Thanks for Watching!!!

[@DaleHegland]

You can't beat the satisfaction of winning!!! Awesome job!👍👍

[@StewartLandandCattle]

Finally a guy that has realistic timelines on troubleshooting!

[@alanwilson1365]

Very happy you got it running and really enjoyed watching you work through the problem!

[@larryklostermann5779]

Awesome job Ross! I am so glad you got your pickup running. You deserve a nice pickup.

[@chuckk458]

Woohoo! I’m so glad you got her running!

[@pagrainfarmer]

Good deal! I knew you would prevail in the end. It's satisfying when you discover what's wrong and solve the problem. Hopefully the truck will be on the road soon. Great buy!

[@stew6338]

Well done, yeah this is when you need the factory manual. It gives you connector type and location. Good spotting of that damaged wire.

[@podexperfectussum]

Reminds me of a south main auto repair video, "three other shops couldn't figure this out. I moved some plastic junk out of the way and found a broken wire."

[@jonathanfrecking1210]

Glad to see you got her running Ross! A couple more odds and ends and you'll be driving her around!

[@jonathancrissinger2301]

Absolutely awesome job. You made out like a bandit on this one. That book was well worth the price.

[@corydriver7634]

This is Watch Wes Work territory, nice work Ross. Persistence pays off, You’ve got a nice truck there!

[@apollorobb]

The Shield wires on the fuel pump power wires is for Noise as the Fuel pump motor makes a bunch of electrical noise. And the shield keeps that noise off the data line to the ECM .Glad to see the ole thing running again.SEE

[@AllanHanscom]

Perseverance pays off, can't wait for the next video......don't keeps us waiting until next year😂 😂😂

[@texasj49]

You certainly persevered on this one! Nicely done, Ross!

[@keithwuchter624]

Great video Ross. Great job tracking done the issue. Now you really got a super great deal on the truck. Congrats on figuring it out.

[@Bowhunter2500HD]

I keep smashing the like button but it will only let me like it one time instead of liking your video 1000 times. Great job Sir.

[@jackbraithwaite8345]

WOOHOO! Congratulations Ross. Looking forward to taking a ride in your New Ride! 🎉👍💪🇺🇲😉

[@DonWelter]

Frustrating when you have to go through all the commotion sometimes to get something going. With today's electrical wonders tracing a broken wire, etc. is no piece of cake. You got a belated Christmas present, a running Super Duty!!!

[@JoTa8389-gu9vi]

Good job tracking that down and in a place under the air filter box that looks like it is one of the most protected place for a harness to be.

[@stephenheyes4324]

Ross well done perseverance sure paid off you got a great truck

[@johnkissack5295]

Congratulations!!! Great job figuring it out!!! Now let’s take a ride!! Thanks for your on the job training in mechanics!

[@mjbirdClavdivs]

FET is a Field Effect Transistor which is a transistor that can handle a lot of power without being large. Great job finding the ONE wire that prevented the whole shebang! For use in cars, I would recommend a butt-splice then put hot melt glue on either side of the splice, THEN heatshrink around the entire mess to keep it waterproof. Especially sitting under the fender-based air intake.

[@phillipnysewander8928]

Congrats on getting it to run!

[@crazydave4455]

Nice job Ross! Had this playing in the garage while I was soldering patches in a mouse chewed wiring harness 😂

[@craigrasnic4178]

That’s awesome, I had total faith in you getting her figured out

[@ollie-lk5dx]

That book was worth every penny!

[@benbusfield6498]

You could splice it to itself there is a small tool you can pull that pin, cut it back connect a new piece of wire put a new end on it and pop it back and put it back together. We did that all the time in the dealership I worked for Ford for a long time, real common to snip it back, jump it together, put a new end on it, pop it back in the harness.

[@FARMALLHmodel]

Great job, Ross! Been pulling for you!

[@Lynnsle]

CONGRATULATIONS! I knew you would get it fixed!

[@jslade60]

Congratulations we need to get lucky every now and then!

[@oldasdirt1909]

What a great amount of detective work. Did I miss a bunch of animal sounds? If not I think I would include a few because I could feel your pain trying to get under the truck.

[@michaelshingleton1628]

Liked watching this one. Watched wes work where he had a dodge with a broken wire which took a long time to find. Might be a good truck now.

