And 43 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 1: sometimes you can get down to that last percentile, but 44 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 1: not in every case. So just just something to think 45 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 1: about and be aware of. Let's let's kick up in 46 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:12,400 Speaker 1: the phones right away. Let's go over to Margine and Iowa, Iowa. 47 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:14,400 Speaker 1: You know there's something going on in Iowa in the 48 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:19,680 Speaker 1: next couple of weeks out in Bettendorf. Are you near Bettendorf, Margine, Not. 49 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:21,119 Speaker 4: At all, that's the other end of the state. 50 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:23,639 Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, there's a there's a big car show going 51 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:26,520 Speaker 1: on that way. Rob Wolf of American Pickers is going 52 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:28,680 Speaker 1: to be out there and they're putting on some kind 53 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 1: of big car show for all you people out in 54 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 1: Iowa and everywhere else. 55 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 4: So but any event, and Ragbry's going on too, yep, yep. 56 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 1: So how can I help you today? 57 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,480 Speaker 4: Okay, this is a follow up June twenty second, I 58 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 4: called you on an O five uhicle saver that was 59 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,639 Speaker 4: dying on me going down the road, and you had 60 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 4: suggested my mechanics who couldn't find a code And I'm 61 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:57,240 Speaker 4: talking two different mechanics and any theft system and a 62 00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 4: tilt wheel flexing wire to see if it's freight break broke, 63 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:03,080 Speaker 4: and it might be the cause. They laughed at me 64 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 4: when I suggested those things. They list and they suggested 65 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:14,160 Speaker 4: other things, but it's all a guessing game. So they 66 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 4: they taped over it every day for like two weeks. 67 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:19,920 Speaker 4: It didn't do a thing. The next day after I 68 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 4: got it home, a died only going on the road. Again, Well, 69 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 4: I'm going to be on the interstate or the highway 70 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 4: sometime going sixty miles an hour instead of thirty. And 71 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 4: I was afraid of what might happen, of course. 72 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 1: And so I. 73 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:36,600 Speaker 4: Got stalled somewhere, and then it got to the point 74 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 4: where it wouldn't start at all. It tried to start, 75 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 4: but it wouldn't stay started, so it had to be 76 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 4: towed from where I was. Only the neighbor ended up 77 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 4: helping me, and he caught a code. He had one 78 00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 4: of those code finders. He caught a code P one 79 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 4: oh one, which is a mass airflow sensor. So I 80 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 4: went to one of those mechanics and ordered one, got 81 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 4: it right away and he put it in and that's 82 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 4: solved my problem. 83 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 1: Excellent so far, at least excellent. 84 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 4: So you wanted me to do a follow up and 85 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 4: what I found, and that's. 86 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 1: What I found, Well, I appreciate it, and that's and 87 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 1: then sometimes sometimes it takes that. You know, I'm surprised 88 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 1: your mechanics didn't know about the problems with the flex 89 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:19,640 Speaker 1: column and the and the tilt wheel causing the issues 90 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 1: because we would see the older cars. 91 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 4: It couldn't be possible that buick of how it was made. 92 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,599 Speaker 1: I've seen it on that buick, so they must make 93 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 1: them different in Iowa. 94 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 4: I don't know. 95 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 1: Yep, but good. I'm glad it's solved for you. Margine. Congratulations. 96 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, well so far that's worked. 97 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:42,800 Speaker 1: Yep. So well we'll see right, listen. 98 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:46,839 Speaker 4: Long distance then and. 99 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,800 Speaker 1: Look if it doesn't, you know where to find me, 100 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 1: all right, you know, so, and then we'll h you know, 101 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:51,120 Speaker 1: if we have to do a deeper dive, we can 102 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 1: always do. You do a deeper dive. Thank you, you great, 103 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:57,159 Speaker 1: You have a great day. You know. Listen. Sometimes it's 104 00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:00,719 Speaker 1: it's about community. Sometimes it's about knowledge. Sometime it's about 105 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,240 Speaker 1: it's changing information. One of the one of the neat 106 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 1: things that All Data has done in recent weeks is 107 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:10,480 Speaker 1: they have their they have repair community built within their 108 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 1: repair software. So that in the case of Margine from 109 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,920 Speaker 1: Iowa with her five buick, if her mechanics, we're using 110 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:20,479 Speaker 1: all data, they might see mentioned. They could go in 111 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 1: they could you know, do their research or come up 112 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:24,720 Speaker 1: with a code, or they might see a list. They 113 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:27,720 Speaker 1: might see a list for that vehicle of common malaise, 114 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:31,359 Speaker 1: common problems and it would. All data now has the 115 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 1: ability where it will walk you through and show you, hey, 116 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:36,279 Speaker 1: you know, this is what this fixed it, this is 117 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:38,720 Speaker 1: how that fixed it, and so on. So, uh, you know, 118 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 1: information in community is becoming very common now. It's become 119 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:45,919 Speaker 1: an essential part of auto repair that it. You know 120 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,159 Speaker 1: that it has to be there, right, we have to 121 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:51,160 Speaker 1: we have to consider the options of you know, what 122 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:53,280 Speaker 1: if and you know, could somebody else have that problem? 123 00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 1: Because we're here to share information. So kudos to all data. 124 00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:00,960 Speaker 1: Steve's writing and from Virginia. Hey, Ron, you're asking about DMVs. 125 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 1: I remember this. So Steve's lived all over the place. 