    This guys car looks like he has been out burying bodies in the LasVegas desert. Don't look in the trunk, you might see something you don't want to see. LOL

  8. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Chad Smith says:

  12. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Daniel Puig says:

    'm subscribed and have been for a while now. lol You sure do have a lot of problems with broken wires. One of those cameras that can see through walls might help. ๐Ÿ˜

    I soldered alligator clips to one set of voltmeter leads so I could jump a light load across it when taking digital readings. For when you suspect those stray voltages that mess with you.

  15. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Bob Baurhyte says:

    eric…I've never seen you so unsure with an issue like this. Glad you finally got to the broken wire.

  16. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Tucker Latham says:

    Every time our boy touches this thing, it releases a shower of filth

  17. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars dirty grizzly says:

  18. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Edwin Semidey says:

  22. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Kester Williams says:

    I always choose you three to watch one question for big dummy would it not be easier ๐Ÿค” to just eliminate some of them electronics? ๐Ÿค” after all it's not rocket science.

  23. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jim Bob says:

    Why don't you remove the fender liner for easier access?????

  24. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Yawwee Shalimar says:

    YES !!!!! Finally a video that is more than 5 minutes to fix the problem !!!! And this one is a MULTI problem fix !!! Went thru a big cup of Krups machine of McDonalds coffee insert, and it tasted great with some chocolate wafers to compliment it !!! Our (yes, our – you are not the only one diagnosing the problem) sleuthing is going along nicely and uncovering bad things that have happened over time !!!! I saw Mrs.O.'s heart lovingly melt when you said the only mistake you never made was marring her – priceless !!!! A bad wire so far, gonna fix that. Then on to the other codes and more sleuthing again. Can't wait for part two !!! Going to fill the Krups water tank because it will take at least two cups of coffee and a few Dunkin Donuts of white cream, blueberry, and jelly fillings to get this vehicle all repaired and an inspection sticker slapped on !!!!!!!!!! ๐Ÿคช๐Ÿคจ๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ๐Ÿ˜ค๐Ÿ‘

  25. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars David Westervelt says:

    Eric I will have to say from a mechanic of 35 yrs I tip my hat to you sir. Much high respect of all the electronic experience you show. Also love all the respect and love you show to Mrs O. Keep up the great videos cause I will have to say I have learned a lot from you on electronic diagnosis. Sometimes it can be a nightmare. Have yourself a great day from Kansas. ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ love your channel!!

  26. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars tex77tex77 says:

    We all need a Mrs. O!!!

  27. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Wolley Segap says:

    That was one wild adventure Eric. Holy smoke.

  28. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Wolley Segap says:

    Lol….Mrs. O said "don't mess up."

  29. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Gavin Valentine says:

    lol in the Uk an inspection is an M.O.T and if you drive a car with an expired one cops can take the car off you.

  30. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Alex Carr says:

    Driving an car with no inspection is bad. Getting an ticket is not the bad. Getting into an accident with an unsafe car is the bad. This could cost 100 times the ticket cost.

  31. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars SaltyGinger says:

    Is there a part 2 on changing the wire harness and stuff?

  32. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars GrimmReefer says:

    With the very expensive scan tools and database memberships, "If I can you do it so can you…" doesn't really make much sense.

  33. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Shane Harrison says:

    Had a few of those folks who dont understand what and why things need to be done as they are . It's tough on the guy trying to fix the car when the owner give them a rough time and had plenty that had to be towed elsewhere.

  34. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Sam Rugtiv says:

    Well done Eric soak him good

  35. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Erika Carrillo says:

    why are you going into this persons business I thought you taped whether you guys can fix the car or not smh

  36. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Rob Chase says:

    Would GM tech spend this much time?

  37. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars gunga din says:

    More Beauty, less Beast. That smile of your cinematographer is just knockout.

  38. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Richard Gomm says:

    Fuel efficiency just doubled after removing half a ton of sand from on too of the dust panels!

  39. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Greg McKinney says:

    Has this car spent a month in a river bottom?

  40. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Antonio Claudio Michael says:

  41. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Daddyoh says:

    Was looking forward to you pulling apart the wiring harness. Great troubleshooting skills bro. You're the man.

  42. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars W Greathouse says:

    I hope you charged them by the pound for the dirt that came out of that car.

  43. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Ronald Deeble says:

  44. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars N8v Physique says:

    i have a 2015 Chevy Malibu ltz turbocharge. p0301 is the code i get on scanner. i took it to the shop before for cylinder head gasket repair. then i was still having issues soon after getting it out of shop. took it back and they told me its the Cadillac converter. i have been told by friend and he thinks they're full of shit. i dont have any clue but i dont trust that shop. if somehow i can get in communication maybe via video of my problem.

  45. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Sam Conway says:

    Slow down to go fast,,,,, yes sir

  46. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Hola! Tony Desousa says:

    I have a 2015 Chev Malibu with 177000 km and it shows code 0089 and code
    0016. Code 0089 says it's the fuel pressure regulator and the 0016
    says it's the bank 1 camshaft position sensor. I called the dealership for the price of the FPR and they tell me they don't have one on the computer. A dummy like me believes him because I don't find any videos of anyone working on the 2015 which seems to be different than the others in the engine. Any information would be a appreciated as I have no clue where to find, even the line to fuel pressure test. Thanks

  47. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Russell Houston says:

    Does this work on 2013 chevy malibu?
