great video scotty kilmer, thanks very much for the information i really appreciate it man....Please tel me, if i am using the OBD port plugged into the car whilst the scan tool is pulled in the cigarette power port, will it cause damage to the scan tool?
Scotty as a mechanic I just went through this on a Nissan. I was at my wits end, no communication with scanner, when I decided to check the DLC pins. I retensioned them, and got the scan tool to work. I got the dreaded U1000 code which is a story into itself, but it saved me money on another ecu which wasn't the issue.
Some people saying this video is a sell out. I don't see where. No name was mentioned, No link to product in description, The umbrella doesn't even have a name on it. Everybody has to make a buck. Leave the guy alone. He is a great guy. How many repair videos has he made for TH-cam? How many people have sent him money for helping them out? I rest my case.
I like his videos because they are to the point. He doesn't make you sit there and watch as he unbolts a nut. We all get how to take a nut or bolt off so why waste time. He is a sweet guy in person. -John
I don't see a sell out either. Are our favorite sports teams sell outs because they wear nike and addis? It's good that people want to sponsor Scotty. Nothing wrong with that.
yeah but showing you how to unbolt a bolt is very useful. Go watch ETC's video where he changes a radiator on a Chrysler. He spent 30 minutes just getting one bolt out lol. Chrysler engineers hid it behind some plastic and metal pieces so you can't get to it unless you remove all the junk first and then you realize it's rusted and you have to cut it off. And so what is usually a 10 second unbolting turns into a two hour chore.
Thank you Scotty for your channel. I'm just an old shade tree mechanic. The modern engines are out of my league. I'm glad you are up to pare on the latest. I really value your information. Keep up the great work you do on TH-cam. It helps MORE than you know.
I was chasing my tail for a month trying to figure out a 2002 Buick rendezvous. Countless hours and dead ends. This video and a half hour, fixed the problem. Thank you!!!!
Coolant temp sensor on mine. Still haven't replaced it. Just unplugging and replugging solved the communication issue. Still throwing a code for it, but now my scan tool is working again.
so glad I came across this video, I haven't been able to pass my smog, I went to 3 different locations, finally last week guy told me, it's my OBD PORT, I didn't think about one could be bend. I paid for my registration, so the price wouldn't increase, but no sticker, today when I get home I'm going to check the port. I was about to go to the dealership, they want $195 to do a diagnostic check, if they fix the issue, then they told me they would credit that towards the bill. I have a 2012 Toyota Camry SE, I LOVE MY CAR I have 103K miles on it the warranty just expired at 100K, will post an update sometime this weekend. thanks again for sharing your GREAT KNOWLEDGE ON CARS.
I love this guy! Not only is he super funny to watch he really knows what he's talking about. Every time I have a question that I am stumped on I look it up on his channel and he's never let me down thanks Scotty keep rocking brother
Thank you scotty. I gave open heart surgery to my 7.3 and when I closed her back up I must've caused a sensor to short. No start no communication with ecm. I tried this and found the problem! Saved me so much headache
This helped me a TON when trying to get my 2009 Pontiac G6 to connect to my OBD2 sensor. Had the connectivity problem and turned out to be s sensor on the engine... I couldn't figure it out forever!!! After checking fuses, reading other articles online, etc.. I just kept driving it over the last year with a check engine light on because nothing seemed out of wack. I was gonna just run it to the ground because I was so stumped! Thanks Scotty!
