@Jimmy S Just had a Cardone reman rear caliper on a '93 Volvo 940 seize up solid after only 7 months of use. The other 3 are still hanging in there ... for now ...
@Jimmy S, BWD = Broke When Delivered. I call Cardone - Cardon't because the car don't actually get fixed no matter how many of their parts you warranty. But, at least, neither of them are Dorman parts. Whenever I have to go to a parts store, I always ask really loud for whatever part they have that isn't Dorman.
I really hope we go back to good quality parts. Dorman nightmares. So hard for me to explain to my customers about using oem. Thanks Keith for your fast and easy explanations.
i dont mean to be offtopic but does anybody know of a way to log back into an instagram account? I stupidly forgot my login password. I would appreciate any help you can offer me
So Dorman asked you not to mention them...lol I don't blame ya for not wanting to checking out the facilities. Make quality parts with quality internals, and their name won't be mentioned (in a negative connotation). I did not expect such a high bias voltage here. Another good tidbit.
@@jeremyanthony9300 the facility may be a warehouse or a offices.... I know they outsource plenty of their parts, if not most, overseas or out of the country. Mexico, China, Taiwan are a few.
That's pretty bad when a company doesn't want you to mention their name. If it was a company associated with electrical parts they'd be thrilled when you mentioned their name. Besides that, thanks for showing us the steps as to how you got to your conclusion.
Well Keith, you've proven it again just how good their parts really are..wouldn't even have to say the name anymore, just bring the camera in for a close shot of the name stamped on it. 🤣👍 The proof is in the video..Dorman.! Thanks Keith for sharing 😎
I've been dealing with the 2004 & 2017 code for years. I've replaced my IMRC at least 6 times and even replaced my Intake Manifold. This video is finally something that makes sense why the problem reoccurs. In your opinion, is the answer to find another manufacturer? Should I buy the Runner Control direct from Mopar??
Great video. The status of the aftermarket parts industry is absolutely the worst its been in the 29 years I've been in business. Very discouraging to say the least. The problem with being an independent is the Dealers inventory and delivery times make it great hard to not have to use the aftermarket crap. Not a day goes by that I have trouble getting a quality , part at a fair price delivered on a timely manner no right the first time. Literally. I'm curious if it's the same way with many of your clients.
When someone wants the cheapest thing/fix/repair, I really loose interest in the job. It takes all of my soul away and crushes it. Thanks for taking the time to make this video. Even if for no other reason than someone stumbling along to it and wonder how to test that part rather than priming the cannon. Seriously, thank you for your time and lessons. It is appreciated.
if dorman parts weren't defective out of the box or were oem quality we wouldn't trash them! I cant tell you how many cars come in with 5 volt reference problems and I find a dorman SAI check valve on the car, unplug it 5 volt reference is back to normal.
Dorman has some nerve. What does it matter where they make and test them? The ultimate test is the one they constantly fail seeing as how many new defective parts we see on the regular.
hi everybody , mi dodge caliber sometimes does not start. i checked and the fuel pump does not have energy, that was like that for some weeks... some times it start on , sometimes not. a week ago it just does not start again, i tested and the scanner says P2017, this is the only one code. this fail P2017 could be cut the energy for the fuel pump?
Help me understand how you tested ground integrity? Specifically, what protects the the meter from open current when changed the ground lead to positive? Thank you as usual
Voltmeters have an internal resistance of around 10 MegaOhms, so almost no current flows through the meter itself regardless of polarity of the leads :)
I bet if you took that IMRC motor off and shook it you'd hear rattling... You should tell them you'll go to their facility as a consultant, $3,500/day with travel expenses paid up front and permission to film inspect anything that gets boxed up.
DHOORMUN parts are like suppositories! They taste horrible, they're hard to swallow, they don't won't work, and for all the good they do, they could be shoved up your AS you know I can't post that word!! P.S. I hope you like the way I didn't say DORMAN parts suck, too loud!!
Same thing happen to me on a caliber. Diagnose and replace with a dorman actuator car came back 3 days later with an open potentiometer ..trailblazer steering angle sensor same .put dormans on 2 different ones .one was dead out of the box .the other one came back 3 weeks after. Ford f 150 5.4 cam phaser dorman again. Had to redo the whole job the next . i mean why even bother making this parts. This just wasting ppl time
Wow.. I see why everyone has a problem with dorman.. Thanks for taking the time to teach us..
Their just is no quality checks !
Quick question. Need downstream o2 sensor. Motorcraft does not have number anymore. 2008 mercury grand marquis. Best next option?ntk?

Tough lesson to learn, defective new parts. Messes with your head. Thanks for the lesson!
Guess Dorman will be sending you a hat and shirt in the mail like Eric O. to change your mind... lol

there facility is in bucks county

@@jeremyanthony9300 point is, not manufactured here.
@@CubasAutomotive outsourced overseas is why when the part is a Dorman part, it's junk.

