This week on the show I share my thoughts on exposing yourself to various methods, thought processes, and tooling when diagnosing complex problems. It's easy to stick with what we know, are comfortable with, & what's worked well for us in the past. But we limit ourselves if we don't at least consider other's experience and perspective.

This week on the show I want to share my thoughts on what it really takes to make a diagnostic look easy. At face value it may look like it takes no effort for an expert to breeze through an complex problem, in reality there are countless hours and enormous amounts of effort that aren't visible in the moment.

Welcome to the "Ever since you" Club. If you've been in the industry for any amount of time, you've experienced this. "My rear brakes are grinding ever since you changed my windshield wipers" Sometimes the claims made by customers are really out there. I mean, the vehicle lighting randomly flashing couldn't be caused by a transmission solenoid strategy update... could it? I make a case today to never exclude the possibility that you DID cause the issue the customer is concerned about, even if it doesn't make sense up front. The burden of proof is on us as repair professionals.

On this week's episode I'm sharing a mindset that I like to take when I believe I've found the the problem during a diagnosis. This has helped me have a better accuracy rate and identify multiple problems. After I've gotten to the part that seems to be the issue, I like to prove myself wrong... But shouldn't I be proving myself my right?? Listen to find out where I'm going with this and how to help get to the accurate solution more often.
