Hello Super Fans! and welcome back to the finalization episode of this F-150 With that Evap temperature sensor fault that blew up the Ac compressor on this thing, I'm assuming if you're here, you have watched, uh, all four, or five, or six or twelve other videos on this particular truck. Uh, if you missed any of those, just check the link in the description down below and it'll take you back in time to all those other videos. That being said, uh, we're moving on with the finalized stage of reassembly on this truck. I've got the dash back in with the new Hvac control box down below which has a new evaporator core which has a new evaporator temperature sensor.
And yes, we had to install all that stuff just to get a temp sensor installed because Bird Motor Company does not sell just the temperature sensor. Don't ask me why. I don't know, I wouldn't done it that way, but I'm also not a multi-billion dollar company. So that being said, we're moving on.
Um, the only thing left for me to do on this is a couple little trim piece items secure shifter or center console, and uh, the passenger side seat. I will clear the trouble codes, wipe down all my forensic evidence, fingerprints everywhere, and uh, we're good to go. so stay tuned and have no fear this one's gonna be relatively short compared to the other videos. So let's see, I've gotta fish out those two, uh, weird little bolts because those are the ones that secure the oh handle to the A-pillar over there on the passenger side.
So let's get these guys in. since I've already got the the pillar panel on and then we can move on to this console shifter and the seats after I find my my socket. That's the one. Okay, okay, let's move on over.
Yeah, let's see. let's just go in the hole. Click. Oh yeah.
okay. I think that's everybody. Yeah, all that's done. All that's done.
All this is done. Steering columns done. This is all done. Yeah, let's uh.
let's go ahead and get the console in here and the shifter. and then I'll throw that seat in. We're good. I want to get this done today.
I'm I'm staying a little late. I'm after hours, but uh. I need to get this truck finished. It's been here for way too long.
Ah, there it is. That's my guy. I'll throw this in. Wretched.
And of course, I must not neglect to connect the connections once. This is, uh, set up in position here and I have made an error. This shift cable needs to go through this side. Let's see if there's enough slack in it to bend it around without breaking it.
Oh, that would really, really suck. Well, we're reaching critical. it's gonna make it there. We go.
That's what I'm talking about. Okay, that's in position. Let's plug it in and then, uh, and let's go in the shifter, plug it in, and then bolt it down. That's not the shifter, that's a cup holder.
There It is. way back there. Yeah, okay. I'll do that in a minute.
Oh, pinched wire is not good. and then this clips in that guy. Don't make a liar out of me. Connector clip. There we go. You know. this car is a classic example of why some people really shouldn't go into the shop, because once you see your car in this condition, you'll never look at it the same again. Most people aren't mentally prepared to experience seeing their entire interior, uh, torn to pieces and rightfully so.
It's not something you know we're accustomed to looking at. You gonna go in there. What? I can't see anything there? That's that's right. Line up the little dowel pin and there should be one pin on this side somewheres.
a couple pins on this side. Line up, you bastards. Okay, got it. got it.
and connected. Powering on. Okay, let's uh. four bolts in that.
Let's throw those guys in and we'll finish bolting this up and we'll bolt this guy up down here. I'll just do this one right now. with that socket. I want another.
There it is. See these. go to the glove box lid. This one.
That one's gonna go there now. I have decided. yeah, there's one. there's one.
That one's far away, but I can reach it. I got long fingers there and an extension. All right. we're good.
Okay, oh, I don't think you guys missed all that. There's a steering wheel in the way. Uh, sorry. more trim panels.
I choose this one. No, I don't. No those last because I need the trim panel that goes on top of this. That one's next.
What was I thinking? Now this was a real sob to get out because there's vertical clips I didn't have much space to remove. This is kind of like a little puzzle piece going on here. Why oh hell no. What is this? You know what? I have an idea.
it's a good idea. Let's take this bolt back out. and then we'll take this thing. Oh, we're gonna take more bolts.
Back out. That one and this one again. Okay, now that comes this way. that gives me space for this there.
that's uh. that's more better. Click: Okay, okay. that's good.
