Hello Paul, I am writing to you from Peru, my name is Frank. First of all I want to thank you for the great content that you upload to UA-cam, I have been following your channel for a long time, I have learned a lot and I continue to do so. Now, I recently bought your book Engine Performance, and it's amazing the ease with which diagnostics can be done, it's great. As it is a book that I will read several times, I decided to translate it into Spanish to make it easier for me to reread it. I know it will help many Spanish-speaking technicians. I hope it doesn't cause you any discomfort, I only have this translation and if you want I can send it to you. I don't ask for anything in return, after all I can't complain with all that information you keep giving away. THANK YOU 🇵🇪
@@ScannerDanner I thought Mario didn't speak Spanish or write it for that matter. I know Google is pretty good with it and little correction is needed as far as the emphasis that some sentences have but it is pretty spot on for about 95%
I've been working on my cars for 20 plus years. And opened my own shop almost 4 years ago. After retiring from pipe welding. Every video I watch of yours I learn something new. Thank you for sharing this knowledge.
What I'm saying is people like me that are in the trenches working every day on these cars are looking for more training better training and I think you have the answer. Thank you for all you have done for our industry @ScannerDanner
Great diagnostic process without a flow chart. The process stays the same regardless of the vehicle manufacturer. Another great learning process. Your students should be grateful to have you sharing this valuable data.

Hey Dan, love your videos. I'm learning so much. Just wanted to say thanks. Anyhow, was just wondering if you ever did any type of virtual diagnostic? Have a problem think you might be able to walk me through. Was wondering if you might be interested?
I'm buying your book. Because I've read reviews and I've listened to people on UA-cam talk about how your book changed their career as a technician. Also because training I'm in from this manufacturer is not near as good as your content here.
I did try that test using a test lamp in place of the heater circuit to "trick" the ecm liked we chatted about while back and it didnt work. even though the current flow (amount) was the same as the A/F sensor heater. It would pwm the test lamp for exactly 10.6 seconds and then shut it off. Was interesting to see intentional shutdown though. You may not remember that, it was at leasr 6 months ago.
Were you using an LED test light? That would cause the PCM to shut it down as a bad sensor because an LED is a diode. It will reach about ..6V and turn on and there would be no resistance. So it would just be off then on. Zero resistance to infinite resistance OL. An O2 sensor will go from zero to say 100 ohms and the PCM will read that as a valid range. Zero to OL is not a valid range.
Scanner danner I love your channel love your content. I have been working as a dealership automotive technician for 2 years. I would love to know what made you decide to write your book? I've noticed there is a lot of after market and even manufacturer training available. I've noticed you take a very different approach here in diagnostics.
It's a long story on where this all started, but I have it recorded in a few classes for sure. Really appreciate your comments man. I have exactly what a guy like you needs and I'm looking forward to hearing more from you along the way. My suggestion is to sign up for the 14 day free trial I have on my website (ScannerDanner Premium) before committing to anything. On SD Premium, I'm teaching through my book, so you'll get to see what's in it and what my classes are all about.

Thank you very much for this video it was really educational, but I have a question does a 2007 frontier have a bias voltage to the 02 sensor if you can answer my question that would help me out a lot thank you very much and god bless you
@@sheerwillsurvival2064 you don't need to book to start, sign up for the 14 day free trial and at the end of 14 days you'll be charged a recurring $11/month until you cancel.

Thank you again!
Hi master I have Lexus After 40 seconds heater circuit closed by ecm and when deleting error code and restarting the engine doing same thing So is this command available in other cars and you advice me to purchase AF sensor
Thanks for the video On 40:39 min you said if there's no power on both sides then you have a blown fuse. But I guess you will not get zero voltage on blown fuse but you will get bais voltage.
@@ScannerDanner Thanks for the reply Actually I spent the last 14 days 😆 watching your videos , I learned that from you. Another question came up through my mine if some circuits doesn't have bias voltage then how it detect circuit problems.
@@braq331 in this case, it is a ground side switched circuit, so the ECM expects to see 12v on the control wire with the transistor off and 0v with the transistor on. So then logics are involved there. If it sees 0v with the circuit off, you will get a code. If it sees 12v with the circuit on, you will get a code. Make sense?
can you explain down stream 3 sensors? I see them go bad on land rovers often. they take a long time to heat up and show activity on scan data, and I have never seen any current on a heater circuit for these sensors. What do they do? I like your content. Thank you for sharing.
When a system has a bank 1 sensor 3 O2, it's soul purpose in life is to monitor the cat. Often times the heaters on these are delayed in turning on to allow moisture to burn off first
Hello and thank you for what you do. Enjoy your show. Hopefully youll have time to advise me. For a 93 f150 xlt 4x4 5.8L EOD4 or any older vehicle... Will newer platinum or iridium plugs mess with sensors or ECM? Ive been told that i should stick w stock plugs? Since truck is 30 years old, im looking for better mileage and low end torque. Since they are so old i am considering replacing coil, distributor and ignition control module as a matched set. Think i saw that some aftermarket icms screw w ECM? Want to buy matched set but would appreciate your input. Eventually will put a cam in. Not a racer. Want easier starts and smoother idle. Thank you in advance for your time.
You will get zero increase in performance by changing any of that. Unless you're having an issue now? Stay with factory plugs and don't change all those parts! Especially the ignition module and distributor! They're making cheap/junk electronic parts for these systems! Watch this part 2 video on an EECIV Mustang where it took us 4 different "new" ignition modules before we got a good one! ua-cam.com/video/9OR2yaV-3VM/v-deo.html Check and set your base ignition timing and maybe advance it a few degrees to see what that does for you. Just make sure at part throttle, pulling a hill, that you don't hear any pre-ignition (pinging) after advancing the timing. That's about the only thing you can do.
@alfredocasas7799 stay with the factory stuff. I promise you, you will get ZERO gains on aftermarket ignition systems no matter what they claim. The reason they can get away with these false claims is that when an engine is heavily modified and then needs a hotter spark, that's where the gains come in! A factory engine gets NO gains from a "hotter spark"
Toyota Tacoma 2003 4.7 with fault code p0031 heating circuit short to ground . I replaced the sensor but mil still on ,I tested positive wire it was ok then I tested control wire by test light once the engine started running the ECU connect the ground for 20 seconds then shutt off. What is the problem
Yes ground side . really I did not measured heater control voltage. just I checked the ECU switched the ground side using test light . The test light illuminated a constant green for 20s not on off on off
@aliasas5715 not all heater controls are PWM, also an LED test light is not the best tool for this job. In your case the driver is recognizing that current flow is very low so it shuts the driver back off.

I remember this one I will brush up I been following as chiefeaglebear for 9 years... I will be in PA soon!!!!! scanner
Chief! I know you :-)
And typically when does the heater circuit come on? I know cold start. Does it ever come on while driving down the road?
Upstream O2 sensors, immediately! Downstream O2 sensors will often delay heater circuit operation until moisture burns off in the exhaust
Hey Paul I bought a 2006 Honda Accord 2.4 what would you charge to diagnose it? I think your in pa or near pa
what is wrong with it?
