Old fossel here, been shop owner and wrench 45 yrs. Almost turned you off, another freekin egghead I says, but your demeaner kept me watching. Learned alot, thankyou! Nice to see young man with passion for your proffesion! I subscribed! One thing you said is huge and very overlooked. Take the time to thouroughly inspect vehicle. Fixed alot cars in my time with eyeballs, best tool in the box!😅😅
Great stuff Ryan. I'm an old retired guy trying not to fall too far out of the loop. Thanks for all your help. Looking forward to the next installments.
Well done Ryan! When you think you know a tricky subject, try to explain it in a concise way so everyone can gain from it. You did this very well! Looking forward to part 2.
My ECU blew 2 times and I had to print out the ECU/CAN lines and Crayola them for the dealership at the time to have them actually fix the problem for the third ECU... you just validated the entire video with that one line IMO.
Phenomenal presentation! Loved the historical to modern progression, and the myriad analogies and real world examples. Now I can finally understand what Pine Hollow Auto Diagnostics and South Main Auto are doing. They zip through the wiring diagrams so quickly, I could never quite follow their logic. It all makes sense now. Cheers!
This is a really good video. There's one reason you didn't touch on as to why there are so many busses. Besides trying to isolate a single failure from taking down the entire vehicle, silicon and plastic is still cheaper and lighter than copper wiring. As an example, it's cheaper and easier to run a single power wire and a smaller gauge pair of CAN bus wires to the tail light module than individual wires for the turn signal, brake light, and backup light. Plus the tail light module can self-diagnose lamp failures and report those back. Of course, the downside is that the tail light module is 20x more expensive if you have to replace it, and you'll be lucky if you can still find one 10 years later. This increases the likelihood of the car being declared totaled after an accident, and the vehicle needing to be replaced, which definitely benefits the manufacturer.
Thank you Ryan! Eric O from SMA used to explain how to separate the modules. Ivan from PHAD explained and then separated the modules using his wiring diagram and clip board. In both SMA and PHAD the viewer got to see the vehicle start and run with the problem still further down the line. Also the tech tips for bypassing a module to test the system. ( High, Medium, Low Speed CAN.) You're explaining how to test the systems, what to look for (green crusties, mice bites, etc) and ya, sometimes you do get lucky during a visual test.
I was a dealership trained ASE master auto tech from 1984 to 1994. After years of low pay and disgust with the way the industry was run, I got out and went back to college. If today you guys are at this level of technology and still working at a dealership or independent shop on a commission basis and still having to deal with the cut throat warranty programs, your nuts and should have your heads examined. There are way easier ways of making money on the clock just waiting around for something to break down. I worked Frac as an E-tech for 8 years. I basically worked 12 hours a day and got paid 16. We sat around and listened to the radio waiting for a call. Some shifts there was no calls. When there was a call we usually got it fixed in 15 minutes and they got back to work. At weatherford they were paying us every two weeks, per diem every two weeks and a monthly $1500 bonus. That's five checks a month... Yearly earnings were $120K to $140K per year. Don't let the auto repair industry short change you fellas. There is a whole world out there that needs your expertise and is willing to pay you good money for it and they won't make you bust your ass for it most of the time...
Great information Ryan! This system is complicated but if we break it down before we connect the oscilloscope and the multimeter it should be easier. Thank you for the class! This topic is very important for all techs!
Hey Keka, I agree 100%, we need to simplify these complicated systems so we can have a fighting chance to diagnose them. Thanks for reaching out and for checking out the video! ~Ryan
Nothing less than fantastic classroom teaching in relatable language. God bless you for doing this for all us tech that are in the game from years ago as you e given us a training course that was just not available unless we were in main dealers. I'm getting back into the trade after a decade away and hearing that it's impossible to get a good tech these days. So thank you so much for paying it forward. Your a great teacher and top tech.
That network at 8:44 reminds me of 1975 when the bank I worked for first joined all 300 branches to a central computer where I worked. Each one of your individual networks was a city or county with several bank branches, and each area connected to a multiplexer which in turn communicated with the central computer. I can understand that ! 😃
