@@Diagnosedan hey my friend I would like to send you my autologic on my car and get your opinion I stay in Louisiana and every where I’ve taken my car it’s something different
Excellent job explaining a LIN bus with terms and analogies that the majority of American technicians can easily identify with. Great verbal communication about a mirror that had a "failure to communicate." Thanks Dan!
Wow...who knew a 'simple' mirror could have so many electrical connections. I've learned something new today and that is what I always try to do....even at almost 60. Thank you Dan.
"who knew a 'simple' mirror could have so many electrical connections" => Everyone on track with automotive development (tracking the features creeping into mirrors over time) and being able to read a wiring diagram. 🙂
For a long time, I skipped over your videos thinking they were over my head. In reality, they are just what I need. You really break it down for me. Thank you so much!
This video is awesome!!! I was trying to code the mirrors to work with my comfort access system in my mini r60 and I got a notice saying that the only way would work is if the mirrors were connected to the l i n system. So I wanted to educate myself on what Lin was thank you for the very informative video
Thank you. You are simply a legend in inspiring and instructive explaining everything. The videos are too good I just have no words and will continue to follow the channel. Long live good man.
The motivation for LIN was the basic challenge of replacing the seemingly ever increasing number of wires (and subsequently the size of the connectors which also costs money) to save weight, complexity, the wiring itself, with a low cost solution that allowed expandability (vehicle build features or options) without needing to install, and logistically support, several different wiring harnesses. The wiring harness would remain the same, with only the node functionality changing. To minimize the cost (and size) of a node was a huge challenge in overall architecture and led to the creation of a smart node. Basically a single IC that provided all of the electronics to run the node, which included the bus interface and decode (performed in a dedicated state machine and not firmware, at least for the dumbest nodes) the power supply, inputs and power outputs to control the loads. The reason LIN is not as "robust" as CAN, as stated in the video, is cost. The question posed to the engineers developing LIN was; what is the minimum number of wires to support a low cost node. The answer, as you can see in the video, is three; Power, Ground and LIN. I lot of work went into LIN, both in engineering approach and in demonstrating a basic feature set a minimum cost. A lot of OEMs did not immediately understand that the benefits of LIN actually pay for themselves, until studies where undertaken to understand all the actual costs of each feature and feature option (or potential upgrade after delivery) which was steadily increasing, and was needed for the OEM to stay competitive in the market place. One difficult cost to quantify, and that had much higher assembly costs than first thought, was the process of installing wiring harnesses and how the grater the size of the harness the much greater the time it took to install correctly. Handling large harnesses during production is very difficult and labor intensive. When wiring harnesses reach a certain diameter (many wires in the harness) they become almost impossible to route quickly, a lot of force is needed to place and bend the harness into a channel or clip. Another cost that was not usually included at first glance by the OEM at the system level was the cost savings in smaller connectors and connector pins (reliable connector pins are expensive), which can cost more than the wire itself depending on wire length. The system approach to LIN actually was taking shape as CAN was being more widely adopted and becoming less expensive. So what you find many times is an automobile architecture that uses CAN for latency (communication speed) and LIN for cost. For example, if we look at a door node, from a latency standpoint CAN makes sense for communication from the door to the body control module, so coming to the door you would see 4 wires; Power, Ground, CAN High and CAN Low. Form the door main CAN node (perhaps located in the door switch panel) to the other door control and features you will communicate using LIN with 3 wires; Power, Ground and LIN. For a generic dumb LIN node, the IC operates in a standard way (both for communication and control) and does not need to be programmed (the program is hard-wired in the device), which lowers the overall development cost. It is not like a traditional module where you have to write and install firmware (software). However, even the programming LIN nodes have dropped so much in price that it is now an option, but at a higher cost.
Never in a milion years i would want to know soo mutch about car network sistems before i watched your channel. Love your videos cant wait that you upload new content.
Thanks dan, really enjoy your videos. Short, full of tech and to the point. Being a factory trained tech of 30+ years, you give me inspiration that my expertise will always be needed. Keeping up to date and training is key to succeed. Thank you for what you do!!! Can you show a video on how to best diagnose battery draws on E class and S class involving front and rear SAM units.
Love this video Dan. I'm going to save this video to my oscilloscope training playlist. I also just added you to my youtube featured channels so others can see your videos.
Well I was probably one of the first people to watch this video when it was originally uploaded, and now I’m back again for a top up. 😉 Probably the best (educational) LIN-BUS video on RUclips. 👍
on the other hand, I enjoy very much watching your videos and I enjoying the technical procidous you use to diagnostics the cars DAN. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR BEING SO CAIN TO SHARE YOUR KNOLEGE
I'm one of those guys who is binge watching your old videos. Classic, great teaching! I find the videos are a little easier to listen at 1.25 replay speed. It makes sense that the LIN bus is slower and less reliable, with only one wire rather than two so less ability to screen noise. Interestingly, on boats a completely different communication system is in use, with the ability for scanners to read complex signals rather than simply 1s and zeros on the general party line.
When you've removed the plugs might also be an idea to check the compression ratios and change the points and capacitor. It will save time in the long run.
What can I say since I found your channel and I am developing and my skills have improved so that before I was studying on the internet only concepts and information lacking awareness and application thanks to you my skill in diagnosing malfunctions has improved to a great extent and is remarkable. Thank you for all the efforts made, may God protect you and take care of you from Every misfortune has left us an asset in knowledge. God has not increased our knowledge
Dan, better get a sleeping bag and call your wife to let her know you won't be going home for a while. And thanks for this very simple explanation of the Lin-Bus system!
