Always impressed with Eric O's patience, professionalism and methodical approach to diagnosis. Thanks, E!
Yes and even more impressive he has the stones to admit when hes up against it and isnt afraid to use his phone a friend option and roll with reworking and ecm or two to get the job done and make it right an excellent and totally competent mechanic and methodical diagnosis technition
"At the end of the day cars suck." So true, been a technician for 18 years and the joy left ages ago.
It is never too late to find a job you look forward to each day! Good luck brother!
Ball Zach, YES SIR, LOVED IT FOR YEARS, NOW IT HAS TURNED INTO A JOB. I HATE EVEN WORKING ON MY OWN VEHICLES NOW.
I am in the process of opening a shop of my own. I am hoping that finally accomplishing a 10 year goal of shop ownership will reignite my passion.
I hear you, brother. Every time I get under the hood of anything built after 1995, my joy goes away quick ... which is every single day now, LOL! I still work on small engines, boats, motorcycles, and the occasional aircraft, so that recharges the ol' batt-trees.
@@SmittySmithsonite I had to sell my 68, 69 & my other 69 ( which was just a roller ) years ago when I had to buy a house after I got married, " FREAKIN KILLED ME ". LOVE THE MY CARS. Don't know if I'll ever own another " MUSCLE CAR " again but I'm trying. Now working on these cars was DAMN FUN but as you said, JOY GOES AWAY QUICK working on these newer vehicles.
"Needs some clearcoat, ahh, that'll buff out"!! I almost spit my coffee out!! 😂😂😂😂
The clearcoat layer is peeling off the hood of my 2001 Taurus. I'm surprised it's on the rest of the car!
Yes, me too. Was eating lunch and almost choked on my bite of sandwich. Ahhh...that will buff out. Bahahaha
you fixed what you were asked to fix.............Perfect! If the customer wants other items addressed, he knows where to find you.
There is no one in KY half as close to diagnosis awesomeness as what I see in these videos. My wife is broke down 45 minutes away from me where I work in our 04 Yukon. Starter will not activate. I have the fun job of troubleshooting tomorrow morning when I get off work. YAY.......
I'm a new weekend warrior mechanic and I feel way more comfortable testing the electrical systems on a car after your videos. Thanks!
This guy knows his stuff. Also very entertaining
"Bring the cell phone with us just in case". Words of wisdom!!!
Man, seriously one day watch all your videos and take a shot for every time you've fixed a car another shop couldnt!!!! Prepare to be wasted!!! LOL Ive said it before, you are by far the best mechanic Ive ever seen and i wish we could clone you and put you in every shop in America!!! Including dealerships!!
You know what’s better then two videos in one day ?
Three!
*Top 3 rarest creatures:*
1) Bigfoot
2) Loch Ness Monster
3) GM truck without an airbag, traction control, and tpms light on constantly
HaHa! True story.
#4 Honda Accord with the 6 speed manual. I have one!
You forgot 4) both daytime running light lit. 😂
Chevys always have the wink going on.
It's ironic that lotsa times you get a vehicle in from another shop where they replaced the PCM and the problem was something else entirely. In this case, the other shop seems to have monkeyed with everything in sight but the problem was the PCM.
When you gamble, sometimes you'll lose. ;)
I was wondering if they smoked the PCM while working on something else. I'm sure we will never know because there is too much going on with that one.
They say behind every great man there's a wife rolling her eyes
And texting on her phone!
... And a shocked mother-in-law.
@@WatchWesWork Keep inviting strays home and you'll have bigger problems, Wes... lol just kidding, no I'm not!
@@WatchWesWork you got that right !
Love it!
The mechanics mechanic to the rescue AGAIN!!! Your diagnosis skills are amazing
I was not surprised to learn that you are not a car guy. I know a lot of people who deal professionally with cars. Some sell them and some repair them. None of them are car guys. What you are is a top notch honest mechanic. Keep up the good work and enjoy your real hobbies.
No-starts are my favorite of your videos! Love seeing your analysis and troubleshooting techniques.
Not that surprising that you're not a car guy. Neither am I. What I am interested in is being as self sufficient as possible. Thank you for helping me become a little more so in this area. as always, thanks for sharing 😊
Anybody that makes it look that easy is seriously talented . 👍👌
you know, I really appreciate your thoroughness. You probably don't have enough time to respond to every comment. But, hope that you will respond to this one. Been watching you for a long time. I like a person that does the right thing even if nobody's looking!! hard to find a person like that.
Facts! My dad was a mechanic so I know a little something to get me by and know when I'm being had. I'm lucky enough to have found a good mechanic that doesnt rip you off or create more issues. This guy is awesome!
One of the best mechanics I've ever seen!
BEST mechanic i have ever seen
"Brakes.. Brakes.. Brakes!" -- BTDT. Scary when brakes don't. Thanks, Eric. Always good.
Good thing it had an inspection sticker. Think how bad it must have been before!
Man, an SMA double header. Makes Monday just a little less... Monday. Thanks as always, Eric!!