126 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:05,800 Speaker 1: Let's see in Virginia, he said, each county has a 127 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 1: DMV branch. A key is to go to a rural 128 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 1: county because the branch there might not be as busy. 129 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:13,559 Speaker 1: So Virginia sounds like is sort of like New Jersey 130 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 1: and that you go where there's the least amount of 131 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:17,280 Speaker 1: people in a sense in order to get some kind 132 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 1: of service. The state of New Jersey state of confusion. 133 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:24,279 Speaker 1: Same thing California. No inspections were required for out of 134 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 1: state vehicles being registered. The state headquarters in DMV were local. 135 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:29,600 Speaker 1: This is nineteen eighty when he lived there was an 136 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 1: enormous hassle busy how to retake the motorcycle Operators test 137 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:35,839 Speaker 1: and registering. Something should have told me something about life there. 138 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:39,680 Speaker 1: Steve always gives those unique twists from his perspective of 139 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:43,799 Speaker 1: where he's lived around the country. Michigan DMV is plus 140 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 1: private registration offices. That's new. I've never heard of that, 141 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:48,840 Speaker 1: and they do everything they can to be helpful. That's 142 00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:52,360 Speaker 1: Michigan most accommodating DMVs of any place I've ever lived. 143 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 1: Plus you could drive as fast as you want without 144 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 1: ever getting a ticket. Had to slope down for Ohio 145 00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:58,520 Speaker 1: during the fifty five miles an hour days, but actually 146 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 1: got off with a warning there from state police. And 147 00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:05,159 Speaker 1: Virginia he goes back to say, I drive ten over 148 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 1: the speed limits in town. Cops are busy now with 149 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 1: real crime city of Roanoke, but not the county as 150 00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 1: one of the most violent in the states. Stay out 151 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 1: of downtown at night even with a pistol. Virginia is 152 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 1: shell issue concealed concealed carry. Steve always gives me documentary, 153 00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 1: but it's kind of nice, well not nice, but it's 154 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:24,520 Speaker 1: kind of interesting to see that everybody's got problems with 155 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 1: their DMV agencies no matter where they are, and you know, 156 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 1: I think DMVs I just don't understand why in this 157 00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 1: day and age it has to be so confusing, and 158 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 1: you know some of the things that go on there 159 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 1: as well. You know we were talking about community before, 160 00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 1: right and you know the information that's out there and 161 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 1: available in terms of sharing and talking to each other. 162 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 1: Mitchell the folks over at Mitchell one have achieved that 163 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:53,040 Speaker 1: as well. Out of their sure Track Community Fixed this 164 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:55,880 Speaker 1: month they talk about a twenty sixteen toy At a Highlander. 165 00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 1: And I tell you this because perhaps your state, like 166 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 1: most states, I think only New Jersey and Oregon are 167 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 1: states where you know, you're not allowed to fill your 168 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:06,880 Speaker 1: own gas tank. So a lot of you are filling 169 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:10,119 Speaker 1: your own gas tank. And the sure Track Community Fixed 170 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 1: this month talked about a twenty sixteen Toyot a Highlander 171 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 1: and the complaint was the vehicle would stall after a 172 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 1: fuel fill up. The repair shop had put an EVAPP 173 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 1: canister in purge valve in it, and the customer stated 174 00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 1: only after filling the tank with the problem happened. They 175 00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 1: went through and it took the mechanic going home or 176 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 1: going to get gas with the customer watching how they 177 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 1: put gas in and seeing what they did and experiencing 178 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:34,040 Speaker 1: the problem. And they came to the conclusion that because 179 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 1: the customer on occasion would click click, click, click click, 180 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 1: you know, try to get that last little bit of 181 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 1: fuel into the tank, that it was slowly overfilling and 182 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:47,559 Speaker 1: coming out and reaching the canister was so saturated. The 183 00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 1: truck call canister was so saturated it would get up 184 00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 1: into the purge valve and cause the engine to stall. 185 00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:55,960 Speaker 1: So just makes the argument when you are filling your 186 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 1: gas tank, first click, maybe second, no more than that, 187 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 1: allow room for expansion and don't overfill the tank because 188 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:04,559 Speaker 1: when you overfill the tank, you could be actually hurting 189 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 1: something and not really doing your engine a whole lot 190 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:09,040 Speaker 1: of good, much less than you e mission control. So 191 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 1: and that's the sure Track community fix from Mitchell Mitchell 192 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 1: one dot com this month. So just good stuff. Just 193 00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 1: the idea of community. It's there and they do a 194 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:21,640 Speaker 1: heck of a job providing information out to the trades. 195 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:23,840 Speaker 1: Let's pull over to take a pause. I'm running any 196 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:25,559 Speaker 1: in the car doctor here at eight five five, five 197 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 1: six zero nine nine zero zero. We're back right after this. 198 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:28,839 Speaker 1: Don't go away. 199 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 2: The little gto. 200 00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:46,079 Speaker 1: Need advice on how to maintain that classic gt O. 201 00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:49,200 Speaker 1: Ron is the guy eight five five five six zero 202 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:53,679 Speaker 1: nine nine zero zero. Here's Ron. Let's uh, let's go 203 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:56,040 Speaker 1: to a chef steak with Brian and dam in Philadelphia. Away. 204 00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 1: We always talk about this. One day, Tom and I 205 00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:00,679 Speaker 1: are going seventeen Ford Fusion and welcome to the car 206 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 1: doctor Shore once again. How can I help you today? 