And it's uh, 40 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 1: it's it's there's more interest in fixing a car than 41 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 1: there is in in in buying a new one. Right now, 42 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 1: it seems, um, you know, it's it's a very end 43 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:12,519 Speaker 1: it's a very trending, changing marketplace. So what does a 44 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:14,800 Speaker 1: guy like me do during a week when he's not working. 45 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 1: I went to the shop four days out of five, 46 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:21,400 Speaker 1: UM locked the gate, you know, closed the gate, closed 47 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 1: the front door, and pulled the shades down and clean 48 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:26,920 Speaker 1: the place up, try to get it ready for the 49 00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:30,240 Speaker 1: new year. And it's funny the things you go through 50 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 1: that you find. UM. You know, I love looking through 51 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,480 Speaker 1: the pile of tools that you no longer use that 52 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:43,080 Speaker 1: somehow they you know, the the traditional wrenches, screw drivers, 53 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 1: and and sockets to all stay the same, but the 54 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:49,360 Speaker 1: electronic wonders that somehow move closer and closer to the 55 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:52,119 Speaker 1: edge of the shop into the dustbins of time as 56 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 1: they as they settle into their position where they're going 57 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: to sit forever and always, as they, you know, wait 58 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:01,080 Speaker 1: for the next chance to be used. And I looked 59 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:03,200 Speaker 1: at the things that are now in the pile of 60 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 1: g Do I throw it out or do I keep it? 61 00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:08,240 Speaker 1: I've got a copy of UM. I've got a laptop 62 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 1: that's got a dedicated copy of Honda scan tool software 63 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 1: on it. Manufacturers software. We don't use it. UM, haven't 64 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:17,680 Speaker 1: used it in two years. It ran its life for 65 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 1: probably a four year running, and Opus came along op 66 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 1: beside thes and they they now have factory level software 67 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:27,840 Speaker 1: on their tool. We don't need that laptop anymore, so 68 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 1: that goes in the pile one list thing in the cabinet. 69 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 1: You know, I looked at the Chrysler laptop, same thing. 70 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 1: I looked at the Forward laptop, same thing. You know, 71 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 1: as technology marches forward and updates us and gives us 72 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 1: the opportunity, and you know, you sit there and you 73 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 1: think about it from a business decision. You're you're taking 74 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 1: two five eight thousand dollars individual purchase products at one time, 75 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 1: you know collectively, well, I don't know, there's probably twelve 76 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 1: grants sitting there between those three laptops, and you know, 77 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 1: out they go, and you have to because hey, you've 78 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 1: got to make room for the newer stuff coming in, 79 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 1: because there's always something new coming in the door. And 80 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 1: number one number two. I find things like that tend 81 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 1: to clutter your mind. You know, you can't see the 82 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 1: forest for the trees because you're looking for you're looking 83 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 1: for something and you've got to look through five other 84 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 1: things to see it. So you've got to be organized. 85 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,080 Speaker 1: And I guess that's what I really like to be, 86 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 1: is to be organized and functional in the shop. You know, 87 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 1: it was it was an interesting moment too. I got 88 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 1: to work on some of the shop projects. I've got 89 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:36,159 Speaker 1: a I've got an older Toyota Tacoma that I'm piecing 90 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 1: together for someone, and I'm bringing it back from the 91 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 1: dead literally, And you know, you're taking apart this fifteen 92 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 1: year old Tacoma and you know, correcting the rust and 93 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:48,919 Speaker 1: correcting the things that went wrong with it over time 94 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 1: that no one ever maintained or no one ever saw. 95 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:55,800 Speaker 1: I got to use the inductive heater. We haven't an 96 00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:58,239 Speaker 1: electric conductive heater. You've seen them, or maybe you haven't 97 00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 1: seen them. They're they're worth taking a look at if 98 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 1: you're looking