I remember subscribing roughly 2 years ago when she had roughly 60k subs, her editing video editing skills and content has a come a long way. I'm glad everything turned out great for her, I'm excited for the future.
10 seconds of Sarah rambling is better than many channel's 15 mins of "content"!

I asked for a bikini calendar if you would get one bug her as well.

Sarah, That was killer. You never throw in the towel. Throw up a new road block and Sarah will find away around it. A very impressive search and repair. You Rock!
Watching this video and seeing how the MR2 goes now, it makes me think how far it's come since you got it. A complete credit to all of the hard work you've put into restoring it...you've killed it with Mr Dos Sarah!!
Your explanation of elec-trickery is magic. Keep on rambling and I'll keep on watching.
Great job trouble shooting a symptom that took us four trips to the dealer to resolve on our brand new 2019 VW e-Golf. (2 diagnostic trips, 2 repair appointments) It's not just 30 year old cars with these issues. Automotive techs with good electrical trouble shooting skills are difficult to come by. (I was schooled in troubleshooting by an electronics technician who spent 33yrs working for Pratt & Whitney, AKA: Dad). Troubleshooting is a priceless skill!!
I like this video in particular, it had a good feel to it. I learnt something, it was fun and entertaining... Well done Sarah
Your content is the most relatable of the car channels out there. Please keep up the great work. Love how you troubleshoot problems. Like I run into all the time ! Thanks Sarah.
Great job and some chuckles to boot! Love the sound of Mr. Dos!
I love your videos so much, Sarah! They are fun, informative, suspenseful, and awesome; keep up the great work!!
Sara,I'm amazed at you fixing that electrical stuff. I was impressed with the headlight deal but the MR2 I would've burned to the ground a long time ago. You keep going with that car,it has got to be one of the nicest around. I've said it from day one,you do really good work...so much love girl!!! You deserve some props!
Bad bad Mr. Dos! You're grounded.
I enjoyed the sound effects, entertaining as always. Thanks Sarah, keep the great videos coming.
Great Job Sarah......like your ethics about not giving up and you can do it!
Your electrical prowess never ceases to amaze me, Sarah. You are someone to look up to, as far as ability and competence. You need a TV show on Motor Trend! All Girls Garage is missing a third person; maybe there's an opening??? Love the penguins. Keep up the great work.
Loved the video. Grounds cause a lot of problems in older cars. Love ya Sarah.
Sarah your MR2 looks great and sounds very good. I like the way you can troubleshoot something and repair it another great video.
Great fix! Thanks for sharing your diagnostic process!
I'm really glad you pick this car as the project car. I had one 93' Turbo back in the days and I loved it so much! Your car is looking awesome and can't wait to see the Supra review.
Well done Sarah diagnosing the ground issue. Way to take us thru the process in logical steps. Truth on 30 yr old cars being a pain sometimes. Just got my 87 928 S4 running 3 wks ago, but with quarantining feels like 2 mo.