Beetlejuice HeRe. I've been a SeLF schooled Vehicle mechanic for 38 years. I know I don't know everything but I'm abs SRS and AIR-TEAM Certified. But i have a customers truck and iT won't start. I've programmed the key and fob that works but won't crank and no communication with 2 different scanner's snap-on veris and an enova. YOu just gave me a turn. Cause I was at a Dead End.. thank you. God's Speed..
You are THE MAN! had the same problem, and it was the same issue, I didnt reconnect the fuel pressure sensor completely. Plugged it back in, good as gold. Thank YOU Scotty.
Love the channel Scotty. I've tried all these methods. Nothing will work with the machines. All the lights come on. I'm speechless. I have a 2004 Northstar Cadillac Deville.
Thank You!!!! 😊 so very much Mr. Scotty Kilmer! This video helped me immensely!!! This helped my car start 🚗right away!!! 2 Blown fuses!!! But the right ones right away! Bamm!!! Car good as new!!! Thank You!!!! 😊 God Bless You 😇 🙏 😃🙂🙃🙂
All I hear in my head when I see any gauges moving fast or hear revving is Scott Kilmer going "REVVVV UP YOUR ENGINES!" Great videos man. I even watch the random ones just to see what the solution is. Very educational and entertaining.
i would love to be your neighbors, fixin my car while getting more experience just by talking and watching you fixing other car. oh what a perfect petrol head dream hahaha
Welcome to Australia, OBD2 became standard in 2006 and anything before then generally never works regardless if you have an OBD2 port or not, however this makes you learn manufacturer specific diagnostics - Toyotas E1 and TE1 jumper, Subaru diagnostic connectors/FreeSSM/Romraider etc etc
One of my friends has a fairly new (two year old) Kia Cerato. He took it to the dealer for a software update, it failed at 99%. Wouldn't communicate, wouldn't start, nothing. The car was dead, all of it. ECU, dash, lighting, everything. They unplugged the battery for a few minutes and it didn't help. Kia ordered a new ECU (warranty) but it took two weeks to arrive. While they were waiting my friend did more research into it. Turns out that you need to leave the battery disconnected for 24 hours. He told the dealer that, and they tried that. Hey presto, they were able to enter a recovery mode, reflash/update the ECU and all good. They didn't need to replace the ECU after all.
Great video, when i first bought my f150 the cigar lighter and obd wasnt working turned out to be a broken fuse.. replaced it both worked... good to know the other possible errors and fixes
I never thought of a umbrella. Thanks for the tip. I also have an issue like the one you describe with scan tool not fully communicating. Thanks again, I will try that.
Although unlikely, had two sensors that been shorted out or faulty you would have changed the ECU going by your logic and what you said. You would unplug one bad sensor but because the device still wouldn't communicate you assumed it was not that sensor and plugged it back in. After going through all the sensors you would still have no comms and assume it was the ECU computer. Best to unplug the sensors one at a time and check comms WITHOUT plugging them back in. That is the only way you can be 100% sure it is not one of them causing the comms problem.
Some businesses in ebay sells rebuild car computers for like $120 - $240. What's even better is some of them reprogram it for you, just send them your VIN and whatever it's necessary. You may have to send back your old one for core exchange.. In my past, a mini van had a faulty TCM and it had P0500 and P0605 codes. I order a ebay rebuild TCM, swap it, and it still works today. The P0500 and P0605 codes disappeared when I replaced the TCM.
It's not a good idea to purchase a rebuilt computer. They only redo the cold solder joints. Keeping P=I.I.R in perspective, what do you suppose happened to the ICs while a cold solder joint in the computer gave out gradually? ICs have a very small headroom for fluctuations caused by a bad solder joint elsewhere in the circuit.
Ahh man thank you!! It's been bothering me so much that I wasn't able to use my scan tool! I look forward to hopefully finding the solution on my own. Can you show us how to replace one of those connectors? 👀
