00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 1: got I got a graduate. He's got about seven thousand

33
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 1: dollars and graduation money, and he's wanting to buy a

34
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 1: used vehicle. Of course. He just wanting to see if

35
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:13,919
Speaker 1: you had any ideas for him. You know, it is

36
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:15,720
Speaker 1: he gonna go Is he gonna go to college? Alex?

37
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 1: So it's it's it's gonna be a transportation vehicle. Um,

38
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:23,360
Speaker 1: does he work part time? Can he use the vehicle

39
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:25,680
Speaker 1: to help him with a part time job? Perhaps? I'm

40
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:27,760
Speaker 1: I'm just trying to decide, you know, do we want

41
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:29,720
Speaker 1: to talk about Sedan's Do we want to talk about

42
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 1: pickup trucks? Do we want to talk about? You know,

43
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:36,440
Speaker 1: is there any way that you know, whatever vehicle he

44
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:38,480
Speaker 1: gets might help him with the part time job to

45
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:41,920
Speaker 1: get him through college. Correct, he he does have a

46
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 1: part time job, it's probably gonna be a pickup because

47
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 1: he has a motorcycle that he's gonna have to drag

48
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:52,480
Speaker 1: with him. So yeah, pick up and be more so,

49
00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,360
Speaker 1: you know, big pick up, full size, small, what's he

50
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:59,840
Speaker 1: looking for? Let's let's go, Uh, full size, full size,

51
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,240
Speaker 1: nothing better than a Chevy or Ford if it's in

52
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,239
Speaker 1: his price range. I don't I don't think seven grand's

53
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 1: gonna get him there. I think, uh, he's probably gonna

54
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:08,400
Speaker 1: go a little bit in debt. But that's okay. Going

55
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:10,920
Speaker 1: into debt. Young teaches you to work harder and you know,

56
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,680
Speaker 1: work towards a goal, and uh, you know that's okay.

57
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,400
Speaker 1: I'd rather see him, you know, at this point, if

58
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 1: he's going to college and he has to stretch the

59
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:20,000
Speaker 1: envelope a little bit and work a little harder and

60
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 1: maybe putting a couple of extra hours at night or

61
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:25,399
Speaker 1: wherever he's working, and um, you know, learn the good

62
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:26,839
Speaker 1: things in life or there if you want to work

63
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:28,799
Speaker 1: hard for him. I'd rather see him stretch a little

64
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 1: bit and try and reach his you know, extend his

65
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,440
Speaker 1: reach and and and and buy a better vehicle. But

66
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 1: you know, I would look at a Ford, I woul

67
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 1: look at a Chevy. I'd stay away from a Chrysler

68
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 1: or Dodge. Um, I don't think their pickup trucks are

69
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:42,480
Speaker 1: what they once were. And uh um, you know that

70
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:47,600
Speaker 1: would be about it, basically low mileage, good tires. Yeah,

71
00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:50,800
Speaker 1: I mean that's that's that's well, that's yeah, that's kind

72
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:52,720
Speaker 1: of a different question though, because then the next part

73
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,240
Speaker 1: of this is, you know, what are we gonna buying?

74
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:57,160
Speaker 1: You know, of course I probably go look at a

75
00:03:57,600 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 1: I'd have to say, i'd go look at a Toyota

76
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 1: pick up at had something full size in his range. Um,

77
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 1: you know, but it's also gonna come back to who's

78
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 1: gonna work on it? And I say this time and again,

79
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 1: you know, it doesn't matter what you buy. Sooner or later,

80
00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:13,800
Speaker 1: it's gonna break. It could be Brandy spanking new. Sooner

81
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:15,920
Speaker 1: or later, it's gonna it's gonna break. And you know,

82
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:19,839
Speaker 1: if the dealership you're buying it from, or the repair

83
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:22,160
Speaker 1: shop or the used card dealer you're buying it from

84
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:25,040
Speaker 1: has a bad reputation. It could be the you know,

85
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:27,159
Speaker 1: it could be the prettiest girl in the world. But

86
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:29,960
Speaker 1: sooner or later it's going to be a problem. And

87
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:32,800
Speaker 1: you know that's that's just gonna be an issue. And

88
00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:35,880
Speaker 1: that's just really the way it is. So you know,

89
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 1: keep being mindful of who's gonna work on it, and

90
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 1: do they have the tooling of the technology to work

91
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:46,200
Speaker 1: on it. H M. You know he's already got the

92
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:50,040
Speaker 1: prettiest girl, so we'll go with that. Yeah, well, you know,

Speaker 1: We're heading out right now to go look at some cars. Well,

111
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:45,919
Speaker 1: hard to get an eighteen year old to listen to

112
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:50,640

Speaker 1: my dad used to listen to this guy on one

137
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:07,880

143
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:21,440
Speaker 1: music to come out of the radio, but I liked

144
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 1: hanging out with my dad, and um, uh, you know,

145
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:26,600
Speaker 1: it just just kind of made me feel old and

150
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,960
Speaker 1: of the automobile. So go look at a bunch of cars. Um,

151
00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:45,760

Speaker 1: You know, pull the dipstick, Look at the dipstick. How

Speaker 1: cleans the oil? If you're buying something used, obviously you

154
00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:54,560
Speaker 1: will be turned on the radio. What radio stations are there?

155
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,120
Speaker 1: If it's heavy metal, death music, maybe that's not the

156
00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 1: car we want. If it's, you know, something classical and opera,

157
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:03,320
Speaker 1: maybe that the person that drove slow Maybe we want that. Uh.

158
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:04,880
Speaker 1: You know, take a look at the spare as the

159
00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:06,720
Speaker 1: sip are ever been on the car? Doesn't if it's

160
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 1: a used car again, doesn't have a spare? Are the

161
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:13,880
Speaker 1: jack tools there? You know? Start looking around for signs

162
00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:17,239
Speaker 1: of wear and tear. Start start looking around for signs

163
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 1: of flood vehicle. You know, sniff the car. You smell.

