Awesome series Will. I love the tenacity you have to make the right diagnosis every time. See you soon !

[@robinsonsauto]

New Level Auto thank you Keith means a lot coming from you!!

[@heavylead1961]

hey keith, we need a guy like you here in denver co!

[@billrimmer5596]

That was a super complete and comprehensive video. I really appreciate the way u scoped out the commands of the computer. And isolating the problem. I had same issue and did not have the skills and understanding I have now. It was a few years back. Your wife is amazing. She never complains when u tell her what to do. Turn this. Start that. Hold this. Wow. Most wives would rather b on facebook holdng the couch down.

[@chrisfreemesser5707]

Because there was something wrong with having a simple cable running from the accelerator pedal to the throttle, we now have to deal with all of this silliness. At this rate my next car will be pre-1994 so I don't have to deal with stuff like this, lol. And kudos to Tammy for recording this in the cold and dark!

[@josholson5015]

Chris Freemesser these are actually simpler than the older style. Those used an air bypass around the throttle plate with an idle motor. They also required a separate unit with another cable to pull the blade open for cruise control.

[@robinsonsauto]

Chris Freemesser lol I can’t blame you at times 😂 now the damn door handle broke this morning

[@chrisfreemesser5707]

So your Ford is literally Fixed Or Repaired Daily? :D

[@shawnmrfixitlee6478]

Can't get more real than that .. LOL.. Watched them both , It happens every day to folks everywhere . I still love the old cable setups .. ENJOYED !!

[@Diagnosedan]

Great Video, those intermittent faults can be frustrating😬 Really enjoyed this one, fantastic step by step analysis💪

[@robinsonsauto]

DiagnoseDan thank you Dan!!! It’s great seeing you hear!! Means a lot I finally added washer fluid 😂and now it’s running great I Appreciate the kind words and feedback

[@robertkosovich1232]

retired electronic service tech, just subed, liked, after reviewing your video! Nice troubleshooting!

[@robinsonsauto]

Thank you for the kind words!! Means a lot!

[@billk5727]

Great video, smooth diagnostic procedure Will ! I like the way you cover and explain all details of a failure. You can't beat it !!

[@robinsonsauto]

Bill K thank you!! I’m glad you enjoyed

[@wyattoneable]

You spent some long hours on that one. Man, that cold looked brutal. I appreciate that you dug into the motor a little, enough to know what part we can call.

[@robinsonsauto]

wyattoneable thank you for taking the time and I went even deeper lol but the video was getting long.. I will be done editing the In shop testing soon

[@jimferguson7503]

Great job and in depth electrical diagnosis guys. We never had these issues with cable controlled throttle bodies, but alas, electronics have taken over, sometimes not for the greater good or dependability!

[@PaulysAuto]

You're awesome for digging into this in the cold. I learned a bunch from this video, thanks for sharing this with us!

[@elcheapo5302]

Very thorough, Will! My curiosity would get the best of me and I'd clip the multimeter leads to the motor terminals and slowly rotate it by hand, just to see if it has a dead spot in it.

[@robinsonsauto]

El Cheapo thank you!!! Very good suggestions I can do this👍

[@feeneysmechanical6215]

Great job. Love watching and learning other tools on how to perform a process in troubleshooting.

[@fire7765]

WE appreciate auto technicians like you.

[@robinsonsauto]

gto 55 thank you!! And I appreciate all of you as well;)

[@RJMaker]

Oh yeah, can't wait for part 3.. Thats when the knowledge hammer is going to drop!

[@wysetech2000]

Nice job, Will and Tammy.

[@robinsonsauto]

wysetech2000 thank you!!

[@dryan8377]

Thanks so much. I really needed this today. Wish I had your digital tool set.

[@danman9017]

that diagnostic was done very well.it is important to realy know what was wrong.thank

[@robinsonsauto]

dan man thank you for this positive feedback!! I agree 100%

[@bestcarsfor5grandsorunder530]

I’m having same exact problem same car. Thank you so much. I’ll replace my throttle body and see how that goes. Thanks alot

[@dc5723]

Awesome Video Will and Tammy!

[@robinsonsauto]

RareDiamond Ching thank you 😊

[@daddyjay319]

Mark the motor turn the motor a couple of times to clean up the brushes and reinstall the motor 180 degrees off .. if you really want to get into it drill two holes spray and blow them out .. Double check with a labscope for current draw . If ok reinstall .. I had to do that with my chevy when throttle bodies were $500 .. ..

[@robinsonsauto]

jay cruz great suggestions and I’m sure this would work out well!!! Thanks for sharing

[@edsendlak8160]

Great job Will !! Appreciate all your hard work

[@roadkill5333]

Dang Will! I didn't know you were still stuck in that Walmart parking lot! I wish you had said something. I would have come got you.

[@roadkill5333]

Give me a couple of days, and I'll be right there!! wink wink

[@robinsonsauto]

roadkill5333 I put out a help video 😂😂😂 just playing but I bet you would have came 👍 thanks for stopping by

[@Airman..]

Good job nailing it down

[@joebush5463]

good diag starting to like that scope

[@robinsonsauto]

joe bush thank you! It’s a great grab and go option

[@deshawilliams8648]

I’m going through this RIGHT NOW . Just finished the first video WISH US LUCK 🥴😭😩

[@tonybarrett7227]

Me too

[@kramos182]

How did you fix it?

