Skoda Octavia parking sensor fault, diagnosis and repair

[@Gearhead90]

Boy oh boy you really do make me adore my trade the way in which we have our own wee test techniques and pure skill wee have at this level should be on 1k a week in my eyes 😊

[@kennedysgarage3281]

It is funny how we have to be able to test everything & repair or replace everything 🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️ I just chance my arm everyday and hope for the best 😂😂😂😂

[@remotaurog]

Yeah I don't know how they do it ,I started using picoscope for some tests ,saved me changing a few things .

[@kennedysgarage3281]

@@remotaurog the pico can be essential in harder to find problems, it’s great to see our testing process advancing 💪💪

[@bastogne315]

Those little things can be annoying for the driver and potentially very expensive. Goes to show that mechanics basically need to be electricians as well as everything else.

[@kennedysgarage3281]

More and more everyday. What is also hard to understand is the different ways different manufacturers electronics work. Something new to be learned everyday 🙂🙂

I don’t be at parking sensors too much but nice to brush up on it 🙏🙏

Peter been redlining my Mazda in second and 3rd gear lately on the bypass....seems to have mostly cleared the misfire that was occurring at low revs. Hope it don't blow engine.❤

[@kennedysgarage3281]

Could it have been carbon buildup in the intake ports 🤔🤔

[@bastogne315]

Maybe Peter. There's defo something down there.

Good video Peter always learning,any link to injector puller for Mazda 6 2015 or I'll be using dynamite.

[@kennedysgarage3281]

I haven’t any videos on removing stuck injectors. I have always got them out on the mazda engine quite easily. There are some really good injector removal tool out there and all relatively reasonable. Might be worth a scout on eBay

[@remotaurog]

@@kennedysgarage3281 seen a few on Amazon,yes your right they are reasonable,I don't see a torque for those long threaded bolts that hold down the rubber gasket.

[@remotaurog]

That's great thanks for the info,now I can get on with fitting it properly and not pay Alldata for a month subscription.

[@Jordan-nd7jp]

The sensors all communicate together if one goes down it shuts the whole system down.

[@kennedysgarage3281]

Isn’t that a stupid design 🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️

[@remotaurog]

I'd 11 fault codes from a battery disconnect freaked me out for a min then I remembered some video from KZbin,lol

[@kennedysgarage3281]

@@remotaurogI find KZbin to be a fantastic training forum, you couldn’t believe how many yokes I diagnose while reversing into the workshop from a video I’ve seen beforehand. Cheers mate 🙏🙏
