HEKTOR!!!!! LOVE that part of your opening credits......good explanation and diagnosis as well as some repair advice and guidance.

[@chekelley6861]

I have a pair of Kevlar sleeves I bought on Amazon. They hook around your thumbs so you can reach your forearms down in tight, hot areas. 😜 they work really well.

Good teaching Hector 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@donotrobme9295]

According to everyone I know who drives a jeep, there are no issues ever. Even when we r constantly fixing the jeep it’s because of “off roading “ and then I politely say , oh it couldn’t handle the off roading , which is a dirt road to campsite, they say it can and it’s an endless circle of jeep perfection with excuses fir every problem which are frequent. Never met a brand of vehicle where owners won’t admit the vehicle just has a problem needing fixed. I don’t care, all vehicles need fixed but find it comical how jeep owners act like your calling their mom fat. It’s like even if it’s a old battery or headlight there’s excuses. Crazy

[@HomieHektor]

Funny but true.

Excellent diagnostic my friend, or should I say homie!

Hello hektor I hope you will upload a video on how to change timing chain for 2011 Chevy Cruze 1.4l thank you Your videos helps a lot

[@castledomeknives9395]

Same ChingaderAA happened to my uncle's tek( 02 Dakota 4.7) I decided to replace both Cam and Crank....POS only works when it wants to... I'm gonna say bad ECM ( they're notorious for going bad) or maybe a pinched wire

[@BEINGOOD77]

Replacing this & camshaft position sensor tomorrow. Oil pressure sensor was damaged, so it too. I've lost a month in wages over these issues. We bought new alternator, ignition coil, $120 battery & a

Thank Hector I have been enjoying your videos , Thank you for posting this video I also have a jeep and have to see if someone had posted a video on my jeep problem, You are the man this is the problem I have with my jeep. You are very educational .

[@Mr831bong]

Hey bro you think having a bad alternator can make my stability control to act up ? It does it after 10 min of driving the service stabile light pops on the dash and the battery light comes on too

[@greghobbs1728]

Outstanding ! Be careful using WD-40 anywhere near plastic connectors. The grease is much better.

[@dannyordonez4427]

What kind of scanner are you using? And will it work on a chevy

[@64impalaSSRealMechanic315]

Hektor when you recording this are you using gopro chest piece or head i got Gopro i'm trying to find out what is easy way recording while working in engine bay.

[@oshkomontes7594]

Hektor, How have you been since getting terminated from mierdastone. I stopped going there for my services. Make an updated video. Happy New Year 2021.

[@Thatjewnick]

Can a bad craftshaft sensor cause a no crank?

[@xaviermcalistersr347]

I guess I'm going thru the same issue from what 3 mobile mechanics told me what else can It be preventing it to start I was in middle of grocery shopping dropped meat off at home went to finish shopping it haven't started in 6 months I need help bad

[@davidgggggggg]

If it’s not the crank sensor check the ECU. The circuit board overheats on those all the time.

[@HomieHektor]

5Volts and Ground were good on this one. Sensor did it.

[@dudeofsteel3118]

Hey Hector, since you answer comments often I'll ask about this problem I've had. My grandma has had this issue where the car seems to perform fine on regular streets until it gets onto the expressway, where it starts to (some days, but not all) to run the engine at a higher & higher pitch as she accelerates... and then eventually the whole car will jolt back & forth & make a *riugh riugh riugh* sound. What could this be? She took it to a mechanic & they claimed it was a shield problem, but the issue persists

[@aayesher9400]

Could be a clogged catalytic converter

[@AlexB-hp3dj]

Anyone who has that scanner should know how to test them already

[@MrElcacheton]

Hello hektor I replaced a crankshaft sensor on a 2012 civic I know still needs to be relearned but I don’t have an scanner,what scanner do you suggest to do that procedure? Am not a mechanic I work on my own cars I do have an BlueDriver one which is awesome but I don’t think it has that feature to relearn sensors.

[@jonomotive2000]

It shouldn’t need to be relearned it’s a permanent magnet either Hall effect or magnetic pick up but it sends a signal when passing through the magnet no relearn required

[@MrElcacheton]

@@jonomotive2000 thanks man

[@zenonsaldana5439]

I have 1996 lexus LS400 sometimes the key gets stuck in the tumbler, if it gets stuck I have to disconnect the battery to pull the key out. I already replaced the tumbler same problem. I need your help. Gracias

[@jonomotive2000]

Look into the shift interlock solenoid

What scanner is that ? Bidirectional?

No humor when you're wrenching on Jeep Junk...Totally missed a "that's what she said" on the "you never want to stick it in dry" 😆