What did you do to get ur 928 S4? I also have one it’s my project. It is a crank no start. What did u start with?
Well done Sarah for matching your nail varnish colour to the wiring diagram.
love your vids, and good jerb on the wiring. lots of folk hate wiring work. as they should because it is a pain in the booty. thanks for posting
Totally unrelated!!! Sweet lord THANK YOU for adding the information about the grounding wires! I was watching your videos to relax and I realized what I was missing on an AF Weather sensor I was working on lol!!!!
Sarah this one of my favorite video of yours , your cool calm collective and you throw in some sailor words ...perfect balance
True words about keeping it simple! Thanks! You inspired my latest fault finding of dodgy earths and finding people have messed with wiring!
Before I got promoted out of fixing aircraft I taught my subordinates input/output/halfsplit. Looks like you found the problem quickly using this method. Good job Sarah
Mr Dos sounds so good! Good explanation of the troubleshooting, thank you!
really enjoyed this video! solid content, keep up the great work!
My 92 Volvo 240, even with only 43K miles, is an endless source of wrenching delight! BTW great job on the diagnosis of the ground issue!
Great vid Sarah. Loved the fill the hole thing. Cracked me up! Your awesome!
Amazing job on the MR2! I can't wait for the Supra review. I got a new Supra in 1984 and then I upgraded to the MK III turbo in 89. I loved both of those cars.
Always nice to see you tackling the problems 😊👏👏👏👏
This is a common problem with all SW20 MR2s. Every MR2 I have ever owed (And I have 6 now) :) I have had to repair the wiring in the door harness. Love the videos Sara!
The snap on vantage is such a great tool, I’ve been using one since 2007. Great work, enjoying your creativity in repairs and video production 🤩
Always so fun watching your videos, just love your style 😊 Great to see night problems sorted on Mr Dos. Going by Marty's furl tank video... Oh dear, you're in for a world of pain getting that out without access to a proper lift 😬 best of luck!
Lovely Jubbly, as ever, very informative, done in a way only Sarah can.
I've said it before and I'll say it again...Sarah, You are one hell of a mechanic and fabricator...
Wow so informative, thank you! You make car electronics look easy
Sarah TY I thing as a tech for 15 years most people think you put a scanner on the car and it fix it all ! They do not know what we have to do just to find WTF is not working right ! Last 9+ years Mercedes-Benz that is even more a pane in the BUT ! Keep it up ! Have A Good Day !
"That's what she said" LoL,I know you wanted to say it. That Mr. Dose has turned out freaking awesome. You know you would be that type of person that everyone wants to work on their vehicle. Your that person in my eyes and it doesn't hurt that your gorgeous. 😊 I have a 99 4x4 2 door tahoe that's my project. But rarely get to work on it lately. I just love how detail oriented you are. Love your videos. Stay safe🤙.. everyone wash your hands
It’s great watching your videos. Not just for the educational aspect of DIY, but also to see how much your skills have grown over the years. 🙌🏻😄. Also...Beautiful ink! 😄
Always a good idea to tug the wire from pin making sure it won't easily break. I usually take a long nose pliers, pinch and add tension to the female pin. And lastly spray both male and female pins with Caig DeOxit contact cleaner for added assurance. Yes many of us over analyze when trouble shooting, but hopefully learn from our mistakes. Good job.
Can't say enough good things about you and your videos. Thanks for your content. The whole thing was enjoyable.
Thanks for showing the electrical work, always the best types of projects. Excellent job. The MR2 will forever and always be a Maligned car for me. Should have gone with an old Jeep.
Super job on the MR2. Looks and runs great too.
wow your electrical knowledge is very impressive, nice job!!
Happy Saturday Sarah!! You bring great credit upon yourself and the United Sta.......I mean your You Tube channel😁, keep doing what you do and stay awesome.
When working with connectors like that I've had great results with a product called Deoxit Gold. I originally used it when maintaining test sets and found it did a good job of cleaning and preventing corrosion. Now I use it on every electrical connector I touch on my cars.
Back when I had a MR-2, I had the t-tops off, windows down,and went so fast, the inserts in the quarter windows blew out at the same time! Fun car, but had its own special set of issues. Also had an RX-7 before that with a 12k redline that screamed! Rotary fun. Seeing this MR-2 being enjoyed makes me miss mine. Nice ride, but with intermittent issues.
Glad the MR2 is working Sarah! it sounds amazing and the paint looks flawless! cant wait for the supra review
You are a problem solving genius, Sarah.
KISS ... Keep it simple Sarah 😉 Well done on Mr Do's you have him looking and sounding fantastic , good job . I like the new door chime , very homely 😎 Thankyou for being you , have a fantastic day .
Excellent work doing electrical diagnosis
Awesome 👍🏾👍🏾 I got a old Rav4 and it's a pain because of things always braking on it lol but got the new stereo in it 👍🏾😀 next is tow bar and roof racks in future, tow bar is first 👍🏾 awesome love your videos
Learning so much about electrical troubleshooting. I’m not scared of it any more!
Good work! Love your humor!
super sarah for the win you always put a smile on my face
I love Mr. Dos, I enjoy any thing you do to it. I bet it is awesome to drive,!
Heh heh heh. You continue to make me chuckle when I watch your vids, Sarah. From the cute sound effects, to the captions of your mis-spoken words, to your naturally quirky personality. What's not to love? Love from Michigan!
Great video again Sarah.
It was super satisfying to watch you diagnose, find, and ultimately solve what must have been a typically annoying electrical issue. Thanks, Sarah!
You are amazing! So much mechanical knowledge and now electrical too!! 👍
You did a great job on the MR2. That car is realy good looking. Those wheels look absolutely stunning. Keep on the good work.
I had similar electrical issues with my 97 Acura CL. I gave up when the oil leaks started to get bad around 400k miles. Lol The guy I sold it to side swiped a semi a couple months later. That is a damn pretty MR2.
As always informative and entertaining! For some reason the MR2 always gives me flashbacks of my first car a Pontiac Fiero, aka, the Tupperware coffin.
Cool multimeter!!! Great video as usual!! Thanks
impressed with your knowledge and skillz
Very well done! Much respect!
That rage shirt!! I remember that album when it came out in 96
Great job troubleshooting
Check all ground wires. Electricity does crazy things with bad or floating grounds. Old cars need lots of love all the time. You are on the right track!
I admire your finesse in doing these kind of repairs. Somehow I usually end up with more things broken after attempting to fix whatever it was the original simple thing was\.
I'll keep this is mind with my GT4. Couple electrical issues while owning. Tests patience for sure!
I'm continually amazed at all the work you've put into Mr Dos. Completely rebuilding harness for days and now this. I hope one day you'll be able to just rip around in this car instead of working on it :)
That was a great job you did...just awesome 👍🏻
Well done. Automotive electrical systems are beyond my comfort level, but you made that seem so logical. Look forward to seeing the Supra review too.
Always look forward to your videos I drop everything just to watch. People call on me to do things and I be like Ima busy right now but after I will.
Love the MR2 content! Looking forward to your Supra review as I really want one!! 🤞you love it.
Wow! Great channel. That thing flies!. I’m subbed!
KISS 'Keep it simple Sara' Seriously, your electrical tutorials are very informative.
LOVE your editing and sense of comedy in this one. Completely worth the insane time you put in at the desk.
Just the greatest channel ❤️
Could see the frustration with electrical stuff but love your sense of humor to get over that hump. Keep smiling, on wait, you do that anyway...
Sarah is a wire wizard. I am impressed.
90s cars are a pain but loved doing car audio in them. They weren't intertwined with other operations of the car such as radio to a/c unit. The good ol days
I love watching your videos Sarah!
Very common when you have multiple electrical problems at the same time to suspect a bad ground.

