00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 1: talk to Hope in Boston. Hope, how are you today?

100
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,800
Speaker 1: Merry Christmas to you, sir good? I'm doing well. So

101
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:52,040
Speaker 1: how can I help? Hey? I got a key zero

102
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:57,640
Speaker 1: five zero one on eight key ao. Um what I've

103
00:05:57,680 --> 00:05:59,760
Speaker 1: done so far? Of course I did with this big

104
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:04,159
Speaker 1: essays the vehicle speed sensor and that tested find off

105
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:07,920
Speaker 1: the car. M you know. So I went into the

106
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 1: wire into the highness. There's three wires. There's a black, yellow,

107
00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:17,039
Speaker 1: and red. I have a good ground on black. I

108
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:21,880
Speaker 1: have twelve votes on the yellow and I have two

109
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 1: votes on the red. I should be having five votes

110
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:30,919
Speaker 1: on the red. We we talked about this car, right, sure,

111
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:37,880
Speaker 1: yes I did. It wasn't The problem is up The

112
00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:42,160
Speaker 1: resistance on the red is zero, so there's an open

113
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:47,479
Speaker 1: target over there. Yellow and black gives me good grounds,

114
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,480
Speaker 1: so I'm sure about that. The problem we're using votes

115
00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:53,279
Speaker 1: and scope meters is they don't place a lord. Once

116
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 1: you disconnect the harness from the computer. Um, you know,

117
00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 1: there's some interference give or take, and the whole is

118
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:05,479
Speaker 1: bounded up like skift. You wires into the computer. All right,

119
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:07,839
Speaker 1: well look let me ask you. Does this car have

120
00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 1: a BS yes or no? No? It doesn't have a BS.

121
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 1: So on a non ABS Kia, they they only have

122
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,320
Speaker 1: a right front wheel speed sensor and that's what's used.

123
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:24,760
Speaker 1: That's what's used to calculate vehicle load. So of front

124
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:28,240
Speaker 1: wheel speed sensor on a non ABS car is only

125
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:33,160
Speaker 1: a two wire Okay, okay, this is a three wire

126
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 1: from the VSS vapor speed sensor, the one that goes

127
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:41,560
Speaker 1: into the transmission. No, I think, yeah, I think you're

128
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 1: on the wrong sensor unless I'm Unless I'm wrong, but

129
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:47,600
Speaker 1: I would verify that. My understanding is on O Waight's

130
00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:51,440
Speaker 1: they take vehicle speed signal. They take vehicle speed signal

131
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:53,960
Speaker 1: off the right front wheel speed sensor. Look at the car.

132
00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:59,000
Speaker 1: If the right if the car does not have a

133
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 1: B S all right, you're gonna have a speed sensor

134
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:07,680
Speaker 1: on the right front wheel. And that right front speed

135
00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:12,880
Speaker 1: sensor goes directly to the PCM. There's a there, there'll

136
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 1: be a yellow I think it's yellow and black or

137
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:17,560
Speaker 1: yellow and blue. I think it's yellow and yellow and blue.

138
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:19,960
Speaker 1: If I'm not mistaken. Um, it's just a two wire

139
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:24,440
Speaker 1: sensor and that's gonna provide that's gonna provide um wheel

140
00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:30,880
Speaker 1: speed input to the PCM. I think you're on the

141
00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:34,000
Speaker 1: wrong I think you're on the wrong sensor. Brother, Yeah,

142
00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 1: I would, I'm so sure. I would tell you to

143
00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:41,559
Speaker 1: go find some reference information and verify it. I don't believe.

