DODGE RAM 1500 CRANKS BUT WON'T START DIAGNOSIS & FIX
Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 жов 2021
- In today's video we take a look at a 2012 Dodge Ram 1500 with a V6 3.7l engine. The owners complaint is that the truck cranks but the engine does not start. Customer states that she had to slam on the brakes abruptly after another driver on the road cut her off. After that the truck lost power, eventually died and would not restart. Follow along as I show you some of my different methods to diagnosing a faulty fuel pump.

The owner recently told me that she drove over an embankment a couple of months ago. She said the truck had to be pulled out by a tow truck because the frame was sitting on the ground. I believe the gas tank may have taken a hit during that incident and that is what broke the fuel pump hanger. She must have been driving a couple of months with the fuel pump module just swashing around freely in the tank. I'm thinking that when she had to stop abruptly, the fuel in the tank swashed around hard enough that the fuel pump got disconnected.
Yo hermano just pack that old pump in the delphi box, it probably still works, throw it on Marketplace for 250 and rake in some extra plata. Saludos de Guatemala!
Hey Eric.I have one question for you. I don't know why you put your email on the website that if anybody have a question they can contact you. It look like you want to reply what favor you. Don't worry about it thank you for your time
You can use the power probe to load test a ground without using a test light… the instructions that come with the power probe tell you. So you touch the tip to ground, then you hit the power button. If there is a good ground, it trips the circuit breaker. It says that right in the instructions manual. Power goes out of power probe and if it finds good ground, trips that circuit breaker, boom, done
@@davidokpoti5686 You don't make any sense at all!
Who the hell are you to tell me that I don't make no sense.If you don't know what I'm talking about you need to shut the hell up.The person I send the message to why he haven't respond
I wish I could like this video a million times! Thank you so much for taking the time to upload this content even when it’s a pain in the rear end, it’s all definitely worth it and we appreciate your service 👍🏻
Brilliant failure analysis, and I love your ground side load testing.
Thank you very much!
Hes a beast when it comes to this diag and vlog. My new favorite channell!
Love the confident attitude when we all know this is not easy stuff.
Thank you Eric. You did a great job replacing that fuel pump. The diagnostic routines were great.
Thanks for explaining everything so clearly. You go step by step and explain each step. Thanks.
ERIC, YOU ARE #1 IN YOUR TECHNICAL APPROACH. PERFECT ON THE MONEY. THANKS
you simply are a BOSS at diagnosing. I challenge anyone to come up with a channel that does better diagnosing.
I did not know the 3.7L 2012 1500 had that type of ignition system. Thank you Eric. Great Diagnostic video.
Thank you, this is one of the best UA-cam how to videos I have seen. And I have seen many. Well done!!!
Awesome job, man. I Like how you went thru every process of diagnosing the entire problem and being able to even record the top of the fuel pump while it was still on the car. Awesome job, man... 👍👍
Thanks for the info and explanation on thinking what to do next. it shows your reliable experience and thinking process coming up with solutions. and I like how you show results and not boring us with how you took it apart and put it back together, just the facts that matter. Keep them videos coming so we can get it done right! Great job!!!
I don't even own a truck, but your videos are always very entertaining and your way of diagnosing problems are very interesting.
The fuel pump was just hanging by a " thread " and when she slammed on brakes the " wave " created by gas inside the gas rushing to one side of tank was enough to destroy it inside ... You are a master 👌👌
You are definitely a master mechanic.
Great diag process vs. buy expensive parts hoping for a fix. Those Delphi parts are top quality. Delphi makes GM oem parts and has for decades. No worries with the Delphi brand !
In this case, the entire fuel pump module makes sense but in many fuel pump jobs, I see mechanics opting to replace the entire module assy rather than just the fuel pump itself. I bring this up because the fuel pump itself, if it is offered separately as a replacement part, usually costs $40 or so vs. the $200 and up prices for complete modules. There's only a tad more labor involved to transfer the existing pump out and install the new one.
Keep your fuel line tool with your fuel pressure gauge at all times. Also, its a good idea to recharge battery jumpers each day as a routine to avoid a useless tool when needed.
