I just cannot believe that Ryan fixed this for me, he is a real genius! If you think he has a big grin you should see my face. My Maserati was off the road for over a year with not only the dealership not being able to repair but it has also baffled others too. Cannot thank him nor recommend highly enough
I’m actually amazed at how shite garages are in Scotland these videos are showing garages can’t do what I’m my eyes are the utter most basic of basic tests and systems makes me feel untouchable in my trade 😊 thanks lol
@@Gearhead90 It's not just Scotland! Problem is they don't want to touch this stuff for cars that are out of warranty period. Fault finding should be the easy bit fixing is more difficult due the lack of space to work around in engine bays. Also being able to understand how scan tools work and then diagnostics using the tools in the tool box. Lots of complexity = more time and deliberate by the OEMs. They want you to buy new cars. and more complexity makes it more difficult for guys like Rayan to keep up with electronic sub systems modules. Oh for the old days! When you could test simple plugs points and coils with nothing more than a test light and points file. Good work Ryan well done.
Probably there is not any technicians at the dealer 's any more ,as they don't pay good wages to technicians,,Dealership reputation is very poor nowadays, lucky there are some good trustworthy mobile mechanics out there..Great job well done you
Well done you - shows the importance of not just using the voltmeter which has no curren flowing to test for voltage drops but to put a load on it and see what current it can support before the voltage drops to an unacceptable level
Great diagnostic! so many dealers now have technicians that are poorly trained and just fit parts and do not carry out proper testing. A lot of the times its down to time and pressure from managers for targets and efficiency they only care about making money. Alot of the good techs have lefted the trade also so there is not alot good ones still in it like yourself. In my dealer I am the only one with diagnostic tools in my toolbox and know how the systems work being a mastertech but the other techs still get diag jobs and i feel sorry for the customers
Hi Ryan as you know the only trouble with newer electronics on are cars these days, so many wires and plugs, damp and water ingress will soon cause green crusty joints. The only trouble with dealerships and some garages they have no clue to what look for, dealerships fitters (not mechanics) are like robots, plug diagnostics scanner in and look at DTC and go with pre-determined fix and start replacing modules which becomes very expensive with no turn on cost if proven fault was down to a simple green crusty within the wiring loom. This happened to me and the main dealers said that 3rd party work was not covered and would not even look into the fault fixed, keep up the good work I just wish I lived in Scotland.
I can imagine how satisfying that was to fix such a niche car that the main dealer and others couldn't fathom where the fault was. Looks like there might have been water ingress in the loom that caused the corrosion you showed. Anyway, that was a an outstanding bit of diagnosis and repair Ryan and I can see John was over the moon with your fix on his lovely car.
How can they fail when you triumphed. They've got all the right dealership gear. Only once have I had to take a car to a Dealership for a fault and the VW dealer was Awful. Fault appeared after 10min of driving 3 times. It didn't stop them charging me each time until I went ape in the showroom. The vast majority of Stealership technicians are glorified grease monkeys that can only follow a screen. Any half decent one usually leaves to setup on their own. Anyway Ryan, excellent work again. You're becoming the Glasgow Ivan PHAD.
Great job Ryan , I work for a company that deals with trans, engines , and wiring harness and so , and the issues that’s always brought to toolbox talks , pin tension and load testing , wiring integrity is the most important , I hate to say it , stealerships produce absolute arseholes of technicians , ive come across some that can’t even test a ABS loom with a voltmeter, great job mate 🍻 onwards and upwards 👆🏻
You are good, a couple of questions, what was the cause of the corrosion was it a tapping point join? Your bulb tip is 100% been using its old school. Where did you get your knowledge bas being so young. Keep it up a 100% technician.
I am so impressed, that AI can decode your words. Without subtitles - no way (for me). Nevertheless, found your channel, love what you do. Can't imagine to work on the streets and deal with such problems. Hard job.
I’m no mechanic so excuse the probable stupid comment, but wouldn’t it be wise to put a new belt on it when you had the water pump off? Love the videos btw
Modern garages have technicians and one Master Tech who is the mechanic. Our Kia developed a fault where it wouldn't drive above 40 mph. I used a £30 scan tool that gave a MAF error code. Kia dealership had it twice and so called Master Tech even said it was fixed but the car had the same fault which I found the cause of in under 10 minutes. Removing the air intake to look for an air leak I found the air inter cooler was bowed. Dealership fitted new inter cooler and the car drove perfectly. On collecting the car my wife asked when did they want me to start working for the dealership as the Master Tech was obviously crap LMAO.
Too bad you are based in Glasgow. I could do with my car getting looked at. The dealer has tried to rectify a problem with the hands-free boot not reacting to the foot motion under the bumper since about 6 months into ownership of the car. I reckon you'd get the issue licked in no time.