[@WisconsinOliverNut]

Wow, one wire! Nice job getting her going!

[@earldoubet8062]

Heck yea that's great you found the issue can't wait to see ya drive it and cleaned up . The title plates insurance. Do a fluid change on front axle t case motor trans drive it around the farm for a week or so to see if there any more bugs in it . From turkey creek farms be safe n thankful

[@SA-76234]

That’s awesome. Can’t wait to see it on the road again.

[@chadshafer8095]

Glad you got it running.

[@johnnylobster2749]

From Rhode Island , great job 😅 in joyed watching the progress glad you have a running truck

[@opasvintagegarage]

Ok, I'm finally sober from the holidays 😂! You found the needle in the haystack! Nice work, happy new year to you!

[@bobtuckosh9870]

I figured you would find the problem and get it running, great video thanks keep them coming.

[@thomasharrington5369]

Glad you have an inexpensive nice ride. Knew you could do it 👨‍🔧👨‍🔧👍👍

[@mikestewart2409]

Persevere was my old school motto and did you just prove it works ! Great result 👍

[@waggtech4883]

Studying those Fiat wiring diagrams had a hidden payout after all!

[@jorgesaavedra9158]

Congratulations on getting the F-250 running!!!

[@johnnyholland8765]

You are one hell of an detective. All that trouble over one wire. With the rest of the wires being good why would one single wire be corroded? It wasn't anywhere near anything that would leak on it or get it pinched. Go figure. Glad you found the problem. You worked on it long and hard enough. Hope it will be a good runner for you.

[@robertclements7835]

Great job Ross.

[@user-ik7od5qo7y]

OUTSTANDING!!! Now rip that box off and slap a flatbed on there!

[@martymurphy7477]

Way to go it's a runner .. cool video

[@utahbrumley7473]

I knew you could do it! Great job on diagnosing and those factory service manuals these days are worth their weight in gold lol. It's a nice truck! I keep looking around here for an el cheapo lol. I agree with the other comments you deserve a nice truck; just think of the service rig you can setup with that new truck! Fancy boxes on the sides, running boards, big hog catcher on the front lol! Excellent video can't wait for the test drive video! Hope your feeling better also!

[@chadkalina1257]

Great job on the super duty can't wait to see it on the road

[@super6954]

Thanks for the update. Glad you got it running in the end with only firing a 22 instead of the whole big parts cannon, like some Ford expert techs would of done before throwing in the towel with a $2000 bill. Hope the next updates more good news. Wishing you a Happy new year, take care.

[@kellyschurr3675]

Congrats! Well done.

[@danklinknett]

Awesome!!!

[@dougschmitii6165]

Hopefully most of your problems with the truck are over now! Its great to see it run!

[@terrynoland487]

Excellent video again great job Ross thanks for sharing

[@dongarrabrant6951]

you are livin right brother good job

[@donnieanderson5439]

Awesome Great job

[@ThatOliverGuyChris]

Sah weet! Figures it would be the Barney wire (purple and green) 😂😂😂

[@rosstheoliverman]

Barney definitely lied to me. This wire didn’t love me 🤣

[@ThatOliverGuyChris]

@@rosstheoliverman Counterpoint. That wire loved you enough to give its life so you could buy a dirt cheap Super Duty.

[@rosstheoliverman]

@@ThatOliverGuyChris that’s true. That tiny Barney wire saved me about $15,000 on the price.

[@johnbender1596]

Great to see you have a runner! You started down the parts replacing road, but corrected course by purchasing data that led you to the problem. From experience most often it is something small and sometimes hidden that causes the problem. Life can be like that as well! Happy New Year!

[@waggtech4883]

Now that you have the Ferd mastered… time for a Chevy! (edit: That Vice Grip fella doesn’t have anything on the KnipGrip guy!)

[@thomasharrington5369]

Neither does Watch Wes Work.

[@AngusGilmore-ry6wd]

Great success!!

[@johnziegler3695]

That is so cool it runs

[@garykoerth8563]

I love your patience!

[@markhall7182]

Great job

[@derrickzenner9300]

Thats awesome

[@larrybruck2949]

Your diligence paid off. Good job and have a Happy new year!

