Another vote for showing the process! You may not realize it but part of what we learn from you is hearing your thoughts as you work through the problem. Sometimes you take a wrong turn, but that might be the RIGHT turn for me if I have similar symptoms. So, just hearing that turn exists at all is still a gift. Thanks as always for sharing your experience with us!
I definitely enjoy the live diagnosis and hope that's how you continue to post. Those that do not enjoy that format can simply fast forward. Keep it up!
To you it's just another grounding fault, but to the viewers it's another good lesson that drives the message home. There'll still be plenty of views. My takeaway from this video is that if the crappy plastic engine cover isn't going over it's retainers properly, dab your finger in a random pool of oil and smear it on them.
Eric you might think it's a stupid video until a viewer who has the same model and same issue which might be a common issue with this particular vehicle, stumbles across your video and is like... OMG, It's a simply fix and thanks you. So keep on doing what you do!
I'll throw out a guess that with recent retirement of many boomers, the dearth of upcoming techs has left shops with only a few capable of electrical diagnosis. Many were trained to do repetitive tasks like brakes and tires, and were never given opportunity to learn a little more. It gets worse when all the challenging electrical problems are funneled to one tech, so when he goes on holidays or is busy, nobody is there to pick up the slack. With so much paying work to do, few want to spend time learning a possibly frustrating task that might not pay as well. The good news is the way guys like Eric O offer outstanding free education for techs, regardless of whether the local guys in his shop are willing and able to teach. Knowledge is power, and even mobility to move up to the next job elsewhere.
@@spelunkerdboomers? What are you even talking about? Most of their expertise was carburetor days with 5 or 6 wires under the hood. Gen X dealt with the transition to EFI & have been around through all of the transitions with various fuel injection & the wiring to go along with it.
Continue live diagnostics, please. This is important for those of us here to learn something in addition to the entertainment value. Great job again! I’m jealous that in my career boring for me is coma territory for anyone else - not 150k+ views worthy.
One of the things that makes you stand out and a reason why I have learned so much more from you than many other folks on the youtube is that you walk us through the process rather than just showing us what you found. The process is more important than the answer as the process when followed regularly will find an answer. Just showing us what you found is like identafix and following a bunch ofother people guesses. Learning to follow a systematic approach is the real treat.
From the PRNY, another NPR! (Well, it's close enough, one eye terminal). The cherry on top was using a finger dab to apply grommet lube after spilling oil when replacing the engine cover! A classic move 😂
Fixed that exact grounding point in our Caliber a few years ago, was an easy diagnosis because some guy down in Avoca taught me about grounding issues in Chryslers 😁 Personally I like the live diagnoses, IMHO the more of the diagnosis process we get to see, the more "complete" the learning experience
Agreed! Also, those “bundle stiffeners” in a wire harness might help guard against tiny wire chaffing/ positioning but sure seem to be “wonderful” at wicking moisture into the harness as well.
Yet another great example of a true master mechanic at work. Great example of your master technique that you employ in diagnosing the problem and explaning the corrective action necessary for the repair.Great video.
Eric, it's crazy to me that other shops seem to not have a clue. You have a no-nonsense approach that is refreshing to see. I understand so much more about diag and can use this against other shops to keep from getting ripped off. 😊
Just to let you know that I truly appreciate following along with you troubleshooting the problems. I feel that I learn a lot more that way instead of just showing the solution. Real world problems require troubleshooting or a wealth of knowledge. Thank you for all that you do.
I bought a 2007 Jeep Wrangler. It was loaded with active codes and ran like crap, so I got it for a good price. I've been using an Autel for years (way cheaper than buying a New car) so I plug it in and what do you know. I had it fixed in one weekend and it runs beautiful. Gotta have the tools and equipment if your serious about fixing stuff. God Bless you Eric for getting me into modern tech diagnostics.. I miss the old days Sir.
I think the nice thing about these "dumb and simple" videos, is we get to see them so we don't get burned. So many people throw parts at everything without actual diagnosis. I appreciate the little things, because they can cause big problems and big headaches.
This is surreal. I just made this repair on a family members patriot last week. Only difference was there were three broken wires in the harness. My first ever electrical repair as well, which thanks to your videos seems to hold up.
Eric, keep up with the live diagnostic videos. How you find things helps me as much if not more than what you find. Nice peanut reference. Thanks as always
Agree 100% with "showing the process"! Definitely like seeing your methodology, what you go after in the wiring diagram, and how you apply it to the problem. Caffeine, or not, you're an amazing individual on many levels! As is "Mrs.O" Absolutely LOVED the "finger dip" into the spilled oil in order to lube the "ridiculously large plastic engine cover" standoffs! Priceless! And, GENIUS! SMA is the GREATEST!