164
00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,280
Speaker 1: You smell moistures, smell like mildew. Although they're pretty good

165
00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:26,760
Speaker 1: at hiding it today. But just just be careful of

166
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:29,680
Speaker 1: what you buy and and and just like Dayton, don't

167
00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:31,760
Speaker 1: fall in love with the first girl. Just make sure

168
00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:33,559
Speaker 1: it's the right car before you. You know, you want

169
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:36,200
Speaker 1: to take it out with the long haul. Um uh

170
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:37,920
Speaker 1: you know, so go back and look at it twice

171
00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 1: and drive the vehicle twice. I tell everybody drive any

172
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:44,200
Speaker 1: car new or used during the day and at night

173
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:48,840
Speaker 1: because it's it's personality changes, you know, from data in

174
00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:51,160
Speaker 1: the nighttime. All of a sudden at nighttime it's dark.

175
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:55,599
Speaker 1: You know, is the radio in in in reach? Do

176
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:58,120
Speaker 1: you have to fumble with the knobs? Can you see everything?

177
00:08:58,120 --> 00:08:59,840
Speaker 1: Do you have a good feel for it? You know,

178
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,360
Speaker 1: their good vision to the left, good vision to the right.

179
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:04,679
Speaker 1: That kind of thing. Um, I mean, he has to

180
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:06,480
Speaker 1: like the truck. You have to like the vehicle. But

181
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:09,720
Speaker 1: you know, a car, a truck's personality changes all the

182
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 1: time depending upon whether you're driving daytime, nighttime, good weather,

183
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:15,720
Speaker 1: bad weather, that kind of thing. So um, take your time,

184
00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:18,360
Speaker 1: go slow and you'll pick the right vehicle. Alright, kiddo,

185
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:22,680
Speaker 1: All right, hey, I appreciate and just remember buying the

186
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:26,320
Speaker 1: glory my friend. Yes, sir, I yeah, listen you you

187
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:28,640
Speaker 1: bring him up and I understand that too, because he's

188
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:30,679
Speaker 1: the one that gave me this radio show. Alex, I

189

206
00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:25,880
Speaker 1: Alex and his son reminded me Father's Day is just

207
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:29,479
Speaker 1: around the corner. And you know there's a perfect opportunity,

208
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 1: right uh, something to talk about and doing something with

209
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,640
Speaker 1: dad or the dad figure in your life. And I,

210
00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:37,720
Speaker 1: you know, we we want to use those stories and

211
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 1: we might even read a few in the in the

212
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 1: coming weeks. But if you've got a dad's story, if

213
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 1: the person that influenced you about cars, or you know,

214
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:47,640
Speaker 1: the S O S story bailed you out on the

215
00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:50,319
Speaker 1: side of the road, or what you're right from wrong

216
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:53,240
Speaker 1: from a car, you know, or taking care of a car,

217
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:55,520
Speaker 1: can you send us that story? Can you really please?

218
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:58,880
Speaker 1: I think it's inspiring and I think you know it.

219
00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 1: It gives us that few old good moment. It's that

220
00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:03,000
Speaker 1: feel good button that we all kind of need during

221
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,560
Speaker 1: the day to you know, get through the day. It's

222
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:08,199
Speaker 1: it's and that's what cars are too to a point. Also,

223
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:11,120
Speaker 1: they're more than just transportation. They're much more than just transportation.

224
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 1: And um, you know, do so email at Ron at

225
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:16,439
Speaker 1: Car Doctor show dot com or if you can get

226
00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:18,560
Speaker 1: up to the Car Doctor Facebook page, Ron and any

227
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 1: and the Car Doctor posted up there, and um, you

228
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:24,200
Speaker 1: know we'll we'll we'll take that. We'll do something with it.

229
00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:27,440
Speaker 1: I promise um, something good. Uh you know, you're you're

230
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:29,640
Speaker 1: you're you're putting good energy out there and good mojo

231
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:32,800
Speaker 1: and uh um. It's just sometimes you know what it's healing.

232
00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:35,080
Speaker 1: It makes you feel good to talk about dad or

233
00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:37,559
Speaker 1: that dad figure to uh you know, you know what

234
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:40,679
Speaker 1: they helped you do and so on. So just think

235
00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:42,240
Speaker 1: about that. In the next couple of weeks. Let's go

236
00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 1: and talk to Is that Jim in Raleigh, North Carolina?

237
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:50,040
Speaker 1: I believe oh three Subaru. Yes, Hello, Ron, I feel

238
00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:52,000
Speaker 1: like you're part of the family after six months listening

239
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 1: to your podcast. Thanks Jim. I appreciate you being there, man,

240
00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:57,080
Speaker 1: I really do. And uh um, I'm glad you're here

241
00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,640
Speaker 1: with me today. How can I help you, sir? I

242
00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:02,480
Speaker 1: have a two thousand three super Reforester with an air

243
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:06,080
Speaker 1: conditioning problem. Whereby I can drive it probably all day

244
00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:09,199
Speaker 1: at above forty miles per hour, never stopping, and I've

245
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 1: got fantastic air conditioning, couldn't be any colder. But if

246
00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 1: I finished that trip with letting it just sit for

247
00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:19,560
Speaker 1: five minutes with the engine running and temperatures above eighty

248
00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:23,760
Speaker 1: seven degrees, so the engine compartment gets heat soaked. The

249
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 1: a C compressor quits cutting in, and the solution seems

250
00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 1: to be either recycled, you know the auto button on

251
00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:33,760
Speaker 1: the dashboard several times till it will cut in. But

252
00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:36,760
Speaker 1: but one thing that will always work is to remove

253
00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:41,600
Speaker 1: the A C compressor relay reseat. It will always cause

254
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 1: the A C compressor to start cutting in. And so

255
00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:47,120
Speaker 1: because of that, I replaced the A C compressor with

256
00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:49,800
Speaker 1: a new one. I know what you say about new. Anyway,

257
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:52,440
Speaker 1: I did that. I still have the same problem. Also,

258
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:54,840
Speaker 1: when the condition was in, I pulled that relay. I

259
00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:57,440
Speaker 1: measured voltage on both sides of the coil and the switch,

260
00:12:57,480 --> 00:12:59,240
Speaker 1: and it looks like I got the right stuff there.