144
00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 1: I don't believe their vehicle speed sensor comes out of

145
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:51,120
Speaker 1: the transmission on that car, not to my knowledge. That

146
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,839
Speaker 1: and if it does If they are pulling vehicle speed

147
00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:57,520
Speaker 1: sensor off that, then why do they have a wheel

148
00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:03,079
Speaker 1: speed sensor on the right front? What's its purpose? So

149
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:06,080
Speaker 1: I should be attacking this from that front, rightful, not

150
00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:08,920
Speaker 1: the one in the transmission. Don't look up at P

151
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:11,720
Speaker 1: zero five oh one. Do you have access to all

152
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:14,760
Speaker 1: data or Mitchell? Yes, I have the d I fiction

153
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:17,600
Speaker 1: and they tell you to go to that censor and

154
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:20,360
Speaker 1: the tail shaft of the transmission. Yes, they tell me

155
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:22,680
Speaker 1: to go to the telsens and the transmission with the

156
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:29,000
Speaker 1: three prongs. Boy, I I'd love to see that. Yeah. Um,

157
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:30,720
Speaker 1: that's why I went in and tested it. You know,

158
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:36,320
Speaker 1: I'm you know, ground black, yellow and whatever, and then

159
00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:39,839
Speaker 1: refers the voltages. Um. But on the red one you're

160
00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:43,800
Speaker 1: supposed to get five votes and I'm getting twelve votes, right,

161
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:49,240
Speaker 1: which makes me think you're on the wrong sensor. I

162
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:52,560
Speaker 1: keep coming back to that. I know of a two

163
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:55,480
Speaker 1: thousand eight I did one two months ago. I had

164
00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:58,880
Speaker 1: a two thousand seventy Rio right front wheel speed sensor.

165
00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:03,960
Speaker 1: R's it's it's it's it's not on the transmission. The

166
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:06,200
Speaker 1: wheel speed sensor is on the right front. That's what

167
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:10,040
Speaker 1: the PC I'm using to calculate vehicle speed right right right, Yeah,

168
00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:12,440
Speaker 1: I've taken that apart, and so you're saying I have

169
00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:15,280
Speaker 1: to Okay, so now we go back to the oil

170
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:17,400
Speaker 1: sense and I have to test to see what you know,

171
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:21,400
Speaker 1: are using the two wires to see, um, what's shutting out?

172
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:25,000
Speaker 1: Right right? I mean I would also you know what,

173
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:28,840
Speaker 1: can you take a picture of go back and read

174
00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:32,360
Speaker 1: your information again at p zero five? Oh one, Yes,

175
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:34,760
Speaker 1: if you've got a float chart that says go to

176
00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:37,360
Speaker 1: the vehicle speed sensor at the tail shaft of the transmission,

177
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:40,079
Speaker 1: I'd like to see that. Yeah, oh data, I mean,

178
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:42,280
Speaker 1: that's why I was referencing that. That's why I've been

179
00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:44,720
Speaker 1: trying to you know, miss with this table the whole week.

180
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:48,320
Speaker 1: You probably shot it from the other end of the transmission,

181
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:53,720
Speaker 1: not from the wheel. I believe I think you're reading

182
00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:56,880
Speaker 1: I just I have to assume, which is a dangerous word, hope,

183
00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:01,680
Speaker 1: that you're reading something wrong. You can have the images

Speaker 1: John Houston, Texas eighteen Dodge Ram power Wagon and uh

238
00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:57,880
Speaker 1: talking about purchasing one. John, You're gonna buy yourself an

239
00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 1: early Christmas present. Huh, Well, I'm looking at doing that, yes, sir,

240
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:06,839
Speaker 1: and uh, I guess this is my dilemma. I don't know,

241
00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:09,640
Speaker 1: you know the six four himies that come in them.

242
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:14,880
Speaker 1: I I understand they're pretty solid motor and I don't

243
00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:17,680
Speaker 1: know if I even want to go to the diesel

244
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:22,880
Speaker 1: and do I want the issues that that the diesels

245
00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:25,160
Speaker 1: are having from what I've been reading on the blogs

246
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:30,040
Speaker 1: out there with the emission systems and things like that. UM,

247
00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:33,800
Speaker 1: I'll be honest with you about it. I'm not gonna

248
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 1: pull all the time. When I do pull, I'm probably

249
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:37,840
Speaker 1: gonna pull a little boy with a tractor on the

250
00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:44,040
Speaker 1: back of it ten thousand and eleven thousand pounds, and uh,

251
00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:47,720
Speaker 1: I'm just I don't know which way I want to go.