207 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:05,319 Speaker 3: Hey, Ron, always a pleasure. 208 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:06,920 Speaker 1: Real quick. 209 00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:09,880 Speaker 3: Actually are again no longer has a full service gas. 210 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 3: They went to self service recently. Jersey, you know, Jersey 211 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 3: is the last one ar again. But the thing was, 212 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 3: whenever I was in Oregon, I always got gas in 213 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 3: Washington stay because it was a lot less. 214 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:24,080 Speaker 1: New Jerseys the state of confusion. Brother, But I think 215 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 1: we can all say that about our states now. But 216 00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 1: that's all. That's another story. Yep. 217 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 3: It costs less than PA. So I get gas in 218 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:35,520 Speaker 3: Jerseys so when I'm there. So here's the thing. There's 219 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:40,480 Speaker 3: about headlights. There's products to advertising TV about you put 220 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 3: them on your headlights, They're brighter and all that stuff. 221 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 3: I'm very skeptical of all these products. I see on 222 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:50,440 Speaker 3: TV my my headlights don't seem to be as bright 223 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 3: as they used to. Is there any recommendation as far 224 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 3: as either like a cleaner or maybe a replacement of 225 00:10:58,600 --> 00:10:59,840 Speaker 3: bulbs or lamps. 226 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,320 Speaker 1: I think it's a combination of things, Brian, and I 227 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:05,280 Speaker 1: think everybody's case is going to be a different solution, 228 00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 1: all right, because it's based on the condition of the car. 229 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:11,960 Speaker 1: So I just went through this, well, I went not just, 230 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:13,640 Speaker 1: but I went through this within the last year on 231 00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:15,960 Speaker 1: the four suburban that you guys know I've had since 232 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 1: O four. Now it's got replacement headlamps in it, which 233 00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 1: I purchased brand new from General Motors about three years ago, 234 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:26,880 Speaker 1: I think it was. And I went with GM units, 235 00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,679 Speaker 1: original equipment units because A they were still available and 236 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:33,600 Speaker 1: B I've been down this road of using aftermarket headlamps 237 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 1: and I've never found any that were really satisfactory. The 238 00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 1: way they refract or bend the light, or guide the 239 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 1: light or direct the light is terrible in comparison to 240 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:45,080 Speaker 1: the original part. So you know you're buying a cheap headlamp. 241 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 1: You get a cheap headlamp. You want to buy something 242 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:49,319 Speaker 1: of quality. We're changing this so we can see where 243 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:53,840 Speaker 1: we're going. Let's use something of quality, right, So that's 244 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:56,079 Speaker 1: number one. So what kind of shape are the headlamps in? 245 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,719 Speaker 1: If the headlamps themselves need to be cleaned, can they 246 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,560 Speaker 1: be right? We always go through that. If you see 247 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:06,079 Speaker 1: moisture on the inside of the headlamp, then there is 248 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 1: a there is a seal that's broken down, there's a 249 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:12,960 Speaker 1: leak that can't be you know, repaired by cleaning the 250 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 1: outside of the lenses. Then it needs a lens. It's 251 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:17,600 Speaker 1: going to need a housing all right, where the whole 252 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:20,559 Speaker 1: housing has to be replaced. So if we're talking about 253 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:23,840 Speaker 1: a vehicle that's just got yellowed lamps or discolored lamps, 254 00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 1: but it's dry on the inside, now we can clean 255 00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 1: them all right. I've road tested a bunch of different 256 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 1: headlamp products, a probably too long of a list to 257 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 1: even mention here. I did try the one I think 258 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 1: you're talking about with ceramic coating that you see on 259 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:42,080 Speaker 1: TV or on Facebook a pups up in your social media. Eah, 260 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 1: I wasn't completely impressed. I thought it was a shortcut 261 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 1: that didn't really give true results. The one kit that 262 00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 1: we always come back to in the shop that we 263 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:56,600 Speaker 1: still like and still use on a regular basis. Comes 264 00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:59,680 Speaker 1: from three M. All right, three AM in their headlight 265 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 1: kit really work well. We've had now there's a little 266 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:05,719 Speaker 1: bit of elbow grease involved here, all right, you know, 267 00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 1: we use it. We use a power drill all right 268 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:10,880 Speaker 1: for our buffing and sanding operation. But we will actually 269 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 1: clean away the old crud. We will, you know, follow 270 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:17,320 Speaker 1: the steps, you know, of course, a medium and then 271 00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:21,080 Speaker 1: a fine grit. We will also when we're done, wax 272 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:24,360 Speaker 1: the headlights, all right, and they tell you to do that, 273 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:26,400 Speaker 1: but we continue to wax the headlights. We will wax 274 00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 1: headlights on a semi regular basis. It's part of a 275 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:31,520 Speaker 1: service at the shop, you know, because they're trying to 276 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:36,400 Speaker 1: keep that that that polish going, you know. But yeah, 277 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:38,960 Speaker 1: that's the three M kits. And there's there's two or three. 278 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:41,120 Speaker 1: You'll find them out on Amazon, and they work well. 279 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 3: Headlights these are these are original. I've replaced. These are 280 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:49,559 Speaker 3: the original everything headlights lamps. There's nothing these are factory. 281 00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 1: Are they clean? Are they clean? Or they beat up? Well? 282 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:57,920 Speaker 3: You know, there's they look fine, no moisture, it's just 283 00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:00,480 Speaker 3: and I you know, I wash them and I use 284 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 3: you know. 285 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 1: If they're if they're if they're clean in there, they're 286 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:07,520 Speaker 1: they're in good shape and they don't need to be cleaned. 