261
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,760
Speaker 1: So the question is, if you've got the relay closed,

262
00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:06,400
Speaker 1: where is it getting lost? If if if the really

263
00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 1: if the relay is closed and it's it's applying power

264
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,360
Speaker 1: down to the compressor, have you gone to the compressor?

265
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:16,520
Speaker 1: Does it have power at the compressor? I haven't got gone.

266
00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:19,600
Speaker 1: You mean when the condition exists, right, Well, let's let's

267
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:22,600
Speaker 1: do it two ways. Okay, when the when the compressor

268
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:25,319
Speaker 1: is working, let's go down and measure voltage at the

269
00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:29,520
Speaker 1: compressor clutch itself, so we know what we're looking for. Right,

270
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:31,920
Speaker 1: we know what you know. Sometimes to know what bad is,

271
00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:34,720
Speaker 1: you got to know what good is. Right, let's go,

272
00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:37,120
Speaker 1: let's go see what good looks like. And then when

273
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:40,920
Speaker 1: it stops, let's you know what don't we have? I

274
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:42,720
Speaker 1: know it's very easy to say, well, it can't be

275
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,959
Speaker 1: the compressor. Prove it to me, you know, test it

276
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,440
Speaker 1: tested the exact same way. Do you have voltage going

277
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:53,160
Speaker 1: to the compressor? All right? And if you do, if

278
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:56,160
Speaker 1: you've got voltage there, where's the groundside of that clutch

279
00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:59,640
Speaker 1: coil to engage that coil? How is that control? Thinks

280
00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:02,200
Speaker 1: I'm thinking, is the compressor case? From what I see

281
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:05,600
Speaker 1: is the schematic, right, I believe they come they run

282
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:09,320
Speaker 1: a pigtail off that uh coil feed and that grounds

283
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:11,439
Speaker 1: it to the case. And then the case is obviously

284
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 1: attached to the block. All right, So let's let's check

285
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:18,640
Speaker 1: ground there. Let's voltage drop the ground and then for

286
00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:22,000
Speaker 1: that conversation, you know, do we have a problem somewhere

287
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:25,080
Speaker 1: else with the ground in the engine compartment if we

288
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:26,960
Speaker 1: ran if if we think it's the ground that we

289
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:29,040
Speaker 1: ran an auxiliary ground from the engine block right to

290
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:34,240
Speaker 1: the negative battery post, does that make the compressor work

291
00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:38,040
Speaker 1: all right, But I I think, you know, if we

292
00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:41,040
Speaker 1: want to extrapulate this out a little bit and look

293
00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:44,600
Speaker 1: a little bit further, if we make the assumption, because

294
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:47,360
Speaker 1: you've already you know, the compressor turns out to be good,

295
00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:50,520
Speaker 1: all right? If all right, I've got a great new

296
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:53,760
Speaker 1: part story coming up this hour. If it turns out

297
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 1: to be good and the ground is good, then we've

298
00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 1: got to work our way back up. We probably won't

299
00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:02,360
Speaker 1: have power down to the compressor. We've got to take

300
00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:06,760
Speaker 1: a look at the A C thermostat all right, and

301
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:09,120
Speaker 1: work our way backwards. You have a wiring diagram for

302
00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:12,160
Speaker 1: this gym, yes, from all data. I'm looking at it

303
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:14,480
Speaker 1: as we speak, Okay, because I would just you know,

304
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:17,400
Speaker 1: the wiring diagrams of the road map. I would just

305
00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:20,240
Speaker 1: I would just follow my way down and and and

306
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:22,400
Speaker 1: see how if this matters. Because with a v o

307
00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:24,920
Speaker 1: M ten dollar v o M, I measured the ground

308
00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:28,040
Speaker 1: point of the relay to the screw holding the relay,

309
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:32,400
Speaker 1: um uh you know, relay case, and I measure seven homes.

310
00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:36,040
Speaker 1: But you know that's with a ten dollar b O M. Well, yeah,

311
00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:38,200
Speaker 1: and I'm not Yeah, I don't know if I would

312
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:40,040
Speaker 1: I don't know if I would, I'd want to see

313
00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:41,840
Speaker 1: that resistance is good, but I want to see it.

314
00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:43,120
Speaker 1: I want to see it at the point of failure.

315
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:45,480
Speaker 1: I want to look at voltage. I want to see

316
00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:49,800
Speaker 1: it working. I've I've had resistance cheat me too many times. Um,

317
00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 1: you know, and something something. Listen here, I'll tell you, Okay,

318
00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:54,840
Speaker 1: I'll tell you the story now. So I had an

319
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:58,880
Speaker 1: OA tahoe that had a wheelbearing issue. This week. We

320
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 1: put a brand new bearing in it right out of

321
00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:05,280
Speaker 1: General Motors and FW three because it had lateral rock.