252
00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:50,360
Speaker 1: I like the power Wagon because it's got the front

253
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:53,440
Speaker 1: and rear lockers with the you know, the disconnect on

254
00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:57,160
Speaker 1: the sway bars up front. But uh, is is it

255
00:14:57,200 --> 00:15:01,560
Speaker 1: a solid truck I want to do? You know, Chrysler

256
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:03,360
Speaker 1: people talk to me all the time about what to buy,

257
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:06,240
Speaker 1: and I tell him, listen for four GM or Chrysler.

258
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 1: Just pick something you like because they're they've they've all

259
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 1: got their pluses and minuses. But I think they're all

260
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:14,280
Speaker 1: good solid vehicles. I you know, when I get into

261
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:18,680
Speaker 1: the diesel and gasoline engine conversation, John, it's it's always

262
00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:21,680
Speaker 1: are you really going to use that diesel? In the

263
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:23,920
Speaker 1: case of the Chrysler, have you looked at what that

264
00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:26,440
Speaker 1: adds checkbook wise to the price of the vehicle. It's

265
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:30,120
Speaker 1: a good ten twelve thousand dollars, right, no doubt about it.

266
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:34,520
Speaker 1: And that has to do with Dodger Chevy, right. Yeah. Yeah,

267
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:37,080
Speaker 1: they're all pretty much across the board. So you know,

268
00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:39,360
Speaker 1: if everybody that wants to buy a diesel I said

269
00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:42,080
Speaker 1: to somebody this week in the shop. You know, twenty

270
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 1: years ago you would see twenty two year old kids

271
00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:46,880
Speaker 1: go out and buy and f two fifty Ford and

272
00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:49,080
Speaker 1: put a diesel in it, and they put stacks on

273
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 1: it make it look like a little eighteen wheeler. You

274
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:54,360
Speaker 1: don't see that anymore because the price of the diesel

275
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 1: pickups has just gone out of sight. And I guess

276
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:00,560
Speaker 1: the two year olds don't have them money they used

277
00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:02,920
Speaker 1: to have. Maybe they've all they're all off doing something

278
00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:05,720
Speaker 1: else now. It's but it was a very different world

279
00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:08,920
Speaker 1: years ago. You know, if you're gonna use that diesel,

280
00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:13,280
Speaker 1: I mean really use that diesel like a diesel's intended. Yeah,

281
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:15,680
Speaker 1: you know what you're gonna You're gonna find a diesel guy.

282
00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:18,000
Speaker 1: You're gonna find somebody that speaks Dodge diesel and he's

283
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:20,480
Speaker 1: gonna become your mechanic because that's the other part of

284
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:25,200
Speaker 1: his conversation. You know, whatever you're driving now, who works

285
00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:26,800
Speaker 1: on it? Do you go to an independent or do

286
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:30,080
Speaker 1: you go to the dealer? Well, you know, no, I

287
00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:32,560
Speaker 1: take it to an independent. Okay, So you know, the

288
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:35,320
Speaker 1: conversation has to be had with him or her, as

289
00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:37,640
Speaker 1: the case might be. You know, can you can? You?

290
00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:39,560
Speaker 1: Can you work on either one? What do you what

291
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:45,720
Speaker 1: do you favor? Well, I mean me as a Roger mechanic. Yeah,

292
00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:48,160
Speaker 1: back in the seventies when I grew up, sure I

293
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 1: could work on cars, but the stuff today, No, I

294
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:55,040
Speaker 1: don't have the tools or the computers to do that.

295
00:16:55,800 --> 00:17:00,160
Speaker 1: And uh, you know, my deal is is that I

296
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:02,200
Speaker 1: know the fuel mileage is probably gonna be a little

297
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:04,400
Speaker 1: bit better with the diesel, but is it gonna pay

298
00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:07,119
Speaker 1: off in the long run? It is it worth buying

299
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:10,200
Speaker 1: the diesel if I'm really not gonna use it that much,

300
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:13,760
Speaker 1: meaning to pull with you know, to pull the tractor

301
00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:18,639
Speaker 1: around to and from once maybe every two months, three months.