Two more. Go in there. you can find those. I think they're outside gravity.
There's two. Okay, um. I don't need this because the new Hvac Hvac box had one on it. so that one just goes in my stash.
Let's see, everybody's done here. Shoe: Let's put this trim back looking good. Um, okay. I need to go back to the driver's side.
How oh my. Gopro ran into a Gopro. That was fun. There it is.
There's that trim piece. Okay, this one goes right down there. Don't give me guff. That's in okay torx bit time and we'll put the padding back down there.
That goes in there. My boy's cup holder and I hit you with a Gopro again. Customer states mechanic was rummaging through his car. That stuff actually happens.
I'm not kidding. Cool. All right. that works.
Let's see. all this stuff came from the glove box so I can put that back. Registration Airbag Warning Light Bulbs More light bulbs. Uh. owner's manual. Get in there more owner's manual. Good bio hazard. I don't want that.
Oh no. What have I done? I've arranged it. Too sloppy. Let's try this again.
Bad, right? Jack Usage and stowage. Okay, okay. let's see. we have one cup holder, insert two more right there and I've got one more bolt for this console and then I can.
uh, get this. uh. seat in and we're good. Give it a quick wipe me down, we're out of here.
Hey, stop that click. Let's see. I'll take my gloves back. there's one and I don't need the pry bar anymore.
Um, this is all glove box stuff that goes down there. Okay, we're done in the back seat. Actually, this is that's now. Doors in the door.
Okay, pile of tools. You're coming with me. and half this video is me walking around the car. I failed.
I put the cell phone holder in before putting the liner in there. Redemption achieved. These are really nice too. I got one for my truck, but it's on like a like a dangly bit so the phone sticks out to like here.
I know none of you actually care, but I thought it was cool. Okay, don't need that. That's the F250 sensor that I tried to reuse. This is not getting lost.
That's my one extra. Keep one extra every time. Two bolts. Two bolts.
Oh here. Don't forget that. Oh heavy. Yeah.
okay. Lean back and plug it in with our singular ginormous plug. Oh, I was wrong. We do have to go into the back seat because I need to bolt this down.
Those are not tight yet, but I want to start all four of them before applying torque. So click idiot. All right, this is the end. This truck can now go in peace.
Doritos. Okay, uh. one real quick wipe everything down and uh. this thing's getting parked.
After I retrieve my other gopro, give me that it was recording on. uh. super high speed fast motion. The whole job for most of it.
Battery died a couple times. Wow. So I think this video is going to be like 10 minutes. Almost completely uncut, uncut.
I don't think I have a I don't think I've paused this thing once. Maybe once. I don't know. It's been minimal.
Not like usual. Maybe I'm becoming less camera shy. Come here. Okay, I need towels and uh.
glass cleaner. What do I got? Glass cleaner. Glass cleaner. Oh, I got this look.
Anybody who watches the Ave Channel you know about uh, Prudence the safety goat? This isn't This isn't Prudence, but uh. I think it's a similar go. I haven't named it yet, but I will. This is how I feel sometimes.
Okay, stay. what if I can clean it with bug spray now? Um, rust stuff? No blue shower Maintenance cleaner? What is ozone depleting? flammable? safe on most plastics. This was a free 99 gift that somebody sent me. I haven't used it yet.
Directions hold six eight inches away. Saturate solid surface. Use a brush, Remove heavy soils. Yeah, this is cleaner. I'll use this. This is perfect stuff for this job I think. But before we determine that, we always do a test spray to make sure it doesn't like melt our surfaces as uh, things happen. Wow.
Ooh this is nice that does a really good job. Oh sweet, I'm in heaven. I have a good spray cleaner. It washes off all my forensic evidence.
Oh look at that. Yep, now we're making 45 degrees. That's where we should be, Not 22 degrees. 22 degrees would be bad because it blows up your compressor.
I didn't touch this, but I'm gonna wipe it down anyway. I think that's it for my fingerprints and for this video. We're all done here. All right guys.
I'm closing it out, we're backing it out and we're parking it and then I'm going home. Uh, this truck is all done there. That's that's good. Hey, did I miss anything? You guys see it? I miss clean that too.