322
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:09,240
Speaker 1: The bearing was just worn out and put it, you know,

323
00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:11,960
Speaker 1: brand new GM wheel bearing in it. Nothing else was

324
00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:14,960
Speaker 1: wrong with the vehicle. Got in the vehicle, started it up,

325
00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:17,480
Speaker 1: pulled it three ft out the garage door. The abs

326
00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:20,400
Speaker 1: and traction control lights popped on. Well, gee, I broke

327
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:23,360
Speaker 1: the truck. Now what happened? Pulled it back in, that is,

328
00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:26,680
Speaker 1: everything plugged in. Everything's plugged in. Did the same thing

329
00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:30,800
Speaker 1: as you home tested the bearing reads, you know, read

330
00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:33,080
Speaker 1: the exact same thing as the old bearing. The resistance

331
00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:37,440
Speaker 1: value was correct, all right, you know, plugged in the

332
00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:41,760
Speaker 1: old bearing and just plugged it in and the light

333
00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:45,800
Speaker 1: went out. Jumped across the circuit going back on the

334
00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:48,120
Speaker 1: harness side. The light was out at actually well it

335
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:49,920
Speaker 1: actually the lights stayed on. It set a fold code

336
00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:52,000
Speaker 1: for a short circuit, so I knew the computer was

337
00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:56,360
Speaker 1: capable of seeing response. All right, So here's a case

338
00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:59,720
Speaker 1: where resistance values were good. Um, I couldn't get a

339
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 1: sign a l out of it. And wait the story

340
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:04,680
Speaker 1: gets better. Uh you know, but I couldn't actually get

341
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:06,480
Speaker 1: it to do any work. So it was late. It

342
00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:09,320
Speaker 1: was like ten to five on Wednesday night. I said,

343
00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:11,040
Speaker 1: you know what, we'll deal with this. On Thursday called

344
00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:12,760
Speaker 1: the customer said, listen, I'm not sure what's going on.

345
00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:14,960
Speaker 1: Da da da da. We'll deal with the Thursday morning

346
00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:16,840
Speaker 1: came in Thursday morning. Do you know, I started that

347
00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:18,119
Speaker 1: truck up, pulled it out of the bay of the

348
00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:20,199
Speaker 1: light was out, the truck was picked, the truck was fixed.

349
00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:26,879
Speaker 1: You know, electrical stuff does funny things. And uh, you know,

350
00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:31,040
Speaker 1: resistance is sometimes I I fall and die on resistance

351
00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:34,120
Speaker 1: because that's the only thing I can test. But if

352
00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:36,560
Speaker 1: I can test something a different way, if I can test,

353
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:39,280
Speaker 1: you know, if resistance passes, but I can prove voltage

354
00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:42,479
Speaker 1: being incorrect because here's a case where resistance was good.

355
00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:44,520
Speaker 1: I had no a C voltage signal output. I had

356
00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:47,960
Speaker 1: no output signal on that bearing. So you know my

357
00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:50,600
Speaker 1: point is, sometimes resistance isn't the be all and end all.

358
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:52,920
Speaker 1: But I get what you're doing. I really do. By

359
00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:54,680
Speaker 1: the way I did, I changed the new bearing. I

360
00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:56,440
Speaker 1: put another new bearing in it and sent it down

361
00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 1: the road because I you know, I couldn't trust it.

362
00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:04,240
Speaker 1: Um So, but one more question from the schematic, and

363
00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:07,040
Speaker 1: that is the pressure switch. I'm getting the right voltage

364
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:09,439
Speaker 1: down from the pressure switch, which you know gives me

365
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:13,240
Speaker 1: the voltage um on one side of the relay switch.

366
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:18,000
Speaker 1: That's it. That's their team point six. Okay, I'll tell

367
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:19,959
Speaker 1: you what. Yeah, let's not let's not run away from

368
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:21,880
Speaker 1: this gym. Stay right where we are. Let me pull

369
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:23,720
Speaker 1: over and take this pause, and we'll pick it up

370
00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:25,040
Speaker 1: from this and we'll just we'll just be a couple

371
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:27,159
Speaker 1: of minutes when we come back, and we'll get to

372
00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:29,000
Speaker 1: some more information. I'm on a naming. The car doctor

373
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:59,320
Speaker 1: will be back right after this. Zero zero. Don't go away.

374
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:02,680
Speaker 1: For the best in car advice, give Ron a call

375
00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:07,200
Speaker 1: eight by five zero nine nine zero zero. Now back

376
00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:10,200
Speaker 1: to Ron. Hey, let's get over back to Jim. Jim,

377
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:13,160
Speaker 1: you're still there, sir, Let me ask Let me ask

378
00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:15,520
Speaker 1: you this question. When when the compressor doesn't come on,

379
00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:17,720
Speaker 1: we're talking about is oh three super If you those

380
00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:19,800
Speaker 1: of you just tuning in with an erratic, they see

381
00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:22,520
Speaker 1: compressor when the engine when the compressor doesn't come on,

382
00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:25,879
Speaker 1: there's a blue red wire at the pressure switch. Correct,

383
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:32,199
Speaker 1: blue red wire. Um we try to find that at

384
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:36,320
Speaker 1: the pressure switch. If you ground that, does the compressor

385
00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:41,680
Speaker 1: clutch come on? I have not tried that, all right,

386
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:45,159
Speaker 1: because that would be the trigger, that would be that

387
00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:49,800
Speaker 1: would be the state of go for the um uh

388
00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:56,399
Speaker 1: for the uh um uh compressor. You said a blue, white,

389
00:19:56,760 --> 00:20:00,879
Speaker 1: blue red. I believe a blue red, if memory serves

390
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:03,520
Speaker 1: me correct, you may not be looking at the same

391
00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:07,439
Speaker 1: drawing because I'm seeing green orange, blue. Excuse me, brown? Yellow?

392
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:10,440
Speaker 1: Is this an automatic? Is this an automatic? Or Emmanuel

393
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:14,960
Speaker 1: say this is auto? Okay, I got I got the

394
00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:20,920
Speaker 1: wrong picture in my head. Asked me your question. Um well,

395
00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:22,840
Speaker 1: I was just wanting to tell you that, you know,

396
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:25,600
Speaker 1: I see that there's a completion that has to happen

397
00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:29,159
Speaker 1: from the pressure switched down to one side of the coil,

398
00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:31,840
Speaker 1: and I do have thirteen point five bolts down at

399
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:34,680
Speaker 1: the coil, so the pressure switches getting the voltage down there.

