Crazy Cluster Toyota Camry - Part II

[@kenmohler4081]

I would never have thought the ABS module would have caused these symptoms. But that’s why I am watching these videos instead of making them. Thanks, Eric!

[@MyMeade12]

💯

[@tjroelsma]

It makes sense: one module that sends out crazy data on the databus can and often will disturb communication with other modules and therefore cause the ECU to report all kinds of errors.

[@donmunro144]

I had an f150 that wouldn't run because the abs module was bad. Had an awful time diagnosing that one.

[@rickscott7350]

When it comes to network communication, anything is possible. I had a radio control panel take down a whole buss on a 777 aircraft. It was supposed to be a recieve only from the Main computer to the Auto pilot, radios, radar etc. But we had a Control panel that had an error in it and it was feeding a signal back on the buss. Took me and 3 other techs the better part of 12 hours to find it.

[@Zach-k2p]

It makes alot of sense. But it’s only that way cause I been turning wrenches for 23 years. Think of it as your body. If your toe is broke your whole body is affect. Same with cars with modules and computers

[@TreyCook21]

I can't believe the module caused all the paint to slide off the front of the car! Bonkers!

[@j.r.3215]

🤣🤣

[@Echo024]

I got my start in automotive by watching SMA several years ago. Just the other week I diagnosed and repaired one of these with this exact same issue - really cool to see this repair come full circle!

[@GdeMarco787]

Yeah. Sure you did.

[@Echo024]

@ Thank you for the condescension but I’m the arbiter of my own reality.

[@stevewhite3424]

​@GdeMarco787 You still here troll?

[@anthonycox9470]

Did this very thing on my BILs 06 Cobalt in a parking lot of a McDonalds this past summer because a field ABS module took down the CANBUS and caused a no start no crank. I was channeling every once of Eric O in that parking lot that night haha

[@johnmckamy6398]

My 86 year old mother says oh your watching "cutie pie" again.😂

[@subzeromjc]

Calm down Mom we are here to learn.

[@COBRO98]

"That cutie pie on the KZbins"

[@Paul1958R]

😆

[@johnandersen6364]

Retired now but, thanks to Eric I find myself saying, "that's interesting" and the all time favorite, "that's your problem lady!" mostly to my wife while working on her car from time to time. Not to mention Eric's torch skills and a well placed hammer brings me back to the days working in the shop.

[@rickrogers2649]

Good post sir. Fellow retiree here and I agree, Eric O. is an absolute artist with the gas ax.

[@rogeryanez8107]

SMA one of the best automotive repair channels out there hands down.

[@jimandnena4]

From Texas: all y'alls yaw gotta be calibrated. It's the law of the yaw. Learning and laughing, my 2 greatest pastimes. Thanks for both!

[@peterhodgkins6985]

Another amazing feat of mechanical magic! You get more done by accident than most people get done on purpose. Nicely done once again.

[@CurtisLee-z8u]

I had to send mine out on my 2013 dodge ram I had to send it to Idaho and have it rebuilt come back in five-year warranty and it works perfect. 400 bucks with shipping.

[@elmerchrisman7683]

I used have to change those when I worked G.M. but not many . I was a electrical troubleshooter. I have been retired now since 2010. I enjoy watching your videos you are a hello of a mechanic.

[@23billd]

Impressed that a 17 year old Camry keeps running in the Rust Belt. They were exceptional cars!

[@markh.6687]

21 year old Corolla still running in the Rust Belt here.

[@theroyaltyautoservice]

Great video as always!! Ready to see you hit that 1 million subscribers! So close!

[@ducky1496]

We replaced the ABS modules all the time at Volvo. Great job again Eric O!!!

[@davidbeachel]

Great job Eric.

[@DavidMarr-z3r]

Definitely a fan. keep bringing them like this. I really enjoyed it. You guys are the best!

[@harveypaxton1232]

On a lot of Ford F series (early 2000s), I have just gone through the PC board and touched up the solder joints. Most of the time it is where the coil connects to the PC board.

[@Jeff-gr1on]

down here in Texas you just gotta pray that you don't set off the yee haw sensor

[@wadepatton2433]

Cruised my local junkyard today rockin' a SMA hoodie.

[@markh.6687]

So, you like cruising junkyards, eh?? That makes you a "partophile".

[@kidwelldavid6136]

Good fix sir. You sound better today. Glad you’re feeling better.

[@rayleonard21]

Great 2 parter. Thanks for another great one!!

