Great job. Never assume grounds and connectors are good. So many people only check the power side of a circuit. Retired car tech/shop owner after 50 yrs. Trying to teach electrical diagnostic theory to a lawn equipment parts changer last summer. Other than EFI on mowers and 4 wheelers , they don’t get much simpler than this.. But he still forgets ground side of circuits.
Good video! Few points to make here -- first, be careful with the Phil's probe. Flowing too much current can burn the piercing tips off the tool. There's no number specified, but I interpreted Phil's explanation to be somewhere between 300mA and 500mA to be the limit. Here's his short video explaining it: ua-cam.com/video/zqmUDTbW7DE/v-deo.html Second point is about the mitchel re-drawn wiring diagram. It doesn't tell you specifically that the green/black wire is ground (even though SG makes sense to stand for sensor ground), but the information is there for you to determine it. You followed the green/black wire to the ECT and IAT sensors. Both sensors are two wire sensors. Any shared wire between a temp sensor HAS to be a sensor ground wire. Temp sensors do not share 5v ref wires, as the pcm has an internal resistor and the sensor itself pulls the 5v down according to the temp it's sensing. ScannerDanner has a few videos describing this in more detail.

Good diagnosis Oz! Thanks for sharing. I think SG stands for signal ground.
Ahhhhh now that makes sense. Now I will never forget
Great diag! Never fire the parts cannon before testing!!!!!
Thank you. That is for sure
Great video, the best diag at its finest.
Nice fix. Good find with the new connector.
Great job!
Using fundamentals to solve a tricky problem.
Great job Oz.
Great Diag Brother thanks for sharing.
Experience diagnosis master mi respect para ustes pregunta donde puedo conprar eso conextor ke estas usado
Great job
Good video, thanks.
Thanks for watching Michael
Great job nice diag OZ
Great job 👍
OZ, BRAVO FOR CHICKING THE BASICS TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM CHEEEEERS.
Decent Diag Oz
Thanks for watching Fred
good video I want to know the brand of the 3 point piercing probe thx
Do you ever run into bad or no service info?
All the time that’s why I have more than one
❤it