Even if you've covered a particular item before, I still watch because I always learn something. Here, you reinforced the principle finding the commonality of the issues, testing your theory, then executing the fix. Classic yet valuable. Good stuff, Eric!
Can a Jeep Compass get lost? All jokes aside. You are an excellent automotive technician. I don’t know what your rates are but I’m pretty sure you’re the right man to take a troublesome car to. Without the proper test equipment and knowledge a shade tree mechanic can spend more to chase a problem than pay you to fix it the first time.
One of the “Main” reasons I subscribed to this channel was that I loved the format. The journey helps everyone of us that works on our own vehicles or are mechanics. Keep doing what you do. People that don’t like it can skip the video completely or fast forward through what they dislike.
Featuring the often complicated hunt to find the problem is one reason why I like your channel a lot! Finding engine torque had shredded a wire recently was one of your best.
I have seen so many of your lack of ground videos that i just put in my ear buds and watch for the green puss that we all enjoy seeing . I learn from your videos to never trust a ground wire without a test and when they all go to the same place it will for sure have green crusts going up inside the insulation due to an inability to get a good shrink seal on multiple wires. Chrysler never disappoints!
Well well well, early bird gets the worm! Hey Eric, hope all is well, thanks for the video. Edit: it's also nice to see you look up the info, everything is educational.
Your videos are never dumb, the diagnosis and the mystery of where you find the bad part of a wiring harness is like finding the last egg at an Easter egg hunt. 😊
Not only did you "CUT IT ON", but you used it's own "fluids" to lube up the "plastic cover snaps" - omg - totally awesome!!! Oh - and you fixed the issue - double win!
I don't think these videos are dumb. It shows that experience doesn't mean you take shortcuts. You truly make me feel like I could do it too. Don't sell yourself short sir. Have a good night
By all means continue showing the diagnostic process. That's what the channel is all about, if I say so myself. Well, that and the much-anticipated cameo appearances by Mrs. O and Luna. You are truly on another level from many of the technicians out there. They are hacks, just filling space and collecting checks. You sir are doing God's work. You're living right and we appreciate you Mr. O!
Well done young man! One of my Instructors and a Friend ( two different People) the first thing they would say was "Did you check the Grounds" I don't know why? But it took years for that to get through my head. maybe it was from the door slamin drag racing I did for so long 5 to 8 wires Excluding Spark plugs. But It did sink in until OBD2 but then I was doing body and fender repair. Just dis connect the battery and or remove the computer and modules, saves time and money in newer cars. Now I'm retired. It's great to watch you do what I had my head chewd of for a few times now I can point fingers an laugh with my friends. " Did you Check the Grounds and other connectors before throwing parts at it!'
I like watching your videos. No politics. No breaking news. No volatility of the stock market. No talk of how the economy is going to collapse. Nothing about WW III about to unfold. Just simply man and machine. Thanks buddy!
5:06 Mr O. I genuinely appreciate you going through the process step by step as you go. Your methods and processes are excellent and always helpful to learn from. I like getting to see it live, and can take your process and apply it to other wiring/car issues. Thanks for what you do! Your neighborhood is lucky to have you!
Most of us technicians are Hands-On Learners so when you're running through diag I need to go through the step by step procedure and how you get there is helpful
Another real-life diagnosis of a common electrical problem. I love it. Great work again. I find it fascinating that these car companies can still have ground quality issues after making cars for over a hundred years. Really you car companies guys can't figure it out yet? WTH
When you went to get the pliers you said to wait but it went to commercial…😂😂. On another note got myself some General grabbers for the Tundra so I can traverse the New England weather this winter if we have any storms… always like these simple fixes it mixes it up. You know what we really need…? An old fashioned engine replacement!
Another happy customer. Not a stupid or boring video at all . I like your trouble thinking process and we all learn from you. Keep the camera rolling. Aaron from Canada.
Count me in for the "live process" community! I learn and gain so much knowledge and understanding watching and listening to your though process, logic, and GASP common sense. You may think you are "dumb" but I truly assure you my friend you are incredibly knowledgeable and wise far beyond your years! Perhaps a bit rough on the edges when it comes to drama or BS, but a true gentleman nonetheless. I would like to do a comparison with you and your mid afternoon caffeine... Instead of monster, I would curious to see you mix a mountain dew ams good ole Jolt cola, and see your bodies response to a mix of those two lol. Thank you for anotjer wonderful video. Much love n prayers from my family to yours.🙏💜
I too like the live diagnoses. It's very nice having the experience and knowledge to be able to look at a group of similar codes, and know right away what the issues is. Check the diagram, a few verification tests, and make the repair. Great video. Thanks
