A paper clip, a little pocket scope... and a metric-$hit-ton of knowledge. What more does anyone need? Nice job Paul and Caleb.
Awesome lecture👍 I never thought I would ever be able to understand this type of old-school ignition system👨🏻🔧
Thank you SD, for such an awesome analysis no one can explain it better than you👍
I only pray to God that he showers blessings on you & your family Amen🙏
Stay Blessed SD😎
Thank you brother
That's not old school.
Points are kid..
Danner; I admire the co-ability God has given you to be able to solve problems like the one you just fixed. I am also surprised by the stubbornness that characterizes you to find the solution to problems like this. Greetings to you and your great collaborator CALEB, who makes so sharp and professional shots in the camera. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with those of us who don't have that knowledge. Thank you, from Tijuana Mexico 🇲🇽 👍👍👍
That same stubbornness is a great strength when it comes to cars and a great weakness in other areas of my life. But thank you my friend.

Excellent!
I grew up in 70s 80s I rebuilt starters alternator s carbs distributor s common practice then.
To much unnecessary parts often thrown at repairs.
Good job!
Nice job.! Helping a friend with a 1957 corvette. I too had to blow the dust off my old school timing light. Brought back fond memories of when my Dad and I worked on cars. Cherish those memories Caleb. My Dad is now gone.but those memories never leave you.
I not only had to blow the dust off my dwell meter. I had to remember how you hook it up to the coil. 40 years of non use gets dust on the brain as well. LOL

HAHA
Gold!
Thank you for your time , even though you didn't give me what I ask, I'm still thank you of what your doing because you help a lot of people.
Your first statement is so true. I just fixed had a crank no start on a 1987 Jeep. The coil was suspect, but it passed all the resistance checks. That led me to thinking it was an ignition module but a new coil fixed the problem. You know the enjoyment of fixing a car with no new parts required. Lots of satisfaction right there. You are indeed blessed in many ways. Wow, adjusting the air gap was a huge difference in the signal. That was a cool comparison.
Thanks a lot for your good knowledge and videos you share with us Mr.Danner ,I bought your paper book on amazon two years ago,I just had to say that it is a very good book along with your videos,thanks to you I have learned the electrical and electronics good now,GOD bless you,your family and friends Mr.Danner ,coming all the way from Trinidad and Tobago,a Caribbean country.
Just read this to my wife and she said to ask you if we can come visit 😂
Thanks so much!
Really like you agonismo information to buy a Mini Laptop
Really great learning video, very interesting, showing in detail the electrical mechanical proof of concept for a distributor, very we'll presented and put together Paul and Caleb, thanks for extensive and in-depth knowledge and time you put into the productions, regards
Scanner Danner after 10 minutes, "You need a distributor, a cap, and a rotor. That'll be 90 bucks."
Dad Danner after 6 hours, "No parts required Son, it's free."
Son, "Thanks Dad. That was easy! Can I borrow 20 bucks for gas?"
Hey an Ivan from Pine Hollow Diagnostic no parts required repair. LOL
90 bucks? You're kidding.
No, indeed, even cheaper on amazon. Why are these parts so dirt cheap over there?
Here in Germany every japanese car spare part means big bucks, a 4 week wait and no aftermarket available.
Sounds like me and what my kids would do.... lol ol......but, we are dad's 1st, and professionals 2nd.. :)
Nice !
Danner is always giving out helpful information I wish I can learn much more from you
I had a 91 drove it 500,000 and that was the only thing I ever had to do… but I ordered a new distributor and never had any problems after that… love Toyota 😊
Way to go! very interesting case study. I really liked seeing you use that filtering cap, even though the core issue was just the low amplitude it was a great idea cool to watch it clean up the trace.
What a ride! I liked this 2 part series... you have happiness, pain, humour, struggle, & triumph. A well rounded video. Awesome! 😊
That's Cuba, I'll be in touch soon okay? Taking a break for a little this week.
@@ScannerDanner no worries! I'm not rushing, but I am working on things. I like to get thoughts from different nationalities.... 😉
Paul and Caleb thank you for the video and for using the U-scope. Bought the master kit this past summer using your channel from AESwave. Great guys and company to deal with. Have a good one guys ❤️
Timing lights and feeler guages ,dont see those much anymore that was a fantastic video ,with some great camera work ,thanks guys
Right, I still have a timing light and a dwell meter just can't trash them yet. lol
Me either
Always interesting and informative. You really have a nice presentation style. Thank you for sharing. I grew up with points, condensers, and timing lights. Times have changed.
