Come along with Eric O as he goes on a mobile call to an other shop to have a look at a 2004 Hyundai Santa Fe that keeps blowing the ECU fuse. A little bit of research and a logical diagnostic approach gets this one nailed down pretty quick! -Enjoy!!

Ok so my 2016 Santa Fe keeps blowing multiple fuses like the fuel gage and speedometer. When this happens it always won't come out of park. I'm able to get it going by sticking the key into the shiftlock override but this keeps happening? Any thoughts? Thank you!
Do you still do or have time to do mobile diagnostics
Reverse is not working on 2006 santa fe
Exactly what I was looking for! Thanks 😁
You got it 👍 💪 👌 good job…
I’ve used a Telcom tool we call a breakdown. It works perfectly when you have a solid short between two primary wire conductors. If your second conductor is the chassis (short to ground) it doesn’t work. The breakdown tool welds the short and then the tone will only travel from the tool to the short and not beyond the short. This is used in cables with hundreds of conductors and is awesome when your affected circuit is miles long. You must remove the “component” at the far end (the customer house In Telcom) then you GIVE HER THE BEANS!!! Weld that short with high voltage and amperage, estimate the distance in ohms to feet, and follow your pickup coil right to it. This would be risky in an automotive application. But hey follow the smoke 😂 I feel like your power-probe tool may have similar limitations and maybe works well if you can isolate two individual wires that are solidly shorted together (less than 10ohms) and connect the two leads to them. I do not recommend applying the weld it together part on a car though 😂
My mother always said work smarter not hard, so lift the vehicle
Nice find On the Completely burnt wires Eric O I been working in a 2000 4runner that keeps blowing the running light 10 amp fuse and I still can't find were the short is been 4 days shorts are not always easy to find the engine bay fuse box on 4runners runs straight into the firewall great video as always Eric O @SouthMainAutoRepairLLC
Thanks!

Rather than you feeling embarrased about filming your fault tracing you should invite the other guys to follow along. That way they may learn other tecniques which they can employ at a later date to actually solve the problem. Bit two faced if they smile at your filming then ask you to help with their problem.
Thank you very much bro I save heaps of money with this video!
Your Amizon page is down today.
What it that fuse braker called.
I want one..?
Good job
Amazing
Nice diagnostic. You are good my friend
The ol wriggle test eh. Put on some 50s and start shakin'
It's amazing to me that most shops lack basic Electrical fundamentals. Kudos Eric O
Be sure to keep those cut zip cayenne and sticking straight up so someone can rip the wrist open when they lean on the radiator mount
Good job
If Hyundai were responsible for designing humans, if you broke your toe, your brain would turn off.
Lucky you say? Ever heard the expression "luck counts but you can’t count on luck"?
Your a Good man sir.
luck favors the prepared
What was the diagnostic equipment you used. ….make and model of tools. If you may please. By the way hats off to you sir
"classic reach around"
"If I can do it, you can do it", unless you're the mechanic at this other shop.
Perfect example of a mechanic vs a technician right here.
one of the leaders in youre field. together with youre personality. makes you almost addictive
I had a Datsun that did that back in the 90s I paid 50 bucks for it never found the short
I put a headlight in place of the fuse and drove it about 50k miles before it went to the bone yard
The old fuse would blow about once of twice a day the guy I got it from had it to 2 shops they couldn’t find it because it wouldn’t blow there
So even when it’s not shorted all the time light bulb trick does work
Ah yes, the classic reach around causes the breaker to blow. xD
Can a bad fuel pump keep blowing a fuse ?
Wham bam, magic smoke released…
very good video thank you
Have a 2011 Hyundai Santa Fe whose radio cuts off and on for no reason. Any ideas?
How cheap can you go on a clamp meter for DIY and still get things done? I hate to risk my 10amp multimeter.
Too many cooks in the kitchen will ruin the stew
You rock bud makeing house calls like a real auto dr. Lol.
Where do you find all of your diagrams and pictures; I am trying to locate the crank sensor and camshaft sensor for a 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe 2.7L; thanks!
Maybe it doesn’t short due to the breaker. You have said in the past that you don’t trust those breakers.
Throw a 30 amp in it! Southern style. Lol
HI
You are pretty good. i have an issue with my 2002 hyundai santa fe 2.7l, it is sparking at the harmonic balance. the engine has lost most of it power. not firing on two cylinder from the same coil. changed the coil pack . same problem.
no i dont live in the US. any ideas, some tech say the harmonic balance is bad??????????
If I can do it you can do it, BS. Kinda like saying if Michael Jordan can do it you can do it .
So I neeeeeed help lol, so Hyundai decided they were going to put the ac clutch in the big ecu block and I dont want to mess with it and in order for them to even look at it is gonna be 175 bucks and I really dont want to pay for that and I'm really pissed cuz it just broke on me in the beginning of the summer time😂( my bad luck at its finest). Do you think it's an ac fuse? I noticed the ac isnt blowing humid sticky air when the ac switch is turned on. The only reason I know about that is because I had an 03 lancer and the clutch coils were bad and I had to manually enguage it with a bar but this time my hyundai is a free spinning one but it's not humid when I switch it on… is it the fuse? The clutch? The ac wire? And how would I go about the fuse if it's in the ecu?
Im not sure if you will see this comment but i need some help, the ECU-C fuse keeps blowing on my 2010 kia rio
Your an absolute legend
Looks like a junk yard part down there. Its tagged in yellow paint marker!
A little detail, when you first read the current, you said 90 milliamps, but your meter read 0.90 amps, i.e., 900mA.
What website is all that good info on?
Power is nothing without control! Good catch, I'm sure that other shop was going insane over that, critters or failure?
Can you tell me why "when I put my 2006 Hyundai sonata 3.3 v6 in drive (D) it skips to drive2 (D2)", please? Could it be something with the ECU?