Thanks for sharing your good skills.
good point- thats what i did
Very nice fault finding Eric... WELL DONE!!! 10/10
Eric thanks for sharing the video. All of your videos are through and informative. You always do an excellent job of showing the system on the wiring schematic and then you show us and explain your testing procedures. Thanks buddy stay safe and well Artie 👍
Thanks for always watching!
Brilliant Eric. Love your way of putting across what you are doing at each step. You should be teaching students at college with your methods.
Im not a mechanic but i love watching your video..keep uploading bro
Thank you because I love the way you explain detail by detail step by step
Love those case studys, thank you.
Very good tutorial. Sorry to hear that the customer didn't mention of possible damage in the rear of the truck chassis. Great job. I'm a new sub. thanks.
Advanced Level Auto.. Nicely done sir... I like how you explain things..
welcome back. Missed these videos :)
Thanks for sticking around!
Most satisfying mechanic video
Always very informative about the diagnosis. Good content my friend
Great Video Eric! Man those vehicles are sooo clean in Texas! Up here in Michigan the rust makes working on the vehicles crazy hard . Working on them in the rust belt you can always plan on replacing more parts destroyed from rust!
Despite what some say here, you performed a VERY GOOD diagnostic test!
Been awhile glad to see you back bro!!
Always a great video brother! Keep em comin!!!
Another great vid. So informative. You are a natural teacher. Don't be such a stranger. Missed your regular vids. Hope you and the fam are well. Keep em coming. 🤘
What type of diagnostics scanner do you use on the video
Great hands on tutorial which made it look easy. I have had to drop two p/u truck gas tanks solo, in my driveway to replace the fuel pumps and each time I swore never again. Nice job.👍
i cut an access hole- makes it a whole lot easier
@@ufartface What kind of blade and tool did you use to cut through the truck bed?
I have also seen someone unbolt and raise the truck bed.
Glad you're back. Great video 👍👍
Thanks 👍
You're such a brilliant guy and your explanation point was very informative. Bravo!!!
Great video. Also good tip. I almost got burned by few cars. Crank no start conditions are kinda tricky. I guess I’m still learning. Hooking up fuel gauge is a nightmare. I need better tools and also I’m deaf. I Can’t hear fuel prime or click. I can feel only vibration or using test light. Hearing compression sound wise is very challenging 😭. I used scope for extra help. I still check basic.. Spark, fuel, injector pluses ,air ,and timing/compression.Test not guess.
Nice diagnosis and thanks for the link to the Lisle tool.
Great Video Eric. At first thought I thought the problem lied in the TIPM relay. A common failure point. But I see that this truck had the Relay Bypass fix done. I think the Relay on the side of the fuse box is the new bypass fuel pump relay. Oh, and I would like to have seen if the old fuel pump motor was working. Maybe it was the connector that became unplugged. However the plastic on the module assembly was broken and even if the pump motor was working, maybe the module assembly was beyond repair.
Excellent diagnosis!
That was some very good, knowledgeable work. And explained well. Nice job.
Actually lucky, my 2015 Ram fuel pump relay went out (super common issue) and the fix is usually to replace the TIPM. I built a relay bypass and saved a grip on the repair. Dodge does sell a bypass but it's still expensive but not anywhere near the $1000 new TIPM. Love your in depth video's THX
the way you say it. Better than my teacher. That's talent. Like all your vids!
Awesome information 👍. Always good watching your Videos
Content was so detailed and helpful. Thank you brother! Hopefully I can figure my problem out. God bless you, keep up the great work!🙌🏼💯😎
it was a great and informative video thanks for your comprehensive explanation❤️❤️❤️
*👍👍👍👍👍 Very Detailed, Entertained, Educated, Smart And Clear! Thanks Man! The Best And Spectacular Mechanic!*
Excellent diagnosis! Thanks
Great job. Really thorough!!
Awesome job, everyone already said what I would have. Keep it up.
Thanks Eric. This is superb diag.
Great diag and repair!
Love you so much. So much i have learnt through your videos. Thanks and be blessed.
Excellent video explanation, AWESOME blessings.
