I found I have 4.44 volts coming from the alternator, towards the fuse box on a red wire in a multi wire connector, and collides with a 12.80 volts out put pin, in the fuse box .. where the female connector, connects to the 20 pins, so I need to do more tests, thank you for teaching me.
@@MotorAgeMagazine I bought an Autel scanner that tells the reason for my check engine light: a code P0606 that is some general code for PCM/ECM (ecu) internal problem. The ECU on my Honda Accord had some corrosion damage so I believe that might the reason of the code even after I was able to clean the ECU circuit board but I would not like to replace the ECU because the car starts and runs perfectly. Is there any way to diagnose what is the more specfic reason they ECU is complaining about the P0606 or is PCM replacement the only option? I have checked the ground side wiring and it seems to be ok, I ordered some electric probes so I can check the inputs to the ECU more thorougly, but do you think they could ever cause that kind of code? (I think if the ECU isn't getting voltage, probably the car should not start and run fine either)
I have 4.44 volts coming back the wrong way, from the alternator regulator, (thin Red wire) not the thick red wire, from the regulaltor feed wire (thin Red wire) to the 10 amp fuse, in the fuse box, and the 4.44 volts is collidinding with the 12.80 volts, on the 10 amp fuse, no crank.
Thanks Pete! I’m learning more in a few weeks than I have for the past 15years of troubleshooting. Extremely grateful for sharing your knowledge!
Excellent analogy, thank you, fun to follow your lead
Thanks for providing this top quality tutorial . You are the best ! Much appreciated .
👍 thanks for sharing more of your wisdom Pete!
Pete, AWESOME INFORMATION always learning from the best thanks for ur time.

how could we sponsor ? thanks !
I've never known a service writer capable of properly "interviewing the witness".
great video!!!\

Did you find your problem?
happy 4th
What if there is a horde of criminals :O
Sorry for the late reply. Then you track the SOBs down one at a time. 😉
