They must have connected positive jump lead through power steering stud by mistake and that could have caused this as lot of time people don't pay attention how and where they connect those jump lead clamps. Impressive video and simple example of basic check.
You did your due diligence Luis and it made for an easy diagnose. I just wonder why a " garage " with a fancy snap-on scan tool has no knowledge of basic diagnostics. That fuse only blows after hooking up jumper cables plus to minus with the ignition off. They could have been in a lot of more trouble if the ignition would have been on. Nice video Luis. Again showing the basics of diagnostics that is so often forgotten.
I followed your advice and changed the fuse. It didn’t work took it to a friends garage and put it on the diagnostic tool. It came up with all those fault codes so I started with the cheapest option and ordered a new ABS sensor for passengers side. Got that fitted and all codes cleared thankfully it wasn’t a steering problem. Great video nevertheless thank you
Evening , Evening ! Watched this other day, how apt as now have a 15 15 Reg UK Punto , 1.2, with very similar. I use MES but I'm a car trader not a mechanic. Chasing out similar issues, I have the Punto after the Evo but basically still the Grande-Punto, basic 1.2 Easy model, Hill Holder Unavailable’ - ‘ESP Unavailable + Red light hard steering when cold. Red EPS warning light. Drive with hard steering and then restart after 2-3 miles, all faults then clear each time and lovely steering. Smooth, not notchy, CITY mode works great too. Thinking earthing or boot wires rather than the Column ( Steering ); do have Steering.Column internal fault DTC of C1001-49 mind !!! Plus brake switch, checked all 3 brake lights work & reverse. So have a number of cleared codes, most came back. Battery looks good , charged anyway. Will be cold crank checking it, wires to starter and earth.... plus boot wires 24,000, steering is lovely, perfect, once all messages clear on dash after re start, never fights you or notchy Any idea, cannot be fuses as not a permenant thing, will be getting a used column and taking Auto Spark next 2 weeks
Thank you for sharing your knowledge, I am not a mechanic but I was able replaces the same fuse and solved my problem without even taking the car for any diagnosis. Thank you for your knowledge ❤️
Could be I wasn't paying attention before but I noticed commercials on your video today for the first time-congrats on getting paid for your efforts. If it's been going on for a while just chalk this comment up to old age.
Your method of diagnosis is actually amazing.. I watch every video. How would I go about getting a car booked in with you as I have a car that 4 places cannot fix. Look forward to hearing from you. Thanks
Great video. Might be an intermittent short to ground on a rubbing wiring harness causing the fuse to blow if it happens again. Look forward to your next video :)
Great video , i have a grande punto abarth the steering seems fine but have intermitent errors when starting asr not available and hill holder not available , the scan give to me C0051 error some say it could be the wheel sensor , others steering angle sensor. What could it be? Best regards
@@LMAutoRepairsi did live data and the clutch switch is stuck in open position i removed and tested it and seems fine any idea what could be ? Best regards
Last week i had a Cadillac from a garage having imobiliser problems (my work is everything what has to do with immobiliser and ESL ). The battery of the car was replaced and before it runs without a problem. I asked the garage what they did, and they had scan the car on DTC's and found the immobiliser DTC. They delivered the car and a few hours later i start working on it. First thing i do is turning on the ignition and look at any immobiliser light or screen message. There was a screen message key not recognised. I check if the transponder from the key is readable, it was. Then i checked the reading coil on the ignition switch, that will activate when you turn on the ignition. and it didn't. Next thing was looking at fuses and found a faulty fuse. 15 minutes of work... I realy don't understand that mechanics don't go deeper or get educated into diagnostics and fault finding.. Some of them lvining in the stoneage i guess.. on the other side, i earn money on those guys 😛 I printed a complete diagnostic scan report and the find&repair report and brought them the car. After reading the report, he just said "Ok. thanks and till next time, your doing good jobs for us" i was a little bit stunned..
dont you just love when its just a fuse a local garage called me to look at a nissan rear lights work no front lights or switches illumination they said checked all fuses 2 fuse box under bonnet 1 under steering wheel and 1 in n/s 1/4 panel got there and had a think and trust no one start with fuses found 2 blown easy ? thanks for a nother video
Hi, I got the EPS fault in my dashboard. I did try all described in the video (earth, fuse, cables ect) all seems to be ok. Just a heads up the issue came after front tyres changed with new and tracking was adjust by the garage. Any idea what it might be? Many thanks
Boas Luís. Tenho um guilietta igual a esse e está com a direção um pouco dura, a direção "original" é mais leve. Não tenho nenhum erro no painel. O que poderá ser? Obrigado.
Im writing because i was in autobahn and while driving the steering wheel stopped working. ( on the dashboard i had the steering in red but when i turned off the car this icon dissappeared, now i dont have any lights anymore in the dashboard) fortunately, i managed to turn off the car and when i turned on the problem dissappeared. I fear that i have the same problem , i will go to a local garage on Saturday. But if i purchase a used steering coloumn how probably it might be that this problem might still occur in the future? So my question is: im gonna buy a used coloumn but how can I avoid purchasing a bad one? Thank you so much!!
Hi Luis, please let me know how to contact you or get a car booked in. Really struggling and think only you will be able to find the fault. It’s a Toyota IQ 2009… car starts and runs, however dashboard is like a Christmas tree and no communication to any module expect the airbag. Very odd as like I stated before 4 places could not fix it. Please let me know if you can help.
I do this as a part time, as a hobby if you like... If the car starts, that means there is internal communications between modules, otherwise, the immo would not allow the car to start... Start with the basics, power and grounds to the modules, then communication lines... 👍👍👍
My car is doing same replced fuse steering works fine but still steering at a wrong angle and shows steering corrector unavailable, esc unavailable, and hill holder unavailable what should i do please let me know... Thanks in advance
They probably jumped the car with clamp connected through that fused wire. When it blew the fuse they moved it to the starter cable. Simple fix crazy the other garage could not do Simple things.