I must say the same thing everytime but I mean it. Thanks for leaving in the video the whole thought process even when you think about something and say I could have done this sooner (instead of removing it). Its a real true scenario that isn't staged. Because you do this... I am becoming more convinced that buying a premium subscription is gonna be worth it.
Thanks so much Lu!
@44:18 Paul: “I think we are done here”
Time left in video: 24 minutes
Ghost of Billy Mays: “But wait there’s more!”
You absolutely without doubt went all the way fixing Jake's car: with no parts required as you swapped parts, got stabbed, drove to your brother's shop, found noise, and finally adjusted the "unadjustable" AIR gap, that turned off the engine check light!! Dad of the Year Paul!!!
Thanks man, but this was for you guys too 🤘
This is a perfect example on how important visual inspection is
Man, these videos are great.I share the satisfaction of working through to the absolute resolution. Yes! I still have my timing light and dwell meter if you ever want to borrow it. Boomer I am.
I had to count the mil flashes on a 94 Jeep Cherokee the other day. The guy told to check the engine light was baffled that there was no OBDII under the dash. Luckily you can cycle the key on those old jeeps instead of having to do the paper clip trick. Everyone at the shop jokes about my "old man knowledge" but it saves the day more times than not.
excellent video paul on the basics, any mechanic can replace a part but a good mechanic knows why hes replacing the part
Nice job Paul, this kids and diyers don’t know how easy they have it for sure. I also have bone on bone on my left shoulder labrum and my neck my 4&5 are a block of Athritis I crushed 4 I can’t stand the pain it sucks. I feel for ya. It was nice to see an obd1 car and old school timing.... Jay
Super Bowl is on and I’m watching scanner danner videos.
Camera work is excellent...great video... Detailed......TOP QUALITY...
Liked, 👍 Subscribed & Activated Notifications!
I felt you when you straightened up and mention L5 and S1 ! For those that don't know it's your last vertebrae l1 and your tailbone S1 I've had two operations on l4 L5 discs and had vertebrae's Roto-Rooter so the nerves would have more room where the exit,
the discs are like onions, had the outer layers taken out,
and now they want to fuse L5 to S1, I said oh hell no!
My decision:
I'm going to a great Dr. Of osteopath and every month I go in to have my back work on thinking about doing it twice a month!
I am opiate free, never any barbiturates whatsoever,
I must be addicted to endorphins because I just take one big acetaminophen-Tylenol and one big naproxen-Aleve! Cut back on the Tylenol getting by without opiates!
Have you ever Seen a UA-cam video where they fuse your back? They get the old pruning loppers out start chopping away then they get 4 wood screws 2 for L5 vertebrae and two for your S1 tailbone & a piece of metal
with two holes in each end, then they screw them all in, lol 75% failure rate.
Take your insurance money & and laugh to the bank.
Keep up the great work,
Godspeed!

Great job Paul. You are amazing I will always watch your videos
I actually enjoyed these obd 1 vehicles. I had an otc vision scope which helped with ignition and sensor disgnosis. A scant tool wasn't much help back then. Scope was the way to go. Thank you for the video.great work both of you
Dude, great stuff... However you are incorrect about that capacitor on the inside. That inside capacitor being NG is exactly the reason you can see that ignition spike on the VR signal. It is the function of that capacitor to eliminate that ringing (read spike) from the primary of the ignition coil getting into the rest of things nearby. BUT also remember that same ringing spike getting into things is also picked up by the VR coil (oodles of windings to sense it) and that was what you were seeing.
Some might argue that the capacitor is used to produce the spark like in the old Kettering ignition systems with points and condensor (capacitor). NOT here. It is merely the filter keeping that noise out of the rest of the system arresting it at its source. I should mention that I am a mechanic like yourself for the last 47 years and an electrical engineer for the last 27 or so years. Also, I have been designing ECUs and other stuff like this.
This is probably one of my favourite ScannerDanner vids :-)
Super Cool :-)
Mr Danner some people have been working on cars for over 60 years and they have a knack for timing engines especially older cars with engines that parts are worn out some. Bob from Fresno, calif.
