I am also a retired mechanic but today's vehicles are very time consuming and I still have my old broham and it has points a coil and carby and to be honest I like the simplicity and the cost of a service that I am still doing myself and I will probably just keep the old girl running.

It worked well. The radio and while making a Bluetooth call, they both would shut off for a few seconds and then come back on over and over, and I would lose power steering sometimes too. The check engine light came on and that's when I had Auto Zone give me a diagnostic trouble code, and it was showing the power train system, and ABS. Sure enough though, and the attendant tried to sell me a power train system for $456.90, but she made the mistake of saying that the codes just needed to be reset and that when I found this, and two other videos telling me to do this. Thank you very much!

Excellent explanation

Very informtive and complete video! I got lucky! On my 2007 Murano, I used a 10mm ratching wrench and did not have to move the hose. Just before pulling the sensor, I blew out the connector and the sensor pins in place with electronics cleaner and all codes went away. So I never even had to pull the sensor! I was showing P0345(Camshaft Position Sensor Bank 2), P0725(Engine speed input circuit), P1701(Power supply circuit), P0868 (Transmission fluid low). The last 3 are Nissan OEM codes. I'm not smart enough to know if those should be all related, but I can see where all but the P0868 could be related, maybe? Anyway, Thanks for saving me time and money! I will update if any of them come back.😎

Excellent video. I have a customer with four persistent fault codes for a wheel speed sensor and cam position sensor, instead of letting me perform tests to find the cause, he's purchased and had me install... 3 cam position sensors, and one wheel speed sensor... with no results. I'm hoping he'll allow me to actually diagnose the issue after the wheel speed sensor $$$$ didn't fix it... which I told him wouldn't fix it. I'm gonna send him this video, it explains the diagnostic process way better than me.

Missing from causes: a loose or worn reluctor. This is a common issue on Honda engines with a lot of miles where the sensor is not pointed at the ends of teeth on a gear but the side of a magnetized disc.

I started my Fiat Ducato (2013 diesel) yesterday to drive it to the garage for a new timing belt + kit. It run badly, actually only ignition pulse to 2 of 4 cylinders. What else than a bad ECU can cause ignition pulse on 2 of 4 cylinders? What about a cam shaft position sensor or crank shaft position sensor? My garage said that they had never seen one of those bad and still being able to start the engine. Of course, all the cables need proper testing also, so far thay have found nothing wrong there, so they are suspecting the ECU/ECM. Any other leads? And, is all pulse signals 5V? I think they said they meassured 2V but I need to challange them on that because I have never heard of a 2V signal, only 5V but I am no car mechanich either.

Plz make video detail on oscilloscope how to use

May 30 2024 , great easy details video. Question, how do you test ECM and the 2 wires , that come from ECM and wires that goes to knock sensor voltage that goes to knock sensor ? Is it the same way to test the cam shaft wire , that you showed in this video. What setting is set of multimeter ?

Hi! I have a p0342 low voltage fault. However on the 5v terminal of the sensor connector I have the same voltage of my battery around 12.4/12.5. How is this possible? Shouldn't I receive a high voltage code instead?

HI this is a really good Video (and Have looked dozens to try and understand and resolve Sensor Issues) very very clear and very well explained, I only have a couple of comments if you spoke just a little slower that would be great and also if there was a slightly more detail description on the different configurations of sensors wiring for example on BMW's the signal is the middle wire .. also maybe a test of the actual sensor using something metal and the fact cheap sensors are usually Crap and you can replace them and the fault can still exist, also if you drop a sensor there is a good chance it will be damaged and can throw up a an intermittent fault which you cannot really test with a meter. not criticisms observations and im please to have found a company that can service repair ECU etc you guys clearly know what your doing ... again really really good video with visuals and diagrams (I know how long it takes to produce something like this) keep up the videos and the great work your efforts are much appreciated..

I'm confused, when taking out or cutting the wire I didn't see if this applies to the ground wire. If so then do I follow the ground to affect wire still or do I do it as it was shown which is switch wires red to + and black to affected ground wire?

@Ecutestinglimited

8 ай бұрын

Hi. If you have a reading that isn't battery voltage when testing the ground wire at the ECU, it could be that the wire is shorted to voltage. To test for this you should remove the ground wire's terminal from the ECU connector and test for voltage by placing the black probe on battery negative and the red probe on the removed terminal end of the ground wire. If there is any voltage displayed then there is a short to voltage affecting the ground wire which will need to be repaired. Hope this helps!

Hi. There are a few different tests that you can conduct on the sensor to determine if it is faulty, but these can vary depending on what type of sensor you have and the manufacturer, so you would have to consult your vehicles schematic or repair manual in order to do this. Using the method we outline at 1:52 in this video, you can determine it is likely the sensor that is faulty if it has a good ground, good supply voltage and a good signal. Hope this helps!

If you have already replaced both sensors then we would recommend completing the circuit checks in this video from 1:52 onwards to determine if the sensor has a good ground, is receiving the correct power supply, and that it is outputting a good signal. The fault will likely lie with either the connector to the sensor, the wiring loom from the sensor to the ECU, or with the ECU itself. Hope this helps.

So I checked the voltage from the ECU connectors according to your suggestion in the video and it was OK (+5V, +5V and battery voltage) so it should be the sensor. I then ordered a brand new sensor and replaced the old one and tried to erase the error code but it instantly comes back.

Did you complete the voltage checks at the sensor connector as well as the ECU connector? If the voltages at the connector are bad then the fault could be in the wiring from the ECU to the sensor.

He didn't notice that and when starting the engine he had exactly the same error code as I have. When adjusting the cam position the error disappeared.

Problem solved! Today a friend visited me and he could, without a doubt, say just by looking at the cam ends that the positions were wrong. He loosened one of the two cog wheels and adjusted the inlet cam so it aligned with the other cam end using a special tool. After adjustment and ignition on it was possible to clear the cam shaft error code and it has not (yet!) returned. I am very happy! I have no explanation how this could happen. The screw on the cog wheel was very tight (not loose anyway) and the cam belt look almost new since I have only driven 12000 km since the replacement. What on earth could have caused this?

How can you get 5v at the signal wire at the ecu, when the sensor is unplugged and nothing is being send to the ecu?

@Ecutestinglimited

4 ай бұрын

Hi. This is due to the ECU having an internal pull up resistor which pulls the voltage up in the signal circuit to 5v. When the camshaft sensor is unplugged, the signal wire is not connected to anything that could pull it to a lower voltage so you get a measurement 5V on the signal wire with the ignition on, as the ECU is basically seeing an open circuit through the pull-up resistor.

What’s the difference between camshaft and crankshaft?

Hi. A camshaft controls the opening and closing of the engine's valves due to 'lobes' or 'cams' pushing up against the valves as the camshaft rotates, which allows the intake of fuel-air mixture into the pistons as well as the release of exhaust gasses. The crankshaft converts the reciprocating motion of the pistons into rotational motion, transferring power to the transmission. It is connected to the pistons through connecting rods and converts the up-and-down motion into a circular motion. Both the crank and cam sensors monitor the rotational position and speed of each of these and relay this information back to the ECU for optimal and efficient valve timing and engine operation. Hope this help!

bro how do i find it

Damn this went from do it yourself to might need a mechanic. The parts $30 bucks I’ll go that route. Replace it and see how it does
