INJ4_F (injector 4 fault) in the PID monitor list would have saved you some time. You can see, in real time, the PCM identify and report/respond to faults. PID may be listed differently depending on scan tool. It's really worth the time to select and monitor PIDs related to the symptoms and active (and stored) codes. Ford FMEM (failure mode effects management) was quite sophisticated for its time, and very reliable. Ford IDS will pre-select PIDs for you, on many models depending on what system you're working on.
Love the way you show putting fender covers on before you start working on the vehicle. Shows respect for the customer! Imagine if in every video you started by showing the installation of fender covers! Imagine the effect on other shop owners. Imagine the effect on prospective customers. Respect the customer. Respect their vehicle. RESPECT! What the world needs to learn. Why not "you" to start teaching Basic Respect? Lessons in Respect & Professionalism as well as automobile repair! Thank you Sir!
I could watch these diag videos all day. The professor is great at explaining things so even a complete novice like me can understand . Would love it if these diag videos had a catalog I could search. Keep these great videos coming please.
Wow, what a great video Sherwood, you took us with you deep and dirty without knowing what the result would be. What a brilliant learning video. Thankyou for all that you do.
I can confirm this is the case with my autel working on late 90s early 2000s porsches you see a lot more live data in generic obd2 vs the manufacturer specific selection
Coil was open but computer is not smart enough to realize that. It just knows there is a problem and the programmers decided attempting to unstick the injector by turning it on and off is the best option. Kinda like when we get that dead spot in the starter solenoid, we first hit it with a hammer.
I just started watching your videos about a week ago but like myself you like to prove beyond a doubt when possible what the problem is before you replace parts.Great knowledge of the scope,that’s what I’m trying to brush up on.Thanks for your willingness to help others,God bless you and your shop…
There will be times where tests for certain modules are not shown in the module itself. You may need to back out to the service options or hot functions.
I wish more of the motoring public understood how complicated modern vehicles are. You do great work. I’d love to know a place I could go to like yours. I really enjoy your channel. Thanks Royalty!
Thanks for this one. Love the real live diag video, like the scannerdanner or Eric O format. Start from scratch, and see where it brings you, we all make mistakes, thats reality. But that are the best learning moments imo.😊
This long-form tutorial where EVERYTHING you needed to do / contemplate in order to make the right diagnosis is fantastic ; because it takes us into the process real world style ! Additionally , the Sesame Street teaching cue / reference was AWESOME 👏🏼 ! It does the trick !! Thanks mate ! 👊🏼 🔥 💻 📈 👑
Awesome job Sherwood thank you for going deep and finding the underline issue. I enjoy learning thank you. You are a great teacher. I wish I had you as an instructor in the many different automotive schools I’ve been through.
Our Autel MK908 had the search function in live data, really useful sometimes, especially on Vw or Audi vehicles where there can be thousands of pids. Excellent diag - need more techs like you guys in the industry, keep up the content it’s been awesome!
Very nice diagnosis and the use of a scope to narrow it down. I love that Escope. I wish I could justify the expense of one but as a DIY'er, it's not practical at all.
Friend still has one, Never an issue, The 24 Valve has a gas pedal recall. They had an issue with water coming in heater area, You get a flap and seal the cowl up he said. a lock switch that gets wet. the trans vent rubber needs a slice with a razor so it wont burp fluid. Putting rear springs from a 99 back taxi is a must for saggy springs..
I just had the thought about and injector balance test from the drivers seat, since it's a Ford? I love the old school approach and thank you for sharing your wisdom!
Great diagnosis, however as a DIY, I would check injector resistance on #4, & # 5. If open, replace injector because it is bad. Also repair insulation. I would also pull # 4 & # 5 spark plugs to examine them. Do a tune up if needed. You said it was a 2002, but don't remember if you mentioned the mileage.
you can use an injector tester that u plug to the injector and check amps while you energize it, also you can supply power and ground to injector( its just a coil) and if amps go up its bad if the current goes down its good. this is how all coil windings work and its a quick test, learned it years ago
