The board is attached to the aluminum housing by thermally conductive paste that glues the two together, allowing heat a chance to dissipate to the aluminum housing and then radiate away. You can buy tubes of that conductive paste. It's distinct from the silicone RTV around the outside designed to keep moisture out. I like your idea to try a repair, and it's a great way to expand skills without much risk. It's too bad that more recent boards are epoxied in to seal out moisture, making even minor repairs like this nearly impossible.

These you can work on. The really hard to do were the JPEG from Chrysler from around 1999 to 2004 on most 3.7, 4.7, 5.7, 5.9. These Bosh, Continental ECUs are easier to work. There are more tools for programming and cloning too with newer modules. I've seen this exact issue with 2005-up ford trucks

@@shagytrsc2 The Bosch ECUs are actually easier to open than the Continentals. I just opened a Continental one. Almost killed myself doing the physical contortions to open it up :). I haven't been able to get the board out from the housing though. I suppose the Continental one has a double-sided board too? It's a junk yard one I'm playing with, so I can break it no problem.

Great video series, Paul. Lots of good information in this series. That board looks like a job for Super Mario Diagnostics. He does those repairs all the time. Keep up the great work.

Paul thanks for another master class, the Saturday is always better with your videos

Hi Paul, It is very hard for me to do anything else when I have a problem to solve, I get tunnel vision and I do ignore people. Before I retired If I had a job at home it would drive me crazy. So my hat off to you being able to teach a class and not melt down. But like I've said before you are a teacher and you make people want to learn,so they help you teach!!

мистер Дэнер, спасибо за вашу работу.

I don't know if you will remember but a few months ago I commented on a video I had an 06 commander with crazy problems it had a long crank like that the one you worked on it would go into limp mode... and just die sometimes... I'm just a shade tree mechanic on my own vehicles but your explanation of the Chrysler hall effect sensor shined the light for me I checked it changed my crankshaft position sensor and it fixed everything except the long crank! I delt with that for about a month took the accessory wire off the starter put a little dielectric grease in the connector and boom cranks right up every time. But I have to thank you personally I was lost and had almost given up on fixing it before I found your video . And the information you provided that gave me the knowledge to fix our only vehicle was a true blessing to me and my family . Thank you again and have a blessed day.

I've been through a similar scenario with a 2001 Nissan Altima with a misfire condition. The driver was cooked and the ECU was hard to come by. Went to a junkyard got another ECU and desoldered and swapped the driver chip and eeprom to avoid reprogramming. Problem solved and only costed $50 for the ecu. It all depends on the customer that I go that far for that type of repair. It's a skill as us technicians should give a shot for piece of mind than buying a whole new ECU.

I was going to say my thought was at 3:17 that the belt was wrong and then someone cooked the computer! And here I am at 12:00 and you confirmed it!

I am so glad I am able to program computers on some of the stuff I work on. The other day I logged onto Ford and programmed a used trans TCM, and a key for another car at the same time. $50 for a 2 day unlimited subscription. I could toss a used $50 ecm in and program it for another $50 subscription if needed.

Good, you kept the word and uploaded all videos to everyone! EDIT: It is so easy soldering, you need only proper tools. Blame only under 0.4mm soldering, this is yes too much (too little). I can to do it, you can to do that mammoth size 100% sure (I keep watching) EDIT2: You do not need tiny tools, it is big misunderstanding on soldering. I use massive T12-K tip on everywhere, even 0.4mm pitch without problem. You must like flux and high temp. 350 degrees C is perfect. Internet is flooded so dumb suggestions where they suggest only 15W soldering thing and use low as possible temp...This is completely wrong! Time is your enemy but heat you must love.

Exactly what i observed at my work.best regards.

i'd add in: the tiny trace for sensor ground was designed as such to act as a fuse. To protect the ECM from whatever VOLTAGE was applied to the sensor GROUND line.

First you diagnosed the smoked ECU , may be injectors or colis were not firing . And after repair by using cam to ck correlation or by relative comp and coil waveform you concluded the jumped timing ! 🤔🤔🤔 Let's see ❤️

Looking at your closeup of the ECM of the Circuit board. Looks like there is more damage to the traces in the upper left. See your yellow drawings next 5v ref.

Currently having an issue with an 05 jetta 2.0. Cam sensor shorted to battery code. Getting 5v ref, but signal is 0v until alternator starts charging, then it's 12v. First thought was a short in the harness but that's not the case. 12v signal remains for a couple minutes after key is turned off. Suspecting a bad PCM but trying to verify before going that route.

