Thanks for sharing your troubleshooting process and use of debug tools. These tools are becoming more necessary with the technology that has been forced upon us.

My problem was a wire from negative battery cable not being grounded properly......threw out code for crankshaft and camshaft sensors but was only a grounding problem :) thank God for honest mechanics

Can you please tell me what it was? I replaced my battery cables and have had this problem ever since. Im wondering if i didnt ground it right but dont know where to look

You clearly had asked a lot of questions before you ever touched the vehicle, I can’t count how many times asking questions has helped me diagnose an issue. Thank you for the great video!

Great diagnostic tests with both parts 1&2. Have a 05 Sierra 5.3. Having very, very similar problems. Sending it to someone or somewhere to have it diagnosed. I hope their work is as good and worthy as yours!!

I now totally understand why the Verus is so expensive! It has so much information built into the software and I just that multimeter scope! When you said about the ground wire I instantly understood that the potentiometer is acting as a voltage divider. Very cool! You are a lucky man to be working in such a beautiful area!

+Steven Watson Thanks Steven! Yes the Verus is a wonderful tool and information resource for sure. Finding a good used one will literally save you thousands over the brand new ones!

It's really nice that the troubleshooter brings up the relevant PIDs.

I swear I'm not trolling you. You keep ending up in my feed. GM fly by wire system is a common problem issue. It's pulse width modulation so testing will be a problem for those without the "high tech" equipment. Check for reference voltage. If it's a intermittent issue it's likely a wiring problem. Check grounds related to TACM at ECM. Should be 6 black wires. There is a wiring harness that goes over the back of the engine that rubs on the components and shorts out. Fix that issue; you can ground the TACM to batt to confirm. If it is stuck in limp then the actuator is not calibrating. Check wiring connector at throttle body. Sometimes they split in the insulation. If wiring is good then change BOTH throttle body and TPS pedal. If you're hard up on money change pedal first then throttle body. There is no magic diagnosis with the fly by wire systems for the average folk. And btw Mr Pine? Did you remove the wire pin from that Kubota just to get a fault to pretend to diagnose so you can have a tractor repair video? My professional experience is screaming you did.

wow! very detailed explanation! I watched the whole 42 minutes. I've had 4 GMT 800 trucks including a 06 Yukon and Sierra that I still own. Good to know this stuff. Thanks for taking the time.

Good video Ivan. Had a problem with my wife's old Caravan. The lockout switch was stuck. Drove me nuts!!

This is exactly what my Tahoe does. When I bought it they had just replaced that TPS plug and crimped the wires instead of soldering them. It took about two months before I started getting the low power issue. I have figured out that it is at the crimping that causes the error but haven’t soldered them yet. I simply turn off the car and wait for a few seconds and then third it back on and everything is good again, for a while. Great vid and this gives me confidence that what I thought was the issue is correct.

You did a great job troubleshooting and explaining the process! Watched both parts 1 and 2 and excellent job on finding the problem on a hard to find issue. TCM code you just got unlucky on that one....LOL Not your fault, probably could have reset it the first time after a second test drive and reseating the TCM connectors and avoided the embarrasment of the comeback but still, great job on a hard find. Goes to show that if you have the right tools, it does help! Hopefully you haven't seen this truck for a while or he came back with other issues for you to repair!!!! Thumbs Up!

Thanks for the detailed info. You actually helped me fix my reduced engine power issue. It ended up being the ground wire on the back of the engine. I bumped that wire while looking at something else and my brand new throttle body made a noise and the rep code came up. I need that snap on you have. Thanks again.

P.s excellent informational video! Thank you!

I've been repairing cars and light trucks as an auto body tech for 42 years. In that time I have never thought that I'm done learning. Infact, if I don't learn something in a day...it was a bad day. I have been rebuilding/restoring a 2003 suburban 1500 with a 5.3. I'm putting a new throttle body in it right now, as well as cleaning the intake, valve covers, and fuel rails while watching this video. Sure some parts are a little boring to sit through, (perfect for what I'm doing) but that's the real world. If I were to make a video teaching what I do on a day to day basis, that would boring. Hours and hours of sanding, drilling spot welds, grinding. Just to show how to replace the rocker panels, inner rockers, and making or replacing body mounts. I found this video very interesting. Most importantly I found this guy is the guy I would want doing my diagnosis work. That would be worth the money. Instead of an engine full of aftermarket parts that didn't fix any problems, but are probably going to create a few down the road.

Damn you are good. Excellent troubleshooting!

Good stuff Ivan and hopefully it will be an easy fix with that ground wire. Looking forward to part 2.