for a new tool for your home, if 99 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:04,279 Speaker 1: you're do it yourself, or if you're a shop and 100 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:06,040 Speaker 1: you're thinking, hey do I you know what's the next 101 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:09,200 Speaker 1: best thing? Um? You know, it's it's an electric torch 102 00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:11,839 Speaker 1: in a sense, right, it's it's I think it's safer 103 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 1: and it has it has its pluses, it has its 104 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 1: minuses versus using oxy as settle, you know, using a 105 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 1: set of tanks. Um. But I was able to take 106 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:23,600 Speaker 1: it and pick at I wanted to change the O two. 107 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:27,040 Speaker 1: There are two oxygen sensors and two air fuel sensors 108 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:30,960 Speaker 1: on this OH seven Tacoma and they were really rusted 109 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:33,160 Speaker 1: in place, and there was a fault code for one. 110 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 1: And you know, fifteen years old, there's a fault code 111 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 1: for one. There's gonna be a fault code for two. 112 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 1: And before you know what, you might as well do 113 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:41,599 Speaker 1: the four and get it over with because they're hundred 114 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:44,240 Speaker 1: and fifty thousand miles and fifteen years old. Why not. 115 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 1: But they were in a real bad spot, really bad spot. 116 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 1: Like I question whether Toyota ever really wanted you to 117 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 1: to to work on this at anyone given time, because 118 00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 1: you can't even get a torch in there where they are. 119 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 1: You could, but you might, you know, set the vehicle 120 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 1: on fire. Uh, and subsequently there's there's an issue there. 121 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:07,600 Speaker 1: We're trying not to burn the place down. And always 122 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 1: a good thought and it just took time. It was fun, 123 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 1: you know, I have to say it was fun. The 124 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 1: phone to ring, I could ignore it. There was there 125 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 1: wasn't too many people coming to the door. What is 126 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 1: it about that people come to the door. You hear knock, knock, knock. 127 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 1: Are you open? I don't know. You had to climb 128 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 1: pass the closed gate, the doors locked, the shades pulled down. 129 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:31,640 Speaker 1: What do you think you don't know I'm hiding. Um, 130 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 1: you know, I told one guy I wanted by the 131 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:34,920 Speaker 1: federal authorities, and I thought this would be a good 132 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:36,840 Speaker 1: place to hold up. You haven't seen anybody with guns 133 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:38,800 Speaker 1: walking around the building, have you. I think I looked 134 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:42,279 Speaker 1: at me and ran away. Um, you know, but it 135 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 1: was nice. I got to sit there and you know, 136 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:47,480 Speaker 1: take this Tacoma apart and took the better part of 137 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:49,840 Speaker 1: half a day to get all the old sensors out 138 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 1: and didn't break anything, which was a plus, and got 139 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:54,200 Speaker 1: them ready to go so I can order parts next 140 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:56,160 Speaker 1: week when the parts houses open again, because a lot 141 00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 1: of the parts houses were closed this week for inventory, 142 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:02,719 Speaker 1: which is another is you another reason we closed? And um, 143 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 1: you know, it's good to sit down and kind of 144 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:07,599 Speaker 1: recharge the batteries and uh, you know, pick it apart 145 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 1: like that, and then the last job of the day, 146 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 1: the last job of the week. About let's see, it's 147 00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 1: eight months ago. When did I buy the new plow truck? 148 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 1: May I've had a set of body moldings sitting on 149 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:22,600 Speaker 1: the back counter at the shop, and I wanted to 150 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 1: put these side body moldings on, you know, so if 151 00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 1: you open the door, it doesn't dent the door. So 152 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 1: I haven't had the time. And it was I tell 153 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 1: you what, that was probably the most rewarding job of 154 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 1: the week. To sit down with a lead pencil and 155 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 1: a ruler and my helper and together we we sat 156 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 1: there and measured it out and you know, measured at 157 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 1: seven and a half inches from the front of the 158 00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 1: bottom of the door, eight inches from the bottom of 159 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 1: the back of the door. Bring it up to the 160 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 1: belt line where the molding supposed to go. Clean it 161 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:54,800 Speaker 1: little preps, all clean it up, and then measure again, 162 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 1: measure twice, cut once as we were taught in high school. 