I think I missed that. Cool all right fellas. That's a wrap. Thank you guys for watching this video or all of them.
Say the truth. I certainly appreciate it. What else did I forget? All right guys, that's a wrap. I'd like to thank all of you again for like the 12th time on this car for watching these videos.
I certainly appreciate it. Let me know what you think about this in the comment section down below. Don't forget to tap you, tap that like button while you're down there. And most importantly, don't forget to have yourselves a great day.
See you guys later And I almost forgot. we gotta. We gotta get that abs light turned off. so let's go back and do a master code clear real quick like here.
Uh, because I know some of you guys didn't forget about it and you probably already went reading comment land about that abs or um, airbag airbag airbag? that thing. The airbag light? Um, no, I don't want Hpac clear, all codes read by code, scan, switched on and running. I don't care and lights off. All done.
We're good to go see you guys later. Thanks for watching Peace.
HAHAHAHAHA these two screws are for the "Oh Shit" handle…..oh man that made my day. I guess I wasn't expecting to hear that from Ray for some reason.
I don’t know why anyone would order a car with DVD player
Last year took console apart ton my Grand Cherokee to remove DVD player and install open bucket. That was fun job 🤬😡
YAY the phone is back
I miss the "doo dee doos"!!
I'm more concerned with how did you get it apart, did everything go back where it needed to go, no missing screws, no screw holes missed and no screws in the wrong holes?
But I do IT and tear apart laptops and such so yeah yeah I totally understand this. Are you sure you want to see me praying the glass off your phone in shards because it's broken?
Ray, I’m sorry to tell you this but we have to sue you for failing to upload more videos. It’s… racism. Yes. I just asked your acting president and he said that you have to be racist for YT to have uploading issues. Bad Ray. No cookie. Again I’m sorry for this but, rules are rules. Send me the Jeep and I might reconsider.
Wow, an old one but good one as well
Ray, I know what a pita those dashes and center council are no joke… they will make you re-evaluate your life.
You have to get a recording of that phone that just randomly plays that your new shop. at least sometimes.
I used to look at jobs like this and think "there's 130 plugs in there… how's anyone going to remember what goes where?"
Then I found out that the ROUTING was the real challenge!
Well.. something went wrong.. i didn't get a notification on any of them. 🙁
I remember when I watched the beginning video of this project. Wow what a venture. Thanks for the finale.
I started out after college, installing and repairing two way radios. Back in the day, that meant a big unit mounted in a trunk, with a couple inches wide if cables going to the driver's area and on to the battery. Inside the car, I often had to disassemble the inside to run cables and mount brackets and such to solid metal.
I started out working in my parking lot and if a customer came back early and saw their brand new car, even a Mercedes at one time, in parts like after the wicked witch finished with the scarecrow. Interior panels, seats and other parts laid out everywhere so I could do my work. In the end, they never new what was involved normally, but we're even more surprised to see it in the middle and the finished product.
I did that as cellular began and eventually things were designed to smaller, less cables and eventually becoming handhelds.
I had a number of installers working for me over the years and really, only a few could handle the work. Especially when we had a fleet change out of 20 or so vehicles that had to be removed from the old vehicle and reinstalled in the new vehicles. A lot of after hours work involved to keep from losing the use of the vehicle. I spent more time doing this work, than being at home with kids and family. But that's life as a business owner.
Old School Vidya!
hmm… Apparently I was mentally prepared because when I saw my car taken apart, as I would think back to when I was three years old and used to routinely take apart my analog wrist watches much to my family's eye rolling disapproval.
And for the record Timex might be able to "take a licking…" according to their advertisements, but to an ingenious toddler they clearly were the easiest to take apart.
Damn Ray are you doing a frame off restoration on this truck holy crap
cap loc on?
Obviously youtube content is paying your bills ..for now… Cash outflow is outstripping profits at this point …Remember where you came from and stay small or suffer the consequences ..
🌟 YT dropped the ball on ya. Do they get fixed at the Veterinarians too – asking for a friend of mine AAaannddd CUTTT.
