    Also. I'm slow to understand videos like this. THANK YOU for taking the time to go slow and explain things in detail without missing a step. I was just thinking that this was one of the BEST explanations I've ever seen. Now I see comments from people complaining that you were too basic and repetitive. They can go to hell.

      Most people think they know everything, or there way is the only way. You have to absorb information.

    Thank you for taking the time to put this video together. Here is where we learn from each other. So I won't touch on repitition. It was a little hard to get through and other users have already address that.
    Now what you just did have flaws. U can be getting a spark from the coil but its still not good. There could be a short in it that affects the resistance the computer knows it should get from the coil. I recently successfully fixed a Nissan that had the coil firing, but the resistance from the coil was very low compared to the others. This caused the check light to come on and the computer throwing codes of bad coil and misfire. Videos are on RUclips speaking on how to do this test.
    Yet and still. Great video.

    I was hoping that I wasn't the only one hearing the screaming children...lol.... No worries dude, they make a lot of noise, but they sure are fun!!! I have 5 of them!!! Tehy made a lot of noise, then they grow up and move out, and you miss the noise!!!

      That's one thing you can bet on, people having children. I always tell people,"I can tell the future." They say, "how so?" I say,"the rich will get richer, and the poor will get poorer." Im always right Cowboy 😁

    Funny, at 4:31 - "Trying to look for something to point with". Grabs a Sharpie. Hmm, maybe the pointy end of the test light might have worked. :)

  • @ksk5517
    @ksk5517 3 года назад +1

    This could of been an excellent video. Camera angle is such that it is difficult to see which cable was on the lower row or upper row during your instruction. Since you are filming with only one free hand, perhaps using a better pointer would help in lieu of using a fat sharpie pen.

    Technically pull up is something different. I started calling it that because of what the waveform looks like on a scope.

    I'm going to go out on a limb and say Scorsese had no input directing this video. Bro you did such a good job explaining this but maybe get someone to hold the camera, put a sock in that kids mouth and re do it. I will say with all the distractions you did help me so I had to smash the like button. 👍👍👍👍👍

  • @nickb1875
    @nickb1875 4 года назад

    From yo explanation, I have noticed that those coils work th same as DC CDIs of motorcycles except fo th feedback wire. If the ampere and trigger voltage specs are th same, then they can be used as substitute of cdi and coil on motorcycles. Its like a cdi with ignition coil internally

    But the coil could be damaged if you don't have a perfect ground for the spark. As far as i understand, the spark goes back to the coil and it can destroy it.

    Brother.... you’re a great technician , but you need to think things through...
    You’re explaining/teaching about ignition systèmes and ecm related actions , no need to explain how a test light works......
    Keep it simple : say things clearly , and say them once....
    It’s incredibly hard to follow.
    Positive critisism buddy, I’ll watch more of your stuff for sure!

    How many times must you say something? Once is quite enough. Put a banana male plug on the end of your test light with a Fluke sure grip alligator clamp. It is easier to use and if you yank on the test light the plug pulls out without breaking the wire.

  • @runthomas
    @runthomas 4 месяца назад

    waste of time, ....
    just test the coil as he stated...if it works then everything is ok
    ONLY IF THE COIL DOES NOT WORK do you check for power and check for earth, and check for signal
    whats teh point in checking everything if the coil works?
    there is no point
    another thing yuo can do to test the coil is ...remove a spark plug and put it in the coil....then you can just see it spark or not, when you liven up the signal wire
    instead of messing about all over the place trying to get a spark. ...ps take 2 spark plugs out in case the one that you are using to test with is damaged.