302
00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:20,600
Speaker 1: And I don't think it I don't. I don't think

303
00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:22,159
Speaker 1: it does. John. And the other thing you got to

304
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:24,600
Speaker 1: think about is that first hundred thousand miles with the

305
00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:29,680
Speaker 1: diesel theoretically should be trouble free. But you know, after

306
00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:32,159
Speaker 1: that hundred thousand miles, which you have to drive a

307
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:34,720
Speaker 1: diesel in my opinion, and from the reports I read,

308
00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:37,959
Speaker 1: a good two and fifty thousand miles to get payback. Uh,

309
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:41,480
Speaker 1: you know, the fuel savings difference. Uh, I don't see

310
00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:44,080
Speaker 1: it paying off because you get to that next hundred

311
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:45,600
Speaker 1: thousand miles and all of a sudden, you need a

312
00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,680
Speaker 1: set of injectors. And if they're like the current generation,

313
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:50,680
Speaker 1: all of a sudden you dropped five six thousand dollars

314
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:54,159
Speaker 1: on a set of injectors. What we save so it

315
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:58,159
Speaker 1: isn't necessarily And that's kind of what I was looking at.

316
00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:02,040
Speaker 1: Is past different between the two? Worked it or not? Right?

317
00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:04,880
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think so, John, I really don't.

318
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,720
Speaker 1: I go out and get yourself a gas get yourself

319
00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:09,560
Speaker 1: to hemmy the hemy gas engine. I think it'll be

320
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:11,800
Speaker 1: better off from a maintenance perspective. And look at it

321
00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:14,119
Speaker 1: this way. It's not a tattoo. Brother, it's not forever.

322
00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:15,800
Speaker 1: You don't like it, sell it in three years by

323
00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:18,320
Speaker 1: another one. By then something else better will have come along.

324
00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:20,400
Speaker 1: I hope I helped. I'm Ny and the car Doctor.

325
00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:44,600
Speaker 1: We're back right after this. Look at Frosty. Go hey,

326
00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:47,000
Speaker 1: welcome back the car doctor. Um, do we have a

327
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,639
Speaker 1: call on one. Let's go to one. Let's go to one.

328
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,960
Speaker 1: Let's go talk to Doug and main f one fifty

329
00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:54,480
Speaker 1: and see what's going on here. Hey, Doug, welcome to

330
00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:59,280
Speaker 1: the car doctor, sir, how can I help hi, dear? Um? Yeah,

331
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:05,320
Speaker 1: Ford to drive V six. Uh, little little background on

332
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:09,640
Speaker 1: the vehicle came from Florida about five years ago. I've

333
00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:13,440
Speaker 1: owned it three years. My son's used it for for

334
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:17,159
Speaker 1: during that time. I've got it back and uh, the

335
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:21,600
Speaker 1: problem is the winshield wipers do not work. I have

336
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 1: checked the motor, the motor works. I have checked the

337
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:26,560
Speaker 1: switch to switch out, you know with no meter, the

338
00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:32,000
Speaker 1: switch you know, the directional switch part of the winshell

339
00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:35,359
Speaker 1: wiper switch that all works. Anyway, I've tracked it down

340
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:42,200
Speaker 1: to there's this thing called the GIN module electronic module okay, yea,

341
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:47,160
Speaker 1: And near as I can tell, that is the problem.

342
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:51,000
Speaker 1: I can't seem to find one. Um. I've you know,

343
00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:54,679
Speaker 1: I've looked on online ebaying things like that, and I

344
00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,399
Speaker 1: don't dare to buy one that isn't the exact number

345
00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:01,919
Speaker 1: or everything. Yeah, I'm just want to get your thoughts,

346
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:05,520
Speaker 1: Like there's somebody on on I think on eb claims

347
00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:07,399
Speaker 1: that they can repair them. Do you know if they

348
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:10,800
Speaker 1: can be repaired or you know, I've seen some pretty

349
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:14,280
Speaker 1: amazing things repaired from not necessarily eBay, But these guys

350
00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:16,240
Speaker 1: that are claiming they can do it. They're they're they're

351
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:19,160
Speaker 1: pulling the circuit boards apart, and they are. I can't

352
00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:21,679
Speaker 1: say I've seen that particular one fixed, but I have

353
00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:26,280
Speaker 1: I have heard stories similar electronic components like that being repaired.

