Hey man, This video was a life saver! I had a misfire and a flashing engine light /traction control light come on a couple days ago in my 2014 Silverado. Pulled the code it was also E3001. I changed the spark plug and wire. Didn't help. Saw this video and changed the ignition coil for cylinder one. Fixed the problem. Thank you!
Dude are you serious???? What else was happening to your rig at that time?? I'm having literally word for word the problem you're having but mines with cylinder 6. New coil pack came today. So grateful for any tips.
@@Ryan-bd5ot ignition coil it was running on 7 cylinders felt really bad check engine light flashing but good thing that my truck has warranty just pulled off the diablosport s1000 before going in to chevrolet dealership
@@Ryan-bd5ot no smoke now but when it failed it smoked little bit don't drive your truck like that you will blow the motor I pulled over and called a tow man..
I had scheduled an appointment to go to the shop. I'm pretty sure they would have replaced all the coils, all the spark plug wires and spark plugs. I'm out for less than $100. I owe you a beer...maybe 2
Let me ask you something hopefully someone can help me in my truck it had the round coil packs just like in the video but autozone gave me all square ones is that normal or should i just go back to round ones? My truck still misfires occasionally?
My experienced mechanic First replaced 1 coil and all the spark plugs and wires, per the scanner, did not fix problem, then he replaced 2 more coils, truck ran fine for 4 hours then problem returned again? He thinks computer may be the issue I don’t, wouldn’t the system tell us it is the computer. What should we do, change ALL the coils?
I accidentally popped out red lock on coil connector and know I can’t take it off so you have any advice what should I do… or we’re can I purchase just the red lock???
Not everyone has that computer my neighbor shared his way turn the truck on since its p0301 if you disconect the wire going to the spark plug #1 and the sound does not change is bad if it was good it woulda started shaking more is it correct or no
@@oncemore7116 Really? I'm used to checking primary and secondary resistance on suspect coils. So how are we supposed to check them then? Only swapping and using a scanner are our only options?
Hey I've got a 15 suburban and have had to replace 2 of the delphi coil in the last 8 thousand miles. Is this going to be an issue, has there been any updates to the coil?
I have a 14 with 40K on and it started missing like hell. # 2 & 4 plug wires were corroded to the point of breaking of at the coil when I touched them and the #4 coil was bad. GM puts dialectic grease on the plug end but not the coil end. Why I have no idea. The other six wires looked like new but if I change one I’m changing them all. Any one else?
Andrew Jones I had cylinder 4 misfire and in order to get a misfire you have to lose one or all 3 of fuel, spark and compression. So it can either be spark plug, spark plug wire, coil, fuel injector or lifter. The easiest and cheapest fix is to change spark plug, wire and coil (around $30-$40) if that doesn’t fix it it’s either fuel injector or lifter.
Trash ass trucks, my 2000 silverado has 200,000 and its sooped up and has never needed the coil packs. BTW at my work those trucks always come in for service a/c burning oil, heating up etc. nothing small like a filter replacement and those trucks were bought brand new from the dealership

@@jr70sav76 fixed yet brother ?? Any smoke from exhaust coming from your truck? Also have lack of power, hesitation etc

This was a massive help, I threw and engine code on vacation
Fixed my gmc 2015 Denali appreciate it brotha
Video is nice
But u showed the easy side
Try the other bank. That really sucks. There is not space.
Excellent video thank u i did it my self thank u 🙏🏾
Genuine brilliance. Will try this
Good job explaining , thanks
Excellent video, thanks!
Dude. You gave me a super “aha moment” with this one. 👏🏼🙏
Very helpful, thank you.
Good job sr.
Is there a way to ohm them out to see if I have a weak spark but not throwing codes?
Can you gain some hp by switching to an msd coil pack? Or is it not enough to notice anything?
whats computer are you using for gmc diagnosis ?
You doing very good job 👍👍👍 very nice 👍👍👍 video
Thanks
Thanks for liking
Helped me a ton thanks a lot man
I have the same problem. Miss fire cyl 1. I changed plug an wire an new coil an still has a miss fire on cyl 1
It’s probably the injector

Sorry I couldn’t make it through the you tube garbage commercials to get to your video
Yeah it’s the world we live in now. The revenue off of those commercials helpes me create new content to help people fix their cars
Just pay premium no commercials 💁🏾♀️
Is the PCB hose on the passenger side the same one as the drivers side ? im having a hard time getting off.
Anyone figure out the passenger side
By any chance do you know the resistance specs for these coils?
You cannot measure the coil quality that way.

How many coil packs does it have?
&
8

How many miles on it? Normally you want to change all of them around 100k

I have a 2015 gmc sierra and its saying cylinder 4 misfire is this the fix i need?
@@andrewjones9891 swap the coil from #2 to #4. If the problem moves to #2 it is the coil.
