/writing in circuit and it saves a lot of time soldering. Just have to have a laptop with a full size serial port to use it. Good job sifting through the madness on this one man. You gotta love the project cars 😂

[@bobbywarthan5173]

I bought one several years ago,I love it

[@abdullahal-maliki5318]

I've read and heard about people verginizing GM modules using GM development programming system or DPS V 4.2 or newer. Have you tried it before? And do you have a copy of it that you can share with us? Thanks for the great info in this video

[@marlinyoung1606]

Wow thats crazy! We had a guy tow his car to the shop yesterday for a steering and suspension evaluation. Go to start the car to pull on the shop and the engine has 0 compression on 3 cylinders and 30 PSI on the other one.

[@yamaha37776]

You know, you can take a car out of the bone yard, but you can’t take the bone yard out of the car!! JUNK!! Great video though!

[@advancedleveldiagnostics]

Great video, Thanks for sharing! Good catch on finding the engine locked up before spending countless hours!

[@PineHollowAutoDiagnostics]

Cool experiment with the virgin EEPROM! What blows by mind is that you can't program a key with the HVAC module offline... Like what the heck 😆

[@truth4reel]

@@autodiagyt funny thing is even the hvac store environment identifier it won't prevent the vehicle from starting, whereas a ebcm could

[@DTEAuto]

What a mess for sure, never ending.... thanks for bringing us along

[@arthurfricchione8119]

Well Jake guess that would of been nice to know in the beginning. Just take the payment and run. Never know what your going to get. Thanks for sharing Artie 👍

[@russellhltn1396]

Well that was a crazy turn of events. I know you ran with what the customer told you, but I have to wonder if some preliminary tests shouldn't have been done first before spending all that time. Or perhaps checking as soon as the rust started to appear.

[@paulpaquette1961]

Hindsight truly is 20/20!!! Wow!!! That was quite costly for the customer. Their choice. Nice job!

[@sheerwillsurvival2064]

Sing the song take it too the junkyard take it to the junkyard one last time 🎼🎵 new eagles song. Great job programming you are the man 👊🏻

[@Grunter123]

Good one Jake as usual, thanks for sharing.

[@paulspeller968]

well there is a thing 🤣🤣🤣🤣 but at least you had a bit of fun doing some programming experiments with out to much risk of messing up the car . and learnt a couple of things on the way . nice job my friend looked like there was some fun to be had 👌 even if that car is off to the razor blade making factory . pity would have loved to seen that run if the engine was not junk 👍

[@Hybriddiag]

In autorepair world there is no way cheap..whenever customers go that way it always winds back to more expensive track😢..great work and cheat through unnecessary technical barriers..cheers

[@blucollarron]

You sir ,are amazing ! Sucks the engine is locked .

[@GreyRockOne]

Oh bummer.. My first thought at the beginning of the video, check the engine, the heck with the modules..

[@mikeantee2733]

Was a good video and great information .. back to the junkyard where it belongs😂😂

[@PaulCTownsend]

That's quite of a turning event there oh my goodness.

[@mikeburdi3464]

Another great one Jake! Hopefully you'll get paid properly for your work, time, and knowledge. If not, the title might be a good option, lots of LS motors would fit perfectly in that bay. I was wondering if you have any information or feedback on the Enigma programmer? Something I have been thinking about for a couple of years now but it's expensive!

[@truth4reel]

Great video. Have you, successfully, attempted to program with the MDCI on GM vehicles with SPS2?

[@truth4reel]

@@autodiagyt there is definitely an issue with j2534 claim of the product. Supposedly the engineers in the USA are working on it. I ended up getting a Mdi2 as well.

Hey mate can you put the virgin eeprom file for the BCM in the description

[@b1llyw123]

Thanks for this video helped out a lot , I would love to have a virgin bcm eeprom file in my book of tricks i deal with a lot of auction cars at work and this would be helpful. Any chance of sharing the virgin file or know a website to find virgin files?

[@autodiagyt]

Send me an email

[@alexandrumardare828]

Could you just take out the obd plug and read it with topdon and then just plug in gms one without it canceling the update?

[@autodiagyt]

I think that’s what I did

[@autodiagyt]

I can’t remember but yeah that would work.

[@JohnDoesGarage]

A man after my own heart. I too take jobs that I know I probably shouldn't take. I guess I like the challenge, or maybe I'm just a glutton for punishment.

[@robertroberts2484]

Have you run into a BCM that won't setup? 14 Sierra new BCM, programming went perfectly but setup won't run. Keeps giving me brake pedal sensor won't learn and won't go through rest of setup. Any advice would be appreciated.

[@autodiagyt]

Are you pressing the brake pedal?

[@stevemazzarella7212]

That was cool!!

[@trmclaren]

Those are the worst when it ends up like this with customers. Still gotta charge though.

Good morning Jake, If you don’t mind me asking, how do you like your Transit Connect? I’m thinking about purchasing one (used) to replace my Super Duty due to the extra miles I’m driving. Thanks brother!

@@autodiagytJake, what year is your Transit Connect? Thanks again!

[@djosbun]

@@autodiagyt Thank you, Jake.

[@cyberslacker5150]

Could have also been just a blown seized motor and not a flood. If it's a seized motor only, it still has hope. The owner can get a cheap motor at a cheap junkyard and install it himself or get a cheap mechanic. If it was indeed flood, then the motor is seized, the transmission flooded too, and the computers are all oxidized, and the connectors, etc. It's done for. You can check for flood if it has signs of mud or water intrusion inside. Or inside the motor too.

[@aymenmohamed1134]

Wow

[@joshclark6101]

Man if someone could do a video on how the computer car computer thinks and operates and what information goes to what part of the computer and all that it would make programming a lot more easier to understand

[@bobbywarthan5173]

Every car is different,that's the easy answer

[@marcokahny709]

Think it would be easier to take the engine out and put it in a boat 🤪

[@marcosmateo8439]

Few Mins in i Said “Slooowly walk away…” And minute 25 🤯🤬🤬. Dang Sorry man.

[@russellhltn1396]

I'd be looking for a different EPROM programmer rather than being tied to your scan tools. No need to connect to wifi and you can name the files anything you want.

Fantastic job, Jake! Unfortunately, for nothing - that car is an expensive brick. If it wasn't for what was learned and the virgin eprom data file, this would have been a complete waste of time and money.