OK
I agree with the caleb on the threshold, which is why at higher RPM when the signal strength increased the check engine light would go out.
Have the same type of distributor in my 95 Toyota hiace thanks SD this will help me alot now I understand how how the system works. Thanks you are the best I bought your book but seeing it is much better to understand and Caleb bless up you self for being a very good cameraman love it
Ahhh nice, that explains where all the fine wire came from.
Bravo on the fix.
So it wasn't a reallyhot student with long ginger hair getting too close to an open dizzy while cranking the engine ?
No wonder I couldn't find this video when I had (and still have) a misfire with my '95 Corolla. I was looking for OBD 1, instead of "pre OBD 2", and just happened upon the part 1 of this video. I've had the misfire since around 2015, but part of the solution was to turn the AC on and put it in neutral at stop lights. If I pushed the car too hard on onramps, it would hesitate also. I found a guy selling a distributor and bought it. His distributor had copper windings coming out of the pickup? like yours. But I swapped what parts I could and still had an ignition miss. But at least I know I was on the right track. Because I did do cap/rotor/plugs/wires and still had/have the same problem. I did EVERYTHING under the sun away from the ignition system to find the problem...no dice. Will be replacing the distributor assembly because this one does leak oil past the seal, and the rotor/shaft is welded on both ends, so I can't replace the seal.
Is it a constant misfire? If it is, step 1 is to do a cylinder drop test and once you know which one it is, then compression and injector needs tested on that cylinder

ScannerDanner the zero line on the uScope is the POS on bottom tool bar. It’ll move it up and down. I’m sure you figured it out by now. 😀 did you say it’s like peeing after “breakfast” 😂 hmm 🤔
Just noticed you have old firmware if you update it the Uscope is that much better. I have 6.3.6 and 8 icons on the bottom you have 7 they added the pos (position) right on it.
Glad to see how bad I did at guessing, on the previous video.
Just had some fun with an '04 Yukon... p0171, p0200, p0300. Misfires on 1=48K, on 8=20K (Cylinder 8 was plug wire against steering column) Was fuel injector pin connection! (Used injector contribution testing on my Zurich Pro) Nice EASY tool
@@weldingjunkie Might have to get me one of those! My Verus test-leads are backordered...
HouseCallAutoRepair did you order the test leads through AES wave? The uScope is awesome great little scope and you can adapt all your other scope equipment to it as well.
Great video. Took a turn that I would never have guessed if not seen. Wow. Very entertaining and informative as seems to be the norm with your excellent videos. Caleb does great camera work.

I luv you guys and your true caring nature and always wanting to help others. Great videos on here and on your premium channel. I also have both books! Do know exactly what you mean by your spine having pain. A guy dropped 400 pounds of steel on my back and pinned me against a 2000 pound steel table! You take care of yourself Paul.
Thank you Robert. I'm sorry to hear about your injury too.
Hello Scanner Danner, I love your videos and I have learned so much by watching them. Long ago (40 years ago) in High School auto shop I was Blessed with the teaching
of an old school auto Mechanic Named Bob Van Den Brink (Mr V as we called him) and for a wonderful two and a half years he taught us about fixing cars and about life.
I miss those good old days and see your videos brings back those old memories when cars were fun to work on and hanging out in the shop was a favorite
past time. When I see your videos with your students I can see that they too have their automotive Jedi Master and they are in good hands and will become
true Automotive technicians who fully understand a car from the ground up, and will not become trouble code chasing Parts Changers that are far too common these days.
God Bless you Paul and thank you so much for your teaching and for caring about not only the mechanics (automotive or otherwise) and for the customers that rely on
people like you to get them out of trouble. Just a quick question, in this video you recommend this Uscope as an affordable scope to use and I was wondering if you could post
a list of scopes for those of us that are not auto mechanics for a living but need to work on cars and want good tools to work with. I am a maintenance mechanic that works
on industrial production machines and cannot afford the $5,000 Plus scopes but would like a scope in the $1,000 dollar range that will give good displays for square waves,
voltages and some of the other features that you show in your videos. Could you post a list of scopes from $400 to $1,500 range that you would use and recommend? That would
be a big help to all of us. Take care Paul and thanks again (and of course Caleb too for the outstanding video and the long hours of editing) so that you can bring learning and
light to a confusing craft. Ross Hurt ww1flynace@gmail.com
I always recommend the Snap-on Vantage Pro (discontinued) you can find them used on Ebay
It has a component test meter that is unmatched in this industry and a capable 2 channel scope to go with it.