287 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 1: Great if they do. Three M is the way to go. 288 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 1: Let's talk about bulbs. Are they what kind of bulbs 289 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:16,319 Speaker 1: are in there? H I d l ED traditional you know, 290 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:17,440 Speaker 1: bulbs themselves. 291 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:20,080 Speaker 3: You know, I'm not sure it's factor whatever. I have 292 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 3: to look it up because it's factory your original factory stuff. 293 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 1: You know, because I've I've been down this road and 294 00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:28,960 Speaker 1: I've I've done the I've done the brighter bulbs. If 295 00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 1: you go look at Peak all right. Peak is not 296 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:36,000 Speaker 1: just for coolant, but they also make a line of 297 00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 1: headlight bulbs, all right, and their PEAK their gold version, 298 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:44,760 Speaker 1: I think there is a gold version. Bulb works really well. Also, 299 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:48,240 Speaker 1: if they make an LED application for that vehicle and 300 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:50,480 Speaker 1: you know it'll fit the housing, I would make that 301 00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:55,520 Speaker 1: conversion because the l ED works really well. Also, I 302 00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:59,120 Speaker 1: ended up putting some LED bulbs in the suburban and 303 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 1: now I've got clear lamps a good bulb and I can, 304 00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:05,280 Speaker 1: matter of fact, I annoy people that's how bright the 305 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:06,920 Speaker 1: lights are. And I didn't do it for that purpose, 306 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:09,480 Speaker 1: but I very rarely turn on my high beams now 307 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 1: because now I have LEDs where you know, this whole 308 00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:15,480 Speaker 1: headlight thing is it's a it's a battle right out 309 00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 1: on the road who's got who's got the brightest lights. 310 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 1: But I just want a light that gives me parody 311 00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 1: with a newer vehicle because they show up and their 312 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:27,120 Speaker 1: LED washes out my bulb. If it's not an LED, 313 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:29,160 Speaker 1: you know, I'm just looking for a quality. It's it's 314 00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 1: like the ever escalating headlight wars. So you know you 315 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:34,280 Speaker 1: can look at that as well. 316 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:39,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it's like I said, everything's original because 317 00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 3: I'm rotating. My father can't drive temporarily, so I'm using 318 00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:46,400 Speaker 3: his car too. He has a twenty three Hyundai a Launcher, 319 00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:49,960 Speaker 3: and his lights look twenty times brighter. Right, maybe not 320 00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:51,760 Speaker 3: twenty times brighter, but I can I can see a 321 00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:52,760 Speaker 3: significant different. 322 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 1: Well yeah, and that's because you know, that's that is 323 00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 1: because of the of the you know, types of you know, 324 00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:02,160 Speaker 1: things have changed, you know, and that's how that's again 325 00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 1: we're back to, you know, how things have changed and uh, 326 00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 1: you know what's going on there, you know, But you can, 327 00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:11,120 Speaker 1: if you matter of fact, if you want, if you 328 00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:15,280 Speaker 1: go out to OWI dot com, which is the website 329 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:18,160 Speaker 1: for Peak.

I used to be 344 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:02,000 Speaker 1: a satellite radio guy. Used to like satellite radio, and 345 00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:08,200 Speaker 1: then I discovered Spotify and Amazon and Android Auto. Now I 346 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:10,200 Speaker 1: don't Now, I don't get what the fuss about satellite 347 00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:12,680 Speaker 1: radio is anymore because I can program my own songs 348 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:17,360 Speaker 1: and I can drive around listening to me on podcast 349 00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:19,240 Speaker 1: if I want my own vehicle to see how smart. 350 00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:21,800 Speaker 3: I was, well, know what it is. You got the 351 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:23,960 Speaker 3: promotional rate and you found a way to keep getting it. 352 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:27,080 Speaker 3: And he always, he always cancels whenever the promotion's over, 353 00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:29,800 Speaker 3: and they keep renewing at the same price. Doing something right. 354 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 1: He's doing something right, and I'll tell you what that works. 355 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:34,080 Speaker 1: The only problem is you have to call up and 356 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:36,639 Speaker 1: talk to satellite radio. You got to talk to serious 357 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:39,440 Speaker 1: customer service. I'd rather bang my head against the wall. 358 00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:42,560 Speaker 3: You know, like my father as always as a long 359 00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:44,960 Speaker 3: as he can understand them, because sometimes he has problems 360 00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:48,439 Speaker 3: with call centers overseas. So yeah, it's always you know, 361 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:50,960 Speaker 3: between his hearing and the accents. But hey, look he 362 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:52,080 Speaker 3: has the patience to do it. 363 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 1: So yeah, you know what, he sounds like my kind 364 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:55,880 Speaker 1: of guy.

