If your battery light is on in your car or truck this video is for you. When your battery light comes on you need to know what that means. In this video, I will go over the reasons you batter light would come on and what you can do if your alternator has stopped charging.
In this video we will be diagnosing a P0087 Fuel rail system pressure to low, P0148 fuel delivery error, and a P053f cold start fuel pressure performance. So of you have any of these codes stored in your car computer one the first things you should check is the high pressure fuel pump. Most newer car have direct injection fuel systems and in turn new a high pressure fuel pump to supply fuel pressure to the fuel injectors.
In most cause the high pressure fuel pump runs of the cam shaft and in the video I have remove the the pressure fuel pump so show you the damage it has cause to both the fuel pump and the camshaft.

Honda Code P1298 load detection circuit.
2002 CR-V 2.4
2003 CR-V 2.4
2004 CR-V 2.4
Customer Concern: The check engine light is on. Trouble code P1298. This code is for the Electric Load Detection (ELD) circuit. The ELD unit is built into the under hood fuse box and works like an electronic Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) and monitors current flow so the Engine Control Module (ECM) can control the charging system.
Average Reported Mileage: 111827
Tests/Procedures: 1. Verify that the Black (BLK) wire is a ground. The Green/Yellow (GRN/YEL) wire has battery voltage and the Green/Red (GRN/RED) wire from the ECM should have 4.5 to 5 volts reference voltage, unplugged.
With the connector plugged into the fuse box, and the vehicle running, as electrical loads are turned on, the voltage on the GRN/RED should drop. Normal voltage is 3 volts no load and 1.5 volts high load. If the voltage always stays at 4.5 volts, the ELD is not changing the voltage, so the ELD is faulty and will need to be replaced.
Tech Tips: Refer to Honda TSB #05-006. The ELD is now sold without the complete fuse box.

And this video we are working on a Duramax with a poor exhaust fluid quality message on the dash and the vehicle has gone into limp mode. This video is a diagnostic overview of what we did to fix the poor exhaust fluid quality message and get the vehicle out of limp mode.
We also had coolant temperature codes along with some glow plug codes. I will show you how to do a reductant fluid quality test along with a service Regen with the factory Tech 2 scan tool.

Fuel Injector Testing Hack P0201 P0202 P0203 P0204 P0302 and this video will be diagnosing a cylinder to misfire where the fuel injector has failed. I’ll also be showing you a cool little hack where you can test for fuel injector signal without a noid light. As always you should you the proper test equipment. You can get noid light test kit on Amazon here: https://amzn.to/2UaVQWP
Also, I wanted to add which I should have mentioned in the video a lot of times when the computer sense has a problem in the fuel injector circuit shut off power to that fuel injector so prior to testing the fuel injector circuit I recommend clearing the computer codes then testing your fuel injector signal. On this vehicle, I found fuel injector bad. Check out The Flat Rate Mechanics Tool Store on Amazon https://goo.gl/M8MpdC Subscribe to my youtube channel here: https://goo.gl/j1pCfn
In this video, I will be going over how to confirm you’re repair after diagnosing a p0171 or a p0174 system lean bank 1 and system Lean Bank 2. And this video will be repairing a vacuum leak and monitoring fuel trim values to verify that the repair was successful using fuel trim values on a scan tool. Just a brief overview of fuel trim used to verify a repair.
You fuel trim numbers should always stay around 0% and if they are adding fuel that would mean your engine is running lean. If your fuel trim is taking away the fuel that means your engine is running rich. #systemlean#p0171 #p0174
In this video I will go over a few tips on how to successfully remove an old oxygen sensor out of a rusty exhaust manifold or exhaust pipe.
Also here’s a link to the O2 sensor tool kit that are used in the video
Cool trick to remove an O2 sensor. If your car has check engine light on for a bad oxygen sensor code, that means it needs replacing. Oxygen sensor location, diagnosis, removal and repair.
All right flat rate mechanic again and
I just wanted to go over a few tips that
will help you replace your o2 sensor.
Because a lot of times over the years
these things, between the heating up and
cooling and the rust a lot of times oxygen sensors
like to get stuck inside the exhaust
manifold or the exhaust itself.
So Probably first off and probably the most
important tip I can give you guys is to
get the exhaust nice and hot before you
attempt to remove this and you wont
necessarily need a torch or
anything like that.
Just run the engine for a while hold the RPMs up to
maybe about 2,000 rpms for five
minutes or so and that will get that
exhaust nice and hot.
That’s going to aid in getting the oxygen sensor
out. Also a lot of
times you’ll be able to break these
loose but they’ll actually start to take
the threads out as you pull it from the
exhaust
The reason why is, the tip inside the exhaust
will get rust build up on it, so as you’re
threading it out the rust will tend to take the
threads of the exhaust out as well.
So what you want to do is just break the o2 sensor
loose and then spray some penetrating
oil down around there and just work it
back a few times.
That’s going save your threads. Also they have some pretty nice oxygen sensor removal kits out there that you can find on Amazon or your tool truck. Whatever you prefer but I actually picked this one up to Amazon relatively cheap here https://amzn.to/2IbVcaf it also comes with a thread chaser.
So if you pull the oxygen sensor out and it does damage the threads
you can run it back down through
before reinstalling it.
You’re always going to want to use some kind of anti-seize or carbide stuff to. Most oxygen sensors come with them as well.
Also, I highly suggest you get an OE replacement or close it. Do not replace your o2 sensor with a Universal O2 sensor. Where sometimes they’ll have the wires we you have to wire in your own pigtail connector.
Those senses are very problematic and a
lot of times will fail just due to poor
connection being for where you spliced
it in. so always go for the OE style
that has a correct connector on it. just
to save yourself a lot of trouble down
the road.
I think that’s about it off
top of my head. but yeah I mean if it doesnt
come out, torches are very handy too.
You would heat up around the o2 sensor itself and worst-case scenario if that thing just is not coming out and it takes all the threads. I have had to weld a new oxygen sensor bungs onto the exhaust.
And this video I will be diagnosing a bad evap vent solenoid. We already smoked the EVAP system for leaks once and replaced the EVAP vent solenoid with an aftermarket vent solenoid.
Witch ended up failing two weeks after installation. And this video will show you how to diagnose a bad part and what we found once we remove the EVAP vent solenoid.
