Automotive Diagnostic Podcast

This week on the show I share a case study that follows up from last week on a 2017 Honda CRV 1.5L turbo that would not start at times, and start but not idle at others. The shop had recently replaced the cylinder head and the engine was running prior to the work. The timing appears to be correct and no codes will set.

This week I'll follow up on couple vehicles from last weeks episode. The Maserati no-start and the Volvo rear hatch issue. I'll also reflect on a very challenging week I had doing mobile and how it's a contrast to what you saw in last weeks episode. Mobile isn't always a gravy train!

Join my me as I take you along with me on a full day of mobile diagnostics. The recordings are from throughout the day at each stop I made. From a Hybrid Camry HV isolation fault, to a Maserati no-start, this day was full of interesting vehicle issues. This episode is much better with the video, see the link below-

This week on the show I'll talk about Ford programming and some issues we run into and what we've done to solve them, including an issues on late model Fords that can take the majority of your day to resolve. The tools we'll talk about are, IDS, FDRS, Forescan, I/O Terminal, and other cloning software.

This week on the show I share 2 different vehicles, a 2012 RAM for a year ago that had what I thought was a unique one-off problem. Last week, however, I ran into the exact same misfire issue on a 2010 RAM. Join me as I walk you through the symptoms and what went wrong on these engines.

This week on the show I have a 2016 Chevrolet Silverado with a parasitic draw that kills the battery overnight. Come with me as I find the source of the draw along with the actual cause. Remember, the component that's drawing the current isn't always at fault!

This week on the show I answer a listener question about brand specific network diagnosis. I focus on the big 3- Ford, GM, & Stellantis. What are the scan tool strengths? How can the diagrams be used to your advantage? What other resources are available in service info to assist?

Quite often when attempting to diagnose vehicle issues, we are challenged with understanding the strategy used by the control module to access a circuit or component. How does it assess the circuit? When does it do it? What specifically will satisfy the module or cause a fault? Can we substitute something to satisfy the computer?

This week on the show I share a 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee that has a radio that will not adjust the volume, a Terrain switch that doesn't function at all, AND seems to have two different VIN numbers. Is the VIN mismatch the cause of my problem? Is this vehicle stolen? If not, can these issues be corrected through programming?