Just subscribed. You helped me understand what books could not do. Can you please extend the tutorial bit deeper explaining the message format in oscilloscope.!
Thank you for the video pal. Never intercepted a lin network as of yet. They good how you explain it. I would of thought it migbt of been 5 volts the main power 🔋 to it like most . Surprised it was 12v . Every day is a school 🏫 day and your a great teacher
That camera is a fisheye camera which can actually see a little bit behind itself. If you look at the tiny spot in the very centre you can see it almost any angle you can look from. If you can see that spot, the camera can see your eye. As you move your eye to the edge and even beyond the edge, the spot moves towards the edge and the black circle around that spot distorts into a strange squashed ellipse as it also moves to the edge - one side of the circle is compressed into the vanishing space between the spot and the edge of the lens while the other side of the circle is compressed into the still large space between the spot and the front convex surface of the lens.
Fantastic technician I have been out of the auto electrical trade since 2007 but fund your posts fascinating. I still do bits and peices in my spare time but obviously technology as has progressed massively since 2007. Such a shame I can't warrant spending money on expensive tools anymore for example oscilloscope so I can just practice with new testing methods and unsure if the cheaper hantek versions are woth buying and which I should buy. Any help would be vastly appreciated. Keep up the good work Dan your an inspiration to the motor trade.
Awesome video Dan. As I am currently facing problems with my mirror. And driver side window control unit doesn't work . I got a code for short circuit in master lin. , no communication. This video sheds light as to what the problem is that I am facing
Watching your videos is very entertaining and more importantly educational in terms of auto knowledge. Thank you so much and keep up with your great work 👍👍👍
so darn clever, a mirror which needs 30 wires? .. now a mirror with no wires and no corrosion .. that would be clever. always enjoy your videos thanks.
I love your channel and had to learn English. Because you immediately learn theory and practice. Of course, progress is not worth it.Century Live and century learn. Valery from Russia
A lot had changed since 1957. In my Tesla, the spark plug is in the passenger seat. Scarlett is 5 feet 2 inches tall, weighs about 150lbs, size 6 sneakers, and I will stop there...as this is a family channel.
It's sunday morning in Montréal, Canada and i am skipping church today to watch some videos from DiagnoseDan ... I hope Master way up there will forgive me !!!!
Once the bonnet is open, facing the tossa, on your left you will find a boiler. Open the side door, and move the coal asside. There you will find the sparking gap plug. P.S the new diesel are coming out the same sparking gap unit.
Another fantastic vid Dan. My average mind is having a hard time comprehending how much your mind is able to hold and where it gets all this information. Care to let us kniw❓ Oh yes❗I think you'll find those spark plugs on a shelf at Microsoft😉 Thanx again for these vidz Dan.
Don't be fooled but I'm average too, I'm just very passionate about technology. And that why I'm spending a lot of time trying to figure out how things work.
To find where sparks are made in the tesla you have to get at the so-called "battery-pack" in the floor. It's hard to open due to a design floor, you have to work really hard to open it, then you can find some well-secured cylinders all through it. Get on of those and open it, hit it with a chisel and hammer while a friend lubricates it with a fine water mist from a spray bottle. Then you will know whether the one you picked makes the sparks - you can't miss the clue.
Thanks Dan for showing the LIN Bus . The funy thing is that amazing mirror with so much complexity failed because of water intrusion in a cheap connector. The functional complexity is super well designed but the basic quality was left out ... for some reason. It sure takes a smart engineer to troubleshoot how all these inter-networked bus systems fail. The real-deal will be field troubleshooting with 3G connected cars...
It's not the whole mirror that failed. It's this one wiring terminal in a connector on the wiring harness inside this driver mirror assembly as a consequence of likely water input. So, this mirror would not have to be exchanged. Just this wire terminal would have to be fixed and seals checked and likely replaced.
Good old green crusties as Eric O says. Now I have an idea how L.I.N. works. One wire network. Add LIN to High and Med speed C.A.N. I know there's others, and who knows how many more will be added. Thank you for this video.
Little late: Tesla does not have spark-plugs but only plug-sparks: whenever you plug something wrong, it tends to create lots of sparks, and even self ignite on early models.
Man i dont know if you are an instructor or a technician but you sure are a very intelligent person. Love the videos.

You are too much, I love the way you explain the function of a LIN bus
I'm pretty sure the sparkplugs are just above the Piston Retiurn Springs, behind the blinker fluid reservoir.
Your right🤣 I should have read the manual🤣🤣
@@Diagnosedan You have a great channel. Thanks for the educational videos and all the knowledge you share with us.
The spark plugs for the Tesla are in the glove box, everyone knows that...
Now i know!😉👍
@@Diagnosedan i have a Tesla and the exhaust is blowing. Could you fix it for me?
No they are in the frunk next to the headlight fluid.
Don't forget that the oil filler cap is in the trunk as well!
Hey, some people: ruclips.net/video/Ec-LrW1tSHQ/видео.html
The more I watch your videos, them more I realise how little I know, but I also know that I now know more than yesterday 😊
A wonderfully explained video Dan. P.s. You will find the spark plugs next to the exhaust manifold - if you look very hard🤣🤣🤣

spark plugs for Tesla are next to the fuel tank in some early models of the Tesla roadster they are next to the filler neck. Very nice video!
No spark plugs on a Tesla. It runs off of angry pixies.
No spark plugs?😱
You a genious easy explanation for the techs to grasp
Thank you!