Yours will search for pids just hit the drop down tab at the top then the search icon. Also the power balance test is sometimes under hot functions. Love the vids. Thanks for using ats tools love it when I see them being used.
Great diag process. Without full info on ECM programming you need to reverse engineer the ECM strategies. I was hoping you would do the dropout timing test and you didn’t disappoint. Good procedure to test for what you’re not sure of and what to consider for possible failures.
Good video who would have thought Ford had that type of strategy way back then 😇 Also Sherwood instead of searching through the factory data pids you can always go to Global OBD2 data and view fewer pids. Just a little tip.
Now wait a minute. This isn’t old school for this old fart. Thought maybe You was going to have to dig the old brick out and hook up the Sun machine! And I go back way further than that, but I like what You do. Just jerking your chain a little. 😍😍
You're exactly right always my frustrations of knowing what the strategy is from the manufacturer for that year make and model that information is definitely definitely not readily available it's like it's some big secret
I love seeing a US GENERAL roll cart storing $20k worth of diagnostic equipment. I’ve had mine for almost 10 years and still going strong with heavy abuse.
Great video. As far as the search bar try tapping the down arrow at the top of the screen while in the live data mode. Thats what I have to do on my cheap Autel.
I have a 92 Jeep, and went down the bad ECU rabbit hole, even in the 90's ECU's are surprisingly sophisticated, the ECU is constantly running diagnostic code checking for bad injectors, voltage out of range for engine sensors, looking at battery voltage and adjusting coil dwell and will try to keep the engine running down to a battery voltage of 5v, has limpin mode for a bad MAP sensor and setting the idle speed looks at barometric pressure, RPM, vehicle speed, power steering pressure, AC, map sensor, coolant and air intake temp and TPS. I wouldn't be surprised if the ECU had the ability to turn off a bad injector to save the cat but I kinda doubt it since the ECU can't tell you which injector is bad or detect a misfire, but I bet if the engineers had more I/O pins on CPU they could have implemented it.
Look in generic OBD II and go to mode 6. Misfire monitor should be there. I think test id 53, Its been a while for me and I think often not much luck with mode 6 and its just a real pain.
I got a MS906 Pro-TS and it has the search feature. It isn't yours obviously... but you did you check to see if there is an available update for it? Maybe an update removed it? Weird that it doesn't have the search feature.
Those snap on meter are garbage always jumping around even when leads are disconnected. I’m a tried and true fluke guy and I have my reasons! Everyone trying to sell me meters all the time I’m like no thanks I’ll stick to my fluke 😂
The ground side of the connector could be burnt. You could remove the separator on the connector to get a better connection on the plug. The red inner part of the connector can be removed.
Id have tested at the ecm connector as soon as i seen burnt wires and flakey ground. And voltage drop tested tge ecm grounds to the body. And started w checking battery voltage, alternator voltage, fuel tank at leasr 25% full. And Relative compression at least wot listening test. Then drop tested unplugging coils and injectors to confirm which cylinders are acting up. I think what happened was coil shorted on injector and burnt out driver, then burnt further until coil was open. So it was shorted then opned and took ecm w it in the process possibly. I did think of the ecm shutdown strategy as possibility, so id have put injector in and seen if control stopped cutting out
The ECU is always measuring the resistance of the injector coils and if it doesn't match as you were using the test lead and injector tester which I think is not 16 ohm or at least 5% in range, the ecu will go in limp mode.
I guess as Mr Sherwood is saying, the ecu does see some sort of resistance, and it is not like a dead short or open circuit, so it almost tries to auto correct these funny measurements and by doing so every 30 sec there will be a mis fire condition. I think the software engineer figured if he programs a mis fire on that particular faulty cylinder the technician will eventually get to the conclusion that there is a fault by comparing resistance values of different injector coils.
@@johanbotha9889If that is the case then there could still be some bad wiring, and with the plug disconnected the ECU should detect a circuit open. If there is still resistance with the plug out, then it could mean a corroded harness.
