Having that 'spare' saved you much messing and toil; nice 1 Peter. Was half expecting water in that converter location, ya know, like VAG! 🤣

@@petecurran3995 that is the beauty of being at these Mazdas all the time. I’m stuck for absolutely nothing, thank god 👍👍

[@iangraham6730]

Brilliant work Peter! Top class as always 👍👌 I'd love to get into that converter and try locate the actual component thats causing the issue from inside it, probably something silly like a popped smd capacitor or diode 🤔

@@iangraham6730 I wouldn’t be very good with that kinda stuff Ian but I’ll check to see if I still have the old unit on Monday if you like to have a look at it 😉

@@kennedysgarage3281 Cheers Peter! Yeah I'd be interested in getting inside for a snoop, you'd never know, might get lucky 🤞

We're getting in the "flux capacitor" zone these days! 😂 on the next one check also the nuclear reactor in the back of the car 😂 so you can go "back to the future" safely!! Nice job!

Hello Kennedy's Garage, very good job, what year is that Mazda?

[@colinblythe3710]

WHY ???? do they invent silly systems like this Mazda engineers must all be on drugs - OR have it in for mechanic's !!! All this start stop rubbish - to save a thimble of petrol - But they have to use gallons of fuel - to mine tonnes of copper - to make the part to save the petrol !!! LOL clown world GREAT VIDEO PETER - THANK YOU

Great job boss

[@kennedysgarage3281]

@@JattaVictor I did slightly struggle on this one. It was the first time I had to figure out about DC/DC converter location etc. But we got it resolved, thank god 🙏🙏

[@anthonycampos4071]

Did you do a voltage drop test from the alternator to battery? I have a voltage drop of 3.5v with car off, and around 2.5v under load. I found that the drop is coming from the DC/DC Converter which makes me think I need to replace it, but I cant find much info on the part.

[@jamesward5721]

I think you passed the hint in the first scan of the DC/DC system Peter - output current pid was at 0. Look back at the footage :-) Maybe when the other stuff got changed someone dun goofed & the control module got lightly toasted?

[@jamesward5721]

That's another yoke to go on the "disconnect this before doing any stuff to the capacitor thingy area!" list..

[@mihais7183]

Just out of curiosity how much is that DC/DC converter in the main dealer and how much did you charge your client for it?

[@kennedysgarage3281]

@@mihais7183 unfortunately I didn’t price it new. But at a guess I’d say around €1500 new. I charged €200 for the used DC/DC converter
