You are an amazing man. You missed your calling, should have been a shop teacher. Your patience and understanding of electronic processes is uncanny. Having been a Cadillac tech for years, and before complicated electronics, we had more vacuum controllers,and had to chase a lot of lines like you do with wiring. I so enjoy watching your thought process as it's spot on. Also showing your family on videos makes it like stopping in at a local shop that a friend owns. Thanks so much for taking the time and sharing your knowledge.
Stephen Lawrence Having been a Cadillac tech must have been just awesome when it comes to wiring issues. I had a 2000 STS and wow, so much tech in these cars that its a wiring nightmare. You too must have copious amounts of patience. Hats off to you sir.
Shayne Baldwin I retired before all the computers took over. We had many problems in the 80's, moved forward too fast. My specialty was the v864 system. Sound idea, poor implementation,as at that time we didn't have the controllers needed to operate smoothly. The lag time for mechanical components versus the later electronic devices was to wide.
Stephen Lawrence It seems like Cadillac was the testbed for all the new luxury systems we would eventually see trickle down into the less expensive cars. Kind of using the Cadillac to work out the bugs assuming those that had bought these expensive luxury cars could afford to repair them and thereby identifying weak areas withing the system that could be corrected for other models or depending on feedback ditching the idea totally.
InsideOfMyOwnMind if I wasn't in a wheelchair I would be happy to. I remember one time a gentleman came in with a 65 coupe DeVille and complained that his a/c only blew through the def. and heater . I looked at the car and back then caddy put a restriction on the a/c line to prevent the hot air from blowing in your face. On one vacuum line there was a small time ing device that was plugged. I let the younger guys look at for about an hour, and finally went out and unplugged the t and removed the timer. Started the car and ta da all fixed. Little idiosyncratic things that you just learn over time. Those younger guys just stood and shook there heads and asked why? I told them Cadillac always tried to make the consumer happy. They never really got that back when that was the principal of a luxurious car.
Soooo, Hannah was the one who actually diagnosed the problem. Way to go Hannah!!! Great job. Eric, you should have staggered those soldered joints Ha ha.
I'm a 78 year old retired geezer that doesn't work on his own cars and holds his breath every time he needs one of his vehicles repaired. I am hoping that the mechanic shares your honesty and dedication. What I do share with you is a love of shooting. I go to my range almost weekly with friends and we have a great time shooting. I keep waiting for another of your range days.
Years ago an old timer showed me the trick of keeping some electrical tape wrapped around a small screw or bolt in order to work in a tight spot like you did. I like to keep a few loaded bolts in the tool box for this reason. Keep 'em coming Eric - you're running a clean show! 👍
To make taping easier, I always wrap a couple of feet of tape around a deep well 1/4 inch socket. It is much easier to spin the socket around the bundle than a large roll of tape.
Great patience and determination to find the bad connectors. Hannah is as fabulous apprentice and would be a great addition to your videos, i enjoy the fun talk between you both.
You are just plain Awesome! Your attitude, knowledge, the quality of all your videos but most importantly is how you always take into consideration all of us that don't have a fully equipped shop. Thanks for all you do and the time you take to help us all out in this "Real World" of ours. Hello from Albertville Alabama. Maybe someday I will drive up there and buy you lunch.
I'm a below-average DYIer with desires to do more despite my lack of formal training and a small toolbox. I draw great comfort watching you struggle with certain tasks, just as I do. Thanks for the encouragement!
I have an 2007 Malibu. I am glad to watch any instructional videos for that model and year. A year or so ago I had a start, no start issue. The battery & alternator were good. I thought it was the starter so I bought one and put it in. Still, same problem. I had it towed to Firestone and they wanted $1500.00 to fix it. Another you tube video helped me figure it out that it was the starter relay. I got a new relay and it has been running good ever since. Eric, I was about to say there is not relay box like that in my trunk. So I paused the video and went outside to see. Yep, it is back there. I plan to watch this video more than once. My Malibu is my daily. I need. to keep it working.
I have an appreciation for your knowledge of electricity and those machines. I had physics and a class in high school, but volts, watts, amps, ohms, it's Greek. That's why knowing an honest mechanic is vital.
Eric"O", good looking out taking care of Hannah's car troubles, she is lucky to have you as a friend and boss. Good luck to you Miss Hannah on your future schooling. God bless.
Eric O for boss of the year. I have watched every video you have put out and every repair you have made looks very professional. You should see the crap the shops do around here, which is why I am a DIY'er. The only thing I bring my cars in for is tires and alignments. After the last alignment I had done, my steering wheel was pointing at 2:00. I ended up redoing it myself with a string. Please don't let a few negative comments get you down. Most of us appreciate your hard work. Also thought your jokes were funny.
Some shops are terrible in West Phoenix. Had a misfire on my 96 Suburban 7.4L. They repalce the injectors, no change, they want to replace the CATs, I say no and take it to a muffler shop (much cheaper). No change, take it to another shop. They say the MAF is bad, replace that, no change. The distributor is off a tooth (which should set a crankcase/camshaft position code). After working on it for another 6 hours, they get the timing set right finally. Runs great now. I notice that the distributor cap changed color mysteriously from blue to black.....But, when you're 4 hours from home you can't work on it yourself, gotta pay scam mechanics.