354
00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:28,920
Speaker 1: You know. The other thing to look at is and

355
00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:31,439
Speaker 1: let me just mentioned I didn't hear you say that

356
00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:34,280
Speaker 1: you verified all the fuses related to the wipers were good.

357
00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:38,080
Speaker 1: Did you do? I have? I have checked that as well,

358
00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:42,840
Speaker 1: every anything that remotely connects to the wipers. I have

359
00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:46,800
Speaker 1: checked the fuses again, nothing's nothing's bound up. I've got

360
00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:49,600
Speaker 1: the cover off onto the hood. You know when all

361
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:51,760
Speaker 1: the arms move, and like I said, you put a

362
00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:54,040
Speaker 1: jump of wire to the motor and the motor runs

363
00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:58,400
Speaker 1: on two speed and all that stuff. So there there

364
00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:01,400
Speaker 1: there used to be an outfit Ford Obsolete Parts. I'm

365
00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:05,119
Speaker 1: trying to think Green Motor Sales. Was it Green Green

366
00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:09,720
Speaker 1: Ford Parts Sales? Green Motor Sales in the Midwest Ohio, Illinois? Um,

367
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:14,440
Speaker 1: if you Google search for Ford Obsolete Parts, you're gonna

368
00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:17,000
Speaker 1: see something come up along the lines of of Green

369
00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:20,639
Speaker 1: Auto Sales or Ford Green Parts or they're basically the

370
00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:23,960
Speaker 1: national clearing house that's contracted with Ford or they were.

371
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:25,560
Speaker 1: I haven't looked at them in a while. It's funny

372
00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:27,520
Speaker 1: you say this, Um, I have to think back now,

373
00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:29,240
Speaker 1: it's probably been a year and a half since I

374
00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:32,120
Speaker 1: actually had to look for anything there. Um. And they will,

375
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:34,440
Speaker 1: They'll go around, they'll buy up you know, new old

376
00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:37,840
Speaker 1: stock from dealers inventory that's outdated, and they're just they'll

377
00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:40,119
Speaker 1: just put an inventory. They've got some stuff going I

378
00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:44,320
Speaker 1: mean back to the thirties. Uh you know, so one

379
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:46,800
Speaker 1: fifty is like a new car to them. Uh you

380
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:49,639
Speaker 1: know it's And you can, if I remember right, you

381
00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:51,879
Speaker 1: can get into their online catalog and then go and

382
00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:55,160
Speaker 1: look up you know, parts directly there or at least

383
00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:57,560
Speaker 1: research and there's a phone number you can call during

384
00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:00,320
Speaker 1: weekday hours. Of course, this week being Christmas, you won't

385
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:02,520
Speaker 1: be probably help to get ahold of until after after

386
00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:05,960
Speaker 1: the holiday. But uh um, yeah, that would that would

387
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:07,680
Speaker 1: be it. I've seen some pretty good things come out

388
00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:09,800
Speaker 1: of Ford Green sales or I'm trying to think of

389
00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:12,920
Speaker 1: how it's pronounced obsolete Ford Parts. I know the word

390
00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:17,240
Speaker 1: green is in there, um. And like I said, it's Illinois, Indiana,

391
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:21,320
Speaker 1: Ohio somewhere in that part of the country. Okay, all right,

392
00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:26,560
Speaker 1: I'll look at that and uh, um, yeah, you know

393
00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 1: I've been able to well. One of the questions, would

394
00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:32,480
Speaker 1: would you uh you know, might think it is it

395
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,040
Speaker 1: should have the exact same number work in that truck.