Hearing the doodaly dos makes me miss it more! However i like how Ray is now a business owner and happier now.
Oh well, back to wife units' channel she can post LOL. Did she take you offline?
Updates needec
Hello from Sydney Australia Ray.
Really like your content prior. Apparently, Drilling is not your Forte. Stick to the wrenching 😅
Ray, since you have been on your own, you seem to be loosing it. Slow down, do what you know, have some confidence in yourself.
😊
I think the problem is in your end, other YouTubers got no problem uploading videos.
Ray just leaves the toothpick underneath inside the shifter after he installs it. Zero FOX HA HA!!!!
I enjoy most of your work but this left more to desire. Cheers from Jacksonville Florida 🌞
Damn I miss the doodleedoos
could not watch sue to jerky and fast movement of the camera. Caused a vertigo attack that forced me to turn it off.
Ray, I like this interior body stuff. Not because I like doing it but I frequently get myself into it because it is good DIY. i.e. cheap parts electrically oriented but labor intensive. I do know the shock of seeing my interior in pieces:( I have noticed your attention to plastic detail in other videos and am hoping your mindset and ethic rub off on me. It kinda is already.
Thanks
Definitely older video, It's not your shop!!! I'm really enjoying the newer vids with your shop!!!!!
Action head cam, nice. Those darned harbor freight tools again.
Can you please get an image stabiliser on your head mounted camera ASAP as it’s giving me motion sickness 😅
I don't understand why you can't upload when bigger channels can.
I pretty sure I’ve seen this video was it uploaded and then made private later because I remember this video
It's interesting how much happier you sound working for yourself.
It's subtle, but very apparent when you're paying attention.
Gudday Ray. I live in Queensland, Australia. I have been watching your YouTube channel for the last 6 months. Fantastic stuff, well worth the watch. I used to work for the RAC, your equivalent of the AAA there in the USA, as a Roadside Assistance Patrol Mechanic. Gave that up years ago for a career change. But do miss it, so watching your posts are great. Keep up the good work mate.
THE GOAT!!!! YES!!!! PLEASE get new batteries and have him accompany you in the garage! LOL …. BTW I loved your XFILES clips!!
The doodly doos made a comeback!
So strange! I managed to upload a video last night…. 3 gigs, took 7 hours! (And now I'm re-editing it because it sucked!)
Hey. I remember that truck.
I'm a automotive technician in NC and I really enjoy watching your videos, but after opening your own business and having all those videos from there. it seems kinda cheesey to post this one from way back
I so missed the dooley doos. Thanks for that!
Ray, is that your escape goat?
I really hate those electric seats … no way to quickly change their position …
Also good job
Can you get the wife unit to upload new videos on her channel ? lol
Ray could have been an OB/GYN.
I doubt we would have this level of content though.
Hi Ray. I was 5 minutes down the way from you today at th LKQ salvage yard. Wish I could have stopped by
Get the wife unit to go full Karen on yt support.
Like going into the delivery room with your baby momma?
No this was an enjoyable video!
WOW! This IS an older vid. Thanks Ray!!!
After watching this series, I have come to the conclusion that Ray is a top tier mechanic. I think most guys would have noped out of this one way or another.
Turn it off and back on. (ROAST ME)
somethings fishy with upload youtube ? for your channel. probaly virus hack.
Still?
Oof.
Hope it gets sorted soon.
Scotty Kilmer repaired the internet with illegal conpression fittings and it exploded and it crashed and exploded
The 2 hour live stream has uploaded. So live streaming the content is a way round the immediate problem
This older clip reminds me that I miss the doodleeloo. The new shops needs a doodleeloo.
Duu dee doo
Love hearing the Doo Lee Doos again
Miss watching your old videos even Thow you have your own shop.
Ray, Not sure what's going on where you are but my Wife just uploaded one of her music videos with no problem. Just wanted to let you know. Have a good evening.
Lots of Detroit fakewood in that truck
Older unlisted video…I saw it when it came out. There's already a like on it.