Trick a good friend of mine taught me is to use a socket on a cordless and run the amount of tape you want on it. The socket turns into your roll of tape. Hope it helps. As always, great videos. Thank you
Don't listen to the folks who have their panties in a wad. The truth is, for every 1 person who has a negative comment, there are 9 people who are perfectly happy with the job you do (mechanic and video editor) but just don't say anything because they are too busy enjoying the content and keeping an eye out for current issues. LOL. Keep up the good work.
Even the best authors have haters. The guys i don't understand are those who subscribe and linger, watching every video and hating each one. Any normal person would click away from anything that isn't worth their time, and never return.
I agree that laughing off what some of these know it all's say is the smart thing to do. Why should you be an expert at soldering? You don't need to be a professional solderer to still do a real great job which you do. You're a top notch mechanic. Carry on sir!
Eric, I have 30 years of electronics technician & some 20 years in fixing cars, and still you teach me something every time I watch your videos, if not at least a good lol .sincerely Thanks..
Years ago I had a some mid size GM with no fuel pressure maybe a Malibu I can't remember. I replaced the fuel pump - lasted 3 months came back on a hook. I tested for power at the fuel pump grey wire, both sides of the connector. tested good. I had power so I replaced the fuel pump again warranty. (mechanics are one of the only professions your not paid when you make a mistake) This happened again (I'm a little dense). I removed the pins from the fuel pump connector near the fuel tank harness side and crimped them tighter - problem solved. Eric you have great diagnostic skills. I've worked as a diagnostic tech my whole life. "If you can do it others can too" No! many cant perform at your level. I worked for a few dealers and hate their money grubbing dishonesty. I run an honest shop and the Lord provides all my needs without dishonesty. Nothing has been more satisfying in my life to tell big dealer managers my toolbox has wheels and I was looking for a job when I found this one when I was working for the man. I enjoy your videos. You're a good teacher.
As a general rule,I always keep the old parts and show the customer what went wrong. Even if they dont ask for them back,I still save them to show them what was wrong. You are right,most people dont want the old parts or ask for them back. At that point, whatever it is that is yours to do what you want. I sometimes save certain things,depending if its got other usable parts on it. I sometime can pass that on to the next guy if it happends to be a part if I can use a used part. Swapping parts that are not specific to the right model can always lead to more headaches than when you started. Especial when the sales counter dude tells you" Yeah,it will work on that model" And it freekin dont,reguardless of what you try. Then you want to take it back and beat him with it till he cant walk right but by now its so hacked up you cant take it back,so you end up getting OEM when you ahould have in the first place but thought you might save a few bucks( yeah right!). Anyways. Its always best to ask if a customer wants the old parts unless its obvious they wont.
I had a similar issue. A guy called me to come look at his jag xjr. He had left it sitting for 3 months and all of a sudden it would crank and start but not run unless you gave it the beans on the gas pedal. It had spark, maf was good, and throttle body was good and so was egr. It had momentary fuel pressure at initial prime then pressure would drop. To make a long story short, the vehicle has an primary and secondary pump. At initial prime both are supposed to fire up, then the primary takes over but in this case only the secondary was working. He was told he needed 2 new pumps which would cost 3000 dollars. I checked the relay and sure enough there was no control side signal to the primary pump. Jumped the load side and boom heard it prime and car ran!!! Ended up a mouse ate through the signal wire. Weird part is it had no codes!!!! Saved this guy a boatload of cash.
At 22:18 he says "the best thing about these strippers is they don't cost you a dollar & you don't come home with glitter on you". Hanna..............................crickets. Classic!
You've saved me so much fing money. You rock. My 3.8l GP now runs like a champ. Turns out I had intermittent issues with the icm and the crank sensor simultaneously. Never would have bothered even looking into it if it was not for your videos. Now I just watch your videos for the fun of it since you fixed all my issues..
It’s amazing to watch you work. I am surprised though that with all the mechanical problems that you work through, not one swear word is uttered. I watch a lot of other videos of lesser quality, and talent and the mechanics swear like sailors. Thanks for keeping it clean!
David Fusco : Yeah.i do agree. maybe it's just old age creeping up on me but it's almost enough to make me wish ISIS woul come over(temporarily) and clean it all up,
I subbed after watching my 2nd vid, the 1st was the tow ride to pick up the dairy farm truck. I have been binge watching since then to catch up! This one was (as Tony the Tiger says ) GRRrrrrrrrreat! Absolutely loved the 2 where your wife changed her tires and fixed the wiper motor. So far your day in the shop was my favorite. Love watching you and your beautiful family at the shop. Take care and thanks for the enjoyment you give to all who watch. Forget the troll that clicks thumbs down on all the vids.....Scotty, you know who you are, so do we!
barry8082 I took the dash apart and tested the overhead module wires and the ambient temperature sensor and wires while trying to figure out the air conditioning electrical in my dads truck, he tells me afterwards that the wires go to the ecm also, I then find all the wires I needed to test and most of the ones I was curious about and get the parts on that we’re waiting for the wires to be checked after a new connector was put in (to make sure there wasn’t a break further down) and then the fuse block was out to check why no power was going to the relay block outside and then it was done (and now we have $275 wasted into it because there was a leak that no one found before filling it...