Keith soon they will be sending you cash to not mention them. LOL Nice work brother!
We won’t say who it is but their initials are Dorman.
Fantastic video as always gotta love Dorman parts. Just had a battle myself with their VVT solenoids.
I had the same problem on a Sebring. Put an OEM Chrysler control in and the code went away.

‘Im Not really interested in going to China”😭😭😭😭 GREATVIDEO!
Dude you have like three hands! Only Dormant's finest 😉
Super Mario Diagnostics I saw four hands. So the better you get in diagnosing you grow more hands
😂😂😂😂
Nathan Knows I think it might be the chemicals. I do hear voices in my head 🤔
Haha “don’t feel like going to China” lol
Dorman ? Take Eric O with you lol

Brand new broken in the box. Lovely. Thanks for the video.
Thank you Keith please keep them coming .

My 08 malibu wont start, dash lights turn on but no crank.. got a code saying something about a 5 volt reference.. any help?
Will driving the car with this code on hurt the vehicle?
I've had little trouble with Dorman products... as long as there's no moving parts involved.
Dorman has some nerve. What does it matter where they make and test them? The ultimate test is the one they constantly fail seeing as how many new defective parts we see on the regular.
They thought they could bribe Keith, but he's a GOOD man!
let me tell you about the 5.3 g. m. dormans cam sensor my hand still hurts a year later it did not work never again
Hello, what kind of scanner do you use, and program? Thanks!
Ok how did you hold the camera/phone
the pin light and then handle the pomana at the same time
👳♂️
I will have to say, Dorman has made us all a lot of money in diagnostics though lol.
So 4 the record, if I have the same code on my 08 Jeep Compass, the Runner Control Valve is no good? Anyone....?

I’m happy I’m not the only one that hates dorman products.
Never Ever Work 😂😂😂 good stuff Keith. How much time did you put in this car?
Under 20 minutes including wiring diagrams
i have 4.25 volts at my signal wire is that enough to change pcm? thanks
Where's the Dorman facility at? I live near one in Pennsylvania.
That's the one Jeremy
I have a jeep compass with the same code customer changed the actuator but code still comes back
How you liking the light looks like a harbor freight. I have 3 like them pretty well, battery dosent last very long though.
My battery does ok , it's the switch that has failed on 2 already, but they warranty it out no questions asked
When they asked you to stop saying their name in your videos, did they say why?
Help me understand how you tested ground integrity? Specifically, what protects the the meter from open current when changed the ground lead to positive? Thank you as usual

Pine Hollow Auto Diagnostics -ahh...right....duh. For some reason my over protective brain thinks differently when it’s my expensive stuff
👍 👍, THANK YOU
DORMAN STRIKES AGAIN! How the hell do they stay in business? And, more importantly, how do they sleep at night??? 🤯🤯
I swear, I think I replaced this like 2 years ago with a Doorman part.. that's crazy
try this "just a brief reminder to everyone; Dorman asked me not to mention that they suck" - LOL
dont those got a reflashh for the code too? thought ole eric o did one once. the uscope battery must of been dead thats why it wasnt used!....
No reflash on this one.
@@NewLevelAuto dang. should of known you checked...
I have 2008 dodge charger v6 3.5 same code p2017 and p1004
I bet if you took that IMRC motor off and shook it you'd hear rattling... You should tell them you'll go to their facility as a consultant, $3,500/day with travel expenses paid up front and permission to film inspect anything that gets boxed up.
Funny how they want to convince you that the parts you see failing with their name on them somehow don't count.
DORMAN DORMAN DORMAN 🤭
i would not go there China. never now what could happen lol
bigger issue is that intake runner controls exist to start with, followed by the other 8 tons of buggy garbage.
Yo Keith, how do you fix a boss whos in reduced power mode?...can you reprogram his ecm😂😂😂😂
It's called visine in the coffee. Makes em move faster
New Level Auto its more than that bro..he's got the green crusties..😣😣😣😣😣😣
🤢
Dorman- you think that’s bad you obviously haven’t tried Britpart aka hitpart (insert letter S)
Between you and eric. Dorman must be pulling their hair out. They probably have meeting about you guys
DHOORMUN parts are like suppositories! They taste horrible, they're hard to swallow, they don't won't work, and for all the good they do, they could be shoved up your AS you know I can't post that word!!
P.S. I hope you like the way I didn't say DORMAN parts suck, too loud!!
China hahaha you crack me up tell them they should start making boat anchors at least they would get the voltage right
They would probably make them out of plastic. lol.
Mark Quigley I still think they should go with there strong point I mean they have made boat anchors for years they just did it in the wrong line

Dorman is # 1 in junk parts.
First
As s very smart man once said, "If you ain't first, you're last"!
Second😁
No way? But it's N.E.W
NJS - new junk stock
buy junk get junk
bwd dorman....