What fuse was that have same problem very good video.
Great video. Might be an intermittent short to ground on a rubbing wiring harness causing the fuse to blow if it happens again. Look forward to your next video :)
Is a possibility...
Didn't came back so looks like my first theory was possible correct...
👍👍👍
Nice one Luis :). Must have been some massive electrical impact blowing that big fat 60 amp fuse.
Indeed...
👍👍👍
Had the same issue with the same blown fuse so thanks for helping fix the problem 🙏
😊
👍👍👍
Before replacing an 60 amps fuse allways check resistance of the cable if there is a short to ground else there is a big risk.
👍👍👍
Wouldn't the fuse just blow again
@@pk6336158 yes
Indeed totally agree with you, basics shouldn't be ignored😉
Thanks for sharing Bro Stay Safe👍
😊
👍👍👍
Yes always check the power and ground and start at basics first like Iven says aswell
👍👍👍
Thank you very much and I solved my car problem with your video
That's great!

Live data should clear your doubts...😉
👍👍👍
@@LMAutoRepairs i think my machine cant do that , is a bit more basic
Unfortunately that's what you probably need next, is going through live data and see if there is anything out of the ordinary...

I would try a scan first, and perhaps as steering angle calibration...

What’s the diagnostic equipment you use mostly
The Autel MS908P... is my to go tool...
But obviously, depends on the job...

Have you done the calibration?
👍👍👍
@@LMAutoRepairs no how to do that i have just tried steering left and right thing
I would have it plugged into a diagnostic machine to scan, and calibrate...
Your the best I've got it
Far from it...😊
But thank you!

I think when they jump started it they blew the fuse or that cable that they didn't route probably
Indeed...
I am for the blowing during jump starting...
👍👍👍
They probably jumped the car with clamp connected through that fused wire. When it blew the fuse they moved it to the starter cable. Simple fix crazy the other garage could not do Simple things.
Most likely was exactly that...

Strange tendency........the cars in the later videos have more then 1/2 full tank......hmmm.......new customer? :)
Coincidence.. I guess...

Why do they call it steering corrector

With your ability why are you working night shifts? You should be at cars full time charging £30 to £40 per hour.
😊
👍👍
Yet again, clowns jump starting a car off from the wrong side of a fuse. They need charging appropriately. Idiot tax needs to be levied 😁
🤣
