Thank you for another informative video. It may not make sense to some people why I find these type videos to my liking, but probably goes all the way back to when I was 14 and put a small block Chevy engine together from a box of parts. I like to know how things work, and cars have been my passion since then. Even though I'll probably never work on one of these, I can vicariously through here. Or, maybe I'm just an odd duck. 🦆
i was going to put a longer post contrasting our methods, i tend to (over) emphasize collecting data, baselining before touching anything, Freeze frame, the works. i watched your other p1101, one difference i won't disconnect a sensor because pcm adaptive strategy will throw you curve balls. failure management is hard to predict. i use "give the motor what it wants", adding a vacuum leak or propane to see how and if it self corrects. also driving the vehicle to relearn trim cells instead of a trim reset, or reset to verify repair is less preferred. i liked you could verify the code self test ran and passed at the end, as mode 6 is usually too much a pain to decipher.
Thank you for sharing your methods. I always appreciate feedback and comments. I take the all of the above approach when it comes to diagnostic methodology… I’ll use different methods as needed. Most all of my diags are similar to what you said, I like to gather information before I even touch the car. Thank you.
@@DadsGarageDiagnosticSpecialist man i really want to go into nuances on this case study, mainly because others will read and learn. but it'll be moot. maybe you could share about something i've been bothered by. you briefly touched on with this. Calculated vs absolute load. how it could be useful when given both numbers in data? best i can judge, it's mathematical engineering values, calculated vs sensor outputs, absolute. and, as House MD puts it, "is it diagnostically relevant?" i've been using scan tools nearly 35 years, L1 in 96, but specialize in wiring diagram stuff.
@@DadsGarageDiagnosticSpecialist that would have me spiral outwards a bit too much. i've been mulling over your recent reprogramming video, wanted to put up a reply on the state of the industry, why it's been losing skilled techs. let me think it over. i understand channel activity helps the algorithms. for every reply, 20 or 200 read comments. brief answer what i've learned: "shortest path to the cash" is the driving force. ugly reality. air cleaners used to have one nut access. contradictory to 'bean counters never include anything unless it's vital'. strict routine prevents "last 2 cars were blue, this one's blue = same problem" trap. and a dozen more axioms.
@@mkuehn5450 the algorithm is good and all that. Primarily I think having more and more skilled people making comments just adds to the pool of experience people could potentially learn from. That’s what it’s all about for me. Thanks.
Great job, Thanks for sharing! Do you always use the OEM scan tool? I find them so cumbersome, The only one I find better than an aftermarket is Witech.
I do prefer to use factory diagnostic tools in most cases if I can these days for reliability. Years ago back when I worked for independent shops, I used a lot of different aftermarket scan tools on many different makes and models. In some of my videos, I use a Matco maximus and it seems to be capable of doing most of the same functions. Sometimes I even prefer to use the aftermarket tool because it has a different way of displaying the data or better graphing capabilities, etc.. This particular problem could honestly be diagnosed successfully with a handheld $20 code reader in capable hands. Thank you.
Thank you very much! I am using OEM factory tool called an MDI2 device(multiple-diagnostic-interface) and factory GDS2 software. The same diagnosis can be accomplished with many different capable tools if one possesses the knowledge.

Thank you very much. I do appreciate you sharing.
I have always been the same way… I like to understand the way things work.
Thats too funny I just got done watching your other video
Hopefully you enjoyed. Thanks again.

@@mkuehn5450 feel free to share and discuss as much as you would like. Everybody can learn from it.

just came across your channel and subscribing. question: what kind of diagnostic equipment or software is that you are using. thanks
Thank you very much!

One thing How many miles on the car its always good to know
+
I cannot remember. It might be visible in the video somewhere, I’m not sure.
Thanks again.
Thanks for this informative video 👍
Thank you for the comment David!
Check out that other video here: INFAMOUS P1101 code… an easy fix this time….

❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you!
First:) great channel
Thank you!
Did you charge your customer 150$ for that i guess
Of course. There are a lot of costs involved with offering a skilled service.
Cheaper than the first three parts the parts store would have sold them.
