I love this channel. You are simply an entertaining man. And you're exceptionally knowledgeable at a young age. I haven't really been into the larger machine engines and such. I've stuck to smaller engines and outboard motors, but this channel makes me want to buy something heavy, tear it apart, and put it back together.

Honestly, my son woke me up at 4 am, now its 11, and I had to put my phone down to charge bc that whole time I got stuck watching your videos of everything you fixed, dude, your awesome, your living the dream I wish I could, and I been tired of watching wd treating all of those sexy ass trucks up, like they are nothing, u actually buy to fix and make them better, dont stop the videos, they are awesome.

“The hair’s full of tranny fluid... transmission fluid.” 💀😂 I love how you felt the need to make that clear in 2019 🤣

Summary of my memory.

Keep publishing these comedies … they're great lighthearted humor at a time when it's sorely needed !!!

"Them are sillinoids..." You're my big, raunchy hero, Westen. May Beyonce sit upon thy face, one fine day.

I can honestly say that it's always funny that the mechanic's truck is the one that has the most codes, LOL but it's always interesting to me to see the thought process behind analyzing the problem and what to fix.

Never give up on what you’re doing. You look like you’re having so much fun and loving life, love the videos

As a retired automotive tech-rep I can't count the number of times that scenario played out; there's actually a name for it - "stacked variables". I enjoy your videos.

Great job in tracking down the problem and fixing it.

"Lets expertly catalog that right there, so i can forget about it in 15 mins" Sounds about right lmao!

Outstanding Wes. Way to hang in there for the fix. I know how frustrating mechanical crap can be!

Hey Westen good to see Clifford back on the job and at least the bench won't rust . Hat

My Southern Heritage keeps me coming back for more every time I Tune In, I feel like I'm down home on the front porch there in Burkesville Kentucky, and I know you're a long way from Kentucky,but you got a quick wit an honest demeanor,and an all-around genuinely good vibe about you that's absolutely fantastic,as you are a genuine soul and there's no hiding it.. God bless you and yours Weston,thank you for sharing your videos with us.

Strong comment there. I feel the same way. Funny thing is I live in Southern California, have all my life. I know nothing about the " country" life, however when I watch Weston all I can feel is what a good person, and roll model he is. I wish people around here would act more like you.

Love all the videos man !!!!! Keep it up!!!!! Learning alot from each video. Thank you

Keep the videos coming bud, you have a great personality for youtube.. even the stuff that really ain't interesting, you find a way and make it a good watch lol. Thanks man, keep up the good work!

I've been in these situations like this where i fix something i didn't need to because of bad wiring as well...! Who knew the wiring would of been broken inside the loom... Sad part is the solenoid was probably fine to begin with... Frustration..! I admire your persistence, and its very motivating to watch your videos! Great Job!

so good to see clifford up and running hadnt seen a video bout a week think somebody is slacking lol keep them coming

Cool. Good job fixing Clifford. Much needed piece of equipment.

I didn't have any doubts that you'll not be able to fix it👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 great work and satisfying result good job big man👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

way to go sometimes an easy fix is not easy glad you found those bad wires keep these great videos coming

Remember to check all Dodges in Neutral when refill. Also put on an external ground on the transmission to frame cleaned everything up for a good connection.

I'm more impressed that those plastic ramps held up that truck. I've had them collapse on me. Nice job on the fix

Its cool how its broken in the beginning of the video and then fixed by the end of the video always good job 👏🏻

Had the same identical issue with an '06 Ram PU on a road trip between Birmingham and Montgomery AL where tranny would not shift properly. It was hot so I left the engine running while waiting for a tow, with the a/c on for my dogs and daughter who were accompanying. Once at the shop the mechanic turned the engine off. Afterwards he tried for 2 days to duplicate the problem but couldn't. He told me all he did was tap on the wiring harness at the transmission. He did not charge me any money, I had AAA who paid the tow. And I completed my trip and drove the truck 2 more years without incidence before I got a new ride. Dodge is famous for weird tranny issues.

Love your sense of humor man, and as always loved the video.