[@gleanerk]

Yee hi ! Happy New Year! Happy for you Ross !👍🏻🇺🇸

[@catdog8641]

It's reminds me of working on the neighbors. 2004 f150 after watching 3 videos of not starting. I cleaned and remounted two ground wires on the door pillers . ( Door pillers rusted out ) and it didn't ground the dash cluster to start the engine. Diagnose - I have learned a good starting point. you can check for power and ground at the electrical device to determine if the part is bad or bad wire. With out a wiring diagram. Thank you for your videos 🎉

[@JohnBryant-qc5zg]

Time to do a little cab cleaning so dad want be afraid to ride in her. Nothing like having a new ride to sport around town! Good job Mr. Ross that ADD comes in handy for electrical issues.:)

[@dougsturgill1356]

Hallelujah Ross,you are the best, super job on the super duty,looking forward to the test drive

[@michaelsheeder148]

Ross, awesome you got it going🎉👏👍 thanks Michael

[@berniemarkley]

Hooray 🎉

[@darrenhawken9766]

Great work 👏 , well done , I bet you were shocked by the result....I bet your wired now ..thanks for sharing 👍💨💨

[@haggefamily1564]

Congratulations. A classic process of elimination.

[@koreymartinson7238]

Nice job on finding the wire! You got yourself a good cheap truck!

[@royhaught9516]

Isn't that the way it goes, one wire away from a nice running truck ... I wonder if a mouse chewed on that wire?

[@dankreoger611]

Awesome

[@curtbrewster8635]

I thought last night it sure would be nice to get an update on the Superduty!

[@100660mr]

Good job man,that's awesome!

[@oldcars5547720]

Absolutely OUTSTANDING!! You have much more patience than I would ever have, attempting to diagnose what was wrong with this. I installed a wiring harness under the dash of my '55 Chevrolet one time many years ago but it was nowhere near as complicated as this fuel system wiring. I really like that old truck and I think it will give you years of good service if it becomes your daily driver. Do you think you will ever turn your attention to that Thunderbird that is sitting in the weeds?

[@jamieebersole6755]

I was wondering what was becoming of the truck. Looks like it is turning out okay for you. Those electrical problems can be really frustrating.

[@bigun447]

I would make a big bet on the fact that some Ferd Technician was chasing a fuel problem and used a test light that hooks the wire and then a pin penetrates the wire to make the test light work. It would have been quick to reach without having to raise the truck to get to the fuel pump control module. Those pin prick testers have been the bane of many problems. On our fleet of trucks, an old mechanic had one and he had the habit of testing the wiring harness that went from the cab wiring junction box to the lights on the back. The more the wires would corrode apart the more pinpricks he made. I ended up buying new wiring harnesses for short semi-trailers and simply replacing the rear harnesses on each truck in the fleet to stop the trucks from getting stopped by DOT inspections for having a light out. You are lucky you did not have to remove a fender to get to some connector. That is a common necessity for many modern trucks, ESPECIALLY to get to the turbocharger (common $5,000 failure on Ferd diesel trucks) on Ferd diesel trucks. You need to get a sticker to put on that truck saying "The Rooster chased the WIREY Fox out of this chicken coop" The Ferd dealership computer reader would probably print out for the Technician where to test voltages. In this case, the dealership would price out a whole new harness as repairs to the wire would be too prone to future failures and also not as profitable as selling a $1,000 harness. You need to get a sticker to put on that truck saying "The Rooster chased the WIREY Fox out of this chicken coop" Now you need to cover your rear end... GREAT VIDEO and maybe you will have a good truck that you can fill with the horizontal surface disease.

[@Kronkus36Outdoors]

Yippppppeeeee !! Good job Ross !!

[@billw4746]

I had faith that you could fix it. Once you had a schematic. Good job

[@AbcDef-iq4no]

Rusty, crusty ground contacts sure do seem to plague late model pickup trucks, whether they are under the hood or on the underside of the bodies. I wonder if all of these contact points used copper or brass wire leads, bolts, nuts and washers this could be avoided. I can't imagine it would break the bank for automakers if they did this. Also, I agree with you that just relying on the areas where threads of bolts make contact is a pretty half-ass attempt at making sure there is a good ground.

[@robertkidder174]

Congratulations, nice job, well done. Hope your new year goes that good for you.

[@JohnBryant-qc5zg]