Customer surprised by "your car is fixed so now you can drive it like a normal car." Come back after normal car driving and you will have your sticker. Great work, my friend.
It really is amazing just how many people claim to be a mechanic because they got themselves a digital scan tool. The digital scan-a-scam crew is all across the country, but the good news is... Somewhere in the area, a guy or gal in some hole in the wall place will actually fix the problem. Appreciate what you do Eric.👌 Live is always best, definitely not convenient, but best none the less.🦅🇺🇲🤙
Eric: You may think it is a dumb video but I love the process and how you think about which way to go forward with the diag. Great job and stay close to the "G" spot!
Thanks for the live diagnosis videos. I have been in this business a long, long time, and I learned something every time it might be a little different from mine, but yours might take a shorter time. Thanks for the videos
Good job, Eric! Seems like a recurrent problem in your videos. I like to follow your thought process during diagnostic and try to anticipate the problem - never a dull moment 🙂
I’m a huge fan of the “lick ‘em stick ‘em shop” rants! I’m from down south and the fact that a MIL fails inspection still blows my mind! (I’ve also never see a corroded Chrysler ground in person!)
I like these "Sherlock Homes" type videos, and you doing it live is just fine with me. A pleasure to watch a great mind at work. I was amazed at how fast you figured out the problem. Thank you! P.S., Coffee doesn't sit well with me either.
Eric...been watching and enjoying your vids for years. I've found you very educational and entertaining. Kinda lost me after you went off about RUclips viewers. But I got over it. You need to quit worrying about the bad coments. If they don't like the way you do things. They can move on. Or start their own channel. Keep the vids coming
I have to say: I do like to see the live process on easier jobs like this, because it gives it more learning value, of how to dig around in the software and not just focused on the strategy alone; and it gives the "simple" video a little more depth and entertainment. but on much larger videos that are two and three part videos with a lot of different trouble shooting and rabbit holes that didn't work, etc. it's better to just jump cut to the data you found on those-- because it's already long, and it just keeps everyone on the path of the actual strategy; where all the drama is on the fun ones.............. So a mix of both is the best way to do it. It's good filler"... when needed.
Going through it all with the conversation is what makes it interesting and educational. We can guess as you find the "clues". Much better than the wave the wand and it is fixed on other youtubers.
Great video Eric ..keep with what you're doing on your videos. Don't change what works ! Because that was the attraction I had to your site years ago!!!.
Thank you for doing the video live. It helps to hear you talk about your thought process. I've learned a lot from this type of video throughout the years.
I like the live diagnosing. Electrical is far from my strong suit so I like learning from the best your processes, it helps me refine mine! Also, had my first money shot broken wire yesterday, don’t get many down here in NC!!
I prefer you going through and showing us how you get the information so just presenting it that way I don’t look like such an idiot when I’m trying to find it and I spent an hour looking for what I need
Another vote for showing the process!
You may not realize it but part of what we learn from you is hearing your thoughts as you work through the problem. Sometimes you take a wrong turn, but that might be the RIGHT turn for me if I have similar symptoms. So, just hearing that turn exists at all is still a gift.
Thanks as always for sharing your experience with us!
Couldn't have said it better!!!
i agree i love watching and learning the process not just the repair
I definitely enjoy the live diagnosis and hope that's how you continue to post. Those that do not enjoy that format can simply fast forward. Keep it up!
@southmainauto The hoodie is really really...... PLAYER
KONKUR
Agreed. I'm here to learn and reading a wiring diagram is vital! Thanks Mr O!
Me to
L o L ( Son of a mother ) 😊😊😊
Not a single one of your videos are ever dumb Mr.O. they are all very educational and we all love the commentary. Keep at it ole son.
To you it's just another grounding fault, but to the viewers it's another good lesson that drives the message home. There'll still be plenty of views.
My takeaway from this video is that if the crappy plastic engine cover isn't going over it's retainers properly, dab your finger in a random pool of oil and smear it on them.
I got here because of you Big Clive, thanks.
Right? Definitely keeping some spilled oil handy next time I'm working on my car 😄
Works good on squeaky belts too 😏
Eric you might think it's a stupid video until a viewer who has the same model and same issue which might be a common issue with this particular vehicle, stumbles across your video and is like... OMG, It's a simply fix and thanks you. So keep on doing what you do!
I myself really like the troubleshooting, without cuts, just like this video. Great job as always!
What a way to wake up! It always amazes me how some shops can even stay open without having the simplest of diagnostic skills.
I'll throw out a guess that with recent retirement of many boomers, the dearth of upcoming techs has left shops with only a few capable of electrical diagnosis.