Eric gracias por tu vídeo muy educativo 👍🏻
Great Video, better than in class instruction!
Great video as always! I was nervous about you sticking your phone in the gas tank though, because of possible ignition of the fumes.
Great, understandable explanations. Thanks.
I want to thank you for taking the time to video and show me the tools you use and what to look for. My shop truck is a 2016 and has 38000 miles and when I was driving it started sputtering and then it died. Boss towed me back to shop and initial check I believe the pump is bad here. Great job explaining how you do this and keep up the good work.
These trucks are also known for having issues with the fuel pump relay that is built into the fuse box. Check to make sure you have power on the fuel pump fuse before condemning the pump. Thanks for watching!
@@ADVANCEDLEVELAUTO I will. and thanks again.
@@ADVANCEDLEVELAUTO I have a 2001 1500 4x4 cranks-but no start after she died on the highway under light load.. I heard too could be crankshaft pos sensor
Ideas? Great channel, btw.
I'm subscribed.
Been waiting for one of your videos…thanks!!
Sorry it's been a while. Thanks for your patience!
@@ADVANCEDLEVELAUTO We understand...lot's of work involved. With that being said, Keep them coming. :)))
It's always good to know this things when you are dealing with an unknown problem.
Step by step it will lead you to it. Zas zas zas
Great video, I love the you explained and in detail, great job, love it
Thankyou for being very detailed.
I would say that when the driver hit the brakes, the fuel sloshed forward and broke the pump.
Excellent diagnostic Eric, you covered all possible failure points.
Love watching all your videos. You should do more video with Oz!
Welcome back.Hope all is well!
great video and diagnosis , nice one man
Excellent video, thanks my brother 👍👍👍👍
Great video as always.
Amazing work 👍
Terrific job done.
Thank you very much for your time again great video man awesome
Love seeing your videos! Would it have been easier to lift back the back end of the truck? I'm asking because I own a dodge ram 1500.
gracias por compartir su conocimiento Dios lo bendiga siempre.
You are very detailed in your explanations of why and how you test components. Thank you, for someone learning it helps to understand why you are doing something, and gives a more complete picture. You should teach a classroom.
Wish you was my next door neighbor
A good mechanic is hard to find these days you knowledge of electrical systems and how to test them is amazing. .
What kind if training do you have to be so good at what you do
Great video, very informative. Subscribed.
Very thorough video I appreciate your professionalism but for us guys without $$$ scanners etc. we have to do things old school. I watched the entire video and was impressed! Going back to electronic ignition and 4 barrel carb lol 🤣
Very good video...... learned a lot
Wow I learned so much watching your channels I wonder if I can do this stuff on my own because I'm so weak in doing wiring on a car. You are so funny every video I've seen your jump boxes are never charged or dead. Lol.
nicely done video thank you for your time .
Thank you so much for this video!!!
damn, doctor mechanix professor. great job. that was awesome.
Any chance you work in the Huntsville AL area? This is an excellent video!
Nice job Eric
Hey I see you owne several scanners, which one would you recommend between launch and the thinktool?
Or is he maxisys ultra better?
Always look forward to your videos
What I hate about auto mechanic is trying to get to the connector or bolt. How the heck did you back probed that connector?
Thanks brilliant job!
OUTSTANDING!!!!!!
I just realized he said I don't think the fuel pump is coming on to me 😂🤣🤣😂
Excellent video Bro..
Thank you very helpful
nice job with great info
Another good one. Thanks a lot.
You are a great instructor your tone your delivery. Plus your passion for solutions thru process. So what's your names where is your location? Do you have other media sites? Im proud of your professionalism.✈️
A mechanic is like a Doctor
Keep asking questions and taking notes tell you figure it out
Excellent video
Great video. Thanks.
Awesome work man. I would love to have someone as good as you check my truck I have a fake fuse in my truck that’s the only thing keeping it on. If I try to use a new or original relay it will not turn on
Respect to you Eric for doing it on the ground without a lift and by the way, the undercarriage of that truck is clean lol! Also when you tried starting the truck for the first time, it seemed like the temp was already warm! What a teaser lol great job men!
Great job!
