Sneaky Sensor Causes No-Start Issue On This 600 Dollar Sprinter Van

[@surfreadjumpsleep]

I love the format. explain the mystery step by step. I'm on an older Fiat to cut her that doesn't have any of this electronic stuff and everybody told me that the electronic stuff isn't good but listening to you it sounds really good. Imagine having a computer that will tell you what the injector firing pressure is? Wow. Want.

Getting a descent scan tool doesn’t have to cost a whole lot. I’m glad u like the format. Hope the fiat engine is treating u ok. I’m not a huge fan of those. I’ll have an update on different scan tools and best options soon.

@@sprinterfixYes I think my next motorhome if I get another motorhome would be a sprinter-based one. Although one thing I noticed about your video is that with these electronics you are able to debug a motor situation just by looking at electronics but at the same time you have to debug the electronics. You're not entirely sure if it's the motor failing or if it's the sensors failing.

@@surfreadjumpsleep well yea, thats sort of true, in this case I didn't suspect a blown motor much but I likely wouldn't have spent so much time on it if I had heard a blown cylinder. everyone calls these things unreliable which I really dislike, mostly because they aren't precise in their reasoning, there are a few systems on here which can are a bit of a headache but the reliable drivetrain more then compensates for their those minor hiccups, I'd get a 2007 to 2009 if its your first sprinter

Long story short. Camshaft sensor ground had a break

[@sprinterfix]

haha, nope, cam code caused by crank shaft sensor.

my sprinter is not runing for 3 years, 2 mercedes mecanics. 3 others mecanics and still crank not start .I let you know in 10 min

[@sprinterfix]

I am looking forward to hearing good news