Good job and thank you for teaching us what you know about pickup

I’ll tell you like an old man told me...”never buy an automatic dodge Cummins...ever” that’s the best advice I have ever been given!

i know this is an older video but i found it after watching your last series on the Ram you were painting, or trying to paint :). I am going to throw out a kudo's to you for finding and repairing the transmission in this Ram. I ran a service department for a Dodge/Chrysler/jeep store for 20 years. I hate to admit it, but I've had -A- line techs that would condemn that transmission before they found the wiring issue. Good work on your part. I enjoy your vidoes

Dude you need to open up a repair shop. You are a very smart man.... .well done brother

Thats the correct way. Doesent exist bad cars, exists bad owners and lazy changig parts mechanichs. Weston, you are a true mechanic excellent diagnosis and repair

You know what these videos are very educational,,,,Really!!!!!! Love them👍👍👍👍

You have a great additude love watching you dealing with issues that would make the average person jump off a cliff,with a laugh and a smile and oh well just fix it great paint job to bad it the wrong shade,but you still find away to look at the bright side amazing love it keep up the good work . You deserve a award working on dodge's lol na there all junk

I must not have been paying attention!! I didn’t not realize before this video u were a Kansan lol!! That’s pretty damn cool since to me since I live in Missouri glad you figured out the problem

I was just hoping for another video!

I do enjoy watching you figure out the problems

Great video...thanks for sharing your repair work.

love you channel super funny good cense of humor keep up the great work!

Great video Westen!!! Love seeing the updates and I can’t wait to see the Cummins swap in the ford! I do have one question... could you please tell me who makes your scan tool and are you happy with it? Thank you- Dan

U should scan again and see if it also fixed the fluid temp issue as well ! Otherwise great job 👍👍

I know I'm watching an old video this is September 24th where you been missing your videos you're my favorite channel to watch keep them coming please hope you're doing okay Rick from Lancaster California

Never knew when beyonce might call wanting to go for a ride can't have any downtime

Thanks for sharing your diagnostic process. I would have measured the resistance of the solenoid and measured current with a low amp probe on a dvom or labscope before teardown.

Shout out to Westen from ohio! Awesome videos been watching since the beginning! Nothing to it just to do it!

About time somebody showed a good video that was cool as hell

Great video's Wes. Had a similar problem with my Chevy. Boiled down some wires going into the trans. Somebody cut and tried to repair the wires. No waterproofing. Idiots, we live in a state that uses salt on the roads.

Nice follow through on the diagnostics , well done !!!! :-)

This man has a spare of everything

Westen, if I could tell you now in 2 years ago, you have such a successful, amazing life ahead of you

Love your vids keep up the good work

"I hate transmissions" a man after my heart. I wish I wasn't so lazy and could force myself to drive manuals.

Great vid! Looks like a right pita job!

awsome video westen thats a wrap she works thats the main thing lol thumbs up and shared

Hey man I saw you and Clifford when you were hauling back the big ford with the donor Cummins. My second gen has had some issues recently too, great trucks but damnit dodge just build us a decent automatic. Haha side note, actually found your channel about a week after I saw you. Thought that was a funny coincidence

All your videos are great.

My Ram 3500 went into limp mode and I threw a couple of Viagra down the dipstick tube and the input shaft grew 3 inches longer and now it works like it has a shift kit in it.

Great videos! Loving it up here in Canada. I just subscribed.

I just subscribed. This channel is awesome you are super funny and knowledgable. Keep it up, man.

Great job Sir

Thank you

Westen, don't ya just love it, when a plan comes together?? Another great opening and love how you teach us. Keep em coming!! Love the dog trying to help, ha ha ha. Hey, you need to have a show and introduce those helpers of yours, and that includes Garrett. That would be too cool. Love ya.

I learn alot from watching your video

Another vid! Been waiting

Here is some good advice. ALWAYS ALWAYS use crimp connectors , solder the connector and most importantly use heat shrink. Road crap will find it's way in I worked in a fleet maintenance shop and that was my standard for trailer electrical repair. I was based in Kansas and your DOT road crews love to use salt in the winters!!!! Salt will mess up the wiring in a second.. great video! Keep them coming!

Nice job on Clifford, dodge wiring is always a problem that why I got rid of mine!!!!

Do you know what I like about you Weston you my son are a mechanic they are few and far between garages these days only employ fitters and screw the backside out of people's wallets always a pleasure to watch a mechanic at work

Hey westen your videos are awesome

When spendy transmissions like this mess up, I do a shake test on wiring. Shake it hard will running and up on block and transmission.. If nothing changes, drop pan and pull solenoids and diagnose them ( check shift solenoids and see if with range. lastly, check grounds and pressure regulators. Then your on your own

Hey Westen love your content and i also have a question for you. I have a 2005 dodge Dakota 4.7 magnum , v8 slt truck. I drove it home last week and parked it in the driveway and the next day i went outside and started it and then put the truck in drive and it didn't move it was like it was stuck in neutral. I then put in reverse it did the same thing. What do you think the problem is? The truck still starts up just won't move in any gear.

Love your enthusiasm keep these videos Cummin!!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Nice work!

I’m dying, right after he complains about O’reillys, the ad that played? Yup, O’reillys! Lmao. Love the vids bud. And hey, where’s my hat???!!! 😂
