The customer is probably a stroke survivor, Not Drunk, Slur is common, sometimes side of mouth droops and the giveaway is his right arm use is very limited. Please don't judge.

Yeah, what made me think that he's not a drunk, is that he seems far too functional, and has nicer things than someone who'd be drunk in the middle of the day would have. I'd never jump to the conclusion that someone is a drunk just based on slurred sppech alone.

True…..my wife had a brain bleed a year ago . It’s so much work and progress is soooooo slow. They are horrible on the victim and the caregivers. Take care of yourselves as much as possible and see your cardiologist like clockwork.

Jim or Tim seems to have had a past stroke stroke. Note his right arm and the backwards handshake. Its unfortunate but he seems to being doing his best. It can be frustrating no to be able to get your words out.

Got to love the easy fixes, poor guys a stroke survivor for those that believe his drunk.Good Job Matt!

The guy is NOT drunk.He is standing steady. He is not walking all over the place. I do agree with other comments; a stoke can make a person speech impaired. The outcome of a stroke is very unpredictable; it is why doctors will perform a few test after post stroke diagnosis.

It’s good to see videos of people being genuinely good to others and understanding of the situation that is handled to them. This whole video is absolutely great. I didn’t even realize that the old guy had a stroke until it’s mentioned in the comments. It warms my heart to see this video

The gentleman has had a stroke. Very cool how well the mechanic understood him well. Good man and prayers to the gentleman with the stroke. I have a member of the family with the same condition. Very cool guy..very cool both of them

Reading these comments it’s alarming how little the average person knows how to recognize symptoms associated with a past stroke when so many are glaringly obvious here.

@charliec5653

I could tell by the way his right arm seemed to have limited movement as well as the way he was walking. The backwards handshake was the first clue.

Matt, your patience, understanding and empathy are endless. You're a good dude.💙

The guy definitely had a stroke, if he was drunk and slurring that much, his eyes would be barely opened and he'd be fighting to stand up. But all the signs point to stroke, look how he describes stuff and his left are is moving but his right isn't moving at all, thats why he reached out and did the backward handshake, cause he cant use the right.

Scanner Danner is the Rockstar! Nice shout out to the master. Sad that there was a lack of communication about the previous mechanic on the ECM spray cleaner incident of 2024? 😂

9:11 - I worked on a 3.6L with a bad Bosch ECM a couple of weeks ago. I also ordered the VIN programmed replacement from Ares and the vehicle is back up and running. After taking the old ECM apart I found out that a capacitor on the back side of the board leaked and failed. It's a common failure for the late 2000's early 2010's GM direct injection 3.6L with the Bosch engine management system.

@jackcrisci2957

Ай бұрын

Not just the 3.6 platforms. My V8 STS had plenty of modules shot through with corrosion that needed replacing. In my case their two part ABS modulator had the joining gasket fail and moisture intruded. Had to redo the climate control module for a bad dial. The RCDLR gets moody in the cold/damp. The electronics don't age well but have to say for the most part no issues. Just a handful of REALLY annoying ones.

I wish someone like you existed in Florida 😭

Its always a great day when the underdog saves the day after supermechanic fails great job with logical outcome

Nice shout out to scanner Danner. Keep up the great content broski

Matt thanx for ur patience with people....this man seams as though he's dealing with a stroke aftermath or something.....gods watching brother n he's smiling at you ❤️🇺🇲

My brother had a stroke and he had to learn how to talk and walk in fact he went for a walk and someone call the police on him lucky my brother say my name he knew my brother was so darn mad that someone thought he was drunk 😢😢

My brother used to say " the cheapest thing first " It's not always cheap but sometimes it's simple. Cleaning and or adding an additional ground helps with the diagnostic fun. I almost always think the worst in the beginning. I appreciate your integrity and experience for solving problems.

"Hey man nice to meet ya, what your name?" JIM "Hi Tim, Nice to meet ya bud" 🤣

I love those kind of fixes!!!❤ awsome fix!!

I love you dude. BEST attitude! Out there helping out people left and right!

Nice to see you driving your new van

electrical issues are always a rabbit hole, battery, starter, alternator, in that order, power in and power out, bad grounds are also fun to find.

My wife has the same car. I had to replace the bcm recently that was fun. Really easy to do about it was $200 to the door pre programmed

I wish we had fix it Mechanix in our area of wisc mechanics are hard to come by.

I love when it's an easy fix. Good job not wasting too much time!

Previous mechanic went for the ECU and ruined it? Not surprising. When mechanics don't know what is wrong, and have limited diagnostic skills they always guess the computer.

Cadillac gotta love it

That pickup truck in his driveway will give you anxiety when the check engine light comes on.

He had a stroke my grandfather sounded just like this after and it took a long time before he didn't slur his speech 😢😢❤️❤️❤️

That's awesome that you told him the problem part and how to fix it instead of charging another hour to do it like all mechanics do.

lol so whoever touched it previously messed with this thing bad

I enjoy your videos. You and Eric O at the South Main Auto channel are my favorites.

You right the rabbit hole

I literally had something just like this happen to me. I have a 13 Chevy Sonic and it started ticking loudly. I had two different mechanics look at cause I couldn’t figure it out. They both said I needed an engine. I was like no way I am meticulous with my cars. Kept searching KZread finally found a video where a guy had the same exact issues and it’s from the upper timing chain guide bolts backing out. Sure enough that was my issue. Literally a free fix. Best believe I put some lock tight on them bolts.

Scannerdanner is awesome!

the battery, starter, and alternator usually are in the same circuit. so without the alternator plugged in for this case, that eliminated the starters ground. no starter ground means an uncomplete starter circuit