[@SouthMainAuto]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@stu8575]

I hate it when Schmutz gets into my car parts! Thanks for allowing us to follow along with your Diagnostics! It really does help. Happy Thanksgiving!!!! 🦃🦃🦃

[@vicferrarisgarage]

Thats a cool Deer assault pin you have there!!!

[@danlemke6407]

Best in the bidness! Thanks Eric, I would've been lost.

[@stevenclaeys6252]

Thank you for another Great video. Cheers

[@JoseSilveira-newhandleforYT]

Great job, Eric! The used module did do the trick 🙂

[@brandontutt1256]

Works for 2002 silverado too, ive done it

[@45AMT]

I've done the GM ones this way. Also those you can take apart and resolder the relay.

[@rtz549]

OTC makes a spring loaded clamp that goes in the door jam to silence the door chime when the door is open. SKU: 4448

[@NiallWardrop]

Are those things required for inspection in the US? We don't have them in the UK and if we did I'd be disabling the thing on any vehicle I got as they seem really annoying. They always seem to work on any modern vehicle in YT videos so I assume you're not allowed to not have them.

[@philipmackin1025]

@@NiallWardrop Disable while working on the vehicle, not forever

[@NiallWardrop]

@@philipmackin1025 I realise that. I was wondering why people don't disable them permanently. I know the door is open, the big hole is a bit of a clue.

[@rtz549]

@ not required but at the same time; people don't disable them either.

[@wyattoneable]

I hope your family had a good Thanksgiving.

[@johndesaavedra1040]

My guess was the ABS module going wonky, however I have never seen a Toyota module fail. That gaping hole knocked in the front put it on the level with GM.

[@daviddamico4288]

Great job Eric…

[@KenOcon-uz3dl]

If you can do it, I can do it! Thanks for the advice.

[@kevinboggs4171]

Happy Thanksgiving Eve

[@rodneymiddleton9624]

Fixed a few of those with the bad module! Thanks Eric O!

[@sspnugen]

As usual you can’t beat a Toyota Camry

[@timowallin8020]

Yeah haven't yet seen unit(in EU) that you cant buy controller wo hydraulig part, but maybe Toyota has one.. But yes bleeders are great and what is even greater is that its getting more common for ABS module to leave break fluid pressure on some second longer on some lines then other. Witch makes leaving the lights fun! Example if front left and right rear are on and you accelerate q what happends ;)

[@ronallen6578]

Start getting some Corvette videos ready. Yea, I just ought a 2011. Be talking to you 😂😂😂😂

[@gregorythomas333]

Thank you for the update and closure :)

[@PeteKnoerzer]

Aw man I like the ride arounds

[@keithnsearle7393]

Another good fix. Thank you for showing us mugs on, maybe, what the cause is and how to fix it.

[@Micko350]

Eric they're a very common failure over here in Australia, especially in the "50 Series" Camrys! I can usually buy a Whole damaged Camry from the "Raffles" over here for what the "Wreckers" want just for a second hand ABS unit!

[@ronwatson4902]

Nuther goot one. Thank you.

[@danwaterloo3549]

nice work!

[@bobby9195]

Did some learning about can- bus crap, don't know about the year or make,but found out that the last resistor in the can-bus wires is in the ABS module. 😅 Learn something every day and I don't even work on cars much 😅😂

[@davidellenbaum1229]

i use a bendable carb wrench works great

[@pmkstudios]

That has got to be the shortest sma video ever. Roomies G Caravan had no heat. No parts required repair unless you count topping up the fluid and cycling the control panel hot to cold and back again. In some cases I really can do it too!

[@keithbailey1118]

For some reason, when you say dremel tool ,the Ai on my phone started up. I did this a few times to test it, and it worked every time.

[@kevinboggs4171]

Good morning

[@jamesbruno5896]

Nice repair!

[@TheWhale45]

Had problems with these back in the 90s on wrecked cars. Toyota tried to blow it off. But there was no exterior damage to them. Ins Co told them they were going to request a ruling from NHTSA for a recall. Suddenly Toyota started warranting them. lol Had the same problem with Hyundai on their mufflers and cat converters. Hyundai started paying for them too. It's always something.

[@jamesu]

Thanks Eric. Have a blessed Thanksgiving

[@wallingj68]

It's the great ABS module Charlie Brown! Thank you for another fun head scratcher. Happy Thanksgiving to you and the family!

[@CedroCron]

If that car could talk the stories it would have... It has "Seen some things" for sure... Good job on getting this beater back on the road again to beat it some more! 😂😂😂

[@JoshWard-g5i]

I'm a New Yorker I sure hope Mrs O knows how lucky she is....I think she does!!!