Robb's Homemade Life ~ He did, (over a year ago), and he likes the idea of a cheap and highly fuel efficient car that most people can afford to buy new without an outrageous monthly payment. His video was titled, " Is This The Future Of Cars? 84 MPG ".
Thank you for not being the majority of videos on this topic which strictly address checking the fuse (which is arguably the most-known and easiest problem)
ive been working on cars for about 8 years, i even asked everyone else around here and no one has ever heard of unplugging sensors to get a code reader to work, not that im saying your wrong its just crazy we never ran into this problem. 95% of the time its always a blown fuse linked to the cigarette lighter. the other 5% is a screwed up wire at the port
i have a link error check fuses for ob2 good also checked fuses for cig lighter it was blown, i replaced it with a good one now my cig lighter works but i am still getting a link error do i have to drive the car to get the scanner to work without the link error after replacing the fuse? scanner works fine on my 07 bmw 335i but not on my 06 330ci it just says link error still? should i drive it and then it will reset after a drive cycle? i need it smogged, it passed 6 months ago but i need it smogged for transfer to me as guy had an old report (6 months olD) and dmv requires 90 days when transfered
Mr. Kilmer. I am having trouble figuring out my truck. 2003 Dodge Dakota SLT 3.9. It was running for about an hour and just shut off by itself and it won't start back up. It has plenty of gas and I'm getting a spark. I bought a new MS300 scanner but it won't read anything on my truck. Your input would be appreciated.
Hey Scotty! I have just found you a few weeks ago on youtube, love your channel! if i could ask you a question? My car is a 2006 Buick lacrosse 3.8L V6, it is having a similar issue, my OBD2 says CRC error, and wont connect to diagnostics. My car diagnostics port is clean and nothing bent, i have my engine light on and working when i start the car, i wanted to try to do the sensor test you did (my car doesn't have a computer fuse in the fuse box) but i dont know what sensors to test with, do you have a list?
YOUR COMPUTER FUSE WILL BE LISTED AS ECM ,AND IF YOU WAIT FOR SCOTTISH TO ANSWER YOU ,MAKE YOUR SELF LUNCH ,IT WILL BE A WHILE LOL ! HE GOT TO BIG FOR HIS BRITCHES ,HE FORGOT ABOUT HIS FANS WHEN MONEY CAME TO HIM !
I just got a new scan tool, it works but a great thing to know. When I was an active ASE tech, they didn't have this type tool. Really basic ones or my trusty Snap-on scanner. :) I'm more interested in the "fall out" shelter, I'm in GA so, tornadoes 🌪and zombies are quite likely. :) Is that a modular installation or custom poured?
I replaced the body control module on a 2005 ford mustang 4.0 v6 engine. Haven't programmed it but the car runs fine no issues. Just it has abs traction control and the brake light on. I checked all the fuses they are not blown. I have an the computer scanner and I'm not able to get communication with the abs system or the power control module. Have you had the same issue with this car?
Hi Scotty, is ok to leave the scan tool, or laptop with OBD2 Software connected while disconnecting each fuse one at a time? Thank you very much for your time.
What are some common tools used on VW's? Got a position at a VW dealership and want to make sure that I have everything I need. I read that I should definitely get a set of Torx sockets. Thanks
Hi love the show, I have one for you it's to check all the fuses inside and outside the car , I had the same problem it's was a simple fuse that power powers the OBDII connector.
I work at a part store, we have the same scanner. Some asshat said we messed up his obd port cuz we plugged it in backwards? I'm a polish female, and I can pull off some pretty off the wall stuff...but that I cant even do that. Now. To fix my car
My son had a stereo system installed and now the OBD 2 port doesn't communicate with the scan tool. I'm thinking they snipped a wire running to the port. What do you think? Everything else checks out..