Don't make it seggzual
I know these videos are "stupid" to you but honestly these are better than what you learn in school.

Personally I like the live diagnoses, IMHO the more of the diagnosis process we get to see, the more "complete" the learning experience
I AGREE !!!!
Yeppers
Agreed!
Also, those “bundle stiffeners” in a wire harness might help guard against tiny wire chaffing/ positioning but sure seem to be “wonderful” at wicking moisture into the harness as well.
And if you don't, you can just jump over the "ahhs" and "lemmi get this outta the ways."
Yet another great example of a true master mechanic at work. Great example of your master technique that you employ in diagnosing the problem and explaning the corrective action necessary for the repair.Great video.
There is not such thing as a stupid video from SMA, every video provides valuable information that someone will need sooner or later. 👍🏼
We can take he stupid video and use them out side to other problems we come across
Eric, it's crazy to me that other shops seem to not have a clue. You have a no-nonsense approach that is refreshing to see. I understand so much more about diag and can use this against other shops to keep from getting ripped off. 😊

love the wound up version of the 'O'. Makes a simple lost ground into a elevated grins and giggles show and tell. Thanks for sharing Boss .......

I enjoy the entire diagnosis process especially when you reveal that you are human by trying to use the wrong socket on a bolt. Awesome.
Even if you've covered a particular item before, I still watch because I always learn something. Here, you reinforced the principle finding the commonality of the issues, testing your theory, then executing the fix. Classic yet valuable. Good stuff, Eric!
I like the live diagnosing. Electrical is far from my strong suit so I like learning from the best your processes, it helps me refine mine!
I watch for the live diagnostics. Keep 'em coming!
Live diagnosis is the best for learning, as we get to troubleshoot the problem with you Thanks for posting.
Can a Jeep Compass get lost?

Is a Ford Probe only for gynecologists?
I love the live diagnosis/problem solving. That's part of what I love about your videos, a lot of other channels skip that.
I like this way Eric. I learn the best this way. Thank you for doing these videos.
I don't really learn much coming here but I sure enjoy watching the process. Thanks Eric!
If you don’t learn much, you either a) know it all already, b) are not working in this field or c) are not really paying attention 🤣😂🤣
One of the “Main” reasons I subscribed to this channel was that I loved the format. The journey helps everyone of us that works on our own vehicles or are mechanics. Keep doing what you do. People that don’t like it can skip the video completely or fast forward through what they dislike.
14:00 "I'm gonna do the best that I can".......that sounds perfect.
I like these broken wire or ground vids. My favorite is battery terminal replacement
Featuring the often complicated hunt to find the problem is one reason why I like your channel a lot! Finding engine torque had shredded a wire recently was one of your best.
Def live as a mechanic myself the full search and diag is what I live for!
I definitely like the live diagnosis! Thanks for bringing us along
I have seen so many of your lack of ground videos that i just put in my ear buds and watch for the green puss that we all enjoy seeing .

Edit: it's also nice to see you look up the info, everything is educational.
Mrs O cracks me up! 😂 All your videos are great, Eric.
The talents of the mechanic are LEGENDARY.....and as always, the commentary is PRICELESS !!
Your videos are never dumb, the diagnosis and the mystery of where you find the bad part of a wiring harness is like finding the last egg at an Easter egg hunt. 😊
I enjoy your live work. Thank you.
Great job, thanks for taking us along.
4:42 I prefer to see the process of going through the service data, I'm an automotive student and it's very helpful to see it.
Not only did you "CUT IT ON", but you used it's own "fluids" to lube up the "plastic cover snaps" - omg - totally awesome!!! Oh - and you fixed the issue - double win!