163 00:07:57,760 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 1: And um, I got the body moldings on the truck 164 00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:02,240 Speaker 1: and got another piece of cardboard box off the front 165 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:04,800 Speaker 1: area up there in the parts area, which was always 166 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 1: a good thing. So for me, it was a rewarding week. 167 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 1: And I'm kind of looking forward to New Year's I'm 168 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:12,360 Speaker 1: hoping you are too. You know, there's there's a lot 169 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 1: of challenges, there's a lot of opportunities. There's a lot 170 00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 1: of things to look forward to. There's a lot of 171 00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 1: moments of Hey, my card does this, my card does that? 172 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 1: What's gonna take the fix? I. You know, we had 173 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 1: a great conversation with and no secret. Next weekend, we've 174 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:28,240 Speaker 1: got a great show for you. We've already got it done. 175 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:30,040 Speaker 1: We put it in the can, as we say, and 176 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:32,199 Speaker 1: we taped it this week midweek. I want you to 177 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:33,959 Speaker 1: know it's a tape show, but it's a fresh show. 178 00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 1: And we we've brought in three experts in the area 179 00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:43,040 Speaker 1: of electric vehicles to talk about training and the training 180 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 1: requirements and some of the issues and some of the 181 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 1: opportunities when it comes to electric vehicles, and you know, 182 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,760 Speaker 1: the things that we learned that you're gonna learn next week. 183 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:55,439 Speaker 1: And the audio in one of the first segments was 184 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 1: a little cock guy. We had some phone issues that 185 00:08:57,160 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 1: we got straightened out later on, so when you're listening 186 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 1: hanging there, you'll get pasted it after the first segment. 187 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:06,040 Speaker 1: But you know, it's just staggering the amount of technology 188 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 1: that's coming our way and the mathematics I was thinking. 189 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 1: I was thinking of my high school guidance counselor this week. 190 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 1: Who in seventy two math was one of my weaker subjects, 191 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 1: said well, you're not very good at math, so you know, 192 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 1: you're not real handy with your hands, so we can't 193 00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:24,559 Speaker 1: send it to wood shop because you'll cut your fingers off. 194 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:26,880 Speaker 1: You should go work on cars in the auto shop class, 195 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:29,040 Speaker 1: and I went, uh huh um, because you don't have 196 00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:32,440 Speaker 1: to be smart to fix cars, and uh, you know, surprise, 197 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:37,200 Speaker 1: uh um, you know. But math came into it because 198 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:40,280 Speaker 1: we were talking about kill a watt hours and the 199 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 1: empower rating of the battery and how long it takes 200 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 1: to charge and uh you know there's a clip in there. 201 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,920 Speaker 1: Dirk Fuchs from I Car brought it up about how 202 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 1: it's eighty hours to charge the average electric vehicle battery 203 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 1: on a standard charger, which kind of blew my mind. Um, yes, 204 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 1: it's eight hours overnight on a super charger at the 205 00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 1: cost of you know, three to five thousand dollars in 206 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:05,920 Speaker 1: the house. Plus well the house be able to support 207 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 1: that supercharger in terms of the electrical loads. So, uh, 208 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 1: next week's show. Not to get away from this week's show, 209 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,440 Speaker 1: we haven't finished it yet, but you want to stick 210 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:14,960 Speaker 1: around for that but I got to look ahead and 211 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 1: see into the future, and uh, it's bright. It's it's opportunity, 212 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 1: I think is the word that comes to my mind, 213 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,120 Speaker 1: because there's some challenges and there's some ways around it, 214 00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:25,720 Speaker 1: and together we're gonna help you fix it, because that's 215 