This is world classs❤❤❤❤ love it so much. Exquisite. How you start from explaining the problem of the need to communicate between modules. Then, you highlight the evolution of the network design, then you ahow why each module is needed. Especially that gateway module part. Because I always thoughg these automobile manufacturers were just being a pain by making so many modules. Thanks so much❤❤❤. It has made me appreciate the complexity.
Thank you so much sr. After watching your video, things are more clear than before for me. I’m still need more to understand the net work but for now it’s more better. God bless you
New subscriber who is trying to learn CAN SYSTEMS. FIRST excellent presentation. I have listened to it being explained to me before but this explanation is a terrific place to start and you explained it very well. It is so easy to become overwhelmed. I’m sure l’ll watch it over quite a few times I know I’m sure I missed a lot but it’s nice to know how everything is laid out before troubleshooting. Thanks for sharing. Artie 👍
Thanks for Awesome simple video on Can Bus. I'm a young Mechanic starting out and it's hard to diagnose something that you don't understand. And thanks to all the techs in the comments sharing information!
I'm not a tech but i've been working on my own vehicles for many years now and i find this kind of information very interesting indeed.. Funny isn't it though,we have all this technology but still have to put a smelly liquid in and burn it to make them work. Excellent video
To really help it would be nice if all manufacturers had the same can or lin etc colours. Yes there will be at least 10 different pairs and when looking at the module / node's it would be easy to see 2/3 network's on same module. Fantastic start. Been doing car electrics 30 years and I have learned a lot today.
But I have learned alot from your channel and I am thankful I have been on my own now for 4 years these cars are getting more difficult to work on but not only that lots of customers are getting more short tempered patients is a thing of the past as techs we don't just look at one or two cars a day some easy and some very difficult sometimes we can look at one to nine cars in one day I love working on cars I enjoy seeing customers faces when there car is fixed they get so happy but everything is changing the world is changing
I agree! Some days are good, somedays they get the best of you. As long as Techs likes you still find the pride in their work and stay positive through out the change. They will be successful and come out on top of the “automotive revolution” as I like to call it. Keep wrenching and feel free to reach out if you need a second opinion. Every time I feel i finally caught up, some car comes and kicks my butt. Thanks again for reaching out ! ~Ryan
Very good young man, a lot of these you tube can bus videos focus on 1 network which isn’t the case these days, you’ve explained the breaking down of network’s excellently
Great video and narrator.. i teach for a corporation, and what's even worse is that 3 manufactures.. They have now stuck their parts in the same car and of don't get along. What's worse is information,, so like you,, I teach my techs to always,, always bring out the canbus schematics,, and split everyone up.. I have several vehicles which are completely gutted out, and we diag each group or groups... It becomes very clear and simpler.. Keep up the great work..
I have seen other bus network videos but this one is the best one ...very well explain and learned a lot from your video...thank you and Godbless you ..👍👍👍🙏
That’s really incredible. My weakness is understanding diagrams. I know that would help me out a lot on electrical stuff on the vehicle so I’m going to be watching your videos more often to up my game thank you
just to add, these vehicles will do weird things if something isn't communicating, I just got done doing an engine on a 22 gmc sierra 6.2l, i like to run my engines before I put everything back together, make sure i dont have any leaks or noises and such, had the snorkel off maf disconnected, started the truck, no oil pressure on the gauge, truck ran great, no noise's so I knew it had oil pressure went at diagnosing the oil pressure sensor, all tested fine, only code stored u1345 lin bus lost communication with ecm, went down the rabbit hole, looked at my lin bus coms, learnd that the maf is on that, went ahead and put the snorkel back on, plugged in my maf sensor, and boom, oil pressure on the ipc now works, makes no sense to me, but now I know...lol
Hey Kevin, Wow! That is crazy, it is almost like it went into a weird default mode because the MAF sensor wasn't talking. Thank you for sharing, information like this can really help someone that may run into a similar problem! ~Ryan
Congratulations , you guys always show great lessons on driveability diagnostics , which is one of the most difficult areas in automotive repair field .👏👍
Thank you so much for posting this awesome video, Ryan 🙂it was the best explanation on the entire Ytube, really made sense, looking forward to viewing the other material that you have so kindly posted, keep up the great work. i have a Mercedes W205 here in the Shop with innumerable problems, and i hope to get to grips with it, certainly i feel confident now after watching this video, Bless 😇
Very good video the teaching was really interesting and easy to learn from,thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience I’m really looking forward to seeing more can’t wait 👍