Great work like always 👏
He was clever to load-test the loom, most assume it's ok. Very impressed.
Now that is a result not only for you but the customer as well ! You had a grin like a Cheshire Cat when you realised you cracked it !
Probably there is not any technicians at the dealer 's any more ,as they don't pay good wages to technicians,,Dealership reputation is very poor nowadays, lucky there are some good trustworthy mobile mechanics out there..Great job well done you
Engineers are undervalued in general.
Ridiculous oversight on the part of Maserati's dealership. Rock on to you for getting to the bottom of it and sorting it out \o/
Well done you - shows the importance of not just using the voltmeter which has no curren flowing to test for voltage drops but to put a load on it and see what current it can support before the voltage drops to an unacceptable level
This is why you do this job Ryan, the satisfaction of sorting a job like this need no words.... Maserati... pah....
New to the channel, watched a few vids now. great job, well sorted out. You certainly know your stuff 👍
Great video! Been binge watching Pine Hollow Auto Diags for months, and now come across a channel thats local! Keep up good work mate
Well done...you did this one. Old school..👍👍
You make it look easy Ryan. Obviously because of your vast knowledge and experience.
Well done on that Maserati, Ryan. What a slap in the chops for the dealership. Excellent work, a real understanding of modern car electrics.
Great diagnostic! so many dealers now have technicians that are poorly trained and just fit parts and do not carry out proper testing.
A lot of the times its down to time and pressure from managers for targets and efficiency they only care about making money.

I agree 👍
Thanks for watching my stuff cheers
Well done just highlights more trust issues people have with dealers well done another good vid
Good to watch a skilled man at work 😊
You certainly did nail it talk about setting yourself apart from the rest great job Bud.
New subscriber.
love your videos, you are so calm and collected, nothing seems to phase you!!! well done young man.
Thanks Robert 🙂
Great diagnosis and repair. Well done Ryan 💪💪

Nicely done, working methodically from first principles.👍
Nice to see some mechanical work in addition to your electronics wizardry
Came across your channel recently and subscribed straight away . So impressed with your knowledge and professionalism .
Thanks Chris
Top Man ! great to see someone using a consistent process to identify faults. Ryan keep on doing what you do.!
Excellent result - well done!
Great to see someone who is good at his job. A thorough understanding of the way car electrical systems work. Well done.
Well done, possibly the wires were rubbing against something to cause "the crusties" in the first place?
Bravo 👍
Great job ....excellent video thank-you .
Excellent and methodical diagnostics fault finding, well done 👏🏿 ✔️ 👍🏻

nice work , unlike a lot of tec so called guys you clearly understand fault diagnostic's very well done
Good job Ryan 👏
Very well done. Great fault finding. Must have felt good to get ontop of that .
Spent tonight, catching up on your channel after work. Am happy to have found ya. Really enjoying it. Keep them coming.
Great job Ryan , I work for a company that deals with trans, engines , and wiring harness and so , and the issues that’s always brought to toolbox talks , pin tension and load testing , wiring integrity is the most important , I hate to say it , stealerships produce absolute arseholes of technicians , ive come across some that can’t even test a ABS loom with a voltmeter, great job mate 🍻 onwards and upwards 👆🏻
Another brilliant job and video Ryan well done👍
super videos well done i really enjoy them
"Test don't guess" is a good saying I like to use👌 good work there
Great vlog, keep up the good work 👍
Well done I am enjoying your videos done here in New Zealand cheers
Hi
Another great fault finding video
Can I ask what test lead kit is it you use
You are good, a couple of questions, what was the cause of the corrosion was it a tapping point join? Your bulb tip is 100% been using its old school. Where did you get your knowledge bas being so young.
Keep it up a 100% technician.
Top diagnosis!!
Great video on some very nice cars.
nice one Ryan , great video man , topman , cheers
Well done 😊
I am so impressed, that AI can decode your words.
Without subtitles - no way (for me).
Nevertheless, found your channel, love what you do.
Can't imagine to work on the streets and deal with such problems. Hard job.
would the poor power feed also show up with the abs unit attached (i.e. creating a load) on the bad wire?
You working abroad mate? Surely can’t be Scotland with all that sunshine 😂 top work again mate 👍🏼
Cracking sunny day and the only time i get to work on a vehicle under shelter 🤣
Top class work on that Maserati ...
Ace mate 👍 you are a great tech
Excellent video.
Fair play mate, the Maserati customer must have been over the moon
Hi mate. Have you ever had any problems with a Citroen berlingo 2015 with the horn not working? Horn and fuse it’s fine cheers
Which diagnostic tool do you use?
Well done your a legend
Top man
Good work.
Mad skills respect ✊
Excellent 👍
Fantastic fault finding
I’m no mechanic so excuse the probable stupid comment, but wouldn’t it be wise to put a new belt on it when you had the water pump off? Love the videos btw
Congratulations on being able to see the Sun in Scotland.
Watch your eyes there mate,i know you are not used to seeing it

As soon as you mentioned Maserati the price goes up 😂😂😂
have a look at SPR video and see how much help he got from MERCEDES with faulty on auto gearbox fault
New to the channel welcome young master tech 😅
Mate, you are wasted in the auto trade. Should really consider working in Aviation
great video people just want throw parts at it
Omg if dealers or some machanic couldn't do this job then wtf can they do....shocking....
Don't use dealers for anything ever