396
00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:37,560
Speaker 1: Now somebody says that that, you know, a truck with

397
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:41,760
Speaker 1: power windows and all that stuff. The wipers might still

398
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:45,159
Speaker 1: work in it, but but uh, the screen auto supply

399
00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:49,520
Speaker 1: would be the best miss might's the operative words, you know, doug,

400
00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:54,359
Speaker 1: um you know? And yeah, and then the problem with

401
00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:57,840
Speaker 1: sending it out to somebody on eBay to repair it is,

402
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:00,359
Speaker 1: you know, this is the only known working copy of

403
00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:03,480
Speaker 1: it that you have, and you know, if it goes

404
00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:05,680
Speaker 1: out and doesn't come back for some reason, it gets

405
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:07,600
Speaker 1: lost in the mail, it gets lost in the shuffle,

406
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:10,240
Speaker 1: then what do you do now you've got nothing to

407
00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:12,960
Speaker 1: work from. Um, I would surely take a picture of

408
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:17,159
Speaker 1: that module, the pin side, the part number side, from

409
00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:19,160
Speaker 1: all different angles, and I would surely take a picture

410
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:20,800
Speaker 1: of that and let it's get stored in the clouds

411
00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:22,679
Speaker 1: so I have it forever in a day, you know,

412
00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:24,800
Speaker 1: just if I need something to reference from before I

413
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:26,720
Speaker 1: sent it anywhere. If that's what you're gonna do. But

414
00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:29,240
Speaker 1: if not to get a second one, of course, you

415
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:31,000
Speaker 1: gotta look at the price difference that you have no

416
00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:33,639
Speaker 1: idea what it's worth. It's an obsolete part. That's the

417
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:36,159
Speaker 1: bad part about obsolete parts houses. If it's if it's

418
00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:39,480
Speaker 1: an obsolete part, yeah, it's generally a couple of bucks more.

419
00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:42,320
Speaker 1: But sometimes you're better off doing that because you know

420
00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:45,960
Speaker 1: what you're getting, you know, it's exactly Yeah, I would

421
00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:49,480
Speaker 1: rather spend a few dollars for a new old stock

422
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:52,920
Speaker 1: perhaps or and or you know, send it. I mean

423
00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:56,760
Speaker 1: the Rea place there. You know, they're you know, and

424
00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:59,440
Speaker 1: you've got to ship at both ways and uh and yeah,

425
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:02,480
Speaker 1: and if you get back and you know, and I

426
00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:06,879
Speaker 1: gotta tell you, a hundred bucks is nothing, uh, you

427
00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:14,080
Speaker 1: know for right, it's it's it's you know. One of

428
00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:16,159
Speaker 1: the things I said, I said it years ago, and

429
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:18,199
Speaker 1: I think it's coming back to prove me right now

430
00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:20,720
Speaker 1: that I need to be proven right. Uh, My mind

431
00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:22,800
Speaker 1: doesn't work like that. But it's sad to say that

432
00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:25,600
Speaker 1: I said years and years ago that all the electronics

433
00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:28,440
Speaker 1: on car is gonna limit how long and how well

434
00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:31,520
Speaker 1: they can be repaired. And it comes up now more

435
00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:34,440
Speaker 1: and more it's sort of the same thing as try

436
00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:35,879
Speaker 1: to find I don't know why you would want to,

437
00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:38,000
Speaker 1: but the idea is the same. Try to find a

438
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:40,680
Speaker 1: computer that will run Windows three point one or Windows

439
00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:43,080
Speaker 1: ninety five, or try and find a copy of Windows

440
00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:46,120
Speaker 1: ninety five. Try and find a computer with a floppy

441
00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:50,679
Speaker 1: disk drive on it. You know, technology just passes us by.

442
00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:53,200
Speaker 1: In the case of the computer, it was four bucks.

443
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:55,680
Speaker 1: You threw it out, you didn't care. Now you've got

444
00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:58,040
Speaker 1: this vehicle, all right, So it's a ninety eight. You've

445
00:24:58,040 --> 00:24:59,920
Speaker 1: got twenty years us out of your vehicle, but it's

446
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:03,120
Speaker 1: all a good vehicle. Throw it out. Hey, Hey, you know, Doug,

447
00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:08,320
Speaker 1: have you priced a new F one fifty lately? Yeah

448
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:12,160
Speaker 1: you know? Oh yeah yeah, a stripped rear wheel drive