Years ago a guy I knew used to say. "There is no Red Cross On the door". This was when asked about doing something that was beyond the scope of work.
Best mechanic ever..........................
thank you for your step by step comentry
Eric O. Never disappoints.
Mr.O don't cut your self short your the best mechanic i know besides my own brother, not to mention honest thats rare
.
On too part 2, of the epic adventure that is......SMA👍👍💪💪
great job you did i just had my yukon xl 2003 done ac did not work or give heat the dealer fix it great job.. stay safe
Eric, you are spot on with your trouble shooting. I am enjoying everything about your channel. Matter of fact, this is the best thing since sliced bread! SMA = Superstar Man Action!
You are a great mechanic / person to fix the other shops mess. It's always the other shops mess...
"I have other hobbies that have nothing to do with cars". Smart man!
That leads to burn out.
Thank you for these two videos. Lots of corrosion on this one, the typical junk clear coat/paint of that era, BUT..........IT RUNS!! YAAAAYYYYYY! !
I'd say you got lucky with that used PCM! The GM programmer was the only tool I didn't recognize, since I worked on mostly Fords from about 1998 through 2016....City Agency.
Good Job Mr. O!
Many Thanks to Mrs. O for her appearance and in the making of this video. Good luck with home/office schooling!
"The part of Mrs. O was played by Mrs. O. in today's episode." :)
Glad to see you getting back in the game a little, after your families most difficult loss. Still praying for you all. Take care, Eric and Mrs.O. Jpol.
Another great couple of videos. Thanks for all the effort you put into these Eric to make us "the people" happy!
Just getting rid of my thanksgiving dinner watching south main auto nothing better on a holiday Monday THANKS 🙏
Mrs. O did NOT look amused! 🤣
I believe maintenance can save so much headache. One then can focus on issues, sometimes one at a time!
Great Video
Hey Paul! Yeah, somebody didn't care too much about that one. Drove it hard and put it away wet, as they say!
Such a pretty little town!
Eric, your not alone in thinking that. I have spent years fixing cars and for some reason people always seem suprised when I cuss and say I hate cars.
I like the re-learn process, that's some thing I'll have to do more often.
No crank no starts are better than watching Eric O. watch paint dry. Better than brake jobs too. All good though. Thanks for putting up new content regularly.
I am very impressed. That VIN! Had to send my PCM to a shop. This one really scared me and made me so nervous remembering my rebuild. You kept at it. I would have ripped my hair out. Good job. A true professional.
Eric O....You never put out a bad video. Thank you for sharing your wisdom..You have given me more confidence on trouble shooting problems with my own vehicles..Wish you was closer..You would be my to go to mechanic. Thank you for the time you put in to making these videos. Keep them coming!!
Its totally cool that you’re not a “car guy”. You’re smart and you know how to fix’ em. You can’t ask for more out of your mechanic.
How are you not over 1m subs, easy to follow, show the problem and fix, go beyond on every job, good camera work and editing not over the top, good attitude
Being a diy myself you have given me so much knowledge.
From the land down under, thank you sir!
They should've taken it to the other shop that always replaces the ECM first.
Ironic, isn't it?
Cool vlog, I enjoy watching your diagnostics, me aircraft mechanic, from one mechanic to another your good. Ever thought of teaching at a college to pass on your knowledge to the young ones.
Those truck are complete garbage will never buy a gm again Toyota or ford never had a problem your that man eric you inspired me to become a mechanic
Those truck are complete garbage will never buy a gm again Toyota or ford never had a problem your that man eric you inspired me to become a mechanic
Wow I did not expect it to be a bad ECM after everything I saw on the First Video Very Intriguing 🤔 Eric O @SouthMainAutoRepairLLC
Hey i just finished watching part 1 and Part 2 pops up... time to buy a lotto ticket.
Great video! I was waiting for the Brakleen to come out after you checked for spark...instead you did the smart thing!
All those shops who dump their "tough dogs" on you must look at these videos and mutter, "Holy Schnikes! This guy's diagnostic skills are light years ahead of anything we have!!" Probably very heartbreaking for them.... You da man, Doctor O!
“GMC Denial” - LOL! 🤣😆😂
Good to see you wrapping it up. Nice to have seen Mrs. O. cameo appearance. Got it running, give it back, and see what the owner wants to do. If he takes it back to the other shop to continue "" fixing "" it, wave good bye and good riddance. So many problems built up, it will take a week to diagnose and repair !!!! Is it worth the headache ??????? Good job, Eric !!!!!
thanks , wow , cleaning up another shops mess, again . same story , different vehicle. you folks always rock . Great to see miss O , kids and dogs :) Hope everyone is doing well up north .
I love what you said on the test drive, Im a mechanic , not a car guy! i hate cars i just get paid to fix them ...thats me
I’m the same way, I’m not a car guy.. I don’t enjoy working on cars either.. I do it, I’m good at it and I make good money doing it. I’m a mechanic to make a living and keep it moving.
Thanks for posting part 2 so fast. The suspense was killing me!
