Great step by step trouble shooting. I am retired now from the instrumentation field in the paper industry which involved lots of troubleshooting electronic equipment. One of our instructors commented on first step in trouble shooting equipment was ensuring good supply voltages, good grounds. Second step was to insure all wiring connections had good integrity. Will save you a lot of headaches. Again, great video.
Right now I have a 2014 Chrysler 300 that intermittently will not go into Park. Got any ideas? How difficult is it to get that center council up to get at that coca cola damaged connector?
Issue resolved. I want to pass along how my problem (shifter won't go into park) was resolved in case anyone else has this problem. This generated a PO850 code and check engine light. This was a real freak situation, It just so happens that a small stone had kicked up and got wedged between the emergency Park Release arm located on transmission and the transmission case. I have the 8 speed transmission. This caused the arm located on the transmission to reposition itself slightly. The Park/Neutral switch that tells the computer all is well is apparantly located on this arm internally in the transmission. The computer TCM (Transmission Control Module) thought the emergency Park Release lever in the car had been pulled and wouldn't let me shift into park. The car actually did go into Park but the indicater light on the handle wouldn't come on and confirm this to the TCM. I had taken this to Chrysler garage and they wanted to sell me a $2200 transmission. I was pretty sure transmission was ok since I could took it down the road and all internal shifting of the transmission appeared normal, I than took it to a little shop out in the country by me who charged me $50/hr rather than $140/hr that those so called expert Chrysler mechanics charge, Ended being a $180 stone . Problem solved. PS: I would recommend this little shop in the country to anyone. That kid was sharp and didn't have all the accreditations and schooling these supposed Chrysler mechanics had..
I’m currently an owner of a 2016 Chrysler doing this exact thing shop told me the knob underneath was dirty with a liquid spill and cleaned it up and is now up and running
Hello Sadel, a question: at the 29:36 mark the BUS voltage dropped when you plugged in the ESM. That surprised me as I expected no change. Is the drop just due to the resistance of the ESM? I figured that all good modules would not affect the BUS voltage. I’m curious as to why it dropped? Ps- as I type this I have not watched the rest of the video. Thanks!
Thanks for watching, the cause of the "drop" when the esm was plugged in, is due to further stabilization of the bus with both modules are now plugged in,
Thanks for your hard work! I hope the owner of this vehicle pays out your valuable time and dedication to find out and fix the problem! as well the lesson of his life,. Not to drink or eat inside the car!!! Because can be very expensive. lol! Thank you we all learned everyday. {^_^**

I’ve been trying to fix this for a week and a half. I feel very optimistic after watching your video! Thank you sooo much!
Awesome video. Way to keep after it! You show the importance of the discipline it takes to continue the troubleshooting process. Thanks for sharing!
Yeah this one was one to not give up on, Thank you for watching

Yea bro I hope this fixes my problem. Even if it doesn’t this is a knock out video. Well done
I hope so too

THAT SHOWED ME SOMETHING ON ANOTHER CAR I AM WORKING ON ,,, THANKS FOR YOUR TIME AND PLEASE KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK 🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍
that's good to hear, and thank you for watching!
Nice work!
Thanks!
Great job, Thank you Sadel!
Thanks for watching as always!
Awesome work!!
Hey bud good stuff! I have a question where did u get the wiring diagram? Thanks

How the hell did you clean that connector? It is so small ?
What did u actually do to fix it
bypassed the connector and tied the wires together
Seriously good find, that was a very expensive cola....
Yeah this one had me puzzled for a minute, and it sure was.
So how much does this type of issue cost to repair?
This ended up costing the time it took to diagnose this which was about 7hrs worth
nice