449
00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:14,479
Speaker 1: F one fifty V six. If they even make it,

450
00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:16,360
Speaker 1: I've got to venture to guess it is probably every

451
00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:19,960
Speaker 1: bit of forty five dollars. You know. It's it's it's

452
00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:24,879
Speaker 1: nuts over over a module. It's you know. But that's

453
00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:28,200
Speaker 1: that's where you are, sir. All right, So good luck, Tom,

454
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:29,400
Speaker 1: and let me know if I can do anything else

455
00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:32,679

462
00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:06,000
Speaker 1: special kind of year, special time of year. And I

463
00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:08,280
Speaker 1: was reading an article at the kitchen table at the

464
00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:11,440
Speaker 1: house and it it talked about Dynas Diota Body and Patterson,

465
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:15,320
Speaker 1: New Jersey, and they're they're doing something that I think there.

466
00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:17,120
Speaker 1: It's being done around the country, but it's being done

467
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:18,840
Speaker 1: here locally in New Jersey. And I said, you know,

468
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:21,119
Speaker 1: this is a great human interest story. We like to

469
00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:23,680
Speaker 1: hear do good things or things that make us feel good.

470
00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:25,640
Speaker 1: Um and that's clearly what they're doing here, is they're

471
00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:28,480
Speaker 1: they're fixing up vehicles. Uh, and they're giving them to

472
00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:31,399
Speaker 1: disabled veterans. And we've reached out and uh, we're kind

473
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:33,840
Speaker 1: of doing this on the fly today because we're throwing

474
00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:35,919
Speaker 1: things together at the last minute. It often happens in

475
00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:38,080
Speaker 1: the case of live radio, and we were able to

Speaker 1: told me when I went with this first vehicle, he said, Alex, listen, UM,

501
00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:02,560
Speaker 1: you to be on board. Uh. You know, I've had

502
00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:05,320
Speaker 1: the distinct honor of being a Patterson police officer for

503
00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:08,160
Speaker 1: right now twenty four and a half years. Grew up

504
00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:11,280
Speaker 1: in Patterson when and served my country, came back and

505
00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:14,119
Speaker 1: I'm we're still serving our country, uh, you know, and

506
00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:18,000
Speaker 1: our city. Me and John and uh, we vetted our

507
00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:20,760
Speaker 1: our veterans that are in need. They gave us a

508
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:23,919
Speaker 1: little resume of you know, what they've been through, the

509
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:26,679
Speaker 1: hardships that they're going through. And then, uh, you know,

510
00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:30,119
Speaker 1: our committee selects what veteran And even though we just

511
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:33,680
Speaker 1: gave out that vehicle, we are already vetting other veterans

512
00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:37,359
Speaker 1: because John has indicated with Geico that they're going to

513
00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:42,000
Speaker 1: have another car giveaway in February. So uh, you know,

514
00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:46,200
Speaker 1: once as one start uh finishes, another one commences. And

515

Speaker 1: I mean I know. Tom My, my producer, was telling me.

522
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:10,280
Speaker 1: We kind of threw this together at the last minute.

00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:26,800
Speaker 1: and um, as you say, serving your city and your country. Um, John,

529
00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:28,920
Speaker 1: if I can have John back for a second, John,

530
00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:31,840
Speaker 1: when you when you pick the car, you know this

531
00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:34,320
Speaker 1: is a total vehicle, correct, and yet you guys put

532
00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:37,240
Speaker 1: it back together. That is correct. What we do is

533
00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:39,160
Speaker 1: we have a state of the art repair facility that

534
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:41,720
Speaker 1: we're able to do that. So we do is we

535
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 1: bring it back to original manufacturer specifications. The car is

536
00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:48,760
Speaker 1: perfectly fine on the you know, perfectly like brand new

537
00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:51,400
Speaker 1: on the road. And what we do is we go

538
00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:54,800
Speaker 1: through a state inspection with it as well, and you know,

539
00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:57,880
Speaker 1: a couple of safety you know, inspections on it, and

540
00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:00,440
Speaker 1: we make sure that it's roadworthy and it's you know,

541
00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:02,800
Speaker 1: good card back on the road. We also we don't