It takes a few times of chasing crazy stupid electrical problems to settle down and realize it’s probably a ground issue. We always want to chase power leads and assume the ground is just the ground. Kind of like chasing old school “carburetor” problems that are actually ignition problems.

Yep. A good rule of thumb is to always check the ground first. It's usually an easy one to check too, so makes sense in meny ways.

Also CRC Electronics cleaner and some di-electric grease go a long way when reassembling old crusty connectors.
And loving the RATM t-shirt, Evil Empire Bulls on Parade
Don't ya love it when the thing that's going wrong doesn't do it when you want it to? LOL! I love when you tell things to go into or out of it's home/house. I never knew door had intestines. You learn something new every day! I'm always so impressed by your electrical knowledge and trouble shooting skills. That's my weakness as it comes to working on cars. My son is also really good like you are but he lives 12 hours away from me. Luckily I have new cars and no electrical problems yet. Yet. The old car that I have is a 1948 Willys and luckily the wiring is simple. I didn't know what the hell was going on with those animal noises! LOLOL! You are the best! Mr. Dos is a handsome Beast! Thank you for another entertaining video, Sarah.
good job always the tiny things that get you great deduction
Yep,odd stuff happens to old cars.Mine is 55 years old,and it's had problems I've never seen before.It's still worth it when I drive it.
Great video Sarah!!!
I could listen to you all day 😍
As usual, a very down to earth video.
Love the mr2. I remember when I had one same as yours but in blue .
Great job on the MR2. I know what is like to have an older Japanese car. I have an 88 200sx.
Good luck with Mr. Dos, Sarah. I can't wait to see you test the Supra!
I thought I was watching one of Eric O’s videos from South Main Auto. Outstanding trouble shooting diagnoses, well done!
white vinger and table salt to clean the crusties off the connection points Sarah. but i also need those electrical tools to work on my fog lamps issues
Yeah I am going through the same thing restoring a 1993 Subaru Legacy turbo. Having little issues but it is worth it in the end.