Let's see, this 385 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 1: comes to us from Paul Walker. Before I go do that, Hey, Ron, 386 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:28,119 Speaker 1: I quote your comments about winter weather and talking to 387 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:30,960 Speaker 1: someone in Bellgraine, Maine on last weekend's show. This is 388 00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:33,399 Speaker 1: from two weeks ago. In the reverse here, Paul's up in. 389 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:38,239 Speaker 1: Paul Walker is the self proclaimed Alaska radio nerd. He's 390 00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:43,160 Speaker 1: up there on KSKO eighty nine point five f M McGrath, Alaska. 391 00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:46,280 Speaker 1: We are on the air up there, and Paul tells 392 00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:48,600 Speaker 1: us that you know, we were talking to someone in 393 00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:51,600 Speaker 1: bell Gram, Maine on last weekend's show about winter weather. 394 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:54,760 Speaker 1: He said, here, it's reverse. It's barely over sixty, cloudy 395 00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 1: and drizzily for the past two weeks. In fact, yesterday 396 00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:59,159 Speaker 1: and today, I think we're in the first day we 397 00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:01,359 Speaker 1: hit above sixty. Earlier this week we had forty two 398 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 1: degrees at six am. Well, I wish it was forty 399 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:06,680 Speaker 1: two degrees. I'd like I could go for a forty 400 00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:10,280 Speaker 1: two degree day and just calm, steady, normal weather. Ball. 401 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:13,120 Speaker 1: But we always appreciate your input sir. Then we should 402 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 1: all move to McGrath. Let's all go to Alaska. So 403 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 1: I was meant for Big Sky Country or Kodiak. We 404 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:21,720 Speaker 1: could go up there and hunt hunt Kodiak bear. Tom, 405 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:24,360 Speaker 1: do you hunt Kodiak bear? No, you have to keep 406 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:28,400 Speaker 1: your clothes on, stop it. So, but I do use 407 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:34,160 Speaker 1: Kodiak film. No that by a boom. He's here all week, folks. 408 00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:35,840 Speaker 1: I want to talk to you about the no start. 409 00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 1: You walk out and your car doesn't start, and what 410 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:42,919 Speaker 1: do you do. You know, it's probably one of the 411 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:45,479 Speaker 1: most pit in the stomach kind of feelings you can 412 00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:47,399 Speaker 1: go through, and you want to diagnose it yourself. And 413 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:52,240 Speaker 1: you walk out and you turn the key and nothing happens, 414 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 1: or doesn't it or does it? You've got to look 415 00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:58,320 Speaker 1: at a few things. Turn the key on and try 416 00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 1: doing this when the vehicle is working normal. So if 417 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:03,199 Speaker 1: you know what normal looks like, you'll know what abnormal 418 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 1: looks like. Right, take that moment, get in your vehicle 419 00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:09,639 Speaker 1: and push the button or turn the key, and if 420 00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:11,639 Speaker 1: you're pushing the button, do it without your foot on 421 00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:15,000 Speaker 1: the brake so it doesn't start. And watch what happens. 422 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:18,480 Speaker 1: Look at the dashlights that come on. Understand what the 423 00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:20,880 Speaker 1: dashlights are that come on. We call that bulb check. 424 00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 1: They're cycling bulbs to make sure things light up, so 425 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:27,439 Speaker 1: you can tell of hey, one's not lit. How do 426 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:29,800 Speaker 1: you know the vehicle's overheating if the overheat bulb is 427 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:34,480 Speaker 1: out right? So that being said, all right, you get 428 00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:37,280 Speaker 1: used to what normal looks like. The dashlights come on. 429 00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 1: And then when you cycle the key to crank, when 430 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:43,359 Speaker 1: you push the key or you push the button all 431 00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:45,040 Speaker 1: the way in with your foot on the brake pedal, 432 00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:49,680 Speaker 1: do you hear any noise? Does it go click? Does 433 00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:54,440 Speaker 1: it click multiple times like a machine gun? Sound? All right? 434 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:58,320 Speaker 1: That will tell you different things. Turn the headlights on, 435 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:02,040 Speaker 1: all right, Ryan, watch the headlights. If it's nighttime, it's 436 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:04,200 Speaker 1: easy to see. If it's not, somebody else can look 437 00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:08,000 Speaker 1: at them. Do the headlights go dim or dimmer as 438 00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:11,600 Speaker 1: you're trying to start it? If they go dimm or dimmer, 439 00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:15,320 Speaker 1: that tells us that the starter motor is trying to 440 00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:18,360 Speaker 1: engage but it can't for some reason, an internal failure. 441 00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 1: Perhaps maybe the engine seiesed. I mean, I don't think so, 442 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 1: but hey, anything's possible. If the headlights don't change, that 443 00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:29,000 Speaker 1: means the starter's not doing anything. Why isn't it doing anything? 444 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:31,120 Speaker 1: Is it again, it could still be a starter. Does 445 00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:33,960 Speaker 1: the starter have a good connection at the solenoid? Is 446 00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:37,600 Speaker 1: it making all proper connections? So you can tell that 447 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,760 Speaker 1: now if you want to get into this deeper, break 448 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 1: out your scan tool. You know, it's funny what you 449 00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:46,200 Speaker 1: can do with a scan tool. You don't necessarily think 450 00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:49,920 Speaker 1: of using a scan tool diagnostic scan tool as part 451 00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 1: of a no crank diagnosis, but vehicles as far back 452 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:56,640 Speaker 1: as twenty five years ago, if you go in under 453 00:22:56,760 --> 00:23:01,400 Speaker 1: your make model, meaning that skin tools today are OBD 454 00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:05,400 Speaker 1: two on Board Diagnostics Level two Federal emission controls where 455 00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:09,920 Speaker 1: they're looking at emissions related information. And then there's year, 456 00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:13,280 Speaker 1: make model O seven, Toyota Ta Coma, and you can 457 00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:16,280 Speaker 1: go in and look and if is there a pit, 458 00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:18,840 Speaker 1: is there a piece of information in there that will 459 00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:22,800 Speaker 1: show you position of the transmission if it's an automatic, 460 00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:27,399 Speaker 1: or does the clutch switch show closed if you step 461 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 1: on the clutch, and you'll see that in your scan tool. 462 00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:35,120 Speaker 1: Sometimes you know when you've got nothing else better though, 463 00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:38,040 Speaker 1: and you know you want to learn about your car, 464 00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:39,920 Speaker 1: learn about your car when it's when it's when it's 465 00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:42,760 Speaker 1: not broken. Take your scan tool and hook it up 466 00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:45,359 Speaker 1: to the car and just start scrolling through the information. 467 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 1: Some of it won't make any sense. Some of the 468 00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:52,520 Speaker 1: way they abbreviate things is very confusing. I would suggest 469 00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:55,640 Speaker 1: you start with OBD two because ob D two language 470 00:23:55,640 --> 00:24:02,000 Speaker 1: is very consistent and easy to understand. Where manufacturers Chrysler 471 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 1: Colls fuel trim one thing, Ford Coles fuel trim another, 472 00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:08,200 Speaker 1: and GM calls it yet a third a different way also, 473 00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 1: and you will find that you know you are looking 474 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 1: for certain things like find cool in temperature in a 475 00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:18,960 Speaker 1: Ford product. Certain Ford products don't use cool in temperature sensors. 