@@ScannerDanner Thank you so much for the tip and I just purchased an used Vantage pro for $1099 on ebay and I look forward
to subscribing to your premium channel to learn all about using the new scope and learn about the right way to troubleshoot cars.
@@GeminiSeven43 nice! What is it updated too? What version number?
@@ScannerDanner I think that it is 17.4 It's so amazing that 40 years ago I learned about engine diagnostics on a huge old Sun Machine and now you can do the same test with a laptop sized scope. Thanks again for all your help and I look forward to learning more on your premium channel.
That's awesome then. You did good on that price with that update
GREAT case study Paul, and excellent camera work and editing, Caleb!
What a difference in amplitude with a tighter air gap! Off the scale! I do alot of small engine work, where the ignition coil is fired by a flywheel-mounted magnet - there needs to be a specific air gap (usually works within a small range) in order for the spark to be strong enough for the engine to start, run, and run under load. Was great seeing the difference a relatively small air gap change makes on the U-Scope there. Don't know why I never made the connection before, even after seeing countless videos on rust-jacked ABS sensors on GM products.
I also thought a code 12 was "no codes" - guess that's GM only. Those "in-between" years where cars were computer controlled, but not OBD-II, were a pain in the ass! Both our '86 Grand Marquis and our '93 Volvo 940 are this way. The good thing is, neither one breaks down very often - they were very well built cars, as that Toyota was. Our Marquis is at 267k miles (thought it was a little less than that, but I just checked!), still on the original in-tank electric fuel pump, and distributor. But to be honest, I miss having just a carburetor and distributor, and a block-mounted fuel pump to deal with. I'll have one again one of these days! :)
Thanks for sharing, Paul! 👍🍻
i know how you feel my back is missing the same disk. and two above it man it can realy hurt bad some days. but we keep going cant let it get to us. we have to earn a living right.
Another car fixed by you another good job
Hey Paul, great Video. I‘ ve learned a lot from your Channel. Here in Germany , I fixed a BMW X3 3.0i by using your Knowledge of Long and Short Therm Fuel trim. It had an Airleak caused by a smal cut in the plastic Valvecover between the Coils. Found by Smoketest with e- Cigarette and Pe Bottle blocking the Intake😬
Thought i was ready, but the Fueltrimm did not get under 10% on both Banks so check engine stayed on. Then we change the MAF and the Car was healed after beeing 8 weeks in a Mastershop🙈
Took me about 4 Hours.
There are too much Partschanger in the Shops today, without Laptop they are nothing.
By the way , stop smoking. The World and your Students need you.

My daughter tells at me all the time too. Thanks brother
ScannerDanner i lost my Mom on Cancer 17 Years ago as i was 20 and its never been the same Life again. Stop it for your Family, don‘t think it happens only to the others.
Grate lesson! Thanks for posting this.
And I hope you can pass all this passion and knowledge to Caleb, but as I can see, he is in to this because of you mostly. I don't really think that is his thing, otherwise.
Great video guys it was a really well explained video how the system works.
I like the distributor system that has everything like ignitor and ignition coil on the outside I have noticed that you will have a better secondary waveform on that system when you put the scope of the king lead and much easier to work on. The STA signal is used by the ECU to allow additional air to enter the intake manifold while cranking the engine. Additionally, it is used to determine when to enrich injection for starting and when to operate the Fuel Pressure-Up (FPU) system. In the event that the STA signal malfunctions, the engine may be difficult to start.
The STA signal at the ECU will be low at all times except while the engine is cranking. While cranking, the STA signal goes high (cranking voltage) as current flows through the closed ignition switch and neutral start switch contacts. This is what I found on the STA signal Toyota has a lot of abbreviations.