542
00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:05,280
Speaker 1: leave the veteran. What we do is we also give

543
00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:07,480
Speaker 1: them a one year warranty with the vehicle when we

544
00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:11,120
Speaker 1: give it to them. Wow. And and this is this

545
00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:14,400
Speaker 1: is part of a nationwide program too. Can you tell

546
00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:16,400
Speaker 1: us a little bit about that. We're a national show,

547
00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:18,480
Speaker 1: So I'm sure there are the body shops out there

548
00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:21,720
Speaker 1: there that are probably taking part in other states. Um,

549
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:24,479
Speaker 1: what about the national organization? What can you fill us

550
00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:27,760
Speaker 1: in on? Well, the national organization basically, you know, the

551
00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:31,000
Speaker 1: way we started in two thousand, um fourteen. It was

552
00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:33,960
Speaker 1: the first vehicle that we gave away. Get this in

553
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:37,120
Speaker 1: contact with certain insurance companies that do are part of

554
00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:39,800
Speaker 1: the program, and it's sort of you know, gives us

555
00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:42,280
Speaker 1: the guidance on how to do it and expect the vehicle,

556
00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:45,840
Speaker 1: you know, and that's what basically they do. So they

557
00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:48,280
Speaker 1: give us some sort of assistance doing that, but we

558
00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:52,160
Speaker 1: do all the legwork. We actually picked the veteran. You know,

559
00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:54,520
Speaker 1: we go through make sure they qualify, you know, and

560
00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:57,600
Speaker 1: with great people, you know, with people like Alex helping us,

561
00:30:57,640 --> 00:30:59,800
Speaker 1: that's how we're able to that, you know, get the vetterman.

562
00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:03,000
Speaker 1: People people like Alex and all his brothers and sisters

563
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:05,160
Speaker 1: in Blue are holding that city together. At times, I

564
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:07,920
Speaker 1: think and um, this I thought. I thought this was

565
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:12,240
Speaker 1: extraordinary effort um under tough conditions, and I was really impressed.

566
00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:14,440
Speaker 1: I said to Tom, I said, we got to get

567
00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:16,960
Speaker 1: these guys on air and highlight this story. And I

568
00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:19,040
Speaker 1: don't think we can do it enough justice, I really don't.

569
00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:21,640
Speaker 1: You guys should be really proud. You've got great Christmas

Speaker 1: I got about two minutes, go baby, very real quick

618

Speaker 1: Christ with three hundred two dollars and eighteen Uh take

619
00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:14,560
Speaker 1: an a for an oil change. They tell me, like

620
00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:16,319
Speaker 1: at three dollars and miles, I need to bring it

621
00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:18,839
Speaker 1: back in again for another oil change. I look at

622
00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:21,600
Speaker 1: my computer on my dashboards telling me I have sixty

623
00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:25,200
Speaker 1: maybe seventy left on my oil change. What do I believe?

624
00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:26,880
Speaker 1: And do I believe in the mechanic? Do I believe

625
00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:29,880
Speaker 1: in my car? It sounds that sounds a little early.

626
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:32,480
Speaker 1: So an eighteen christ or three hundred, that's gotta be

627
00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:36,520
Speaker 1: synthetic oil, all right, Um, it is not. So you're

628
00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:41,880
Speaker 1: running conventional oil in that well, So conventional oil changes

629
00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:44,920
Speaker 1: will go three to four thousand miles three to four months.

630
00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:47,880
Speaker 1: All right. Now you want to look at the oil.

631
00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:50,280
Speaker 1: You want to look at the oil monitor. The oil monitor,

632
00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:54,240
Speaker 1: you know isn't necessarily right, but it's not necessarily wrong.

633
00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:56,200
Speaker 1: It's a matter of judgment. What does the oil look

634
00:34:56,239 --> 00:34:59,200
Speaker 1: like when it comes out? What's the condition, what's it's colored?

635
00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:01,480
Speaker 1: How want to be a plan on keeping the cars

636
00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:04,680

637
00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:07,040

Speaker 1: two minutes. So I'm gonna have to reference you. I'll