I miss the Do-Dee-Do's!!!
And WHERE'S THE GOAT??? I haven't seen it since this video.
Great job installing the console. I don't know where you had the camera, but all the jumping around almost made me dizzy.
I call it the "Holy Shit" handle .
Ray, you need to report this to YouTube and look at your account and see if you don't have some sort of upload restriction. Eric O uploaded another new one today.
others are uploading fine, it is strange that you are having problems
Why would they make you buy all that for just the temp sensor? Because they can! $$$$
Disposable cars are already here! Just another way we are saving the planet. In landfills.
@Rainman Ray's Repairs Hopefully you can upload at 6 a.m. EST on Friday Morning
YT isn't broken, it's all to do with your sunglasses………
You've been ""Ray-'Banned"".
All jokes aside, I hope you get to continue to upload. O like where the Workshop alterations arr going.
Wishing you and your family all the best for 2023 and may the shop go from strength to strength.
it may be your device having problems cuz nobody else is reporting problems.
Re uploading.
Try restarting the modem and ont both should be restarted.
See if that helps?
You know exactly why the do it that way. Money. GMC, way back when I was working on vehicles , had the greatest idea when they had a window installed on the distributor. You could adjust the dwell on the points while it was running. But they had the dang distributor in the rear of the engine and had to remove the air breather and unhook a bunch of vacuum lines. Idiots. I still believe that if the owners of the companies would have the engineers perform their mock maintenance under a tree with general tools they would design better. But it's all about difficulty to have mechanics trained just to know the secrets made into their products. I remember changing out a heater core just by unscrewing 5 boots and the core just fell out. Things were more simple back then.
I don't know how you found the video of showing Prudence after yesterday's live to fill in the gap of no uploadability. No, I wasn't the one to gift it though.
I’m getting crazy dizzy with this episode’s filming 😵💫A static camera would be preferable.
I love your videos very knowledgeable! Learn a lot from you sir! My name is TASHA from USA 🇺🇸. My check engine light reads that I need to replace ignition coil and spark plugs as well as a cylinder 4 misfire secondary DTCs, p0420 cat efficiency helper threshold bank 1 and 83-13 ECM/PCM relation failure. I have a Honda Accord 2009 LX. I’ve driven like this 7 years! Now I fear how much repair will cost. Why me? 😩
do u talk to any of your old co workers?
I don't understand everyone else that I watch is able to post
Well fuk it
Twinstix was able to. watched him today np.
Looks like Twister
awesome the doo doo lee doo's are back …… i've missed those
Have you pissed off Scotty Kilmer?🤣
Despite the economic downturn,I'm so happy☺️. I have been earning $ 60,200 returns from my $7,000 investment every 14days………………..
damn… re-runs… XD
if it wasnt a f*rd I would have liked it.
Try using your VPN if you have one. YT , Twitter and Twitch seems to be having issues but when I turn on my VPN I can get you normally. It is a server issue somewhere close to you. Use the VPN to bypass such issue then try again..
Love,
Silver!
all good ray
Ray, how about "Hope, the Safety Goat"? <— (It's funny because it's unfortunately frequently true… Like "Hope those lift points are set right." Ya feel me? )
Now this was so nice of you to go back to your old employment location and finish up the job you started. 😂😂👌👌😁
Love your videos; a great learning experience. Anyway, looking for scrolling through videos and I saw one with 'wife unit' near the title. I thought, no way!, but yes, your wife was filming! That is too cool!
Nice video rewind! BTW, please don't bring back the doodly-doo. I don't miss that at all.
The toodledo phone is back.
Now to find where that bolt belongs.
Not that I want to see old content. However, it is nice to hear a "Doo Dee Doo" again.
Oooh Ray. Bolts for the "Oh Scheiße" handle. Slipped on the G rating there 😂🤣
Looks to be as many individual wires just in that console, as there are in my entire 1970 Valiant 😵💫
Remember, I still can’t upload anything right now. YT is broken. This is an older unlisted video. Sorry for the confusion or inconvenience. We’ll get back to normal after YT gets fixed!