00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:29,600 Speaker 1: what we do here at the Car Doctor zero. Let 216 00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:31,440 Speaker 1: me pull over and we'll take a pause. When we 217 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 1: come back, we'll we'll get going. So stay tuned. Hey, hey, 218 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:51,120 Speaker 1: happy New Year and welcome back or needing of the 219 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:53,319 Speaker 1: Car Doctor. Let's do A quick piece of email comes 220 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 1: to us from Doc Johnson. Hey, Ron, Happy New Year. 221 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:57,400 Speaker 1: I would say a long time listener here, but I'm 222 00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:00,240 Speaker 1: a forever listener from when you were on oh that 223 00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 1: radio station in New York. Mostly have to listen to 224 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:04,440 Speaker 1: podcasts now though, but thank you for all you do 225 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:07,679 Speaker 1: for everyone. I have a Dodge Ram five point two, 226 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:09,680 Speaker 1: my plow truck. I started it one day and drove 227 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 1: over by my shop to check over everything before I 228 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:14,240 Speaker 1: needed to plow. When I went back to use it, 229 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:16,320 Speaker 1: all it does is crank gott. I hate it when 230 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 1: this happens. There's no spark. Annoid light on the injector 231 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:22,120 Speaker 1: blinks one time fuel pressure and volume are good code 232 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:24,040 Speaker 1: for CAM sensor, but new one and no change. I 233 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,000 Speaker 1: am wired the distributor computer was fine. Not sure the 234 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 1: next move. Reading online seems very common problem, but no 235 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 1: common solutions. Thanks for your time. Happy New Year to Tom. Tom, 236 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:33,280 Speaker 1: somebody said happy New Year to you, by the way, 237 00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:35,320 Speaker 1: I'm passing that along and the rest of the crew 238 00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 1: love the show. Um, you know what, Doc, here's uh. Well, 239 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 1: you know I always talked about yet use annoyed light 240 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:45,560 Speaker 1: uh to check for an injector pulse. But here's a 241 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:48,360 Speaker 1: case where I'm gonna tell you to ignore it because 242 00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:50,880 Speaker 1: as far as I'm concerned, you've got no spark, no 243 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:55,480 Speaker 1: signal to the injector. All right, that one time pulse, Um, 244 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 1: I've seen that as an indicator that could be a 245 00:11:57,840 --> 00:11:59,960 Speaker 1: result of using annoid light. That could be a result 246 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 1: of the problem. So I'm gonna take this as a 247 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 1: no spark, no pulse, no injector pulse condition. So we've 248 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 1: got to go back to square one. First question I'd 249 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:11,199 Speaker 1: love to see is, you know, is the check engine 250 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,840 Speaker 1: light on on the dashboard all right? Does it light 251 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,920 Speaker 1: up showing you that the computer itself is awake all right? 252 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,079 Speaker 1: And able to respond. I'm sure it is, but I'm 253 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: just gonna mention you know we're gonna go steps one 254 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:24,000 Speaker 1: through ten with this, all right? Then I want to know, 255 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 1: because this is a plow truck. I caught that in 256 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 1: the email, what do the grounds look like on this vehicle? 257 00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 1: You know what what sort of rust and corrosion is 258 00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 1: there on this vehicle? And you know I'm gonna send 259 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 1: you in one of two directions. The first is I 260 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 1: want you to to get a wiring diagram and go through 261 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 1: power and ground to the PCM. Does it have everything 262 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:46,320 Speaker 1: it needs to wake up and to operate properly? And 263 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 1: you've got to go through all If there's multiple grounds, 264 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:51,840 Speaker 1: make sure they're all working. If there's multiple power inputs, 265 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 1: make sure they're all working, because it's possible that part 266 00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,160 Speaker 1: a portion of the PCM is awake, but not all 267 00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:02,000 Speaker 1: of it. All right, If powering grounds are good and 268 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:03,720 Speaker 1: you're able to read on a scan tool and the 269 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:06,559 Speaker 1: dashlights working, PCMs out of the picture for the moment, 270 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 1: I would just want to real quick. One of the 271 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:12,560 Speaker 1: things I would do is create another fault code. Oh, 272 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 1: I don't know, unplugged the throttle position sensor or unplugged 273 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:17,679 Speaker 1: the cool attempt censor, does it set a fault code 274 00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 1: for that? Is the computer able to be smart enough 275 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 1: to see a problem in another area. So again we're 276 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:29,040 Speaker 1: just verifying what's the computer capable of doing, trying to 277 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:32,200 Speaker 1: eliminate that out of the process. All right, we want 278 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:34,840 Speaker 1: to go through and make sure at the throttle position 279 00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 1: sensor we've got a five vault power supply on the 280 00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:43,319 Speaker 1: TPS line. It's a violet white wire. If it's less 281 00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 1: than four and a half vaults, I want you to 282 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 1: go through all three wire sensors such as the camp 283 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:52,480 Speaker 1: position sensor, the crank position sensor map, and the vehicle 284 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:54,920 Speaker 1: speed sensor. If you still have no five vaults or 285 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 1: enough more than a four and a half signal on 286 00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:59,000 Speaker 1: that UM, you want to look at the orange wire 287 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:01,200 Speaker 1: and the violet wire. You want to take a look 288 00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:05,120 Speaker 1: near the PCM connector. All right, it's on Pin thirty 289 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,840 Speaker 1: one is the orange and Pin seventeen is the violet white. 290 00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:10,319 Speaker 1: You want to see do you still have five vaults 291 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 1: coming out of the PCM. If you don't, you may 292 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:16,760 Speaker 1: have a bad PCM. This is this is a fairly 293 00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:19,320 Speaker 1: common issue when these vehicles fail. Now we could go 294 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 1: the other way, all right. We want to check for 295 00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 1: ground and signal going into the cam and the crank 296 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:28,440 Speaker 1: sensors and then if you have a scope, can you 297 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:31,280 Speaker 1: which I I You say shops, so I don't know 298 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:34,640 Speaker 1: if you're a repair shop or uh, you know if 299 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:37,440 Speaker 1: if if you're something else. But I would love to 300 00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 1: get a scope signal coming out of the cam and 301 00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:42,479 Speaker 1: the crank sensors to see what they're producing or not producing. 302 00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 1: And uh, you know what sort of signal do you 303 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 1: have because those two are critical in this case, you've 304 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 1: got fuel pressure, so we're either missing signal or we're 305 00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 1: missing a functional input um coming out of one of 306 00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:57,000 Speaker 1: the other two is cam and cranks, So we've got 307 00:14:57,240 --> 00:14:58,800 Speaker 1: we've got to take a look at that. So you know, 308 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 1: do those things And if you get a chance to 309 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:02,320 Speaker 1: call me, Dr be easier to talk to you on 310 00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:04,080 Speaker 1: the phone. But I'm just trying to get you information 311 00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 1: while I can here up on air. Hey Walter is 312 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:10,320 Speaker 1: riding in from Hawaii. Happy New Year, walt Ron. I 313 00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:13,040 Speaker 1: need to upgrade and modernize the headlights on my daily driver, 314 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 1: my nine camera. Could you help me with that? What 315 00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:18,200 Speaker 1: type of lights and how to install thanks Aloha, Walt Maui. 316 00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:21,160 Speaker 1: You know what, Walter, I think when we're talking headlights 317 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:23,280 Speaker 1: and upgrading headlights is a couple of things we've got 318 00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:26,560 Speaker 1: to address because it's about visibility, right, It's about being 319 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 1: able to see, and it's not just you know, what's 320 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 1: the brightest ball been there? Can I put a flamethrower 321 00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 1: in the front of the vehicle to help clear the road? 322 00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:38,520 Speaker 1: But you know, obviously what kind of shape of the 323 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:42,280 Speaker 1: headlights in are are the housing is clean? Are they clear? 324 00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 1: You know? Do they are they yellowed over? Is it 325 00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 1: time to do a headlamp restoration? And I would tell 326 00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:51,480 Speaker 1: you to consider doing a restoration before I talk about 327 00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:54,040 Speaker 1: replacing head lamps unless you're gonna put Toyota lamps on, 328 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:56,800 Speaker 1: which I don't know that they're still available for three 329 00:15:56,920 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 1: because I don't know. Some of the aftermarket headlamps aren't great. 