Hey Ricky, Thanks for watching! I really wanted to show how uncomplicated this can be with the right approach. Working on Part 2 now, should be out soon! ~Ryan
I really like those topology maps the scanners have now. I just can't afford it right now. Hopefully it won't be long and that will be on the lower end scanners soon. Things are changing pretty fast. I bought a Autel Mp 808 a couple years back and thought I had done pretty good for like 800. Now you got to spend almost 2000 to get the topology and coding. I think patience is going to help me. Just fixing em on the side now. Thanks for the great video!
Hello, One thing I love about scan tools now is all the options we have. Autel alone has over 20 different scan tools to choose from. But your right, 2-4 grand for most of the higher end ones these days. But I guess it's better then only having Snap-on's $10,000 dollar scan as a choice (even though I do like that tool). Thanks for checking out the video and reaching out! ~Ryan
Well this explains the lack of "Accessory" wires in the multiple interior fuse boxes in my 2024 Sierra Pro. Plenty of constant power wires, but no "key on" wires to tap off of.
God bless you for giving us this information...I'm at a lost now trying to find out why my fuel pump keeps dieing..have 12v at wire hardness 9.8 on ground. Don't know why..new relay..
i must say nice presentation. there are so many analogies one can make as to how this works. i'll spare you my take on it, lol. looking foreward to the next installment.
Now that was some good stuff!!! Thanks a bunch Ryan. Ill be keeping your remark on how this is all just "glorified map reading" in mind. I also agree that it is beneficial for us that all the different modules are linked in different groups allowing for us to just observe patterns and figure out the common factor if presented with a list of trouble codes. Now what would one do with out a "CAN MAP?" Not sure if any one has ever told you and Im certainly no expert but it seems to me that you're a natural teacher.
Love that term "glorified map reading". As a big map buff I know that having free access to decent maps like Google Maps was a crazy good breakthrough. I like how you have built some good simple flowcharts for this, but it might be good to call out what reference diagrams you are looking on screen. Folks in the industry might recognize the screens but folks who tinker with cars as a hobby might find the cost of entry to this stuff is prohibitive.
Good point! Most of the diagrams I use are from a paid subscription and without them it would be impossible to work on these systems. Car manufactures have not done a good job of releasing these to the public with out a cost. Hopefully in the future they will be more accessible without the price tag. ~Ryan
@@GoTechTraining Agreed - perhaps a topic of a future video - a bit of a review of the subscriptions you are familiar with. For better or worse, subscriptions to such services are part of the large overhead that mechanical shops incur these days. The general public needs to learn that finding the "right" mechanic or shop to take their car to is about finding a place that has the necessary technical information and diagrams etc.,.
riley nice video to build confidence without making it to complicated with data communication oscilloscopes for CAN communication without specific U code is not worth it. and the teaching metodic “how to think” is super
The definition of freedom is the ability to move how you want, when you want, and using any clean free energy source you want. It is a good practice to listen also. GoTech quote, "You'll go nuts trying to look at this all at once". Freedom is NEVER easily gained! As Paul Pantone once said, most inventors trying to obtain freedom through their inventions end up in the nut house!
I think I have one of those House Of card scenarios on a 2007 GMC Yukon XL. I took it to the dealer to have them diagnose it. They replace some parts and said they cannot figure it out so they told me to come pick up my car and it is been sitting for 2 years and still is not fixed. Every time you turn the key to start the car, it will fry the BCM. Thanks for the information. Hopefully this might help me diagnose it.
hey nice video. one of the best i've seen. Thanks. Im working on a same problem but I'm getting close to 10 volts on Hi and Lo line. still trying to figure it out. thanks for the video
My problem starts when obtaining any schematic information from the manufacturer, (BMW), is impossible and access to the most basic information has been monetized and you’re required to pay through the nose for it. Nowadays doing it yourself is impossible because the information is restricted purposely. Obtaining wiring schematics for my 2000 BMW M5 is a nightmare.
Loved the video and how you break things down. I will definitely be watching the rest of your videos. Curious on what subscriptions you use for wiring diagrams. --- I answered my own question by reading the comments 😂
Whether you are working on turn of the century or newer vehicles, this trilogy of videos will help you learn the steps to diagnose and repair the electronic systems with reasonable confidence.