Send like a lot of trouble just beating change in the Box when you already have it the worst to do it for what effect mode don't think it would do that on the shabby usually what I've seen is dodges
Eric, I watched the whole fix as I find it more interesting than TV shows. Showing the complete fix gives a clear understanding of just how involved a job is before I have to consider the time doing that job myself.
This was such a great video for so many reasons. Not only did Eric O. do a top quality repair as always but this time he got to do it for Hannah who works at the shop with him. Call me weird but it made me feel so good to see him helping out someone that is close to him and she'll know the repair was done right when she is away at college! Also i think it's worth mentioning that i really like how Eric O. addresses concerns in previous videos that viewers may have about his procedure. He doen't bad mouth them but rather gives them the reasons for his decisions. I read the comments and i can understand how people were were concerned about giving the customer the choice to get his old fuse box returned in the last Buick video. But would you expect Eric O. To not do the right thing??? As he stated he gave the customer the old fuse box, he looked at it, and then threw it away. So no harm no foul for him to take the fuses and relays for himself after the customer showed that he no longer wanted the item. I know ALL RUclips channels get some negative feedback but the SMA channel offers the highest quality repairs and greatest respect for its customers. I always spread positive feedback about this channel because the truth of the matter is, there is NONE better. This video is a prime example showcasing Hannah needing help with her own personal vehicle. It makes me proud to see Eric O. stepping up(which i knew he would) and helping others without the thought of financial gain. He wanted to make sure her car was fixed right so she wouldn't have any further issues with that fuse box. I'm proud to be a part of this channel and all that it stands for. Great job Eric O.
Electrical Gremlins require a man of patience and persistence something I don't have, great diagnosis and repair for your daughter, Hanna you have such a great Dad.
how can anyone not like your videos. you and Mrs. O remind me our mechanic and his wife (JB and Jessica). He is thorough and wants the job done right the first time. Mrs. H takes care of the front, taking calls, money and making appointments, AND Making Sure the Customer is Satisfied with Their Vehicle. Even tho this is an older video, i still enjoy watching and learning! Thank You Sir
Really enjoy this channel. Thanks for not just being a parts changer. Inspired me to start testing and diagnosing. Tested a clutch safety lockout, ignition switch etc. Turned out to be a hot soak on my starter 88 Sierra 350 sb. Saved a bunch not just throwing parts at her.
Good job, excellent diagnostics, and nice to see today's youth willing to learn ... and not protesting !!! As you get older, Hannah, you will look back and realize that you were taught that you can do anything - - just put your mind to it !!!!! Eric is a fine teacher - he doesn't yell at anyone !!!
Lovely seeing Hannah again. She has such a lovely, attractive smile. As for that fuse-box, I would add it to a whole rack of strange bits in my workshop, for that unknown rainy day.
Eric O. I have only 1 complaint. You and your family should be on ABC, CBS, NBC, or Fox. I can watch, learn, and really enjoy myself way better than any show on cable or TV. You should be paid 2-3 times better than any of the actors on TV. Totally entertaining! Thank you!
Then it will be ruined by advertisers wanting him to use their worthless tools and parts the whole show. Not to mention constant commercials. That's the exact reason I stopped watching any car repair shows on tv.
Just stumbled on to your channel! Most don’t have a boss like you so so Hannah is lucky. Thank you for the service you are providing here. Won’t bore you with accolades as I’m sure you are probably bored with them by now. Your content is informative and entertaining. Keep it up I’m sure you will cover something I need.
What I don't understand is why SMA only has 87k subs . I watching a ChrisFix video yesterday and he has 2.37 mil subs . Don't get me wrong I think his videos are fine, BUT crap compared to Eric's . This guy needs way more credit for what he does. Keep up the good job.
Not me it seems like I learn something in most of your diagnosis videos and i really enjoy it. Also how you prove yourself before repair/replace the problem. I wish I was better about that years back I installed a new fuel pump only to find out it was the fuse. next time i wasn't so quick to start throwing parts at the problem.
Let me sound selfish for a bit, ironically .... I prefer this channel doesnt grow so much ... all the channels that hit 1M or 2M subs started crapping or go behind a paywall They were amazing back when they had 100K. But this makes sense. The person on the other side is a human being so no way to run a shop, and generate content for this amount of viewers. Hats off for you Eric to keep the quality and the effort on even reading the comments. And dont even waste your time on the negative comments .... Just like other person said, for each negative you have 9 positives. This is YT ... "that is your problem lady" LOL.
The upper limit on the number of subs has more to do with the popularity of the subject than quality of content. ChrisFix's videos are aimed at people who want to start working on their own cars, but don't have access to lifts or shop tools. SMA caters more for the person who wants to understand the mindset of the professional mechanic, and the diagnostic process.
Well, I've been watching you off and on for awhile now and determined you're not a fly-by-night, back yard vehicle mechanic. So, I subscribed with bell on. So far you've fixed 3 of issues with my 2007 siverado and you've got my vote for best on-line experience to follow. Please, keep your channel going. Also, the commentary/sarcasm is awesome. Thanks from Waco, TX.