330 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:03,600 Speaker 1: The way they refract the light, the way they aim 331 00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 1: the light, the way they do whatever they're supposed to 332 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 1: do with the light. It's not great. So I tend 333 00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:10,240 Speaker 1: to want to stay with an original headlamp if possible. 334 00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:13,320 Speaker 1: I see better results. But you know, part of the 335 00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 1: headlamp more visibility issue has to be to clean the 336 00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:19,360 Speaker 1: lamps and make sure the lenses are not yellow, to 337 00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:21,840 Speaker 1: be judgmental, take a good hard look. I know, Walter, 338 00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:24,160 Speaker 1: you and I are sort of in the same age group, 339 00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:25,840 Speaker 1: and we tend to squint a little at night, and 340 00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:28,560 Speaker 1: you know that's an issue. So we want to know that, 341 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:30,560 Speaker 1: you know, we can see what we're looking at. And 342 00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 1: then when it comes time to picking a bulb. You know, 343 00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:36,600 Speaker 1: Sylvan has got a great line of bulbs, and you 344 00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:39,320 Speaker 1: know you can go from their super high intensity stuff 345 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:41,960 Speaker 1: all the way down to a stock bulb. Remember this 346 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 1: my experiences. The brighter the bulb in some cases, the 347 00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:49,800 Speaker 1: shorter the life cycle, so you know you've got a 348 00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:53,240 Speaker 1: way the differences. I run standard bulbs in the majority 349 00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:57,120 Speaker 1: of my vehicles. My lenses are clear, and I think 350 00:16:57,120 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 1: the lens being clear issue is the bigger thing. Um, 351 00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:02,600 Speaker 1: I think one of them. I have the one upgrade, 352 00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:04,600 Speaker 1: one upgrade from stock at the Sylvania Ball but I 353 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:07,120 Speaker 1: don't remember the brand name it is, and they work 354 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:09,680 Speaker 1: really well. That's I believe in the ranger of the 355 00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 1: shop truck which has factory lamps in it. Um matter 356 00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:15,119 Speaker 1: of fact, that's how I know. I like factory lamps 357 00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:17,880 Speaker 1: so much because a good Oh I don't know, eight 358 00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:20,840 Speaker 1: nine years ago. Uh, the lamps are one of them cracked. 359 00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 1: Actually a rock hit the lamp and cracked it and 360 00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:25,480 Speaker 1: had a replacement put after market head lamps in it. It 361 00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 1: It was horrible. Uh, Fords weren't available at the time, 362 00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:30,560 Speaker 1: and I waited until Ford put them back in stock, 363 00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:33,280 Speaker 1: and now I have factory headlamps in it, or put 364 00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:36,320 Speaker 1: factory headlamps in it then at that time and made 365 00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:38,440 Speaker 1: quite the difference. So you know, I can't say enough 366 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:40,560 Speaker 1: about head lamps. And as long as we're talking about 367 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:44,400 Speaker 1: visibility and lights, um, I just want to mention how 368 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:47,639 Speaker 1: cleans the windshield inside and out of the car. I 369 00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:50,480 Speaker 1: know it's you, Walter, but for everyone else's benefit. Uh, 370 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 1: you'd be surprised how many people come into the shop 371 00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:54,679 Speaker 1: telling me, Hey, the head lamps are damn. I can't see. 372 00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:59,120 Speaker 1: We take out this thing called windex and we clean 373 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:00,879 Speaker 1: the inside of the glade as we clean the outside 374 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:02,640 Speaker 1: of the glass, giving back the car. Do nothing else. 375 00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:05,359 Speaker 1: They go, Hey, these new bulbs are great. Really, what'd 376 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 1: you do? I can't tell you. It's a secret, so 377 00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:13,680 Speaker 1: ten bucks or whatever. So I'm just kidding. Eight zero zero, 378 00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:17,800 Speaker 1: eight five zero zero. I'll Marningning the Car Doctor. I'll 379 00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:45,359 Speaker 1: be back right after this. Welcome back running of the 380 00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:48,359 Speaker 1: Car Doctor. Here. Eight five five zero zero is the 381 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:50,480 Speaker 1: phone number. Looking it over to Dave in Pennsylvania. Dave, 382 00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:54,960 Speaker 1: Welcome to The Car Doctor. Sir, how can I help? Hi? Yes, Hi, thanks. 