I have the same problem, what was the problem with your Rendezvous? May be a common issue?
which sensor was the faulty 1?
Coolant temp sensor on mine. Still haven't replaced it. Just unplugging and replugging solved the communication issue. Still throwing a code for it, but now my scan tool is working again.

Decades of experience make this chap an authority repairing cars. Indeed, he does know what he talks about.
My wife won't communicate with me. I'll have to give this a try.
make sure she's plugged in
she's all hard soldered unfortunately, have to find a way to make the software srop malfunctioning
Just unplug her husband sensor... lol !
Maybe you should trade her in on a newer model !
One with oversized headlights and a tighter suspension.
You are THE MAN! had the same problem, and it was the same issue, I didnt reconnect the fuel pressure sensor completely. Plugged it back in, good as gold. Thank YOU Scotty.
I love this guy.
I love you too
Right I havnt even met scotty and I would trust scotty with my car than most that has worked on it
Love the channel Scotty. I've tried all these methods. Nothing will work with the machines. All the lights come on. I'm speechless. I have a 2004 Northstar Cadillac Deville.
Hey. Did you ever get the problem fixed? We’re having caddy issues too
Second sensor I unplugged let the scanner do its thing. Thanks for the information. You always come through.
3 times now...this guy has been my hero!
+Scotty Kilmer , if Chevrolet trucks won't communicate, it's most likely the cigarette lighter fuse. :) Thx for all your energetic videos.
This true? Lol
Very informative video, a lot of cars out there with this problem ☺️
Thank You!!!! 😊 so very much Mr. Scotty Kilmer! This video helped me immensely!!! This helped my car start 🚗right away!!! 2 Blown fuses!!! But the right ones right away! Bamm!!! Car good as new!!! Thank You!!!! 😊 God Bless You 😇 🙏 😃🙂🙃🙂
Where this guy at i need him right now
YOU GOT LUCKY HONEY ,COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS ,ITS NOT ALWAYS THAT EASY ,TRUST ME ! LOL
I know nothing about cars but lately I have decided to be a perfect mechanic in cars in every department ...so that is a reason why Im here
Thanks Scotty, you're a life saver!
Love your attitude and how you approach problems. I have a whole new perspective for how to solve problems
You saved me I was going crazy checked everything now it's working THANKS!!
been searching for hours nay days. Thank you so much. Will try😃
Omg this would take FOREVER! The scan tools take forever to try to connect.
Great video!
replaced a rear wheel bearing assembly last weekend, so satisfying doing it yourself
U have no clue how much you just helped me
All I hear in my head when I see any gauges moving fast or hear revving is Scott Kilmer going "REVVVV UP YOUR ENGINES!" Great videos man. I even watch the random ones just to see what the solution is. Very educational and entertaining.
I love you man....you fix my problems and save me a lot of money and time thank you again
Scotty my man you're the best automotive youtuber
You are the best. Thank you, Sir.
Makes me wonder. Why do you need a scanner when you have to search/communicate yourself with the car ? I allways watch your videos !
i have the same car with the same sorta issue and just ordered a new ECU before watching this and didn't do that testing so ill go do it now omg
well just tried unplugging a few sensors with this method but was unable to find the issue
Scotty, you're a star!
i would love to be your neighbors, fixin my car while getting more experience just by talking and watching you fixing other car. oh what a perfect petrol head dream hahaha
Elio! I just found my “$100 Elio t-shirt” yesterday! I’d love to see your video showcase on that story!
hi sr, this vid is puré gold itself, thats one of the most kept technitians secrets locked out thank Scottie I always admire you. Greetings
Great tips Scotty, thank you!
Welcome to Australia, OBD2 became standard in 2006 and anything before then generally never works regardless if you have an OBD2 port or not, however this makes you learn manufacturer specific diagnostics - Toyotas E1 and TE1 jumper, Subaru diagnostic connectors/FreeSSM/Romraider etc etc
Free SSM is my best friend for my suby here in Aus
Wow you guys were really behind the times
Tried RomRaider? much better logging support
Standard since 2006? Wow, those have been standard in US cars since 1996.