Good morning Eric thanks for the upload this morning
Never a stupid video, watching your thought process is helpful.
I like your live thorough diagnosis for us dummies that doesn't own a fancy scanner and have the experience.
Love the live! It’s all about the diag process!
Another real-life diagnosis of a common electrical problem. I love it. Great work again. I find it fascinating that these car companies can still have ground quality issues after making cars for over a hundred years. Really you car companies guys can't figure it out yet? WTH
When you went to get the pliers you said to wait but it went to commercial…😂😂. On another note got myself some General grabbers for the Tundra so I can traverse the New England weather this winter if we have any storms… always like these simple fixes it mixes it up. You know what we really need…? An old fashioned engine replacement!
I cant believe how easy you make this.. I love the logic and the checking
Eric, the reason people are "gun shy" is because they haven't watched one of your videos. Thanks for educating the rest of us. Nice
I know i wont understand how to do this ever but you make it interesting to watch with all the detail
Another happy customer. Not a stupid or boring video at all . I like your trouble thinking process and we all learn from you. Keep the camera rolling. Aaron from Canada.
Count me in for the "live process" community! I learn and gain so much knowledge and understanding watching and listening to your though process, logic, and GASP common sense. You may think you are "dumb" but I truly assure you my friend you are incredibly knowledgeable and wise far beyond your years! Perhaps a bit rough on the edges when it comes to drama or BS, but a true gentleman nonetheless. I would like to do a comparison with you and your mid afternoon caffeine... Instead of monster, I would curious to see you mix a mountain dew ams good ole Jolt cola, and see your bodies response to a mix of those two lol. Thank you for anotjer wonderful video. Much love n prayers from my family to yours.🙏💜
I fixed that same piss poor ground on my son’ s Compass when he started losing light circuits. You have a great process, keep on keeping on.
Yep, the live diagnosis is the best. What I do everyday. Thanks for another great video!
You took the logical approach, nice job, I'm convinced unfortunately most mechanics have no idea how to do what you just did.
I think allot of those other shops can't even read those computer boxes like he uses. Mr.O is a great mechanic.
He gets allot of junk Jeeps at his shop. I would never buy a newer Jeep. The 70 and 80 Jeeps were allot better.
Personally, I enjoy all your videos Mr. O! Live is always the best, because we get to live it with you in real time.
I too like the live diagnoses. It's very nice having the experience and knowledge to be able to look at a group of similar codes, and know right away what the issues is. Check the diagram, a few verification tests, and make the repair. Great video. Thanks
Customer surprised by "your car is fixed so now you can drive it like a normal car." Come back after normal car driving and you will have your sticker. Great work, my friend.
You need to warn us before Mrs O comes in with the double entendre. Too funny, spilled my coffee everywhere.
It really is amazing just how many people claim to be a mechanic because they got themselves a digital scan tool.
The digital scan-a-scam crew is all across the country, but the good news is... Somewhere in the area, a guy or gal in some hole in the wall place will actually fix the problem.
Appreciate what you do Eric.👌

Good job, Eric! Seems like a recurrent problem in your videos. I like to follow your thought process during diagnostic and try to anticipate the problem - never a dull moment 🙂
Before you commit to flying lessons you need to think how much is it going to cost you. Sometimes it is worth it. Love your channel.
I like watching you use the scan tool. We can learn stuff by watching
I just want to say it's like being in class for me. Have learned so much! So Thank You for live data and also hope you continue educating us!!!!
I’m a huge fan of the “lick ‘em stick ‘em shop” rants! I’m from down south and the fact that a MIL fails inspection still blows my mind! (I’ve also never see a corroded Chrysler ground in person!)
It was pretty obvious what was wrong from the video title, but it's fun watching you reason through it.
I like these "Sherlock Homes" type videos, and you doing it live is just fine with me. A pleasure to watch a great mind at work. I was amazed at how fast you figured out the problem. Thank you! P.S., Coffee doesn't sit well with me either.
When Mr O said "stay there, don't move" I literally froze and stopped chewing my food!
You sir, are a legend. And the locals know it.
Eric...been watching and enjoying your vids for years. I've found you very educational and entertaining. Kinda lost me after you went off about RUclips viewers. But I got over it.

Mr.O! If it was simple, the other shop would have completed the job. It is a perfect video for those who want to learn from the professor!
Always like seeing the process live
Thank you for doing the video live. It helps to hear you talk about your thought process. I've learned a lot from this type of video throughout the years.
I like the live diagnosing. Electrical is far from my strong suit so I like learning from the best your processes, it helps me refine mine! Also, had my first money shot broken wire yesterday, don’t get many down here in NC!!
I agree! Watching the entire process is helpful and entertaining. If I wanted to watch someone who figures out first, I would.
I appreciate your methodical process. Much better than shot-gunning parts, like so many shops.
You do whatever blows your skirt up mr. O I find it informative and interesting the way you’re chugging along
I prefer you going through and showing us how you get the information so just presenting it that way I don’t look like such an idiot when I’m trying to find it and I spent an hour looking for what I need
I really like it when you show the diag process. Thank you for the new video!
8 days without a video we was worried! Glad your back!
I know you’re not being for realzy but the “glad your back” after a whole 8 days is wild. It’s a legit thing, I see it often all over yt
Right in the peak of deer season ;-)
I've learned so much from you with your active diagnosis strategies. Don't ever stop. You are the G.O.A.T
