[@windward2818]

The motivation for LIN was the basic challenge of replacing the seemingly ever increasing number of wires (and subsequently the size of the connectors which also costs money) to save weight, complexity, the wiring itself, with a low cost solution that allowed expandability (vehicle build features or options) without needing to install, and logistically support, several different wiring harnesses. The wiring harness would remain the same, with only the node functionality changing. To minimize the cost (and size) of a node was a huge challenge in overall architecture and led to the creation of a smart node. Basically a single IC that provided all of the electronics to run the node, which included the bus interface and decode (performed in a dedicated state machine and not firmware, at least for the dumbest nodes) the power supply, inputs and power outputs to control the loads. The reason LIN is not as "robust" as CAN, as stated in the video, is cost. The question posed to the engineers developing LIN was; what is the minimum number of wires to support a low cost node. The answer, as you can see in the video, is three; Power, Ground and LIN. I lot of work went into LIN, both in engineering approach and in demonstrating a basic feature set a minimum cost. A lot of OEMs did not immediately understand that the benefits of LIN actually pay for themselves, until studies where undertaken to understand all the actual costs of each feature and feature option (or potential upgrade after delivery) which was steadily increasing, and was needed for the OEM to stay competitive in the market place. One difficult cost to quantify, and that had much higher assembly costs than first thought, was the process of installing wiring harnesses and how the grater the size of the harness the much greater the time it took to install correctly. Handling large harnesses during production is very difficult and labor intensive. When wiring harnesses reach a certain diameter (many wires in the harness) they become almost impossible to route quickly, a lot of force is needed to place and bend the harness into a channel or clip. Another cost that was not usually included at first glance by the OEM at the system level was the cost savings in smaller connectors and connector pins (reliable connector pins are expensive), which can cost more than the wire itself depending on wire length. The system approach to LIN actually was taking shape as CAN was being more widely adopted and becoming less expensive. So what you find many times is an automobile architecture that uses CAN for latency (communication speed) and LIN for cost. For example, if we look at a door node, from a latency standpoint CAN makes sense for communication from the door to the body control module, so coming to the door you would see 4 wires; Power, Ground, CAN High and CAN Low. Form the door main CAN node (perhaps located in the door switch panel) to the other door control and features you will communicate using LIN with 3 wires; Power, Ground and LIN. For a generic dumb LIN node, the IC operates in a standard way (both for communication and control) and does not need to be programmed (the program is hard-wired in the device), which lowers the overall development cost. It is not like a traditional module where you have to write and install firmware (software). However, even the programming LIN nodes have dropped so much in price that it is now an option, but at a higher cost.

We know a car won't start in D or R!

Yes shorted cells in a battery is a common failure.😉

I have come across a shorted battery. The way i found it was the battery kept discharging, i did a parasitic draw test and it was 50 milliamps so i disconnected the battery from the car after charging it and left it overnight, in the morning the battery was dead so it had an internal short.

[@donalexey]

You have to connect spark plug into cigarette lighter socket. It gives 20 km/h more to the maximum speed. How LIN master module knows that the slave is not responding? Is there a time division?

[@Diagnosedan]

Yes the slave should respond to the master, and if it doesn't the master sets a code

[@svennomore729]

LIN usually has 2 types of messages from the bus master: command/control message and diagnostic message. The master requires a slave node to respond to a diagnostic message by sending back diagnostic status. The master in this case will not get that message back since the lin wire is not connected at the mirror end. When the diagnostic message is sent by the master, it waits a specific time for the response. If the time is longer than expected, eventually the master sets a fault

Placing a SLAVE in the mirror housing is a poor design(susceptible to water intrusion) Easier just to have slightly longer wiring running straight to the door control unit which is located in the door. U only saving approximately 30cm of wire which is still much cheaper than a SLAVE unit. Don’t you think ?🤔 BTW Love your videos👌🏼

Maybe you are right but there is always going to be electrics in an electric mirror. So it should be made water tight. I think this mirror might have been damaged in the past because it's not a common problem.

To find where sparks are made in the tesla you have to get at the so-called "battery-pack" in the floor. It's hard to open due to a design floor, you have to work really hard to open it, then you can find some well-secured cylinders all through it. Get on of those and open it, hit it with a chisel and hammer while a friend lubricates it with a fine water mist from a spray bottle. Then you will know whether the one you picked makes the sparks - you can't miss the clue.
