    Absolute best mechanic video I've seen. I literally diagnosed my Dodge Caravan in 1 minute after watching the first 30 seconds of this video. IT WAS THE IGNITION SWITCH! I DISCOVERED IT JUST BY WIGGLING THE KEY JUST LIKE HE SHOWED IN THE VIDEO!

    So I guess you get a new key with the new ignition switch?? Do you know?
    Do you have to get a new remote/ reprogram remote?

    Good morning sir and nice to meet you!
    My vehicle (2003 DODGE CARAVAN SE) is giving me 3 codes (P1684) (P0201) and (P0420).
    Are you able to please show me on video how to apply these 3 diagnostic tests for code (P0201)?
    1st Diagnostic Test
    Turn the ignition off.
    Disconnect the fuel injector harness connector.
    Remove the ASD relay from the IPM.
    Turn the ignition on.
    Jumper the fused B+ circuit and the ASD relay output circuit in the IPM.
    Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, probe the (K342) ASD relay output circuit.
    Does the test light blink/flicker brightly?
    If yes, go to next step.
    If no, repair the open in the (K342) ASD relay output circuit.
    2nd Diagnostic Test
    Turn the ignition off.
    Disconnect the Fuel Injector harness connector.
    Disconnect the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) harness connector.
    Measure the resistance of the fuel injector driver circuit between the fuel injector harness connector and the PCM harness connector.
    Is the resistance below 5.0 ohms?
    If yes, go to next step. If no repair the open in the fuel injector driver circuit.
    3rd Diagnostic Test
    Turn the ignition off.
    Disconnect the fuel injector harness connector.
    Disconnect the PCM harness connector.
    Measure the resistance between ground and the fuel injector driver circuit in the fuel injector harness connector.
    Is the resistance below 100 k/ohms?
    If yes, repair the short to ground in the fuel injector driver circuit.
    If no, go to next step.

    I hit a rock and it put a hole in my oil pan , all the oil leaked out now it will crank but no start , I am going to replace the oil pan & gasket , does no oil and a hole in the pan cause it not to start ?

    • @MakeItEasyMechanic
      @MakeItEasyMechanic  Рік тому +2

      no oil will cause severe engine damage which in turn would cause it not to start..