Been watching many of your diagnostic and repair videos without ever commenting but I have to. I have few words for you sir: Do what you do as usual and don't bother with picky comments even if they were correct. No one is perfect but you are close to perfection. Taking the viewer in your stream of thoughts is very great tool you use. Thank you for taking the time to educated us. Glad the beautiful young Hanna got her hotrod back. Thanks again.
Keep up the great work!!!! Videos I mean..... It's great to see good-natured people having fun with each other while they're getting the job done right!!!
Typical GM wiring harnesses. At least Hannah took it to the best shop in the United States to get it properly fixed.. oh yea what's it called, South Main Auto...lol. Great video as usual Eric. Have a great and safe weekend...👍🤘
Lucky to have Hanna to help even with her own car!!! I remembering the other times she was in the background handing you the tools!!! I think she is glad she did now cause your helping her out now!!!
Wonder if this problem required Hanna to go walkin in her maliboots? This fix was above and beyond what even a dealer would likely have done, GREAT WORK!
Again, I am commenting from a professional view having spent over 50 years as a mechanic. This man is good, actually great. My question is who are these total idiots who have down voted him? Not one of them could have even known where to start fixing this car. This reminds me of what a friend used to say "Creeps are a dime a dozen".
Well, it has been 19 yrs since I was a certified mechanic and I miss it. Your videos make me want to go back. (can’t afford to go back). I then spent the next 13.5 yrs working on 50 yr old industrial gas compression equipment. I miss this too. For the last 6 yrs I am supporting the entire company in staying in compliance with regulating agencies. Thanks for your content. It’s good to see a professional at work. Admitting mistakes when and if they happen. Good diagnostic skills and solid Enginuity. Keep it up. Other than my own and family vehicles, I get my fix right here!
Thank u for being the first dad teaching your daughters how to work on cars, I think that's wonderfull, never send know other mechanics do that before.
This is only the second video of yours I've watched. You and Hannah work well enough together I can't tell if she's family, employee, or both. And that's honestly great.
Very smart girl how many girls Would of even thought to tap on the gas tank she even Knew where the really was She has Learned a lot from you she has been pain attention My hat is off to her 🙂🙂😎
I just did 2013 Malibu about a year ago same thing happened contact was loose Caused the wire To burn back about inch and a 1/2 After repair car was running perfect customer was happy. year later car still running. Thanks for your videos I like to watch them helps me learn more.
The things that people complain about. Those people can't be living in the real automotive repair world. Don't want the dangers of solder smoke, find another line of work. Well done repair, Eric. I'm sure Hannah appreciates the effort.
Loved the video. Instantly hooked and subscribed. My 06 Malibu Maxx SS is doing the same thing. I'll be checking for burnt wires on the fuse box next. Thanks.
Automotive electronics are boring and confusing and I can't believe myself actually watched this whole video with all the what not and what have you. Thank you Hannah for getting a good start on the diagnosis. If I was there when you were stranded I would have held the flashlight for you. Good job Eric and Hannah.

They never really got that back when that was the principal of a luxurious car.
This Channel has to be the best Automotive Repair Channel out there
'If I could do it, You could do it!' Is sooo encouraging! Your a sensation.
Soooo, Hannah was the one who actually diagnosed the problem. Way to go Hannah!!! Great job. Eric, you should have staggered those soldered joints Ha ha.
Haha I KNOW I KNOW!!
Hannah's motto: Improvise, Adapt, Overcome good diagnose. Go SMA!
Man, you are lucky having such a nice and smart shop asistant.
There's an old saying that says I like work and I can watch people work all day long" For some reason watching Eric work relaxes me.
The way Hannah looks at you and smiles is priceless great job
simp
yeah, we know how she is going to "pay" for that job!
@@spydersniiper dude, yikes. That’s probably his daughter.
@@charkswitlazers I thought she was his daughter, at least a relative.
She is his daughter, looks just like him. Guy with the first comment is a real jerk.
You do the repair and Hanna does the cleanup sounds like a win win, now that is what I call team work.
I'm a 78 year old retired geezer that doesn't work on his own cars and holds his breath every time he needs one of his vehicles repaired. I am hoping that the mechanic shares your honesty and dedication. What I do share with you is a love of shooting. I go to my range almost weekly with friends and we have a great time shooting. I keep waiting for another of your range days.
@Bobby Brady cocaine and strippers
Years ago an old timer showed me the trick of keeping some electrical tape wrapped around a small screw or bolt in order to work in a tight spot like you did. I like to keep a few loaded bolts in the tool box for this reason. Keep 'em coming Eric - you're running a clean show! 👍
Man, you are a REALLY good and honest mechanic!!! Wish there were more like u. Dealerships included!!! I just subscribed!!!!!
Once again Dr. O has found the bad connection. A little minor surgery and all is well. Thanks for taking care of Hannah, she is truly an asset to SMA.
To make taping easier, I always wrap a couple of feet of tape around a deep well 1/4 inch socket. It is much easier to spin the socket around the bundle than a large roll of tape.