May I watch every one of your videos I appreciate everything you teaching me I used to live in New Jersey I moved to North Carolina 14 years ago I am a die-hard follower of your Channel thank you
Another excellent diagnostic video, thank you. It's been a year with my Autel MaxisysBT and I got a sticker shock when I went to update the subscription. Way too much, guess I'll try without...
Same here! Mine expired 3 years ago. Would've cost 60% of what I paid for the tool! Ridiculous. Then after a while, things start getting glitchy, since they know you didn't pony up. Mine has been screwy for a while, but I just deal with it the best I can. I get so fired up about that. It's like one big, giant scam between automakers & scan tool companies. Everyone's laughing all the way to the bank, except us!
That broke my heart when you said you weren’t a car guy. That’s like a teacher saying she hates kids
This saved me I tried everything and just thought the ecu was good because it communicated I tried replacing it and it fired right up exact same problem except on a cobalt
Solution; when buying a gm p.o.s., besides having the owners manual...
you should be supplied with a full set of repair vids from SMA!!!
Too bad I can't get my 05 Jeep TJ down to your Shop for you to check my engine. With every code I get clear another shows up.
Keep up the great work love the video's.
Neglected old cars are hard to work on with so many faults at the same time.
Appreciate the time you put into the videos.
It was good to meet you Eric. Keep up the awesome work!
Rev up your ECMs! Nice work, Mr. O.
If I ever start thinking that my car is a heap, i've now discovered a video to watch to feel better about it!
Mrs O got a GSD, love her even more.😁
Awesome job Eric. I'm learning more everytime I see one of your vids. I agree cars get you from point A to point B. No need to go hog wild and as I was told by an old time mechanic many years ago. Just fix what the customer wants no more or you can get yourself into trouble. (i.e. adjusting the seat.I'm sure you remember that one. LOL !)
I wish I lived close to someone like you. I would volunteer my time to learn some of what you know!!
Nice repair Eric O @SouthMainAutoRepairLLC
Wow. I am sure that's the first pcm replacement I've seen you actually find and agree thats the problem.
The only other one was jump start cables backwards that fried it.
Your hands remind me of my childhood, I have a quarter black uncle (my mom too, but my uncle looks it) and for the longest time I thought my dad was also black (I didn’t know fractions back then) because he worked on cars daily, and this was before engine computers and before gloves were so common, and I guess he wasn’t too aware that he was touching his face a lot, ah memories
Probably many of those so called "car guys" don't know a tenth of what you know about fixing them.
wammyz A prime example of “Information vs. Experience”.
Eric, after the 30 minute learn process has been completed, the Passlock anti theft is still in "Tamper" mode, and it takes another 10 minutes or so with the key off for it to start. So a total of about 40 minutes. That is why there was coil spark but no injector pulses. Happens to me a lot. Also the reason I think there was no negative output from the ECM to the relay, maybe, is because someone burned the driver chip inside the PCM using one of those nasty Power Probes and injecting a positive voltage with the probe while the PCM was supplying negative. Also you could have looked in the Live Data, not just "Crank Request" but the "Output to starter" PID. One more thing, there was no IGNITION OUT to the cam and crank sensor, it might have been shorted to ground. I gotten a few of this cases.
You do it right for sure, only do what you are told to do and paid to do!
I hear you, I have been fixing aircraft all my life, but sadly, cars are my hobby. God they can be frustrating!
Another great video - watching you diagnosis the issue(s) is very valuable no matter how mundane you may think it is. Keep them coming. The only other comment is the Yukon you worked on qualifies as a true pos. Maintenance deferred is maintenance ignored for good.
Ahhh, the Autumnal colors.
I agree with you totally. Fix only what the customer wants fixed. Then notify them about everything else you found.
Love when you say if I can do it, you can do it. Good luck if I can do it. I'm happy when you get the break cleaner out I can do this for sure.
Looks like the hills are coming alive with color nicely!
Recently found your channel....well done....very well done. I thought that the first one I watched was too long but when I had finished it....I understood why.....excellent job
Greetings Mr. E
I’m on the same page with you just work on them nothing more nothing less
A second helping! Can this day get any better? We'll all sleep well tonight.
I love this channel, always learning new things thanks to Eric O and team.
Just learned something about the traction control, now to go out and apply said knowledge 🤨
Very interesting process of elimination 👍👍
I've been watching you for a couple of years and learned so much from you and I would honestly like be takin under your wing, I've done my own work on both of cars and its all been inspired by you, I work in a garage for lube and tires but I still take my passion and inspiration in all my jobs I do, I may be grunt as a technician but I thank you for all the videos you've put out there
As always the o family makes the start of the day,start with a smile 😊 keep safe ,thanks for the video.
I like that he doesn't upsell. That's annoying from most shops and especially dealerships
Can u imagine knowing u can fix any car when most of the shops around cant ERIC is the man
Chevy Thunder indeed....🙄 LOL Great work man!
Dude you are a diag master I wish I had your patience lol great job man anyone working with you is lucky to learn
Loved this video and your style. Feel like we could drink a beer and figure some stuff out!