400
00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:37,760
Speaker 1: That was my point. Okay, But isn't that a blue

401
00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:41,400
Speaker 1: wire at the compressor when we see me that comes

402
00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:44,800
Speaker 1: down right, that goes down to the to feed the

403
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:49,200
Speaker 1: are we talking? We're talking about the compressor clutch coil, right? Okay, Yes,

404
00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:53,240
Speaker 1: that's a blue water. It's listed as L in this gomatic.

405
00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:58,400
Speaker 1: Whatever is blue? Je je Japanese don't say blue, they

406
00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:02,480
Speaker 1: they they Jeff, Japanese wiring diagrams all treat L is

407
00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:06,040
Speaker 1: blue for some reason. I I believe that's what I

408
00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:07,639
Speaker 1: learned years ago, and I believe it's still to be

409
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:10,320
Speaker 1: correct because there is no color L. And I'm sorry.

410
00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:13,800
Speaker 1: The reason is because blue and black is interchangeable. So

411
00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:19,120
Speaker 1: black be is black and hell is blue. Don't don't

412
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:23,600
Speaker 1: ask me why you're saying we again, um, now, stay

413
00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:25,000
Speaker 1: off of that, because that's that if you have an

414
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:27,080
Speaker 1: automatic system. I got a different diagram in my head.

415
00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:30,439
Speaker 1: So but let's let's go backwards. If if when the

416
00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:33,640
Speaker 1: compressor doesn't work, here's what I want to know. When

417
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:36,359
Speaker 1: the compressor doesn't work, do I have voltage on that

418
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:42,879
Speaker 1: blue wire at the compressor. It's that simple, all right.

419
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:46,480
Speaker 1: If if I've got, if you've got, and that's the

420
00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:49,560
Speaker 1: that blue wire coming out of the relay, that's the

421
00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:51,879
Speaker 1: you know when the relays tripped, because you said the

422
00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:56,840
Speaker 1: relay was tripped, right, Well, I'm saying if I reset

423
00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:59,760
Speaker 1: the relay, I get the compressor back. Okay, But didn't

424
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:01,800
Speaker 1: you say you measured voltage at the relay and you

425
00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:04,480
Speaker 1: had you had you had signaled through and across and

426
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:08,520
Speaker 1: the relay was activated and the compressor didn't come on. Yes,

427
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:12,200
Speaker 1: I have thirteen point six down from the voltage supply,

428
00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:14,560
Speaker 1: and I have thirteen point six down from the pressor switch,

429
00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:17,399
Speaker 1: and I have a low from the computer controlled you know,

430
00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:20,159
Speaker 1: no voltage from the computer control, which would seem to

431
00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:23,000
Speaker 1: energize the coil. Right, so the coil is energized. That

432
00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:26,280
Speaker 1: blue feed out of the relay, that blue wire out

433
00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:28,760
Speaker 1: of the relay doesn't have doesn't have you know, charging

434
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,320
Speaker 1: system voltage on it, thirteen point five, thirteen point eight

435
00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:35,479
Speaker 1: whatever at the compressor. I haven't done that. Yeah, at

436
00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:39,720
Speaker 1: the compressor or at the relay, you know which, whichever way. Now,

437
00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:42,000
Speaker 1: if you don't have it at the compressor, then go

438
00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:44,040
Speaker 1: back up to the relay, find it in the harness.

439
00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:46,120
Speaker 1: Do you have thirteen point eight coming out of the

440
00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:48,919
Speaker 1: coming out of the relay that blue wires the feed

441
00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:53,159
Speaker 1: all right? Um, so if if the relays, if the

442
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:56,320
Speaker 1: relay is truly energized, we don't care about the rest

443
00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:58,560
Speaker 1: of the circuit. We don't care about the thermostatic switch,

444
00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:00,639
Speaker 1: we don't care about the pressure switch, we don't care

445
00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:04,159
Speaker 1: about anything else. The relays on. If the relays on

446
00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 1: and energized and closed and completed, that blue wire's gotta

447
00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:11,360
Speaker 1: be hot, or you've got a connection issue either out

448
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:15,040
Speaker 1: of the relay box or broken wire inside the harness.

449
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:20,160
Speaker 1: At that wire, all right, now, I would own now,

450
00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:23,720
Speaker 1: I would own that wire, all right now. I would

451
00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:25,960
Speaker 1: come back to that blue wire in the relay box,

452
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:29,040
Speaker 1: go down to the compressor, unplugged at the compressor, OHM

453
00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:32,240
Speaker 1: across that wire, and I should have almost zero resistance.

454
00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:36,439
Speaker 1: I should have a complete solid circuit, all right. And

455
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:38,760
Speaker 1: then if I had any doubt, then I would put

456
00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:41,639
Speaker 1: here's a case where here's a case where you know,

457
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:43,040
Speaker 1: we could try this too. If you want to have

458
00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:45,439
Speaker 1: some fun, all right, you got do you have an

459
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:49,760
Speaker 1: old headlight lying around. Go get an old headlight, an

460
00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:52,879
Speaker 1: old square lamp, headlamp from an old seventies car or

461
00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:56,800
Speaker 1: an eighties vehicle. Right wire it up so that the

462
00:23:56,840 --> 00:24:00,040
Speaker 1: A so that blue wire at the compressor disconnected, and

463
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:04,960
Speaker 1: a set of jumpers power the headlight. Okay, when that?

464
00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:07,040
Speaker 1: When that? When you turn on the A C switch,

465
00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:10,160
Speaker 1: that headlights should light, if you you know, power one's

466
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:12,640
Speaker 1: power to the blue wire ground the other side. When

467
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:15,680
Speaker 1: it doesn't work, if your headlight lights. I hate to

468
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:18,639
Speaker 1: tell you. You You know what new, you know what new means.