The STA signal is involved with the starter circuit. That much I knew, but for them to describe it the way they did in that flow chart was super misleading and incredibly stupid :-)
You are my idol. You affected my life in a very positive way. God bless you
Thanks mate for teaching us...so fun.....God bless you more....
always great videos Scanner Danner,, thought I would let you all know these coils do fail, they usually leak secondary voltage to ground, you will usually see the white gray tacking. you might have to remove coil for inspection.. Pick up coils also fail in many cases you will have to get it hot,, as a trick we use in the shop, heat the distributor with a heat gun or hair dryer being careful of course. when the ignition fails while running, then you can measure the resistance across the terminals.. I believe the max value is 180 ohms.. 25 year master diagnostic tech. japanwest, regards
Great video guys !! That weak signal is the same thing you see when the air gap gets too big on an abs sensor. The amplitude signal isn't strong enough and the abs kicks in when coming to a stop. I still have my brass feeler gauges for adjusting the air gap in those distributors !!
Paul lovin this video!! Toyotas and hondas pre 2000 have common problems for distributors! But other than that they are pretty solid even when neglected! More videos of this please! Love then asian cars! Hahaha... Nooo Danner dont get rid of the toyota!! Make it a project car!
I'm loving that baby scope 💕🙂
I use the DSO213 4 channel , 2 analog, and 2 digital channels, plus function generator at fifth port. Cost $190. Quality is awesome . Same size screen as the one channel U-Scope which is at $250. The DSO213 is over kill , over the U-Scope. plus 4 channels with the DSO213, can check BUS high low, etc.www.ebay.com/usr/lab-devices?_trksid=p2047675.l2559
ScannerDanner keeps filling my 'air gap' with knowledge.
Like a pitbull terrier - he never gives up the fight.
Had one of those problems on 1991 mazda 323f, but it was still carburator type. That was even more fun for the kid i was back then.
Excellent video as always , I've been watching a lot of yr your videos very informative , and congratulations on your god given skill and determination for what you do helping us diy's , God bless you and your family,.
always fun getting these on the dyno with the boss holding it flat out and me swinging the dizzy looking for peak torque on the monitor. I always expected one to a throw a rod in my face one day but it never happened. :D
Howdy Paul. Long time no message.i always watch and appeciate your vids. Thanks for bein there for us experienced tech's and DIY's
no adjustment on air gaps, my azz! file the mounting plate screw holes out and tweak it around, providing the dist. shaft isn't flopping around from bad bushings.
21:32 so right about that and service info and spec was hard to get now a days service info and spec is all over the Internet talking about Internet we didn't have that ether wasn't easy
heres a thought for you paul- since the ignition trigger is metally connected to the cam trigger through the shaft it is possible for the ignition to be transferred up the metal by indictance and picked up by the pick up coil. i'd be willing to bet under the plastic on that ignition coil is a shield wrapped around and grounded through a mount screw. probably the reason it stunk is the signal was so low that top trigger is so the computer knows #1 tdc for sync on injector pulsing. the bottom runs the coil and it just fires every 90 degrees of distributor rotation or 180 crank. the keyed rotor is what times the cylinder. so the injectors were firing out of time.
Very good demonstration air gap.thanks
One of the best ones I've ever been able to show! Thank you
WE LOVE U MAN! AWSM TEACHER N MECH GOD BLESS N HEAL YOU MIGHTILY!
That purely for the content is probably one of the best videos you have done Paul. That for any regular mechanic or Diyer could have been a parts cannon blitz. Plugs leads cap rotor coil, screw it complete new dizzy. Or the lucky mechanic, it needs a dizzy. Correct but what was the real issue? This project had multiple issues. Swapping of known bad distributor for a possibly ok one. Swapping parts of unknown condition all lead to an extended repair time. Testing of input signals was the key to the replacement dizzys correct diagnosis and no parts repair.
I remember working on Toyota Distributors.
L1 through L7 falling out of a tree age 12, osteoarthritis now. Such is life....
Haven't done timing by ear since the end of the flatbread, 6 volt positive ground, no I'm not quite that old, but it was the farm truck and my grandfather didn't believe in replacement for the sake of it.
Actually bought the old girl eventually, did it up to original specs and donated it to a museum.
Sorry about your back my friend
Thanks,
I used to have a Toyota Camry with the exact ignition set up but never experienced this type of problem. So the flowchart tells you to replace the distributor if the air gap is incorrect, yet the air gap is adjustable for a correct setting which in turn can resolve a problem. The stealerships don't care and just have you replacing a complete unit composed of many separate parts. Now I know why you state that flow charts suck Paul. You did show a scope waveform from the service literature - was your original signal within specs as per the waveform ? Even though the adjustment increased the output and resolved the issue, if the original signal was within spec, you would have to wonder why it was throwing a code and check engine light.