N747PA great tip! Thanks for sharing that. :)
N747PA thanks for that tip. Cheers
Great tip. Thanks
Brilliant
Golden Tip!
Great patience and determination to find the bad connectors. Hannah is as fabulous apprentice and would be a great addition to your videos, i enjoy the fun talk between you both.
You are just plain Awesome! Your attitude, knowledge, the quality of all your videos but most importantly is how you always take into consideration all of us that don't have a fully equipped shop. Thanks for all you do and the time you take to help us all out in this "Real World" of ours.
Hello from Albertville Alabama. Maybe someday I will drive up there and buy you lunch.
Glad to see you helping her out. She seems like a real good person and very helpful.👍🏼
Dude,, your charisma is outstanding, you could make a "How to watch paint dry" video entertaining.
Lol I will try that sometime and see how it goes

He could have a real TV show!! I'll watch!!!
You’ve got to give Hannah credit for checking the FP relay.
I'm a below-average DYIer with desires to do more despite my lack of formal training and a small toolbox. I draw great comfort watching you struggle with certain tasks, just as I do. Thanks for the encouragement!
Thanks Hannah, my Daughter did her brakes today after watching this last week! It it wasn't for you she would have never done it.
Hannah seems like a really nice young lady. Nice work.
I like hannah
I have an 2007 Malibu. I am glad to watch any instructional videos for that model and year. A year or so ago I had a start, no start issue. The battery & alternator were good. I thought it was the starter so I bought one and put it in. Still, same problem. I had it towed to Firestone and they wanted $1500.00 to fix it. Another you tube video helped me figure it out that it was the starter relay. I got a new relay and it has been running good ever since. Eric, I was about to say there is not relay box like that in my trunk. So I paused the video and went outside to see. Yep, it is back there. I plan to watch this video more than once. My Malibu is my daily. I need. to keep it working.
I have an appreciation for your knowledge of electricity and those machines. I had physics and a class in high school, but volts, watts, amps, ohms, it's Greek. That's why knowing an honest mechanic is vital.
Eric"O", good looking out taking care of Hannah's car troubles, she is lucky to have you as a friend and boss. Good luck to you Miss Hannah on your future schooling. God bless.
She says TY!
well said, krista
Oh I thought she was his daughter they look alike.
@@enlightenednews5265 Quit insulting Hannah❗
Eric O for boss of the year. I have watched every video you have put out and every repair you have made looks very professional. You should see the crap the shops do around here, which is why I am a DIY'er. The only thing I bring my cars in for is tires and alignments. After the last alignment I had done, my steering wheel was pointing at 2:00. I ended up redoing it myself with a string. Please don't let a few negative comments get you down. Most of us appreciate your hard work. Also thought your jokes were funny.
Some shops are terrible in West Phoenix. Had a misfire on my 96 Suburban 7.4L. They repalce the injectors, no change, they want to replace the CATs, I say no and take it to a muffler shop (much cheaper). No change, take it to another shop. They say the MAF is bad, replace that, no change. The distributor is off a tooth (which should set a crankcase/camshaft position code). After working on it for another 6 hours, they get the timing set right finally. Runs great now. I notice that the distributor cap changed color mysteriously from blue to black.....But, when you're 4 hours from home you can't work on it yourself, gotta pay scam mechanics.
Great to finally see the repair done correctly I give you an A+ expertly done
You are definitely one of the best on electrical problems. Really appreciate you.
Trick a good friend of mine taught me is to use a socket on a cordless and run the amount of tape you want on it. The socket turns into your roll of tape. Hope it helps. As always, great videos. Thank you
Perfect tip!
Don't listen to the folks who have their panties in a wad. The truth is, for every 1 person who has a negative comment, there are 9 people who are perfectly happy with the job you do (mechanic and video editor) but just don't say anything because they are too busy enjoying the content and keeping an eye out for current issues. LOL. Keep up the good work.
Even the best authors have haters. The guys i don't understand are those who subscribe and linger, watching every video and hating each one. Any normal person would click away from anything that isn't worth their time, and never return.
I agree that laughing off what some of these know it all's say is the smart thing to do. Why should you be an expert at soldering? You don't need to be a professional solderer to still do a real great job which you do. You're a top notch mechanic. Carry on sir!
Eric, I have 30 years of electronics technician & some 20 years in fixing cars, and still you teach me something every time I watch your videos, if not at least a good lol .sincerely Thanks..
Years ago I had a some mid size GM with no fuel pressure maybe a Malibu I can't remember. I replaced the fuel pump - lasted 3 months came back on a hook. I tested for power at the fuel pump grey wire, both sides of the connector. tested good. I had power so I replaced the fuel pump again warranty. (mechanics are one of the only professions your not paid when you make a mistake) This happened again (I'm a little dense). I removed the pins from the fuel pump connector near the fuel tank harness side and crimped them tighter - problem solved. Eric you have great diagnostic skills. I've worked as a diagnostic tech my whole life. "If you can do it others can too" No! many cant perform at your level. I worked for a few dealers and hate their money grubbing dishonesty. I run an honest shop and the Lord provides all my needs without dishonesty. Nothing has been more satisfying in my life to tell big dealer managers my toolbox has wheels and I was looking for a job when I found this one when I was working for the man. I enjoy your videos. You're a good teacher.