@@Stoney3K Correct, but remember Mr Sherwood couldn't understand why the problem persist while he used his test lamp and injector tester. The ecu is programmed to give a code of mis fire when an open circuit or short occurs. Those ecu's are not as precise as the modern cars because of memory chips and advanced technology and it does detect a problem, the only difference is the programmer didn't physically put a code with the wording of open circuit or short circuit. As I say you need a lot of memory to write a certain language and I think the technology limited him so the best way to assist the technician is by simply saying mis fire on the given injector the fault is on.
I would have used a noid light to check circuit function on the injector driver circuit. I would also have used some propane around the manifold and injector first to check for vacuum leaks, then the noud light.
I am by no means a technician. Yet I watch these trouble shooting videos in ernest. Swap-tronics? Known good switched with the perceived bad? Was it possible to move the connectors from one to another? Honestly, not a clue. Thanks for the insight.
That would have been my first strategy instead of scratching my head and scoping for an hour. Swap injectors 4 and 5. If the miss moves you are certain the injector is bad. 10 minutes of diagnostic time.
some times we over react and bring out the big guns been their done that, i like to use basic test with simple tools first. also people see misfire and go direct to ignition. when i have those misfire i do wide open throttle crank and listen to the cadence of engine cranking thats my first divide and concur. is it mechanical or electrical, quick first test
You also have to remember you were using a test light and a night light they are not the same as using an injector with a resistance of at least 15 ohms that in fact would be part of the strategy based upon the current draw at that point in time and more than likely that would be seen in the computer in the feedback of that circuit
LOL, calling that new-fangled electronic tester old school made me feel really old, when I took automotive school we used the Sun engine analyzer and that was high-tech to us.
IN THE EVENT THE INJECTORS STARTED TO SHORT (16Ω down to let's say 5 Ω) that would cause the current through the circuit to increase yet not enough to blow the fuse and of course possibly making the wire get real warm . Is the injector continues to fail and go to short-circuit it goes open circuit at the last moment which puts a toll on the wiring the current draw goes up not necessarily enough to blow the fuse at that point and it may be too much for the driver(transistor) inside the computer and there is some damage also also the feedback from that circuit could be part of a strategy to actually shut the injector off at a certain point in time
When we sense an injector not firing, we turn it off for a half minute, then turn it back on hoping that the initial surge current will free up/ unstick the injector. When we sense the injector not firing again, we keep repeating. We probably should use a hammer to unstick it, but instead we use the computer and surge current.
This car definitely has a NO FIRE/NO FUEL Strategy. Fords has had that for a very long time. Another idea... You could have used your scope to check for control on that open injector: Use your lead in the power side of the injector (or @ the Battery +), then the ground on the control side of the injector. It will show a square wave (most cases) going from 12+volt to 0v and back
There is a grey arrow that was at the top center of the screen during viewing of live data. Click that and the search bar will pop up. Someone collapsed it accidentally I'm sure.
I have seen people use signal wires from injectors or sensors to tie it in with a remote car starter module, and failure occurs over time from a bad connection, corrosion or poor solder and sealing.
I think your staff works on FLATRATE? I wish your videos were also on FLATRATE time constraints, with that said, I marked this video as GREEN in my library which is TOP DRAWER training, thanks for all your videos.
What surprises me is that the PCM didn't set an open circuit code for that bad injector, since that is one of the most basic tests the computer can do. PCMs were able to test for open and short more or less when OBD was invented.
I would have repeated the test light from battery positive to the injector control wire at the computer cleared the codes and see what would have happened. if the computer continued controlling the injector then you know the computer is good.
3:29 search bar is on your unit by going to the top of the screen. You will see a arrow down touching and pull down will reveal the search bar. Your welcome
I wish I had someone like Sherwood to learn from when I was coming up in this business. My education was 100% trial by fire.
I agree !
5 Years in and I still feel like im learning this way
Autel has the Ford power balance test and it works really well. They hide it under hot functions.