[@rabbon-ithegenesis7169]

👌🏽 nice detailed work sir. 👍🏽

[@flatratemaster]

Great video Will!

[@robinsonsauto]

Flat Rate Master thank you Mike!!! I finally changed the oil 😂

[@jdtractorman7445]

Curious to see what the price on a new one is.

[@danielerevia6225]

I’m looking into that scope. My work isn’t really setup for laptop pico setup

[@robinsonsauto]

Daniel Erevia I must say I love the convenient grab and go of the Micsig~ would like to get a pico for the shop to play around with. It’s a powerhouse with lots of resources Wear the micsig takes a little know how but very user friendly.. they also working on some automotive presets I’m looking forward to this.. however I have not used that software update yet

[@danielerevia6225]

robinsonsauto thanks for the Reply ..I was looking at the Uscope to learn on since had presents but it’s been on backorder for several months now

[@monsonlockandkey]

I'm so confused. It wasn't actuating because it was currently in fail safe mode shutting it off completely. So no, it will not actuate with that code on. It sensed a high voltage at one time turning the code on and shutting it off. Also why is your multimeter in continuity mode? You weren't checking the resistance.

[@v4vauxhall498]

Hi Will , power up the motor on the bench ?

[@robinsonsauto]

V4VAUXHALL absolutely;) we will play with this 👍 thanks

[@spiderdad00]

awesome video great learning

[@bodgitandleggitgarage]

1st BOOM

[@robinsonsauto]

bodgit and leggit garage 👍 lol sorted bam

[@randykelso7213]

My ford freestyle would run but wouldn't go past 2 rooms no matter what now it won't start do u think it's the throttle body

[@markferraro5250]

great video Will thanks

[@Therandomchannel666]

I'm having the same problem with my Grandmas Ford 500 and I'm hoping that changing the Tps will fix it hers has like a 1 to 2 sec.. delay between pushing the gas and it responding and the car runs horrible won't idle and just falls on its face

[@kdmq]

Is APP 2 a substituted value? I notice it doesn't agree with APP 1 and 3, but never has caused an issue.

[@josholson5015]

Stepper motors might be ok for robotics but overkill for automotive (just a guess). I think you might be on to something with the commutator.

[@robinsonsauto]

Josh Olson you have good assumptions. Hopefully the tear down and testing helps us understand more

[@jeremyd6607]

Whst was the problem? I'm having same problem

[@stoplookinent4791]

This video is old but do you remember howd you got it out of fail safe???

[@Noneya-rh1gi]

So I'm interested and looking at getting a Micsig automotive scope but had a few questions maybe you could answer or do a video on it's functions. Does it have guided test? Does it give you any know good wave form patters for tests. Is there anything that you consider a down fall of it or a great selling point?

[@mikecont9742]

Great Video....

[@JoseRamirez-ie2bk]

So I have to buy the oscilloscope battery separately?

[@throttlebottle5906]

put low voltage dc in series with motor and scope, turn it very slowly and watch scope screen, I'm betting it would have made some very ugly lines of brush/commutator death :)

[@mechanicandskills7215]

That black cover too the throttle body reminds me of a bad relay thous 2 female silver prongs get hot then seperate from the male prongs long enough to throw the computer in fail safe....but not relay knowing ill just finish my donut and coffee...cheers..

[@Only1trueGOD]

DC Electric Motors will on occasion get a dead spot in them, I've seen it happen!

[@robinsonsauto]

Only1trueGOD good point and thanks for sharing!

[@oneeyedcat3072]

im have the same problems with mine right now it let me sit over a month ago

[@uGoGop]

Remember the plastic toothed wheel that controls the butterfly is subject to heat and cold disintegration too. At 100k, time to replace the motor & plastic gear, however now that Bosch and Hitachi equipped units now use china suppliers go ahead and replace with new $65 units. The same machinery used in Germany Italy & Japan is now used in China. Sad how the hedge fund globalization movement is adding to the slave worker economy.

[@feeneysmechanical6215]

You need a under the hood light. Mine I got from mac tools and it will use a 20volt dewalt or mac battery

[@feeneysmechanical6215]

I also bought a miners light like Ivan's but made by coast. Got it at home depot

[@feeneysmechanical6215]

Look into the Em112 from mac tools. You will love the colorful display. I have one for doing service calls at night.

[@daddyjay319]

Umm I always checked it in bidirectional mode ..

[@roadkill5333]

FIRST, TOO! BOOM!!

[@robinsonsauto]

roadkill5333 👍💪🏋️ sorted

[@scuba422123]

open in the motor contacts I would have taped it a pain but it got you home! good vid will

[@GamerDud2003]

I'm just saying right now that whining noise is not right I own a Ford Five Hundred (with 210,000 miles) which is pretty much the same car as the freestyle just not a hatchback these CVT transmissions are known to have a Input shaft bearing failure especially the 2005 models you should definitely recommend a transmission fluid change to the costumer

[@throttlebottle5906]

meh, that's typical ford power steering pump whine ;)

[@RJMaker]

LOL, Did you say "It's nippley out here" @4:32... A little Chevy eh...

[@leonardobaza]

Where you at will?

[@throttlebottle5906]

[@quintonburkham50]

Why would you not just buy a brand new throttlebody

[@jamessmith7615]

Get details of the CRP429 kzbin.info/www/bejne/iZiZp52joKaDnbc