Nice stuff Ivan. I have run into this before and it was the harness connection itself to the TB. I just have a useless autoenginuety so I just wiggled wires like you did and you hear the chime. The one I seen it was just a bad pin fit. Also when I seen almost 10.5 GPS on a hot 8.1 the maf is off or the throttle plate can't close , too much carbon . The IAT , I have never seen a broken ref wire, this is a first. That would through lots of substituted values for sure. The Verus is loaded with info, awesome. Look forward to the fixes. 👍

Very good video Ivan, your technique is really outstanding the way you approach the problem. Very educational. I worked on an 04 suburban a few years back with a similar issue and the only way I could solve it was to go to a wrecking yard and take the plug for the throttle body off another vehicle and solder it on the existing harness. I tried tightening the pins on the original but the issue kept coming back. Thanks for sharing your efforts.

This video showed up on my Home Screen. So I watched it. This vehicle reminds me of a different one, same make, different model. I’m not sure how they came to this answer but more then a few GMs had the same issue. The throttle body and its sensor was the issue. Quite a few had this same issue

My last three Impalas did this and I finally figured out the problems coincided with my switching to E85. I filled with non-ethanol regular and the warnings disappeared and the check engine light even went out. Plus it said I was getting thirty nine miles per gallon which is almost 40 MPG ! ! !

Very good job 👍👍👍👍 Nice video 👌👌👌👌 You teaching very good

Great videos on this truck. It is great to see that there are still great mechanics around. The "mechs" that are the norm are parts replacers or as you stated swaptronic, worst part they charge you for everything and fix nothing. Great job keep with it.

It's almost always the throttle body sensor when it goes intermittent reduced power randomly during operation or on start up. I've replaced it on my 05 1500 silverado I rebuilt with my grandpa , My 03 sierra 2500hd with the 8.1L 496 big block just had the factory installed one go out and I've replaced the mirror component on a dodge as well. Sometimes you get screwy electrical shit but when it's an rpm issue you always look at the throttle body and components first

+The average Guy Hmmm very similar scenario as the truck here, but with the accelerator pedal position sensor (instead of the TPS on the throttle body). Hopefully the TB wasn't too expensive, as there's no way that could be the fault! If it's a hard fault it should be easy to pinpoint with a few voltage checks at the APP. If it's intermittent like in my case, then I would scope the signals for glitches. Definitely suspect a wiring problem. Good luck!

Per the connector pin labels on your Snap on for the MAF/IAT, you have batt 12V coming in on one pin/wire for both sensors. The tan wire is the output for the IAT signal and you should not have voltage on it when unplugged, which is what you measured. Certainly you would not have a 5V reference signal on the tan wire for IAT output signal voltage to the PCM. You need to see what it reads when connected. If zero, and you have voltage going in, then the sensor is likely bad.

I was looking at this video to help a friend diagnose his mom's car with same problem on the TAC harness. I see in the second video you found a break in the tan wire, and of course when you plugged it into the MAF/IAT, the output temp signal voltage from the sensor can now get to the Ecu. That's not a 5V reference signal wire coming into the sensor, in other words.

take a scanner pull codes record info delete and see what codes came back record that code that will be the main code the other code may of been set when pcm trying to adjust its way out of error but try that you cant lose nothing but corrupted data. if your a garage you need aldata or mitchels on demand

I would very highly doubt that a pcm is defective, especially on a newer vehicle if everything else works fine. My suspicion is that you have a very intermittent wiring or connector pin problem. It only takes a momentary "glitch" or loss of contact to trip the code and go into limp mode. Once you clear the code the system is reset until the next glitch occurs, probably while driving from vibration. I would suggest do the wiggle test while the car is running fine (no CEL), and see if you can trip the code!

There is no need to replace any of those parts other than spark plugs and air filter do check shorted fuel injector, also if you have not replaced battery at 200,000 it’s time!remember these cars no longer have distributors they run on power put 1 gallon of laquar thinner with ten gallons of fuel till empty this will clean out everything!! Trust me!!

hello from the UK Ivan, just wondering if you have ever used a load pro? made by Dan Sullivan . He has a you tube channel if you want to check it out.

+Clive P Nope never used the LoadPro. Have seen some vids on it...looks like a test-light with a button combined with some multimeter leads. I already have those so I don't see a point in buying redundant equipment :)

+motoYam82 Hi thanks for your reply. I think your doing a great job. I saw a similarity with test results on a DVOM on Dans channel, what he called ghost voltage. Sorry but It just occured to me that you might find it of interest. I wasn't trying to suggest you should buy them. cheers

How do I bypass my egr valvuepn a2003 gmc please help

I no longer trust Dorman sensors for this system. I've replaced the TPS and APP sensors. The TPS came with the wire harness kit. It kept throwing correlation codes. When I felt the wiper movement it felt rough in comparison to the OEM sensor. I've gone back to the OEM sensor without issues (yet). The correlation limit is relatively tight at 4% IIRC. The pedal position sensor is a "Standard Motor Products APS106 Accelerator Pedal Sensor". No codes for it since replacement.

I had this same problem with my 06 Impala. It ended up being my coil pack.

It’s in the actual connector itself. I bet you everything. Or the separate ground.

My 2006 has extra strap of tape up to connector on TSP to support the the wires . Proves GM addressed the issue ..🙄