469
00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:24,679
Speaker 1: And unfortunately that's right back where you are. Um you know,

470
00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:28,480
Speaker 1: don't don't get hung and I'm not saying you are,

471
00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:31,359
Speaker 1: but I just want to be clear. Don't get hung on. Hey,

472
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:34,240
Speaker 1: this is how the circuits supposed to work. Take every

473
00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:37,440
Speaker 1: component out of the car and and make them work

474
00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:39,960
Speaker 1: or not work on the bench or in your head.

475
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:42,520
Speaker 1: How would you test it if you didn't have a diagram,

476
00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:44,440
Speaker 1: and you didn't have the car in front of you,

477
00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:46,760
Speaker 1: and I just gave you. I gave you a compressor,

478
00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:49,040
Speaker 1: a relay, and a switch. How would you test each

479
00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:53,159
Speaker 1: component to see if they worked? And that's you know,

480
00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:55,120
Speaker 1: that's what you're gonna do right here. If you've got

481
00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:58,800
Speaker 1: power to relay that blue wire is hot compressor's gonna work,

482
00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:02,560
Speaker 1: or you're missing ground. That's the only thing that's there. Yea,

483
00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:07,440
Speaker 1: all right, that makes sense. All right? Take my email.

484
00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:10,600
Speaker 1: You got my email Ron at Car Doctor Show dot com.

485
00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:13,440
Speaker 1: All right, you got a question? You call me? Are

486
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:15,520
Speaker 1: you email me? All right? Jim, let me know what happens,

487
00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:19,560
Speaker 1: all right, brother, My pleasure, Um, my pleasure, absolutely, Um.

488
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:22,040
Speaker 1: Let's get over and talk to really Tom. It's not

489
00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:25,240
Speaker 1: a Willis Coop. It's a Willie's coup ted helped me.

490
00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:27,320
Speaker 1: I've got a non hot rod guy on the phone today,

491
00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 1: so he thinks it's a Willis COOPR. It's a Willie.

492
00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:33,160
Speaker 1: I know exactly what this is. What are we trying

493
00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:35,680
Speaker 1: to put in this thing? All right? I'm putting a

494
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:39,920
Speaker 1: hundred Dowick supercharge motor. And I started with the four

495
00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:41,560
Speaker 1: O nine. It was just too big. It was just

496
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:44,080
Speaker 1: I've been working on this thing for the last forty years,

497
00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:47,760
Speaker 1: off and on. I'm gonna get it going absolutely anyway.

498
00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:50,879
Speaker 1: I got the hundred motor in it, and then I

499
00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:55,160
Speaker 1: bought a transmission adam, a Camaro which used the three

500
00:25:55,160 --> 00:26:00,240
Speaker 1: point eight motor but non supercharged, and everything worked, I mean,

501
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:04,600
Speaker 1: the starter bolts up, flywheel transmission, everything works. I got

502
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:08,080
Speaker 1: the motor running, and uh that's a kind of long story,

503
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:11,160
Speaker 1: but anyway, I got it running, and I'm using the

504
00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:14,439
Speaker 1: the computer out of the front wheel drive car. I

505
00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:17,240
Speaker 1: had it reflashed and they took the VAT system out

506
00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:21,960
Speaker 1: of it, and uh, I think it's been set up

507
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:24,600
Speaker 1: for the rear wheel drive transmission, but I'm not sure.

508
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:29,000
Speaker 1: So my my question is, you know, the it's got

509
00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:32,000
Speaker 1: like the pin connector, you know, the connector for the

510
00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:34,439
Speaker 1: transmission is the same for the front wheel drive and

511
00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:38,560
Speaker 1: the rear wheel drive. The front wheel drive uses I

512
00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:42,600
Speaker 1: think one more wire. I think it uses fourteen wires

513
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:46,400
Speaker 1: and the rear wheel drive uses thirteen wires. But all

514
00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:50,800
Speaker 1: the functions on the pens are the same until you

515
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:53,560
Speaker 1: get down to the to the like the last four

516
00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:58,000
Speaker 1: and uh, you know, in other words, kind of run

517
00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:01,720
Speaker 1: the front wheel drive computer with this rear wheel drive

518
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:04,440
Speaker 1: transmission or am I just gonna have to put it together?

519
00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:08,720
Speaker 1: And see here's why I don't think you can. All right,

520
00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:11,960
Speaker 1: And well, I'll tell you what I gotta ask you

521
00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:13,679
Speaker 1: to stay put because I I gotta pull over and

522
00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:15,320
Speaker 1: take this pause. When I come back, i'll tell you

523
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:17,520
Speaker 1: why I don't think you can. I'm run any in

524
00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:27,880
Speaker 1: the car Doctor will return right after this. Welcome back

525
00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:29,399
Speaker 1: on any of the car Doc. Let's go over and

526
00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:31,639
Speaker 1: talk to back to Ted Ted Springfield deal and I Ted,

527
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:34,679
Speaker 1: you're still there, sir. The reason I don't think that

528
00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:37,199
Speaker 1: will work using the rear wheel drive computer in the

529
00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:39,440
Speaker 1: or the front wheel drive computer in the re whel

530
00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:44,000
Speaker 1: drive trans is because in my mind, if it could

531
00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:48,080
Speaker 1: be done by a simple software change, then why didn't

532
00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:51,000
Speaker 1: GM do it? And they would have saved money on

533
00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:55,440
Speaker 1: the processor. So the right answer, I think is unless

534
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:58,560
Speaker 1: you can identify each and every wire and what they

535
00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:01,600
Speaker 1: were doing and then compared to what you you've got,

536
00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:04,480
Speaker 1: I don't know that it will work, but let me

537
00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:07,280
Speaker 1: ask you this question, and listen. I really admire what

538
00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:09,160
Speaker 1: you're doing. I think it's gonna be cool when you're done,

539
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:12,520
Speaker 1: you know, I'll tell you. And I really like your

540
00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:14,439
Speaker 1: show too. You do a great job. Thank you, sir.

