HONDA CIVIC HYBRID STALLS / NOT CHARGING DIAGNOSIS
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 16 เม.ย. 2020
- In today's video we have a 2007 Honda Civic Hybrid IMA and the customer is complaining of stalling. After test driving the vehicle, we find that the charging system is not operating. The only problem is that because this vehicle is a hybrid, it does not use a conventional alternator. Follow along as I take you step by step through my diagnostic and troubleshooting process to fix this vehicle.

You did not get lucky. You put in all the work. You studied the systems. You studied the wiring. You then worked of a diagnostic plan that took you to the loose wiring. Great job
He would have gotten there eventually.
if he was lucky he would have noticed it the first time he hooked up the jumpers.
Still a bit disappointing that after all that troubleshooting it turned out to be a loose connection.
He will have a hard time selling that to the owner.
That's the problem with electrical systems, one bad connection can affect the whole thing.
I've even had batteries that act flat, even though the connections were tight - pull them off and clean the terminals and it's all good to go again.
I seen the problem soon as it did it , but that's how shops get paid hourly ! 🤑
If you want to get lucky, this is how to do it!
u are one honest person
rather than throwing parts you spent hours and scientifically found that it is a bad ground
I'm sure your customers are lucky to have an honest real mechanic like you.
wow
Yes, he is !
I am Not a car mechanic. I am a master plumber, industrial gas-fitter and steam boiler mechanic and I am enjoying all of your videos!!!!!!!!
You should have 1 million subscribers.
You are a great technician!! Thank you for the free training videos while I'm on quarantine. Keep up the great work!
WOW - WHAT A GREAT VIDEO ! I learned a ton,so thank you for that time and effort. In the medical community , when it comes down to making a diagnosis, we always tell ourselves " think horses, not zebras" - but if the horses don't show up, look for zebras.
The most successful story about the work of hybrid blocks! In Russia, hybrid cars are just beginning to appear. Timely video, thanks!
I wish all auto repair shops could be like this especially in LA! Great JOB!! Integrity in mechanics is rare1
Very, very entertaining. Following your thought process is invaluable. One of the best diag videos out there. Brilliant. Thank you.
What an awesome case, you are genius, I love how you teach!!!! You have helped me so much understanding blue prints!
I love those fixes. You almost feel lucky for finding them. I remember after selling my car a few years ago, the girl that bought it posted my name on Facebook and said help me. So I got ahold of her and met her after work with no tools. The car wouldn’t start and i just happen to see a broken ground wire and that was it . Luckily we were next to a goodwill and I bought a couple of tools and fixed it.
Sometimes we get lucky!
More skill than luck in your case
I work on cars for a living and have tackled many many super hard problems. I must say, your videos are excellent and I absolutely respect your thinking process and skills. The multiple communication loss codes may have lead me to that rabbit hole you speak of. Its hard on some cars to determine if this lead to that or that lead to this. Awesome video as usual and unbelievable skill!!😎
Luck comes with hard work. Love the clear and detailed description.
Awesome diagnosis and well explanation. Thank you all the way from NEW ZEALAND your videos help me to diagnose many car issue.
Very thorough diagnostics on a rather complex system. People may say, oh..he got lucky, but just how many would have even known to look in the that box, let alone the terminal that was creating the ill. Excellent job.
Excellent video Eric. Lots of useful information. Like how you always walk us through the wiring schematic. Very useful info. Hope all is well with yourself and family during these uncertain times. Thanks Artie ❤️
This video is awesome. My 03 hybrid is experiencing many of these same issues, so glad to have an idea of how to fix it.
I love your common sense systematic approach to find the problem you are a great teacher thanks for the great video
Really glad you gave Prof. John Kelly a shout out , , that channel is definitely the best scholastic automotive one that I know of .
Thank you Eric. Another great job. Have a blessed and safe week to you and your family.
I’m glad you are back!
I like seeing a video of yours popping up on my feed! Keep them coming. 👍
Great video sir! 👍 It's amazing how many problems a bit of negligence while installing the battery can cause!
Awesome job with the video, as usual. You're one of a handful of channels I load up when I'm working in my shop by myself. Makes me feel like I have company, which is a good thing these days with all the virus weirdness in the world. I hope you and yours are safe and healthy. Thanks so much for sharing your findings!
Thanks for making these videos, helps a lot with understanding diagnosis!
Wow, visual inspection is key. Great Job.
Eric, that is a crazy detail search only to find a lose wire problem. You are so patient and depth detail. Great find and fix. I truly wish you lived in the DFW area. You would have a new customer!
Very informative video thanks even 3 years later! Just bought an 08 HCH a few days ago and can see the battery or converter isn't working a 100% but not giving any problems yet.. thanks
Excellent diagnosis....step by step the best out there!
Your Hard work paid off
Really impressive lengths you went to to find that loose ground.
Amazing skills and attention to detail, electrical issues tend to baffle me, good job starting at the problem and back tracking to the solution, very impressive.
Thank you