I had to do a timing belt not too long ago on a 2 liter AG series VW engine. It was one of the old first gen ones. And much to my surprise, that POS doesn't have any alignment marks for the crankshaft. It did have marks on the cam gear, but that was it. I just had to line the cam up, then made some paint marks for the crank. Then put it together and hope it was right. It was also a 6 speed manual, i'm not sure if that makes a difference. I was so relieved though when it started and ran fine. All told, I did about 1500 dollars worth of work on that old piece of junk. But I've never seen a timing job, where the crank didn't have some kind of alignment mark. According to the service data, the manual transmission cars didn't have timing marks for the crank. Just wanted to throw that out there.

the early VWs had the timing mark or TDC mark on the flywheel. You have to take off a plastic cover located near the rear of the cylinder head and top of the block to see the flywheel and rotate the engine to see the distinct mark of TDC on the flywheel.

I think something like this was happening to my 2002 infiniti q45 however it's intermittent. I think coilpack arcing might have caused it.

Paul I think on this engine when the timing cuts off will bend the valve , that’s why he put on belt then the car didn’t start then he start playing with wiring

Hello. I have question. Since the sensor ground used by the cam sensor is shared also by a thermistor which is the coolant sensor. Is this why we see 4.7v on the ground for the cam sensor?(being with failed sensor ground trace in the ecm) I mean is it reading the voltage feed for the coolant sensor through the thermistor, i guess if the coolant was warmer it would read 1.7v. This is sick !👍🔧

Same thing my customer did . Timingchain tensioner went they cranked it till the battery went dead. Then he jumped it backwards said he saw smoke 😳 . He also screwed up the car he used to jump his car . Smoked alternator and a bunch of fuses 😱😂

I know this is old and long since repaired, but the community watching this cmp/ckp waveform for the belt driven TFSI engine should be aware that this engine takes its ckp signal from the intake cam. The belt drives the exhaust cam - if the belt timing checks out the chain is likely the cause.

@phillipzan2005

Жыл бұрын

I had that happen to me. A intake pressure waveform told me that timing was off, but when I pulled the cover off I saw the belt was on and was like what? My buddy came over and was like check the chain. And bam found the problem.

That trace became a fusible link.

You also had no 5v ref on the sensor, so probaly more in the ecu broken because I would say with a bad sensor ground only there must be 5 volt ref.

Sounds like a power probe was used. "Let me power this up since it doesn't have any power" not knowing it was a ground circuit resulting in letting the smoke out of the ecu.

Need a very thin jumper wire. We use wire wrap wire which is 30 gauge. Probably could get away with one of the cheap Harbor Freight magnifiers you wear on your head. A professional would use a stereoscopic microscope used for PCB repair.

I have been seen almost 70% of videoz in 3 month now i firmly believe that if may come to UAE and start a garage you can earn more than Tesla. Trust me

If you watch one of the previous videos u posted testing this you will see what could have possibly caused this issue with you testing

The waveforms are not as far off as it appears. On waves with spikes not the squares if you look at where breaks are and have the slopes they are opposite directions. So comparing it backwards in sense. Flip one

I would still be carefull with the pcb. For an ecu repair guy this is an easy fix with a bodge wire or retrace for little money.

I would not worry about that ecm, because it's fried! Look at all the black smoked checked components. Rule of thumb, if you let the smoke out of the electronics it's smoked check. Lol. Too much current for the circuit

Is it a heat sink adhesive holding the board in place

@shagytrsc2

Жыл бұрын

Thats Thermal paste/compound. To transfer the heat from the ICs from the board to the heat sink/casing.

The way you opened the ecu you have a brick on your table 😂 next time throw it in the freezer have a beer then open it makes that paste brittle=safer to open. Also putting an external ground can cause drain/parasitic draw

It was already bricked with no intention of repairing it and I wanted my students to see the issue. But for sure, I was not gentle 😉

Silicone. Read up on statice electricity and circuit boards. When you feel the zap and sting of static electricity on a doorknob, did you know it had to be at least 3000 volts in order to feel it? Any less than that you won't feel, even though you still conduct it. A PC can be damaged by 100 Vvolts static; much less than 3000. If you touch those parts; therefore, you can damage them even if you didn't feel it pass (no zap).

Why not use a breakout box for checking sensor ground

The direction of this class was one where we were teaching through ignition systems and having no spark dictated our direction and the steps we took and emphasized. Hope that makes sense

I dare you to fix it Paul!!!!

The pull up or pull down thing sounds like the new math no one understands. Basically and simply a circuit is fed power and needs a ground to conduct. Ground seeking circuit. Or the opposite. Grounded and needs power to conduct. Power seeking circuit. easier to understand.

No sir, this os critical info for INPUT circuit designs. We are not talking about output controls as you suggest. Hall effect sensors have a main power and ground all the time and it is the signal circuit I am referring to.

probably put it back in bad time out of TDC and tried to start it by jumping it with a Miller welder, lol / JK but lmao 🤣

😂😂😂😂😂he cooked it for sure , he could be novice

Cheap, shit parts that's what happened.

The main problem with this car is it's a VW.
