Nice one! Having the right diagrams, knowing how the system works, some relatively cheap tools and some time (paid of course) you saved a lot of unnecessary parts thrown at that car! You could have gone the extra mile finding what was wrong with the fuse box, but you're running a business so it's perfectly fine just changing the bad module and ship it down the road. Very interesting that 2.00V power feed. Almost like a biased voltage:)) bad contacts are a world of their own. 👍
Hey Alex, exactly what you said I just fixed it and sent it on its way 😬😂😂😂 I believe these fuse boxes are failing like crazy, so hopefully I will get a look at the next one 😉👍👍👍
Took a deep dive into electronics over the last short while Peter - mobile phone repairs, laptop repairs, Mosfets, Capacitors, micro soldering, pcb schematics, general transistor/smd repair. Went bought the gear, have an entire workstation dedicated to pcb repair now - all the kit - because my head was done in getting spoofed by "experts" when we sent ecu's/abs units/dash units off for repair. Put in endless hundreds of hours educating myself over the last couple of months. My Pals thought I'd lost the plot. In short-term hindsight, lol, car electrics are pretty bloomin basic compared to phone tech - no fear is left of any circuit in a car. :-) It used melt my head if I had to figure out why an indicator was on the blink. Now I'm repairing traces on ecu's. Great video as always - you do the best cartoons. J.
Suddenly those wires and circuits don't look so vicious now, eh?😅 You took the right path by learning how the systems work, an extra step that many are afraid to take. Today we are fortunate enough to have the information at our fingertips, thanks to people like our Mr. Kennedy here! As scannerdanner always said: know your systems! Knowing that gives you a great confidence in attacking electronic faults. Have fun!
Wow, that is pretty interesting James. Fair play for doing that, not too many people have the confidence to take on the kinda stuff. My colleague & fellow UA-cam’r Dave Sterling is an electrical engineer and knows some load of in depth stuff about electrical circuits / systems. I try to keep it simple, purely because I don’t know enough about it. I do like Scanner Danner just try to understand how it works. And sometimes that isn’t easy 😬😂😂😂😂
@@myleswaller thanks Myles. I just pull out my phone & start recording, so no fancy editing or re-recording bits. So unfortunately there can be parts that I would show differently. But I am a working garage at the end of the day & hopefully my content helps out some few people 🤞🤞👍👍👍
Hey Colm, there wasn’t anything actually wrong with the traction control (ESP) but most cars nowadays turn on traction control lights due to invalid data being received from the engine ECM. So once the engine management issue was resolved the traction control was happy. All very good questions though 👍👍👍
would be nice if you get time to see a teardown of the fusebox if the customer doesn't want it back, see if you can spot whats causing the issue i.e heat, corrosion or maybe a broken track ect
Yes, it would. Unfortunately I was (as always) on a time limit & I gave the old unit back to the customer 😩😩 I like giving the customer the old parts, it make me feel a little better 🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️
I did, sometimes when recording and diagnosing it can be very difficult to capture every little step taken & condense it all into a short period of time. But yes they were checked, and this fuse box is a very common failure item 😉👍👍👍
Continuity test on a 12v circuit that has only 2V is absolutelly no proof that wire is any good. That 2V could easily be damaged wire, and continuity test would not show that if only one string in that wire is any good... I watch your videos and I'm very surprised you did that test to confirm wire integrity... Continuity is only for tracing wires, and I'm sure you know that and that's why I don't understand you put trust in continuity to tell whether to change couple hundred euro worth module.
Hi , unfortunately I cannot show every test performed in a 2 hour diagnosis and condense each & every step into every video 😔 But on this occasion I think the continuity test you speak of is at 23mins or so, when I mentioned that I was condemning the engine bay fuse box 🤔 If you continue watching until 24mins I do a load test on that wire from the fuse box to the ECU also. Maybe you stopped watching once I found the issue. I did load test all wires, even if not shown because it falls upon my head alone if I wrongly diagnose an issue 😱😱😱 Hopefully this helps 😉👍👍
@@kennedysgarage3281 As I said I watch your videos regularly, and follow you because you're good diagnostician.. I know you know continuity is not good in this case. That's why I was kind of shocked and paused imidiattelly to write a comment. Yes I saw latter in the video you did proper test... Thank you for another good video!

Awesome job as always guys , this is why you are in top 10% of garages doing this stuff
Thank you Lawson, that’s a nice compliment to get. Really appreciated 🙏🙏
A must have is good wiring info. Happy Friday 🍺🍺🚗
Cheers mate 🍻🍻

@@kennedysgarage3281 Sorin is the guy to learn from, him and Richard at Learn electronic repair - and Mrsolderfix too. Those 3 are gems for education.
Thanks for making these videos Peter 👍👍
You are most welcome & hopefully they help you out 😉🤞🤞🤞
Excellent tech, really appreciate the videos.
Thank you John, I’m only just a self employed mechanic recording what I do . But great to have you watching 🙏🙏🙏
Constructive advice for anyone watching always make sure your jumper wire is fused in case there is a short.
Or a 5A test light 😉
Excellent advice Myles. For anyone that is anyway unsure, always use a fused jumper cable 💪💪💪
Love the channel , appreciate all the extra work you have to put in videoing .

Excellent diagnosis Peter 😊
Thank you Matt, just another day on the job. I believe you might be thinking about popping over for a few beers 🍻 🍻
Definitely, looking forward to it 😀
Good approach to getting her fixed Peter, really useful video as always, thanks for sharing 👌
Thanks Richard, just another day in the life 😉👍👍👍
🖐Best regards, from SERBIA.
Wow, that is quite a bit away. Delighted to have you watching mate & thank you 🙏🙏

Hopefully you enjoy some of my content 🤞🤞
@@kennedysgarage3281 Obligatory My colleague, I enjoy it. A lot of things can be learned, go ahead with you.
I'm glad I'm not the only one 🙂
That was a good one Peter 👍
Just another job Kevin, but some of them can be interesting and enjoyable 🙏🙏🙏
Great tracking Peter.
Thank you Michael 🙏🙏 just another day at the the office 😂😂
What was with traction control light peter that wasnt in correlation with the body control issue was it
Hey Colm, there wasn’t anything actually wrong with the traction control (ESP) but most cars nowadays turn on traction control lights due to invalid data being received from the engine ECM. So once the engine management issue was resolved the traction control was happy.

totally understand.... great diagnosis@@kennedysgarage3281
Have you checked fuse F5 15A?
I did, sometimes when recording and diagnosing it can be very difficult to capture every little step taken & condense it all into a short period of time. But yes they were checked, and this fuse box is a very common failure item 😉👍👍👍
Better way is change some sensors and then oops!
Parts cannon 🤔😂😂😂
