Bought a used Solus Pro and Vantage Pro and its a lot of fun finding troubles on cars. Last week I found a faulty IPR valve on a Ford diesel. Solus showed the pressure of the oil being not regulated and at the same time the Vantage showed the IPR being feeded the required voltage AND with the Amp clamp I could see the wattage over time. No more guess work.

Daniel Lelievre Sounds sweet. Not much of a used market in Alaska. I might have to research the $200 and less models.

One thing I like using when it comes to a fuse popping issue is to pull the fuse out and run your test light inline in replacement of your fuse. If it's a short to ground the test light will light when the wire is grounded. This won't work with every situation but it helps keep ya from going through handfuls of fuses during diagnostic.

That doesn't quite make sense. If you place your light, inline in place of the fuse, you would just be completing the circuit, of course it would light.

I try to ask as much as possible. Always an issue with work done in the past when not done properly lol; a lot of times though, the owner just bought the car and have no history of it lol. Same goes with buying broken cars and reselling them, unless the owner is the one selling it, then you can squeeze as much info as possible prior to making the purchase and get an idea on what you are about to get your hands on.

Just seeing wires directly against metal edge like that is enough for me

I'm not very optimistic when it comes to mechanics. I think most would have put in a new fuse and sent you down the road. I have to say you really showed a lot of knowledge and skill to track down this short. Kudos to you Dan and thanks for sharing your knowledge with us.

Butt connectors not shrunk, chafing wires, bad harness tie up, "universal" parts...Just goes to show that when someone chooses the "cheap" path, they get what they pay for. Whenever I find crap "repairs" like that O2 sensor are the cause of a problem, a string of expletives usually flows from my mouth followed by a feeling of satisfaction that the problem has been found. I enjoyed the video. Even as a salty, old wrench turner I learned something new.

At 8.08 Scannerdanner said "Hopefully we can find this problem". I just smile, was he just being funny. He always find the problem. I love his videos. He never gives up.

Great video, especially the wiring diagrams, cinematography and the beat up pocket screwdriver. That screwdriver tells it all

I agree with Daniel, can't believe how much I'm learning, and have been doing it most of my life. Today, you have to know electronics better, or your out of the game !

Paul. These videos are great! From the first video to the end of this one there is a lot of info that can be used in so many situations. Thanks!

Paul, your diagnostic videos are pure poetry!

Good video. I like your tip on carefully following the harness and pushing on it without moving it to find the short.

Watching this video paid off big time for me last week! Had a Honda popping the PGM-FI main relay fuse, power distribution diagram says it feeds about ten circuits, one of which is a heated O2... The logic of 'check the wires that are most likely to be damaged first' was perfect. Found the short in minutes, instead of hours.

Watching your videos is like apprenticing for a great drivability tech.

Awesome men awesome! You are truly inspiring and a blessing. May God bless you abundantly in all areas as you provide us with knowledge and DIY fixes. Thanks brother.

Ty scanner Danner this will help my track down the problematic short!! God willing of course.

Amazing that there are so many circuits on this one fuse.

What a valuable video Mr. Danner. Thank you for this submission.

I have watched these two videos a few times. They r not new. But this case study is invaluable. This is Paul at his best!! And yes I have Scanner Danner Premium. Way better than C.S.I

Boy, that takes the intimidation out of an impossible search ! Thanks

I had an issue with the charging system of my 2006 Automatic Mazda Premacy. Not too familiar with reading wiring diagrams but this video taught me something to look for. I will do a manual check on the alternator regulator and the grounding harness.

Improper O2 sensor replacement/aftermarket junk leads to alternator not charging. Brilliant my friend. Today you have taught me the value of not rushing to wiggle test, and also that alternator lights can trigger the alternator to turn on. I thought they were all either PCM controlled or completely standalone.

Great video. Wiring issues can be so time consuming and difficult to identify. Terrific job of explaining your techniques and the important tips, look at the diagram first, look at the potential problem carefully first, look at the OEM installation carefully before making a repair and repair it back to how it was. Good job, thanks!

I really appreciate your work and dedication. Thank you for all the details.

Great video .your very sharp. I will be buying your book. Thanks for all the video's . I've learned alot from your troubleshooting skills.

great videos, Mr Paul, and thank you for sharing with us your knowledge. take care and blessings. greetings from Mexico

Very KNOWLEDGEABLE Sir ScannerDanner Thanks 👍 From Nick Ayivor from London England UK 🇬🇧

Great tips, and I really appreciate the extra info on Mitchell's diagrams. We have Mitchell's, the vantage, the vantage pro, and the verus at work, so pretty similar setup to what you use. I've never taken the time to fully read thru the "using mitchell's diagrams" tab. I will now that you've shown that there is good information to be learned there. Thanks.

another great vid mr danner, im totaly with you. i do not like to fit the non standard o2 sensors for that reason.

Yet another awesome video Paul. Thanks

heat,vibration , AND corrosion great video get more indepth with the wiring diagrams

Another gem watched !! fantastic tips in these video's.

thank you my friend. i think it comes from field work. i feel like it is a necessary part of it. you can't just talk about it, you have to apply it too. show people when and how to use their diagnostic "tool box"

A great video as always Paul, thanks. I can't believe anyone (let alone anyone in the trade) would do a repair like that, I would NEVER run bare wires through open holes...manufacturers don't put stuff in for the heck of it. I do this stuff as a hobby and learnt a long time ago that you're asking for trouble using electrical tape not heatshrink or twisting wires together instead of soldering. Your diagnostic skills are awesome, an automotive Sherlock Holmes!

Have you not ripped apart a OEM harness? 80’s-90’s engineers commonly used electrical tape and commonly used copper clamps and literally triple wrapped wires together in a main harness with a copper holder that are known to corrode 1 wire to 2-4 wires lol it’s OEM engineer harness work I see this in a lot and replace this on a lot.

Thank you for the video. Always very informative. Makes me want to be a better mechanic/ technician.

This video was a lot of help! Thank you!

Wow, a universal O2... you're just asking for trouble, intermittent shorts aside. Also, the list of stuff on that fuse is daunting, but your method of prioritizing checks based on likely failures is brilliant. Good stuff!

AWESOME VIDEO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for video... great info..

Prioritizing variables. This is definitely key to efficient diagnosis. The students at Paul's school are lucky. I would say the biggest problem techs have is proper diagnosis. This case study though can throw you off, because since this car is a convertible, interior components can also be causing intermittent issues due to water leaks. Still I probably would have gone O2 first...

buen video ...gracias

I will purchase your book once I'm prepare to go out on the field! #don'tbeapartschanger!

Great video thanks alot

Paul, I enjoy learning about trouble shooting electrical problems from your videos. Please don't make another video with another mechanic or instructor. Your style is so technically oriented that it seems like the long way around compared to some back alley mechanics style and therefore is slower and more tedious. Your style really rocks when normal, logical troubleshooting fails. Keep up the good work.

Man you are awesome teacher