541
00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:16,400
Speaker 1: And I'm glad you're an old school guy too, because

542
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:19,760
Speaker 1: I'm an old guy too, and and you know, working

543
00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:23,280
Speaker 1: on old cars for years, and with carburetors and points

544
00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:25,960
Speaker 1: and you know this this this late model stuff you

545
00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:28,760
Speaker 1: understand a lot more nights. Well, it's you know what

546
00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:30,679
Speaker 1: I was. I was very fortunate. I was brought up

547
00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:32,720
Speaker 1: on carburetors and points. And then at the right time,

548
00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:35,760
Speaker 1: somebody came up as a new stuff came along. Somebody said, man,

549
00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:37,119
Speaker 1: nobody else wants to go do you want to go

550
00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:39,760
Speaker 1: to school? And I went, okay, you know, it's like,

551
00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,880
Speaker 1: what do I know? I you know, so it just

552
00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:45,080
Speaker 1: kind of worked. Um. I was never afraid to take

553
00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:48,360
Speaker 1: education in my life, never once. But you know, I

554
00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:50,800
Speaker 1: would look at either breakdown what those wires are doing

555
00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:56,520
Speaker 1: wire by wire or you know sometimes I always think

556
00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:59,440
Speaker 1: about the hot rods. And you know, I had I

557
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:02,000
Speaker 1: had a very her friend who's passed now, but Richie

558
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:05,360
Speaker 1: had a thirty nine Ford and we put a four

559
00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:08,720
Speaker 1: nine big block, you know, a real four nine Ford

560
00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:11,200
Speaker 1: motor in it, you know. And and that's a story

561
00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:14,720
Speaker 1: into itself. He he was actually working dropping a car

562
00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:17,120
Speaker 1: off at somebody's house that he had repaired, and he

563
00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:18,920
Speaker 1: was walking out of the garage and he's in the

564
00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:20,720
Speaker 1: corner of the garage e spot of this fourth twenty

565
00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:23,640
Speaker 1: nine bear blocks sitting there on the you know, and

566
00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:25,800
Speaker 1: it was the it was the kid's father or something.

567
00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:27,840
Speaker 1: I mean, it was a whole long story and the kid, yeah,

568
00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:29,680
Speaker 1: I got all these parts of my dad's old Ford,

569
00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:32,040
Speaker 1: and uh, you know, they were trying to get rid

570
00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:33,800
Speaker 1: of it and sell it. They didn't realize what it was.

571
00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:35,480
Speaker 1: And Richie explained it all to him and they said,

572
00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:37,800
Speaker 1: well listen, and I think they basically gave it to him.

573
00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:40,240
Speaker 1: They knew it was valuable, but they were like, listen,

574
00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:41,840
Speaker 1: just just take it. We want to see somebody put

575
00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:43,280
Speaker 1: good us to it that would be happy. It was

576
00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:45,280
Speaker 1: one of those stories, uh you know, but it was

577
00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:46,959
Speaker 1: a real four twenty nine. It was the coolest thing.

578
00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:49,760
Speaker 1: And he managed to stuff this thing into a into

579
00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:51,720
Speaker 1: a thirty nine Ford kind of like what you're doing,

580
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:53,480
Speaker 1: all right, you know. We we put a lot of

581
00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:55,200
Speaker 1: butter and looked up the sides and jumped on it

582
00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:57,600
Speaker 1: and it popped down. But I got it. I got

583
00:29:57,600 --> 00:29:59,680
Speaker 1: the motor and no problem, and I got a running

584
00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:02,959
Speaker 1: but you know that's going, and I got the transmission

585
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:04,920
Speaker 1: matter and everything. But you know, I just want to

586
00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:08,120
Speaker 1: it runs. But will it run down the road? Right, Well,

587
00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:10,640
Speaker 1: will it run down the road reliably is the other question.

588
00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:13,720
Speaker 1: And what Richie ended up doing was he just contacted

589
00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:17,040
Speaker 1: one of the wiring harness manufacturers and they they actually

590
00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:19,480
Speaker 1: built him a customed harness to go with what the

591
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:21,360
Speaker 1: computer was that he said, he said, I'm gonna use

592
00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:23,840
Speaker 1: this computer because he put electronic, he put E f

593
00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:27,120
Speaker 1: I fuel injection on it, and you know, this is

594
00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:30,000
Speaker 1: what I'm gonna do. Can you build something to go

595
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:33,880
Speaker 1: with that? And they did, And you know, I know

596
00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:36,800
Speaker 1: we're both old school guys, ted, but you know what,

597
00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:38,479
Speaker 1: there are moments that we've got to count. If we're

598
00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:41,400
Speaker 1: gonna use a computer involvement here, then why can't we

599
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:43,680
Speaker 1: go to like you know, Holly or edel Brock or

600
00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:45,520
Speaker 1: Painless or any one or the other half a dozen

601
00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:50,000
Speaker 1: companies out there and see who's got the best package. Well, actually,

602
00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:52,360
Speaker 1: the wiring harness that I got was made by Painless,

603
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:57,120
Speaker 1: thet Painless the paracuter cancer sprinkle here about five six

604
00:30:57,200 --> 00:30:58,880
Speaker 1: years ago. And I talked to him. They don't make

605
00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:02,080
Speaker 1: a wiring horns for the motor, but the guy that

606
00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:05,040
Speaker 1: I talked to, he had made a custom one for

607
00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:07,800
Speaker 1: a guy in Texas that put it in a front

608
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:11,360
Speaker 1: wheel drive Lamborghini kit car and it worked fine. But

609
00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:13,800
Speaker 1: he said, he said, it was never designed for a

610
00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:16,320
Speaker 1: rear wheel drive. But he said, at least it would

611
00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:18,360
Speaker 1: run the motor. He said, you might be able to,

612
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:21,360
Speaker 1: you know, be able to modify it. So so anyway,

613
00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:24,960
Speaker 1: that's where I am. But but so and but you

614
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:28,200
Speaker 1: get on YouTube and they're putting them in Camaros. They're

