@Schrodingers Box just want to say a sincere thank you for the diagnostic knowledge you share here on youtube for free. I first discovered your channel in 2013 or 2014 when my 2001 S-10 was running horribly yet showed no DTCs & I had no idea what was wrong. My first instinct at the time was...you guessed it...to replace the plugs and wires, which would have done nothing. What I learned from watching your videos back then (especially the Diagnosis & Understanding Fuel Trims series) helped me diagnose the problem & get the truck back in tiptop shape without throwing parts at it until something worked. After successfully diagnosing & fixing my truck I started watching every video you published and taking notes like I was back in school. The things I have learned since then from watching you and a couple other youtubers (Scanner Danner & Eric The Car Guy) have helped me to become a pretty good diagnostician and save myself, my friends, & my family a boat load of money.

Nearly got caught out on a 2 wire sensor myself last week, I automatically assumed it’s not digital even after consulting a wiring diagram showing it had a 12v feed, my thought was nah digital 5v luckily when I hooked up a scope to a good sensor surprise surprise a digital signal 🤭. Interestingly I was going to check the resistance of the coil first but have since read on picoscopes site that you can damage a digital 2 wire sensor if you do that 🙄 Happy Christmas 🎄

With a little practice with the newer "2 wire Hall Effect" sensors you will see the best approach isn't to use AC coupling, it is to use DC and rely on the full capabilities of the scope to show you the voltage changes. (Not all scopes are created equal and that can present a challenge that may force someone to test differently) Some of these sensors operate on as little as a 1/2 volt change and what this allows is to have a system that can detect any wheel speed down to 0RPM. With these sensors, you can make a full rotation of the hub just to make sure that all of the teeth (or magnets typically imbedded in the seal) are intact and then from there you only need to rock the hub from an "on" to "off" position. Here is why to test this way. Let's use a system where the reference voltage is 11v and it pulls the reference down to to 10.5 volt to make the signal when the wheel or magnet is near the sensor turning it on. By manually turning the wheel to the "ON" and stopping which is the 10.5v, the wiring harness and connectors can now be manipulated to see if the circuit can be disturbed. If there is an issue the voltage won't stay at the 10.5 and could go up to the reference, or go to 0v. Just wait till you get to play with some of the newest designs, some of these can even determine which direction the wheel is rotating. BTW, the comment about resistance checks not being valid is correct because of the solid state electronics inside the sensors, which of course is why the best routine is to measure the voltage just like the module does..
@ProperRepair3 жыл бұрын
Great video (as always)! But is it possible that the original sensor is good? Perhaps it just doesn't work with this car (different supply voltage) or with the original bearing (wrong distance from the reluctor)?
@SchrodingersBox3 жыл бұрын
Unfortunately not because it did not produce a square wave with 12V applied and the reluctor spinning. It was the right sensor for that bearing, it just didn’t work. it’s possible there was an open in the wiring harness and not the sensor itself though.
@peterclayton43853 жыл бұрын
Great video, Matt. I was under the impression that because inductive type wheel sensors generate their own voltage that the wires connecting to them would not carry any ‘base voltage’ when probed as there would be no need for signal or power to the sensor if it generates both itself?
@SchrodingersBox3 жыл бұрын
That’s not always the case. (great question by the way). Most inductive (variable reluctance) sensors do indeed have a bias voltage. It’s a DC voltage of usually 5V but can be up to 12V. The AC voltage generated by the wheel movement rides “on top” of the DC bias voltage. The purpose is strictly for diagnostics by the brake computer. If the computer detects a change in the bias voltage it can code specifically for a high or low reference voltage which helps you identify if you are looking for an open or short on the circuit for that sensor.

it will but not nearly as well as the legend or pro. I believe the original vantage you are referring to is the MT2400. It’s really more of a graphing multimeter than a scope by modern standards. it’s enough to get away with at first but you’ll really want something with more speed plus I am sure it’s only single channel.

@SchrodingersBox3 жыл бұрын
Yep Krystal is right. If the resistance test shows a bad reading the sensor is bad however if it shows a good reading you cannot be sure it’s actually good. This is why you seldom see me do resistance tests. As I have improved my skills I have realized they are very seldom applicable in definitive diagnoses so I rely more on voltage drop or functionality tests. I used to do resistance tests all the time as a beginner but now with more experience I realize that wasn’t the right way.

@Kamel4193 жыл бұрын
allow me to attempt to nerd-splain what i think may be going on here :) it sounds like this internally uses an op-amp comparator circuit. what a comparator circuit does is essentially establishes a threshold of voltage for which to compare, then if the input feed is below that voltage it stays low. as soon as it hits the desired voltage though, it flips all the way high. this is useful for taking an analog input voltage and producing a square wave as you mention. if i were building a circuit* (*i am not an electrical engineer, so i'm certainly not any authority on the matter), the reason i would use a comparator is if i needed a higher sample rate than the analog circuit allowed for. for example, say i need to read something that happens 60 times per second, and my analog sample rate is 60 times per second, the circuit would be out of spec. on the other hand, it's not uncommon for a digital sample rate to be easily 4x as much (often, much more than 4x higher), increasing my sample rate to 240hz, which should allow me to measure 60 times per second. i will concede, a comparator circuit is typically used for finding the higher of two input sources (hence the name, it compares the two inputs), but the same principles are at work so there may be a better term for this use of an op-amp. still, based on your description it smells like an op-amp is in use internally in that sensor. i'd be interested if anyone could weigh in on the matter, very curious!

8 channel scope I bought off Amazon. Its a Hantek for less than 100 bucks. I did buy the low amp clamp, inductive pickup and a couple other things to connect to it though, so about 400 altogether. But this thing is coming in extremely handy. It will never be a Pico but its great to learn on. Here is a bunch of links to things I tracked down that work with this Hantek. I do not and am not affiliated with any of these products. Hope this is OK to post on here Matt? It took me a couple days to research out the test equipment that would work with this scope. I really like it so far. Just trying to help out people that might be interested but don't know what to look for.