As a general rule,I always keep the old parts and show the customer what went wrong. Even if they dont ask for them back,I still save them to show them what was wrong. You are right,most people dont want the old parts or ask for them back. At that point, whatever it is that is yours to do what you want. I sometimes save certain things,depending if its got other usable parts on it. I sometime can pass that on to the next guy if it happends to be a part if I can use a used part. Swapping parts that are not specific to the right model can always lead to more headaches than when you started. Especial when the sales counter dude tells you" Yeah,it will work on that model" And it freekin dont,reguardless of what you try. Then you want to take it back and beat him with it till he cant walk right but by now its so hacked up you cant take it back,so you end up getting OEM when you ahould have in the first place but thought you might save a few bucks( yeah right!). Anyways. Its always best to ask if a customer wants the old parts unless its obvious they wont.
I had a similar issue. A guy called me to come look at his jag xjr. He had left it sitting for 3 months and all of a sudden it would crank and start but not run unless you gave it the beans on the gas pedal. It had spark, maf was good, and throttle body was good and so was egr. It had momentary fuel pressure at initial prime then pressure would drop. To make a long story short, the vehicle has an primary and secondary pump. At initial prime both are supposed to fire up, then the primary takes over but in this case only the secondary was working. He was told he needed 2 new pumps which would cost 3000 dollars. I checked the relay and sure enough there was no control side signal to the primary pump. Jumped the load side and boom heard it prime and car ran!!! Ended up a mouse ate through the signal wire. Weird part is it had no codes!!!! Saved this guy a boatload of cash.

Are you serious?
@@donniebunkerboi9975 Dude you got to be kidding me... context is everything. I guess normal thinking isnt normal now a'days
You've saved me so much fing money. You rock. My 3.8l GP now runs like a champ. Turns out I had intermittent issues with the icm and the crank sensor simultaneously. Never would have bothered even looking into it if it was not for your videos. Now I just watch your videos for the fun of it since you fixed all my issues..
It’s amazing to watch you work. I am surprised though that with all the mechanical problems that you work through, not one swear word is uttered. I watch a lot of other videos of lesser quality, and talent and the mechanics swear like sailors. Thanks for keeping it clean!
He specifically spoke about it in one video. He’s not allowed to curse on videos.
Swearing is part of such work. How else does the machine know who’s boss..?

: Yeah.i do agree. maybe it's just old age creeping up on me but it's almost enough to make me wish ISIS woul come over(temporarily) and clean it all up,
I subbed after watching my 2nd vid, the 1st was the tow ride to pick up the dairy farm truck. I have been binge watching since then to catch up! This one was (as Tony the Tiger says ) GRRrrrrrrrreat! Absolutely loved the 2 where your wife changed her tires and fixed the wiper motor. So far your day in the shop was my favorite. Love watching you and your beautiful family at the shop. Take care and thanks for the enjoyment you give to all who watch. Forget the troll that clicks thumbs down on all the vids.....Scotty, you know who you are, so do we!
I subbed after watching the tow truck ride
You're one of the few people that could endorse a product and I would listen. I respect your opinions.
And another awesome video! Thank you for taking us along. You are hands down my FAVORITE mechanic!
That's a good fix on Hannah's car she don't need to be broke down on side of the road these days and times.
joe tiller these days? How about any days....
I was "shocked" at the "current pun " it was reVOLTing... love watching you troubleshoot. Keep it up and thanks!
no wonder some mechanics do not like diagnosing electrical faults. great job
barry8082 I took the dash apart and tested the overhead module wires and the ambient temperature sensor and wires while trying to figure out the air conditioning electrical in my dads truck, he tells me afterwards that the wires go to the ecm also, I then find all the wires I needed to test and most of the ones I was curious about and get the parts on that we’re waiting for the wires to be checked after a new connector was put in (to make sure there wasn’t a break further down) and then the fuse block was out to check why no power was going to the relay block outside and then it was done (and now we have $275 wasted into it because there was a leak that no one found before filling it...
I'm not a car mechanic but I'm an Industrial Controls and maintenance technician. I hate having to trace electrical issues.
Send like a lot of trouble just beating change in the Box when you already have it the worst to do it for what effect mode don't think it would do that on the shabby usually what I've seen is dodges
Most mechanics can't diagnose electrical anything.
I dont think that its they dont like it , as much as not every mechanic understands electronic or electrical troubleshooting
The thing about having a mechanic as a dad is he'll never just buy you a new car lol
Eric, I watched the whole fix as I find it more interesting than TV shows. Showing the complete fix gives a clear understanding of just how involved a job is before I have to consider the time doing that job myself.