615
00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:31,440
Speaker 1: putting this motor in Camaros and other vehicles and they

616
00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:34,600
Speaker 1: run and they show them running them, but they never

617
00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:37,640
Speaker 1: tell you how they do it. And uh, in some

618
00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:42,200
Speaker 1: cases they're actually shifting the transmission with uh, you know,

619
00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:45,400
Speaker 1: separate switches. You know, they're just doing a manually switching

620
00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:48,120
Speaker 1: the you know, shifting the transmission from first or second

621
00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:50,640
Speaker 1: to third and then locking up the computer. I mean

622
00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:56,760
Speaker 1: they here's here's here's my parting thought. I would be curious, okay,

623
00:31:56,760 --> 00:32:00,959
Speaker 1: because some of the GM vehicles engines transmissions the trans

624
00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:04,120
Speaker 1: control was built into the PCM, and then some of

625
00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:07,720
Speaker 1: the vehicles the trans control was a separate module. So

626
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:10,360
Speaker 1: if we go on the assumption that your PCM, your

627
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:14,280
Speaker 1: engine controller has trans control function in it, if we

628
00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:17,240
Speaker 1: could identify what what vehicle that came out of and

629
00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:20,120
Speaker 1: then get onto old data or Mitchell and do you know,

630
00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:22,200
Speaker 1: get a pin out. You know, they'll they'll show you

631
00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:28,959
Speaker 1: if there's was the three connectors on that PCM TED two.

632
00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:35,280
Speaker 1: So they'll they'll give you a wire pin out of

633
00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:39,160
Speaker 1: what each and every wire does that. I've got the manual,

634
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:41,000
Speaker 1: you know. Okay, if you can do that and then

635
00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:44,240
Speaker 1: go backwards against your wiring harness the four that you're

636
00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:46,760
Speaker 1: missing or the four that you have extra of just

637
00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:49,800
Speaker 1: what are they for? If they're to control a charcoal

638
00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:56,640
Speaker 1: canister ventvalve? Who cares? Right, I've done that, but well

639
00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:58,400
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what hold that hold that? For instance,

640
00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:00,560
Speaker 1: let me pull over and take this pause or Tony's

641
00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:02,120
Speaker 1: gonna yell at me. I'll be right back. I'm running

642
00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:07,960
Speaker 1: any of the car. Doctor, don't go anywhere. She's really

643
00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:13,640
Speaker 1: find my phone, eyes, she's real find my phone, my fault.

644
00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:19,040
Speaker 1: Welcome back, hey, Ted. We thought we'd do that for

645
00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:20,520
Speaker 1: you to give you a reminiscent of what could have

646
00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:26,080
Speaker 1: been heading up with there or well here you go,

647
00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:28,280
Speaker 1: um so again I finish your thought. We got about

648
00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:32,200
Speaker 1: two minutes. Okay, Uh, that's okay, don't worry about it.

649
00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:35,320
Speaker 1: I appreciate your help. I just wondered if the pressures,

650
00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:38,400
Speaker 1: you know, maybe you're different in the in the transmissions,

651
00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:40,800
Speaker 1: maybe that would cause them not to shift right, you know,

652
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:42,840
Speaker 1: they could you could have all kinds of problems. Well,

653
00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:44,080
Speaker 1: I don't know if I would, I don't know if

654
00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:46,120
Speaker 1: I would think about it like that, I would really

655
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:49,400
Speaker 1: go along the idea of what triggers what all? Right,

656
00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:52,720
Speaker 1: If we can trigger the solenoids, then internal pressures are

657
00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:55,560
Speaker 1: internal in the trans that's got computer's got nothing to

658
00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:58,880
Speaker 1: do with that computer is powering ground apply, you know,

659
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:03,280
Speaker 1: just control. It's it's the It's still a mechanical trans

660
00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:07,400
Speaker 1: in the sense of what it's going to do internally. Now,

661
00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:11,280
Speaker 1: perhaps that model your transmission has an extra wire because

662
00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:14,400
Speaker 1: it's it's gonna change the way the converter clutch is

663
00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:17,600
Speaker 1: gonna apply something different than what that computer works. So

664
00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:20,960
Speaker 1: you know, when you start to marry these things, you

665
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:23,520
Speaker 1: know you've really you're back to, Okay, what are the

666
00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:26,280
Speaker 1: four extra wires do or don't do? What are we missing?

667
00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:28,839
Speaker 1: And you know that's why I that's why I start

668
00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:31,879
Speaker 1: to look at wiring harnesses. You know, sometimes I will

669
00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:33,640
Speaker 1: think about what I'm doing a hot rod. I'll do

670
00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:38,040
Speaker 1: two wiring harnesses, one for ignition, you know, make the

671
00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:42,400
Speaker 1: ignition system work, or you know, one for starting and cranking,

672
00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:45,280
Speaker 1: and then the other one will do ignition, fuel delivery

673
00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:48,200
Speaker 1: and then trans and can I tie it all together

674
00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:51,600
Speaker 1: as simply as possible. Um, you may get what you

675
00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:55,440
Speaker 1: have to work, but you may find that you're banging

676
00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:57,440
Speaker 1: your head against the wall and you're gonna get a flathead,

677
00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:00,440
Speaker 1: and you may have to, you know, maybe change one

678
00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:03,319
Speaker 1: or two or three components. Here's how I'd attack it.

679
00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:08,719
Speaker 1: Identify what you've got, identify what you're missing, and then

680
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:11,800
Speaker 1: decide do you need those to make this function? Maybe

681
00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:14,000
Speaker 1: you don't, And then at least you can go forward

682
00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:15,799
Speaker 1: with it one way or another, with what you've got

683
00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:18,239
Speaker 1: or by changing something. Keep me posted. I'm on an

684
00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:21,600
Speaker 1: inning of the Car Doctor, reminding you good mechanics aren't expensive,

685
00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:23,080
Speaker 1: They're placeless. Let's see you