476 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 1: They use cylinder head temperature HT and that will confuse you. 477 00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:25,600 Speaker 1: And my point becomes get familiar with your scan tool. 478 00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:30,760 Speaker 1: If you can find the shift indicator section of your 479 00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:33,640 Speaker 1: scan tool or or show you information, it will show you, Hey, 480 00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:36,639 Speaker 1: the vehicle does register as being park. It does show reverse, neutral, 481 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:39,880 Speaker 1: drive and so on. And look to see what does 482 00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 1: it see If it sees neutral, if it sees park, 483 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:46,000 Speaker 1: it's not the switch. It's not input to the PCM. 484 00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:48,280 Speaker 1: Now we've got to go and look at look at 485 00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:50,879 Speaker 1: a wiring diagram. Yeah, it probably is a starter, but 486 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:52,840 Speaker 1: at least it gives you an indication. By the way, 487 00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:56,600 Speaker 1: if you hook up your scan tool, most scan tools 488 00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 1: will also a matter of fact, right up on the screen. 489 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:01,280 Speaker 1: Because voltage has gotten to be so specific, most scan 490 00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:05,360 Speaker 1: tools will show you standing voltage of the battery while 491 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:08,960 Speaker 1: you're sitting there connected. So, while you're sitting there connected, 492 00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:12,560 Speaker 1: keon cars not running, manually turn the headlights on if 493 00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:15,320 Speaker 1: they're not on. Does the voltage go down? Does it 494 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:18,920 Speaker 1: go down by a lot? Does it show a drop? All? Right? 495 00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:22,880 Speaker 1: You can see general state of charge and what sort 496 00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:25,399 Speaker 1: of level of charges in the battery by looking at 497 00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,480 Speaker 1: some very basic things on a scan tool like that. 498 00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:31,119 Speaker 1: So just just some quick tips, just some things that 499 00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:33,920 Speaker 1: you know might get you out of trouble. Try cycling 500 00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:35,800 Speaker 1: the shifter, of course, but I'm trying to get you 501 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:37,639 Speaker 1: to think beyond the I want to crawl into the 502 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:40,159 Speaker 1: truck and hit it with a hammer routine. Yeah, I 503 00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 1: know it goes a long way towards fixing it in 504 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:46,280 Speaker 1: a lot of cases it does. But cars are a 505 00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:48,720 Speaker 1: lot more complicated than that these days, and I want 506 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:51,000 Speaker 1: to get you away from that. So just food for 507 00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:53,119 Speaker 1: thought on how to get a car started or what 508 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:55,640 Speaker 1: to do if and when it fails, so that you're prepared. 509 00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:58,360 Speaker 1: Eight five five five six oho nine nine zero zero. 510 00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 1: I'm running any of the car Doctor. I'll be back 511 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:18,640 Speaker 1: right after this. Hey hey, hey, welcome back running nading 512 00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:20,560 Speaker 1: the car doctor. Thanks for stipping working me this hour. 513 00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:23,800 Speaker 1: And this is the email that generated that conversation about 514 00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:26,080 Speaker 1: no starts, and I should have mentioned that first, but 515 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:28,479 Speaker 1: what the heck, I'll mention it now, Alithia wrote in 516 00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 1: she says, Ron, I'm the owner of a twenty fourteen 517 00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:34,920 Speaker 1: Toyota Camry. December of twenty three, the battery was replaced 518 00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:37,679 Speaker 1: and seven to ten days later, it would not start. 519 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:41,200 Speaker 1: I took it to Triple A. They had it approximately 520 00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:43,480 Speaker 1: five days. I guess there's a Triple A oder repair 521 00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 1: wherever she lives, and it started for them. Every time 522 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:48,400 Speaker 1: I get it home, it will not start. It's towed 523 00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:50,720 Speaker 1: to Toyota and it starts for them every time they try. 524 00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:52,880 Speaker 1: I paid the bill in a couple of days later, 525 00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:55,520 Speaker 1: towed it to my home. Once again, it will not start. 526 00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:59,399 Speaker 1: Let's cut to the chase. Okay, a college staff member 527 00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:02,080 Speaker 1: has the car towed to his home ultimately to his 528 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:05,440 Speaker 1: college campus. He calls and asks if I have another 529 00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:07,679 Speaker 1: k I guess he was working on it. Well, the 530 00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:09,760 Speaker 1: rest is history. The key I took him solve the problem. 531 00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:11,239 Speaker 1: Here's the question, how soon do you know the key 532 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:14,480 Speaker 1: has failed? And I've been I had been asked if 533 00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:16,360 Speaker 1: all the lights came out when the key has inserted 534 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:18,920 Speaker 1: and turned. My point is this is the key being 535 00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:21,280 Speaker 1: treated as a key or a more important part of 536 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:24,720 Speaker 1: the trouble algorithm A Lithia and she guse me your email, 537 00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:29,000 Speaker 1: Violet Pink. Here's the deal, all right, and we have 538 00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:31,119 Speaker 1: to talk about keys too. For a no start, we 539 00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:34,440 Speaker 1: also have to talk about keys and anti theft systems, 540 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:37,720 Speaker 1: not just for no start, no crank conditions, but also 541 00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:41,040 Speaker 1: for vehicles that die on the road. Anti theft systems 542 00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 1: have flourished in the last twenty years, all right, and 543 00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:48,080 Speaker 1: they've gotten more complicated as time has gone on. And 544 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 1: the sad part is on the older vehicles where certain 545 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:55,680 Speaker 1: modules and components are no longer available. I've seen vehicle 546 00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:59,040 Speaker 1: scrapped because we can't get the anti theft part to 547 00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:00,960 Speaker 1: allow it to run and be liable, which is kind 548 00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 1: of ironic when you think the very thing that's supposed 549 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:05,960 Speaker 1: to keep them on the road in our possession so 550 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:08,320 Speaker 1: we can use the car is the reason we had 551 00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:11,320 Speaker 1: to scrap it. So it's said the key is an 552 00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:15,320 Speaker 1: integral part of the anti theft system on cars, all right. 