This was such a great video for so many reasons. Not only did Eric O. do a top quality repair as always but this time he got to do it for Hannah who works at the shop with him. Call me weird but it made me feel so good to see him helping out someone that is close to him and she'll know the repair was done right when she is away at college! Also i think it's worth mentioning that i really like how Eric O. addresses concerns in previous videos that viewers may have about his procedure. He doen't bad mouth them but rather gives them the reasons for his decisions. I read the comments and i can understand how people were were concerned about giving the customer the choice to get his old fuse box returned in the last Buick video. But would you expect Eric O. To not do the right thing??? As he stated he gave the customer the old fuse box, he looked at it, and then threw it away. So no harm no foul for him to take the fuses and relays for himself after the customer showed that he no longer wanted the item. I know ALL RUclips channels get some negative feedback but the SMA channel offers the highest quality repairs and greatest respect for its customers. I always spread positive feedback about this channel because the truth of the matter is, there is NONE better. This video is a prime example showcasing Hannah needing help with her own personal vehicle. It makes me proud to see Eric O. stepping up(which i knew he would) and helping others without the thought of financial gain. He wanted to make sure her car was fixed right so she wouldn't have any further issues with that fuse box. I'm proud to be a part of this channel and all that it stands for. Great job Eric O.
Electrical Gremlins require a man of patience and persistence something I don't have, great diagnosis and repair for your daughter, Hanna you have such a great Dad.
Great job! I know Miss Hannah appreciated it.
Who gives a rip what other people think about your work…you’re a top notch
mechanic/technician combo.
"Taping it up like it's gonna run" There's no pt2. I knew it would run too! 😁💪💪👍👍👍
Stripper references was hilarious! They don't come home with glitter on them!
how can anyone not like your videos. you and Mrs. O remind me our mechanic and his wife (JB and Jessica). He is thorough and wants the job done right the first time. Mrs. H takes care of the front, taking calls, money and making appointments, AND Making Sure the Customer is Satisfied with Their Vehicle. Even tho this is an older video, i still enjoy watching and learning! Thank You Sir
Really enjoy this channel. Thanks for not just being a parts changer. Inspired me to start testing and diagnosing. Tested a clutch safety lockout, ignition switch etc. Turned out to be a hot soak on my starter 88 Sierra 350 sb. Saved a bunch not just throwing parts at her.
Good job, excellent diagnostics, and nice to see today's youth willing to learn ... and not protesting !!! As you get older, Hannah, you will look back and realize that you were taught that you can do anything - - just put your mind to it !!!!! Eric is a fine teacher - he doesn't yell at anyone !!!
She's Beautiful ♡
Very
Agreed!!! ...Damsel in distress!!
Agrees. She is smart and nice too.
Good job even though she makes it look good 😎
@Don Dubray you sir, are a jackass.
Another great repair! Love the extra steps you take to show us the repair.
Lovely seeing Hannah again. She has such a lovely, attractive smile. As for that fuse-box, I would add it to a whole rack of strange bits in my workshop, for that unknown rainy day.
Eric O. I have only 1 complaint. You and your family should be on ABC, CBS, NBC, or Fox. I can watch, learn, and really enjoy myself way better than any show on cable or TV. You should be paid 2-3 times better than any of the actors on TV. Totally entertaining! Thank you!
Then it will be ruined by advertisers wanting him to use their worthless tools and parts the whole show. Not to mention constant commercials. That's the exact reason I stopped watching any car repair shows on tv.
Ala, Tool Time?
Not for a good reason, but glad to see Hanna star in her own video before she leaves, she'll be missed
She will be missed dearly :(
Its great to have a trustworthy mechanic a woman can trust, bravo Eric...😂
Just stumbled on to your channel! Most don’t have a boss like you so so Hannah is lucky. Thank you for the service you are providing here. Won’t bore you with accolades as I’m sure you are probably bored with them by now. Your content is informative and entertaining. Keep it up I’m sure you will cover something I need.
What I don't understand is why SMA only has 87k subs . I watching a ChrisFix video yesterday and he has 2.37 mil subs . Don't get me wrong I think his videos are fine, BUT crap compared to Eric's . This guy needs way more credit for what he does. Keep up the good job.
More people want to know how to wash their windshield than diagnose a no start trust me
Not me it seems like I learn something in most of your diagnosis videos and i really enjoy it. Also how you prove yourself before repair/replace the problem. I wish I was better about that years back I installed a new fuel pump only to find out it was the fuse. next time i wasn't so quick to start throwing parts at the problem.
South Main Auto Repair Now that is priceless!
Let me sound selfish for a bit, ironically .... I prefer this channel doesnt grow so much ... all the channels that hit 1M or 2M subs started crapping or go behind a paywall They were amazing back when they had 100K. But this makes sense. The person on the other side is a human being so no way to run a shop, and generate content for this amount of viewers. Hats off for you Eric to keep the quality and the effort on even reading the comments. And dont even waste your time on the negative comments .... Just like other person said, for each negative you have 9 positives. This is YT ... "that is your problem lady" LOL.
The upper limit on the number of subs has more to do with the popularity of the subject than quality of content. ChrisFix's videos are aimed at people who want to start working on their own cars, but don't have access to lifts or shop tools. SMA caters more for the person who wants to understand the mindset of the professional mechanic, and the diagnostic process.
Well, I've been watching you off and on for awhile now and determined you're not a fly-by-night, back yard vehicle mechanic. So, I subscribed with bell on. So far you've fixed 3 of issues with my 2007 siverado and you've got my vote for best on-line experience to follow. Please, keep your channel going. Also, the commentary/sarcasm is awesome. Thanks from Waco, TX.
