- This is the first Diagnosing with Dan video, where we'll go into much more detail on the diagnostic steps taken to find the problem with the turn signal and brake light on this truck.
What do you guys think of this longer, but more in depth diagnostic video? Would you like to see more of these?
Wow, I'm extremely impressed. Guy could explain literally anything to anyone. You deserve an award for your service sir.
Keep doing what you’re doing Dan. One of the best diagnostic videos I’ve seen so far and a great help for me as I have a 02 f350 7.3 crew. Keep you the great work. 👍🏻
RE: DIELECTRIC GREASE: God forbid I would ever try to tell a mechanic he is perhaps not operating on the best practices of his trade, but I would like to bring to your attention a common misconception with regard the use of dielectric grease. The grease is not intended for use within the socket connector, the grease should be applied externally to the body seam of the plug after it has been properly assembled. Dielectric grease is a sealer. A common misconception is that the grease is applied in the connector itself. Now in older equipment this misuse of the product usually doesn't create issues (although it certainly can), in modern digital micro voltage circuity the resistance created by the grease can be the difference between a reference signal being recognized or being ignored. Dielectric grease, counter to common myth, is not a conductor.
I have never seen a better explanation. thorough knowledge. No cute stuff. Thank You. I agree with the guy that said you deserve an award. Yes the long story please.
This video is absolutely incredible. You clearly explain the trouble shooting process and show how to read the vehicle diagrams. Thank you!
You are great! The "Missing Link" between man and machine. Absolutely perfect discussion.
GREAT VIDEO, Very methodical and well laid out procedure for diagnosing the problem. This can be used for ANY vehicle not just the Ford you worked on. Appreciate the approach and the step by step procedure.
I really appreciate the thoroughness of this video and showing us how to effectively trace a circuit and eliminate known good portions of a circuit. Others suggest taking older junk wiring harnesses with sockets for various bulbs, from high current demand to low demand, and make appropriate one bulb test connectors to quickly check the amount of current getting to the test point, especially when the typical voltage meter only reads voltage, not amperage, during a basic circuit test. On vehicles with airbags, Ford recommends disconnecting both battery terminals, and waiting at least 2 minutes for residual current to drain out, before doing any electrical testing that could conceivably set off an airbag, such as when testing the multifunction switch.
I enjoy most everything you do, Daniel. From a very long time viewer.
Wow! Great video! Thank you so much!!! 🥰 Your video taught me everything I needed to know to diagnose and fix my problem myself! 😳😁 There's no telling how much money you just saved me. You are a very good teacher and explain everything clearly and directly. Again, thank you so much! I look forward to watching more videos! 😁👍
Thanks for the educational information to purchase the diagram resources. I'm very new to all of this and I'm trying to diagnose my issues.
Thanks dan ivw watched two men working ont his signal light issue for a week or so and they couldnt find the problem. So i watched your video took notes went outside after they left and had it fixed within a half hour.. thanx for showing them that girls can work on stuff to when u have been tutored
Thank you for the time you took to make this video, it helps me to fix the same problem in my truck. I have a 2001 super duty, both lights left and right did not work, I change the flasher, the multi switch, nothing work, but watching your video help me to track the problem. thank you.
patient and true professional i have a 1993 RV E350 with same problem and you save me time and days of diagnosis thnks much.
this is a great video. You actually know what your talking about in depth. So many are, like you said, just to change a flasher or a bulb.. Waste of my time. This is informative!! Good job.
Thanks Dan this was great my truck had this problem. Now I see how to go about fixing it. Fingers crossed. Nice job explaining the troubleshooting.
Awesome video I love the way he's in-depth with everything he does.
Great vid,very helpful. Having same issue. I'm pretty mechanical but this really helped break down the system
Excellent presentation! Thank you.