Hard to beat a good mystery. 👍
Wow, what a great video Sherwood, you took us with you deep and dirty without knowing what the result would be. What a brilliant learning video. Thankyou for all that you do.
If you press the arrow at the top/centre of screen on autel while viewing live data it should bring up the search option 👍
You probably have to go into regular obd2 mode 6 to see misfire data on the older models.
Ah that could be 🧐🤔
I can confirm this is the case with my autel working on late 90s early 2000s porsches you see a lot more live data in generic obd2 vs the manufacturer specific selection

It's under cylinder power balance under special functions on that Autel, used it on older Ford F150 trucks as well.
There will be times where tests for certain modules are not shown in the module itself. You may need to back out to the service options or hot functions.
Love your teaching skills and willingness to acknowledge your errors. Best way to learn is from other's mistakes.

This looks like the same taurus wagon that was in a rainman ray video a week or so back😂
Great diag process. Without full info on ECM programming you need to reverse engineer the ECM strategies. I was hoping you would do the dropout timing test and you didn’t disappoint. Good procedure to test for what you’re not sure of and what to consider for possible failures.
i am surprised you didn't switch injectors to see if you have the same problem with that injector and cylinder.
Love this stuff, crazy stuff, nice diag! Regards from Massachusetts!
Great video!! The Autel IM608 has the search function on it.
Excellent work
Good video who would have thought Ford had that type of strategy way back then 😇
Also Sherwood instead of searching through the factory data pids you can always go to Global OBD2 data and view fewer pids.
Just a little tip.
Not sure for one that old, but there're usually PIDs to indicate whether the PCM is currently disabling each injector. Great video.
Fine work sir, your a master of your craft

I have found on Fords misfire detected will shut down the injector driver for cylinder that has a misfire
Cleared code runs like a champ

What is “dead skipping”? I always hear you say that, but is that local jargon for a misfire?
LOL, calling that new-fangled electronic tester old school made me feel really old, when I took automotive school we used the Sun engine analyzer and that was high-tech to us.
Very interesting video. Long way from points and carbs.
Is this the Vulcan V-6 like is in my '96 Ranger, or the Yamaha engine put on some Tauruses?

Thank you for sharing your intellect
how did those wires get fused in that ignition coil? seems like the amp is off somehwere
My launch x431 pro dyno has the search function
I have seen people use signal wires from injectors or sensors to tie it in with a remote car starter module, and failure occurs over time from a bad connection, corrosion or poor solder and sealing.
I think your staff works on FLATRATE? I wish your videos were also on FLATRATE time constraints, with that said, I marked this video as GREEN in my library which is TOP DRAWER training, thanks for all your videos.
also take the old injector supply it ground and power and watch amps with amp meter and you will see what im saying is true hope this helps
Old school, I have a 68 GTX.
What surprises me is that the PCM didn't set an open circuit code for that bad injector, since that is one of the most basic tests the computer can do. PCMs were able to test for open and short more or less when OBD was invented.

Assuming an unfamiliar car is too old for a given technology often doesn't end well.
The Ford Five hundred I think was a Volvo platform vehicle
I'd like know more about scope u used in video
I would have repeated the test light from battery positive to the injector control wire at the computer cleared the codes and see what would have happened. if the computer continued controlling the injector then you know the computer is good.
3:29 search bar is on your unit by going to the top of the screen. You will see a arrow down touching and pull down will reveal the search bar.

The wire is melted so it probably did fail short until the PCM blew the short clear
You forgot to snap the throttle when you were looking at the ignition waveforms
👍that was an interesting one