Crazy the littlest things like a loose ground can haunt you. Nice job and diag process Eric this was a good one. Thanks for sharing ....Jay
It’s nice to win one once in a while. Good job as always. Thank you for sharing.
Even when it turned just and "easy fix" ... stunning job. Thanks for the vid.
very thorough and detailed process, thanks
Thanks for sharing Bro👍
At first it seemed very critical repair, but really that loose terminal made things easier😉
Stay safe Bro❤
Awesome work! I learned a bit more on reading electrical schematics. Working on a hybrid can be so intimidating especially when you have communication errors on your scanner and it’s funny how the problem had nothing to do with the hybrid system. Just a dumb ground to the 12v battery. The battery is always the heart of a car. Good find. No task is too great for you. You are the David to every Goliath when it comes to cars. Thank you so much for your videos. You and your talent are in valuable to this community. I’m a 60 yr old mom getting ready to work on my daughters 2013 Honda Civic Hybrid. Keep me in your prayers. Have a Happy New Year. Be blessed!
Excellent work Sir. Very professional. Thank you...
Wow man..your diag skills are on point..that’s why I love watching your videos..I always learn something, or a different way to think, and to me that’s priceless..Your planting seeds in the field and best believe they’re growing..on another note, when you got voltage on that relay after tightening the terminal..all I heard was Homer Simpson’s voice cheering Wooohooo!! Haha..Thank you for your knowledge Erik, que Dios te bendiga..See you on the next one brother! 🙏
i wish i was this smart. great job man. great job
I bet you were so happy to see the red light on that power probe after tightening the wire. Excellent hybrid lesson.
Yes I was very happy!
Excellent video Eric thanks keep them coming
you can be best teacher i learned a lot from you thank you
Thanks for sharing man,keep up the great work!
You’re one smart Technician👍🏽
And i still dont get how scotty kilmer has over a million subscribers. You and the other great technicians like scannerdanner, SMA, PHA, etc deserve it
you are great teacher.
Hey continua haciendo más videos así de interesante la neta uno de los mejores en TH-cam
Dear you are genius many thanks. I learn from you many things
What a great story, another illustration of how skilled technicians have the thoughtful mindset to recognize a lucky charm. And, how a minor mistake by a prior tech can lead to problems that take hours to figure out.
Thanks again for watching!
great content about the high voltage unit and wiring 👍👍
Great and very informative training video.,i learned a lot and i appreciate you skills using all you diagnostic tools..looking to learn more from your video uploads..Keep up the good work , am sure a lot of people out there are learning too..very helpful..God bless
Fantastic diagnostic video awesome case this is the real-life of a technician on everyday problems. I am sharing your video on my EV page on FaceBook for others to learn well done .
Thank you
You are good Eric. Thank you
I really like the way you explain things it’s very educational to somebody like myself great video in fact I follow your videos all the time now it just shows how somebody or forgets to tighten the nut and bolt can cost somebody else an off a lot of money all the best mate great video
Thanks for the video Eric it's teach me so much, great 👌 Job .
Nice find! Keep up the great videos thanks!
I was a dealership tech for 10 years. ASE Master Technician. Before digging in on an electrical problem always check the basics first. Trust me I've been burned chasing rabbits several times myself. All the technology in the world can't replace the basics...
Amazing info and video great job.
nice job great to see you back love your techniches thanks
You have no idea the amount of problems loose ground battery cables cause , that's the first thing i do is check for old rusty loose ground wires before i search any other electrical problems, this has saved me countless hours of labor and headaches
K buen video amigaso saludos y gracias por compartir tus conocimientos mis respetos eres genial BENDICIONES
Very informative
I like the thought process.
great video, a ton of information i was wondering about on my 2005 civic hybrid, many thanks
Fantastic diagnosis...❤️❤️👌 good job....❤️❤️
Keep it goin wit the great videos bro!!!
A Good Man with A good 👍 Guiadence thank you for most helpful video I tried and I solved my car problem same like it
Dude, you did soo much and you are really good at explaining it.
There is one more small fuse box for the IMA system. 3 fuses. ImA 1, IMA 2, and brake booster. Located bottom, left hand corner of the battery. I don't think you ever got to it.
My car left me stranded the other day with same symptoms. Got lucky watching another video about this Fuze box, changed those 3 fuses and was able to drive away. Drove an hour after, hasn't come back....yet....
Great once again 👍👍
Just amazing sir. Regards pal.
Thanks for another great video, really enjoyed it as always. 👍 👍
About 12 mins in “I’m not really sure what that’s about”. You got my sub bro. Trying to diagnose lady friends crZ. What a pain
Nicely done! Awesome video, I was guessing bad battery connection from the beginning of the diagnosis, I just helped a family member out with same issue almost, he had loose primary battery terminals from previous owners letting car sit for 8 months till sale! Owner said the high voltage battery just got replaced at dealership, but won't run! I see this almost weekly, first thing I ask any car owner " recent battery change, how long ago & who did it!" 97% admit battery changed within a year, I get under hood and show them the cake batter at terminals! I'm in Maine and everyone says thier battery can't cause this "it's brand NEW" ""YEAH RIGHT""! GO buy yourselves those green and red felt disc at a store & a packet of dielectric grease for a buck and voila problem solve! Boom fixed now pay me & hears a head slap for being numb!!! Nice to see the PoWeR Probe used too! Thanks
excellent always said you make a great teacher.thanks
Great video. I'll take it a step further and went to fuse 62, and it was burnt. I believe that happened when the jumper cables were put on the 12v battery. When I did, the battery showed 8 volts but was taking a high rate of charge. Anyway, replaced the fuse and wa-la. All systems back online, or seems to be, at this time. I like how you do your videos, very informative. Thx. Subscribed, and grateful

Si, un gran lujo! Por eso lo comparti. Gracias!
Thanks brother ,you are great
Nice video! My father use to drive that car, after selling, he buys another hybrid and then an Accord, now he drive a CR-V. I have a Civic since 2007 and as you can see, we like honda.
Man you should think to open a mechanic school (not for fix stuff), in order to teach how to find the way fixing those problems (sorry for my english, i am learning)
Nice job....well done....thanks in advance.