553 00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 1: It provides that that plug in is the digital signature 554 00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:23,119 Speaker 1: that tells the onboard computer, Hey, I'm here. I'm a 555 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:25,840 Speaker 1: Lithius key, and I'm ready to start the camera and 556 00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:28,120 Speaker 1: I'm here to do what I'm supposed to do and 557 00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:31,480 Speaker 1: get the car to run. Once it sees that digital signal, 558 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:35,840 Speaker 1: it will then allow the circuitry to engage the start 559 00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:39,200 Speaker 1: or activate fuel injectors and do some different things on 560 00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:42,280 Speaker 1: different car lines to allow the vehicle to run and operate. 561 00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:46,920 Speaker 1: When would you know, Well, you don't, although you do, 562 00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:51,120 Speaker 1: because here's that conversation about dashboard warning lights. Again, go 563 00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:54,080 Speaker 1: out and start the car. I believe on Toyota you're 564 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:56,560 Speaker 1: going to see a green light most vehicles is a 565 00:28:56,600 --> 00:29:01,560 Speaker 1: green light. Green means go right and unless if you're texting, 566 00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:04,120 Speaker 1: that's a different story. But you turn the key to 567 00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:07,080 Speaker 1: the on position and there will be an anti theft 568 00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 1: light of some shape or size that lights up on 569 00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:15,160 Speaker 1: the dashboard if it is a marginal key. I believe 570 00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:18,080 Speaker 1: certain your Nissans, for example, go from green to yellow 571 00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:21,120 Speaker 1: to red, sort of like the stop light. Right the 572 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:25,680 Speaker 1: red is stop. Yellow is you know, caution. But they 573 00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 1: will you know, turn slight colors to show you that 574 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:32,280 Speaker 1: anti theft that could be involved. Toyotas do do also. 575 00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:35,160 Speaker 1: I believe. I believe you'll see a green light and 576 00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:37,880 Speaker 1: then it will go red if it's not seeing a 577 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:41,760 Speaker 1: key request and you know you're trying to crank it 578 00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:44,200 Speaker 1: during so and it will say, hey, where's the key. 579 00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:48,160 Speaker 1: So the rule becomes and this is why you need 580 00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:51,120 Speaker 1: at least two keys with every modern car. Try a 581 00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:53,520 Speaker 1: different key. See, if the problem goes away, you may 582 00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:57,120 Speaker 1: save yourself a trip to the repair shop. The bigger 583 00:29:57,200 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 1: problem becomes that you ask some for a repair key. 584 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:02,880 Speaker 1: How many of you out there know where all your 585 00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:07,080 Speaker 1: spare keys are? And yeah, that that that gets to 586 00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:10,920 Speaker 1: be an issue. And the funny thing is what keys cost. 587 00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:14,120 Speaker 1: Not funny haha, but funny said. You know, I don't 588 00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:16,320 Speaker 1: think there's a key out there now for a vehicle 589 00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:18,560 Speaker 1: with anti theft that's under one hundred and fifty bucks. 590 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:22,360 Speaker 1: I'm seeing certain cars require keys that are three four, 591 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:26,680 Speaker 1: five hundred dollars and it sort of makes you stop 592 00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:28,240 Speaker 1: and think about that. You want to put a spare 593 00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:31,080 Speaker 1: key in your pocket, and you know, why would you 594 00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:35,120 Speaker 1: want to so? But yeah, the key becomes an integral 595 00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:38,400 Speaker 1: part of the system. If it doesn't see the right 596 00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:42,520 Speaker 1: digital signal out of that key, then the handshake is off. 597 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,480 Speaker 1: The computer network doesn't recognize that you're trying to start 598 00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 1: the vehicle you own, and it will, by some means 599 00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:51,280 Speaker 1: either disabled the starter or the fuel injectors or both 600 00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:54,880 Speaker 1: and prevent that vehicle from being stolen, which is when 601 00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:56,680 Speaker 1: the guy backs the flatbat up and just takes the 602 00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:59,720 Speaker 1: whole car and doesn't care so so much for anti 603 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:02,800 Speaker 1: theft systems. I know of no vehicle that was ever 604 00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:05,640 Speaker 1: saved because the anti theft system defeated the guy because 605 00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:08,160 Speaker 1: you know, trust me, if they want the vehicle, they're 606 00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:10,800 Speaker 1: gonna get it one way or another. Anyway A five 607 00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:13,560 Speaker 1: five five six oh nine nine zero zero, you know, 608 00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:15,400 Speaker 1: real quick. So we've got a convertible in the family, 609 00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 1: and I'll tell it to you this way. We've got 610 00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:19,720 Speaker 1: a convertible in the family, and my wife is all 611 00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:22,960 Speaker 1: concerned now about convertible and will it get stolen in security, 612 00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:25,120 Speaker 1: and I'm like, yeah, it's got an anti theft system. 613 00:31:25,120 --> 00:31:26,720 Speaker 1: And if that doesn't stop them, they're gonna take the 614 00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:28,479 Speaker 1: carpet on a flat bed and it's gone. So what 615 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:30,880 Speaker 1: difference does it make. It's it's it's the way of 616 00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:34,120 Speaker 1: the world that I anyway A five five five six 617 00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,800 Speaker 1: oh nine nine zero zero running eating the car. Doctor. 