[@Dirtyharry70585]

Eric looks like major snow in your neighborhood

[@codo7]

Dont feel like it is a boring vid as you said in numero uno 'crazy cluster'. You wouldn't have known to at least go to the ABS without the scanner...but yes, do a visual inspection first. After watching a hundred or more of your vids I know it's sage advice...due to wisdom...

[@glenharper3136]

Thanks for the video Eric.

[@gregoryhohman3511]

I always enjoy the trip to Wilbert's Pick and Pull... I look forward to your videos, assume Wilbert's didn't have the ABS for the Toyota. Eric, I think you should branch out to MotorTrend like Derek from Vice Grip Garage did, I'm sure the MotorTrend audience would enjoy periodic drop in from Mrs O, and the Garage Kitty.

[@carlbyington5185]

OH ERIC, My shop is here, up and plugged in and up in California... would ya stop making fun of us !! LOL, Love ya.

[@donniev8181]

Bet you were happy not to have to change out the entire unit! It's weird that this issue did not affect starting the car. Another great video! I hope you and the family have a Happy Thanksgiving, don't get too full lol.

[@johnnysechrist6313]

I'm sure glad my shop wasn't in the rust belt....NC was a great place to live....I retired to Kentucky.

[@jamesroberts807]

Best way to test it, stall it up and let the trans- brake goooooo lol 😊😂

[@JackdeDuCoeur]

Nice work

[@PhillipBailey]

Excellent!

[@ejwxb2561]

Nice - well done Sir!

[@andylowe2725]

In Australia, they change the SBA module.

[@revbikerbigd8664]

2014 f150 5.0 code 1440 means replacing HCU for abs , bad inner pressure switch !

[@UberAlphaSirus]

Never buy a renault. We got it for a song because Electroinc E brake last year. Remade 40 joints under the seat. Last week weird cutting out issue, more bad electrics. Somebody been at the fuel pump and I got me a new fuel pump pliers tool they left behind. Just sitting there. they done the old rip tie hold her in job. I cut the fecker socket open and off and soldered that fecker. Golden now. I was amazed how long it would run with just fuel residue pressure with the pump off. almost a minute, and no codes whatsoever.

[@jerryking2418]

Way to go Mr.O. I'm a poet and didn't know it.

A pain in the who-ha = a trip to the chiropractor.

[@Astrand1]

What could be better than thanksgiving left overs and a video from Eric O! On the youtubes 😆

[@UberAlphaSirus]

on good thing about the UK not bothering to salt the roads now I guess

[@davidstreling3690]

would have been nice to see if you could have opened the electronic side of the module to see if the surface mount parts had been soldered properly it has been mentioned that is usually the reason for the abs failing and yes i have seen that a lot of surface mount parts not being soldered due to unknown reasons

[@markh.6687]

Toyota’s are one (1) of two (2) Brands you Spend the Dollars on Repairing because of High Reliability. I’ll let Viewers figure out the Other Brand which is Clear. 🤔👍

[@1320pass]

Aw man, I wanted to see you bore around the yard and test the ABS.. 😂

[@JOHNSUE28]

Eric Nice case Study and Repair. You are on your Game, Sir!

Ivan from pHAD posted the same repair video a year ago.

Still waiting on that 2nd 🦌video. 😀😀

[@johnhufnagel]

you even picked up an extra module on the low speed group.

[@bass69player]

The problem with "Members Only first" content is that there are spoilers in the comments for us lowly NON member. Not cool.

[@mattmanyam]

Do you get $2 a month of value from these videos? Of COURSE you do! Problem solved.

[@HarrisFS]

So long Toyota Camry, we hardly knew thee

[@michaelklein95]

Mr. O love the videos! Been a sub since before 100k. What model Autel are you working with?

[@christopherwatson283]

What happened to the bolt you made the pen out of? I made some arrow pens. They disappeared. I've been thinking about making a couple more. Brings back memories of Archery Clubs and Tournament Shooting. Cool Vid.

[@LostInThe0zone]

Replaced that module twice in my S10. I never had that odd instrument panel behavior though. Just an error code.

[@carlbyington5185]

You know the "Automotive Rules" ... you don't say "I think it does" before doing it, it's automotive bad luck Eric, you know that !

[@eddiekilby]

You make me so glad I don't live in the rust belt😁😁😁😁

[@mrpiccolo23]

Do you keep the pump portion of the salvage abs module in your spare parts stash or chuck it?

[@Paul1958R]

@2:08 There should be TWO hood struts. The driver side is missing

[@CCscott]

My who ha is sore from eating too much Thanksgiving and lounging around.

Most bleed screws will come out easily if you tighten them first