do Snap-on tools sell that special tool ; 'Eye Balls' ? 🙂
Wow it’s clear you spend a lot of time preparing this. Very well presented! Looking forward to the other parts.
Hello,

Ryan's a phenomenal teacher especially within these systems. Thank you for all your hard work & expertise
Thanks for demystifying a complicated topic. As someone who's worked on data networks for 30 years, I'm impressed with the core principals you shared.
My ECU blew 2 times and I had to print out the ECU/CAN lines and Crayola them for the dealership at the time to have them actually fix the problem for the third ECU... you just validated the entire video with that one line IMO.

Hey Ed,
You're very welcome! This is the way I diagnose CAN in the shop.
I'm glad you enjoyed the video!

Great point ! Like window switch’s with three wires and 100 functions!

Thanks Ryan for giving us insight on breaking down the house of cards. A deck of 52 is harder to test than a suit of 13.
Yes it is Terry! Someone was paying attention!
Thanks for watching!
~Ryan
It started with emissions & keeps improving today it’s a a full fledged computer with a module to control each sector
Thank you Ryan! Eric O from SMA used to explain how to separate the modules. Ivan from PHAD explained and then separated the modules using his wiring diagram and clip board.

I've watched to part3....If you wish to learn and understand well...please don't miss this series
Now that was some good stuff!!! Thanks a bunch Ryan. Ill be keeping your remark on how this is all just "glorified map reading" in mind. I also agree that it is beneficial for us that all the different modules are linked in different groups allowing for us to just observe patterns and figure out the common factor if presented with a list of trouble codes.
Now what would one do with out a "CAN MAP?"
Not sure if any one has ever told you and Im certainly no expert but it seems to me that you're a natural teacher.
It would be tough with out a Map, alot if trial and error.
Thanks for the kind words and supporting the channel.
~Ryan
outstanding presentation of a difficult topic for many of us. Thanks'
You hit it outta the park ! Thanks mate !
Thank You! Stay tuned for part 2!
Very compelling, great format. Always appreciated guys

@@GoTechTraining Love your content Ryan, really learn a lot from you Guy's😍
This video is brilliant.You're a great communicator sir! Subscribed.
Love that term "glorified map reading". As a big map buff I know that having free access to decent maps like Google Maps was a crazy good breakthrough. I like how you have built some good simple flowcharts for this, but it might be good to call out what reference diagrams you are looking on screen. Folks in the industry might recognize the screens but folks who tinker with cars as a hobby might find the cost of entry to this stuff is prohibitive.
Good point!
Most of the diagrams I use are from a paid subscription and without them it would be impossible to work on these systems.
Car manufactures have not done a good job of releasing these to the public with out a cost.
Hopefully in the future they will be more accessible without the price tag.
~Ryan
@@GoTechTraining Agreed - perhaps a topic of a future video - a bit of a review of the subscriptions you are familiar with. For better or worse, subscriptions to such services are part of the large overhead that mechanical shops incur these days. The general public needs to learn that finding the "right" mechanic or shop to take their car to is about finding a place that has the necessary technical information and diagrams etc.,.
Great Idea!
Thanks for reaching out!
~Ryan
riley nice video to build confidence without making it to complicated with data communication
oscilloscopes for CAN communication without specific U code is not worth it.
and the teaching metodic “how to think” is super
Thank you so much!
I appreciate you reaching out, glad you enjoyed it

Brilliant lesson mate. Thank you
My pleasure!

The definition of freedom is the ability to move how you want, when you want, and using any clean free energy source you want. It is a good practice to listen also. GoTech quote, "You'll go nuts trying to look at this all at once". Freedom is NEVER easily gained! As Paul Pantone once said, most inventors trying to obtain freedom through their inventions end up in the nut house!
Thanks for creating this. So helpful

I think I have one of those House Of card scenarios on a 2007 GMC Yukon XL. I took it to the dealer to have them diagnose it. They replace some parts and said they cannot figure it out so they told me to come pick up my car and it is been sitting for 2 years and still is not fixed. Every time you turn the key to start the car, it will fry the BCM. Thanks for the information. Hopefully this might help me diagnose it.
Well done thank you for informations that share with us....
Hey Farman,

hey nice video. one of the best i've seen. Thanks. Im working on a same problem but I'm getting close to 10 volts on Hi and Lo line. still trying to figure it out. thanks for the video
My problem starts when obtaining any schematic information from the manufacturer, (BMW), is impossible and access to the most basic information has been monetized and you’re required to pay through the nose for it. Nowadays doing it yourself is impossible because the information is restricted purposely. Obtaining wiring schematics for my 2000 BMW M5 is a nightmare.
It is frustrating
Fantastic video Ryan! Thank you!
Glad you liked it!
Thanks for reaching out!

Loved the video and how you break things down. I will definitely be watching the rest of your videos. Curious on what subscriptions you use for wiring diagrams. --- I answered my own question by reading the comments 😂
Whether you are working on turn of the century or newer vehicles, this trilogy of videos will help you learn the steps to diagnose and repair the electronic systems with reasonable confidence.
thanks for the info Ryan!
Thanks Neil! You use your terminal test lead set yet !