How do I know what computer sensors to disconnect can you list em for me
Any help?
Great test. Very intelligent, Scotty.
God damn it Scotty, you’ve saved me again! Subbing and watching every video from here on out. Thank you Sir!
Thank you! didn't know that ECUs wont communicate if a sensor is shorted. I shall try it later on my Hyundai GrandStarex
Awesome. Short quick and informative. 👍🏼
Great video, when i first bought my f150 the cigar lighter and obd wasnt working turned out to be a broken fuse.. replaced it both worked... good to know the other possible errors and fixes
I never thought of a umbrella. Thanks for the tip. I also have an issue like the one you describe with scan tool not fully communicating. Thanks again, I will try that.
this guy actually has good points... jeeze
right on Scotty,Roger in the great white north,and yes we get corrosion in the connector
Hey, thanks for sharing!
the ending was EPIC!

Thanks for this!
Some businesses in ebay sells rebuild car computers for like $120 - $240. What's even better is some of them reprogram it for you, just send them your VIN and whatever it's necessary. You may have to send back your old one for core exchange.. In my past, a mini van had a faulty TCM and it had P0500 and P0605 codes. I order a ebay rebuild TCM, swap it, and it still works today.

crazy this man ; jumping from place to other to make this vdo , please don't leave earth
this is news to me. thanks scotty.
Ahh man thank you!! It's been bothering me so much that I wasn't able to use my scan tool! I look forward to hopefully finding the solution on my own. Can you show us how to replace one of those connectors? 👀
Great video!!
Always helpful!

How to fix the k line obd2
this is awesome. will save me tons of time! can the obd be used to detect starter signal, say on PCM pins 23 and 76?
Great, helpful, trouble shooting tip. Thanks.
Scotty tus videos son los mejores.... Eres mi "go to mecanico".
Thank you for not being the majority of videos on this topic which strictly address checking the fuse (which is arguably the most-known and easiest problem)
I love your videos and channel. Very helpful and strait to the point. This video was a great help. Thank you!
You crazy guy.... I like your videos. Thanks.
I love rain. Great vid Scotty.
ive been working on cars for about 8 years, i even asked everyone else around here and no one has ever heard of unplugging sensors to get a code reader to work, not that im saying your wrong its just crazy we never ran into this problem. 95% of the time its always a blown fuse linked to the cigarette lighter. the other 5% is a screwed up wire at the port
well, I've seen it many times here in hot humid houston. the head and humidity tends to wreck havoc with computer systems
around chicago everything usually rusts in half and falls off before anything can go wrong with most parts
i have a link error check fuses for ob2 good also checked fuses for cig lighter it was blown, i replaced it with a good one now my cig lighter works but i am still getting a link error do i have to drive the car to get the scanner to work without the link error after replacing the fuse? scanner works fine on my 07 bmw 335i but not on my 06 330ci it just says link error still? should i drive it and then it will reset after a drive cycle? i need it smogged, it passed 6 months ago but i need it smogged for transfer to me as guy had an old report (6 months olD) and dmv requires 90 days when transfered
Worked perfectly!
great tips thanks Scotty
Love you Scotty.
I burst out laughing with that intro. Well done scotty you made my day again 😀
Lool I needed this like two days ago
Very helpful thanks scotty
Thoughts on the 370z? have you worked on one and found and major problems?
a great video thanks Scotty
Mr. Kilmer. I am having trouble figuring out my truck. 2003 Dodge Dakota SLT 3.9. It was running for about an hour and just shut off by itself and it won't start back up.

Nice bunker man. Really cool.
summer20105707 lol did you see the scorpion run down the wall of the bunker
Hey Scotty! I have just found you a few weeks ago on youtube, love your channel! if i could ask you a question?

Was that a scorpion running down the wall at 2:34? :O
I'm thinking the same thing...it looks like one
yep, lots of em in Texas. It's not that big of a deal if they sting you though, not much worse than a wasp sting really
but you can hear wasps

Hi love the show, I have one for you it's to check all the fuses inside and outside the car , I had the same problem it's was a simple fuse that power powers the OBDII connector.
Oh the check engine light was on it was on for a lose gas cap
Great video, awesome!
I work at a part store, we have the same scanner. Some asshat said we messed up his obd port cuz we plugged it in backwards? I'm a polish female, and I can pull off some pretty off the wall stuff...but that I cant even do that. Now. To fix my car
Good video man.
Oh man, I'm having this issue with an 05 SAAB 9-5.
I'm not looking forward to going through all the sensors but, here we go!
What sensors do you have to unplug and how do you find them?
My son had a stereo system installed and now the OBD 2 port doesn't communicate with the scan tool. I'm thinking they snipped a wire running to the port. What do you think? Everything else checks out..
Mine won’t connect and I moved to an emission state. I’m a mechanic but I’ve never experienced this before. Thanks for the video.
You are the man Scotty! :D