Putting those two coils in series on that Ne pick up coil might be a way of boosting the output signal, although I'm not exactly sure - there is no Toyota literature I have seen that explains this.
Great job Paul.
"We thought we were done....We are NOT done" ..hehehehe that cracked me up mister :)In many ways we are never done...keep going :) Thank you sooo much again for fantastic video.Tough to hear about your back man.That is not nice at all.Keep it strong,and take care of it as best as you can .Greetings and respect,from the NorwegianCarViking, Stefan :)
Thank you Stefan!
FRAME 21:29!
I know EXACTLY what your saying, I’m cutting my teeth on my 1986 EEC-IV… I have the old snap-on brick scanner that can’t even communicate with the ECM,
as you mentioned in one of your EEC-IV videos “show me some perimeters and let me be done with it! 🥶”
Just got our asses kicked by a 86 Mustang 5.0! I don't want to spill the beans, but this comment isn't going to be seen by most, so I'll tell you. We got 3 bad ignition modules right out of the box! 4th one fixed it. Video coming soon. Don't say anything :-) Hope that helps you?
Loved your video, keep up the good work
if you are forced to reuse oil orings / packings ( non dynamic) Ive found that a bit of fuel lube or EZ turn lube will ensure a decent seal.
the best video I have seen , thanks so much Mr Danny love you
I sure hope when I go to sleep tonight I can unsee this video.
Haha not sure if that is a compliment or not
For that O ring I just wropped some PTFE tape around the base of the distributer where it meets the cylinder head.
Lots of info in all your videos. Recently bought your book and its great. I wish you could do this detailed troubleshooting on modern diesel cars for us in Europe guys.
you will find as you go through my material that 70-80% of what I cover directly applies to your diesel market. Unfortunately here in the US we have very few diesel cars so I literally never see them.
I have the same Craftsman timing light. I used it to set timing on my 1988 Jeep Wrangler.
Better watch them hoodie strings! Get them caught in that belt :O
Thanks for this. I have a 93 Celica 1.6 with an intermittent misfire, more so when hot but no codes. I think it may be the coil though, but this was helpful.
The signal's polarity reversed after the gap was adjusted! The bad signal appears to have been cap discharge...enjoyed the hunt!
I dont know, but i liked working on the 70-80' back than more than todays. i always think it easy.
Would the OBD reading have thrown a code for this? Seems I asked too early.
42:32 aqui estava sua referência de tensão 2 V/DIV detalhes que nós poupam tempo. Aprendo muito nos seus vídeos 👀🇧🇷
Is NE the same thing as any ... Just making a joke scanner... Keep up with the excellent training you offer Danner... God bless ..
Thanks for timing tip. I was unsure, do you change timing while paperclip is installed Te1 + E1. I somewhere read that without paperclip, computer automatically try fixing timing by itself.
Many thanks another great class, thanks for share this
"Air gap isn't right, it sucks to be you" I laughed out loud!
Yes signal getting over ridden with noise. If there were no adjustment I would have been tempted to slot out the hold down holes. Especially if you aren’t keeping it. Crazy how the one that was in there shredded the coil of wire!!!
Good video good job. Better put GPS tracking on all your tools. Every time you say the same thing,, where is that tool.
Great job once again.
What some people do for their kids, right.
Thank you for this video, thank you for your time.
Oooh, you know I'm gonna watch this later 👍
Scotty Favorite car
so I have heard :-) He is not wrong in his love for this model, that is for sure! These older Toyota's are bulletproof
Code 12(?), Ahh the good ole days before the internet. I still have my old books - prob should mail them to the Smithsonian. I was one of those guys that always set timing by ear; adjust and test drive, adjust and test drive. Def easier w/the right tools. Good vid, but my OBD1 twitch is back - you know where my left eye blinks twice as fast as my right eye. I thought i was passed that twitch after we left the 90's behind us. Guess I need to schedule an appointment w/a shrink for another session of Hypnosis to get rid of my OBD1 twitch.
Do you have any check on an older type toyota electronic distributor with seperare ignitor+coil outside.
Air Gap for the win
🤣🤣 Anyone else got excited when the CEL went out?