618 00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:54,200 Speaker 1: I'll be back right after this, hey, and we're back 619 00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:56,200 Speaker 1: to kind of wrap it up this hour. Yeah, And 620 00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:58,160 Speaker 1: as Tom points out, it used to be simple to 621 00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:00,760 Speaker 1: start a car. Just get a manual, right you could, 622 00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:03,480 Speaker 1: you know? I always I often think and I still 623 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:04,920 Speaker 1: got kind of ribbed a little bit at the gym. 624 00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:07,320 Speaker 1: They see me cause you know, I guess it's kind 625 00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:08,720 Speaker 1: of funny to see me pull in, right, because you 626 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:10,320 Speaker 1: don't know what vehicle I'm bringing that there. I think 627 00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:12,000 Speaker 1: there's six or seven in the fleet. I've kind of 628 00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:14,640 Speaker 1: lost count, and they'll see me drive in. I'm still 629 00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:16,800 Speaker 1: my One of my favorites is the ninety seven Ranger 630 00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:19,320 Speaker 1: with the manual trans and they'll be like, wow, what 631 00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:20,960 Speaker 1: are you driving that for? You could be driving this 632 00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:22,960 Speaker 1: or that or this or that, and I'm like, you know, hey, listen, 633 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:24,920 Speaker 1: if the workout doesn't get me, I'm going to push 634 00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 1: started in the parking lot and just dump the clutch 635 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:28,360 Speaker 1: and right, because that's what you could do with a 636 00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:32,200 Speaker 1: manual transmission vehicle. Right. You can't do that anymore, which, 637 00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 1: by the way, I think there's still one manual transmission 638 00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:36,520 Speaker 1: vehicle out there. I read this article the other week 639 00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:41,040 Speaker 1: that talked about it where that was available. Tom. I 640 00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:43,360 Speaker 1: did that with a car I had that was two 641 00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:43,920 Speaker 1: weeks old. 642 00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:47,760 Speaker 5: It didn't want to start, so I was parked in 643 00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:50,600 Speaker 5: the private section of a parking garage because I've I 644 00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:52,400 Speaker 5: was working hockey games and I got the head of 645 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:54,320 Speaker 5: security and we pushed it and dumped the clutch and 646 00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:55,440 Speaker 5: started it and I took it home. 647 00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:57,720 Speaker 1: Yeah great, And you know what that was. That was 648 00:32:57,760 --> 00:32:59,840 Speaker 1: a whole other generation. You know, that's like the story 649 00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:02,520 Speaker 1: about Uncle Steve when he was learning the pilot before 650 00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:04,600 Speaker 1: he went overseas and he had a pass. He had 651 00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:06,840 Speaker 1: a pass solo, and he showed up late and the 652 00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:09,240 Speaker 1: plane wasn't running any had to hand crank the plane 653 00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:11,080 Speaker 1: and jumping into as was rolling down the runway. And 654 00:33:11,800 --> 00:33:13,760 Speaker 1: I still always think about him, or chasing the plane 655 00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:15,640 Speaker 1: down the runway, climbing in at the last minute and 656 00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:18,720 Speaker 1: getting airborne. So that was Uncle Steve. God love him, 657 00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:20,840 Speaker 1: God Rest in peace. I oh take you in the 658 00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:24,240 Speaker 1: shop real quick. Two thousand and five, Honda Civic showed 659 00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:26,560 Speaker 1: up this week at the shop. And you know it's 660 00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:29,800 Speaker 1: sometimes it's expected unexpected. It was an oil change, it 661 00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:32,080 Speaker 1: was a service. It was looking over the car was 662 00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:34,120 Speaker 1: home for college for the summer, and there was a 663 00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:38,320 Speaker 1: complaint about a fluttering noise, mostly on left turns, but 664 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:41,000 Speaker 1: sometimes on straight you know, going straight ahead, and we 665 00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:43,960 Speaker 1: were looking at the vehicle, looking it over, and we 666 00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:45,880 Speaker 1: came to the conclusion that the noise that we were 667 00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:48,800 Speaker 1: able to duplicate was one of two things or both. 668 00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:53,400 Speaker 1: One was the exhaust heat shield that, under the right conditions, 669 00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:56,840 Speaker 1: depending upon how far the body would roll, you would 670 00:33:56,840 --> 00:34:01,200 Speaker 1: get this resonance or shutter of the exhaust heat shield 671 00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:04,520 Speaker 1: for the one forward catalytic converter. So we strapped that 672 00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:06,240 Speaker 1: back on and we got that to the point where 673 00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:09,160 Speaker 1: it wouldn't shut her anymore, and we still sort of 674 00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:11,160 Speaker 1: had the noise, but it was different now, but it 675 00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:15,400 Speaker 1: was there. And then we realized the left front strut 676 00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:19,680 Speaker 1: was blown. It had failed. It was leaking a fair 677 00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:22,640 Speaker 1: amount of oil, which we saw originally, but it didn't 678 00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:24,840 Speaker 1: catch our eyelight. Could this be the cause of the noise? 679 00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:28,520 Speaker 1: But it was related to body roll. We called up AutoZone. 680 00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:31,200 Speaker 1: We got to set a duralless struts for it, which 681 00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:34,680 Speaker 1: all came nice a coil spring the whole assembly, and 682 00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:38,040 Speaker 1: put it in and eliminated all the body roll, obviously, 683 00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:42,080 Speaker 1: eliminated the leaking strut, and eliminated our wobbling noise or 684 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:44,120 Speaker 1: the noise that we were hearing as the vehicle rolled 685 00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:46,920 Speaker 1: on turns and made for a very happy customer. Got 686 00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:48,840 Speaker 1: a lot of compliments and comments about how good the 687 00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:52,200 Speaker 1: vehicle wrote, and I blamed the door less struts. I said, 688 00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:54,239 Speaker 1: that's because the door least struts work so well, which 689 00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:56,719 Speaker 1: they do, it just flat out through a lot better 690 00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:58,319 Speaker 1: than the name brands or some of the other name 691 00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:01,200 Speaker 1: brands that are out there courtesy what'll Zone. Well, that 692 00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:04,800 Speaker 1: about does it for this hour, and all things aside, 693 00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:07,160 Speaker 1: I enjoyed being here and I'm glad to have spent 694 00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:08,839 Speaker 1: some time with you. I hope you got something out 695 00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:10,759 Speaker 1: of this. Until the next time, I'm ronning Andy in 696 00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:14,799 Speaker 1: the car doctor reminding you good mechanics aren't expensive, they're priceless. 697 00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:18,000 Speaker 1: See you