I’m not too far from you neighbor. Just on the other side of Hubbard.
West of Fort Worth and 82 years old. I woke up the other night turning wrenches. It's in your blood.
Been watching many of your diagnostic and repair videos without ever commenting but I have to. I have few words for you sir:
Do what you do as usual and don't bother with picky comments even if they were correct. No one is perfect but you are close to perfection. Taking the viewer in your stream of thoughts is very great tool you use. Thank you for taking the time to educated us.
Glad the beautiful young Hanna got her hotrod back.
Thanks again.
Every neighborhood should have a mechanic like you! Dealerships would go out of business.
Keep up the great work!!!! Videos I mean..... It's great to see good-natured people having fun with each other while they're getting the job done right!!!
Typical GM wiring harnesses. At least Hannah took it to the best shop in the United States to get it properly fixed.. oh yea what's it called, South Main Auto...lol. Great video as usual Eric. Have a great and safe weekend...👍🤘
i dunno about all that I woulda gone to Scotty Kilmer ...done in 5minutes. ;)
lightningsmokerXx if she did, Scotty will blow it up. No. Bad choice. Eric O is better teacher, a lot more patience and diagnostician!!!
lol ....ya i was jut kidding. Everyone always jokes scotty will have it done & pop out of the trunk.
Scotty doesn’t actually fix anything, just yells and screams and looks like an idiot.
@@lightningsmokerXx So he's the one that put that big gob of silicone on it❓
Lucky to have Hanna to help even with her own car!!! I remembering the other times she was in the background handing you the tools!!! I think she is glad she did now cause your helping her out now!!!
Nice to see a young lady helping out in the shop
Wonder if this problem required Hanna to go walkin in her maliboots? This fix was above and beyond what even a dealer would likely have done, GREAT WORK!
No, a dealer would have replaced the box, connector, and entire harness for $200.00 more than the current value of the car....
Good location for a fuse box.....until the car gets rusty and water sprays up into the wheel well when driving in the rain. Brilliant!
Again, I am commenting from a professional view having spent over 50 years as a mechanic. This man is good, actually great. My question is who are these total idiots who have down voted him? Not one of them could have even known where to start fixing this car. This reminds me of what a friend used to say "Creeps are a dime a dozen".
Well, it has been 19 yrs since I was a certified mechanic and I miss it. Your videos make me want to go back. (can’t afford to go back). I then spent the next 13.5 yrs working on 50 yr old industrial gas compression equipment. I miss this too. For the last 6 yrs I am supporting the entire company in staying in compliance with regulating agencies. Thanks for your content. It’s good to see a professional at work. Admitting mistakes when and if they happen. Good diagnostic skills and solid Enginuity. Keep it up. Other than my own and family vehicles, I get my fix right here!
Thank u for being the first dad teaching your daughters how to work on cars, I think that's wonderfull, never send know other mechanics do that before.
Not his daughter! His employee!
She picked a nice color 👍
Nice job now no excuses for being late to work 😂😂
This is only the second video of yours I've watched. You and Hannah work well enough together I can't tell if she's family, employee, or both. And that's honestly great.
Hannah's smile is beautiful. What a cool chick. She definitely is an independent woman. Tyvm for the video.
Very smart girl how many girls Would of even thought to tap on the gas tank she even Knew where the really was She has Learned a lot from you she has been pain attention My hat is off to her 🙂🙂😎
sadly there are far to many guys who think tapping on the gas tank could cause an explosion, if they could manage to find it.
Hannah says "keep the POCKET screwdriver in your POCKET" Priceless!
but I tell her it pokes my man boob, no can do
Hanna, good on you for even knowing what a fuel pump relay is or located. You already have the knowledge that 1/2 of men don't have a clue.
More like 99 percent
I just did 2013 Malibu about a year ago same thing happened contact was loose Caused the wire To burn back about inch and a 1/2 After repair car was running perfect customer was happy. year later car still running. Thanks for your videos I like to watch them helps me learn more.
The things that people complain about. Those people can't be living in the real automotive repair world. Don't want the dangers of solder smoke, find another line of work. Well done repair, Eric. I'm sure Hannah appreciates the effort.
Yeah like I say, I have done a lot worse in my day and yes she is veru happy now and does not have to worry about walkin again haha
@@SouthMainAuto I don't know about that, it is a Cheeveey!

I hope we have more episodes with Hannah. IMO she's the star of the show. Such a nice looking and well demeanor young lady.
Hannah & Eric O, a great team if I ever saw one. Nice fix. KIT d
Good Video And Professional Fix As Always, bet Hannah is happy now, nix worse than not being able to trust ones car to go from A to B and back.
I started watching because I have an issue on my 95 camaro. Three episodes later I’m still here. Great presentation I’ll be back
"we are taping it up like it will run. That's usually when you get burnt" as a techie, this hits close to home xD
Best I take away from this video is the quality time between father and daughter. The rest of it was great also.
Is that his daughter...I thought she was the secretary
Miss Hannah isnt his daughter, she works for him as a technician