383 00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:59,159 Speaker 1: I really appreciate your show, Thank you, thank you. I 384 00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:03,080 Speaker 1: had a question regarding these electric vehicles. UM, I don't 385 00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:06,439 Speaker 1: know if many batteries are in them. Um, you know 386 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 1: they have these battery packs and my function is there 387 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:15,080 Speaker 1: in series to the high voltage or is there an 388 00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:19,240 Speaker 1: issue if there's an accident you know that that mashes 389 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:26,000 Speaker 1: that that uh you know that battery pack up is there? 390 00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:30,399 Speaker 1: You know, is that a concern or is that something 391 00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:33,879 Speaker 1: that's you know, they've thought a lot about and protected 392 00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:38,880 Speaker 1: against that. Um, because I mean it seems like electric 393 00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:42,080 Speaker 1: cars are coming, whether we like it or not. And uh, 394 00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:45,560 Speaker 1: you know, of course a gas tank is it's not 395 00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:49,280 Speaker 1: a great thing to have sitting under your either. Um, 396 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:52,679 Speaker 1: but is that an issue? And you're in you're looking 397 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:55,320 Speaker 1: into this, Dave. You weren't in studio Wednesday night. We'll 398 00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 1: recorded next week's show where you because that topic comes 399 00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:02,400 Speaker 1: up from next for next week and um, without giving yeah, 400 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:05,560 Speaker 1: it's it's without without giving away too much of what 401 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:08,840 Speaker 1: we talked about, I'll say it like this. So you 402 00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 1: know your your your electric vehicles in a front end accident, 403 00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:19,080 Speaker 1: and understand the car battery weighs. My understanding the minimum 404 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:21,879 Speaker 1: battery on an electric vehicle the lightest batteries about a 405 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:25,560 Speaker 1: thousand pounds. So you've got to think about the inertia. 406 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:29,520 Speaker 1: You know, a thousand pound object traveling along and fifty 407 00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 1: miles an hour coming to a sudden stop in a 408 00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:36,400 Speaker 1: front end collision. You know, back in the day, it 409 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:40,720 Speaker 1: was a gas vehicle traveling along on the front end collision, 410 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:43,399 Speaker 1: and sometimes the engine was ripped from the motor mounts 411 00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 1: because the engine weighed four or five pounds. Now you've 412 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:51,879 Speaker 1: got something that's doubled that mass, all right, and at 413 00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:54,800 Speaker 1: that point, at that point, so the engine got ripped 414 00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 1: from its mounts and you know, went through the radiator 415 00:20:57,760 --> 00:20:59,919 Speaker 1: was still maybe contained in the car, it was broken 416 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:03,119 Speaker 1: amounts whatever got got put into a body shop and 417 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:06,320 Speaker 1: it got fixed or scrapped or what have you. The 418 00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:09,600 Speaker 1: electric vehicle presents some challenges because, yes, it can it 419 00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:14,280 Speaker 1: can come loose and understand and most of the e vs. Structurally, 420 00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:17,639 Speaker 1: the battery contributes to the support and integrity of the vehicle. 421 00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:22,000 Speaker 1: So it's it's it's short of the frame in a 422 00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:27,639 Speaker 1: traditional sense. Okay, So now it's now it's in an accident, 423 00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:31,960 Speaker 1: and you know that vehicle has to be presented for repair. 424 00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:34,639 Speaker 1: It's got to go to a body shop. Well, the 425 00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:36,560 Speaker 1: first thing they have to do is let that vehicle 426 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:41,080 Speaker 1: sit somewhere all right, Uh, you know, to see to 427 00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 1: make sure you know they're questioning battery integrity because they've 428 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:48,560 Speaker 1: they've they've come to learn that little micro cracks happen 429 00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:50,480 Speaker 1: in the case of the battery and the integrity of 430 00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:53,200 Speaker 1: the battery can be compromised. Not something you can see 431 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:56,879 Speaker 1: by the visible eye. As a matter of fact. Next 432 00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:59,880 Speaker 1: week we talked to Chuck Kinkaide from the Redline Detection 433 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:03,120 Speaker 1: and Chuck talks about some of the equipment Redline has 434 00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:07,000 Speaker 1: come up with more information at Redline Detection dot Com 435 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:11,840 Speaker 1: where they're able to measure the integrity of the battery 436 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:16,160 Speaker 1: by looking for leaking gases and chemicals and things like that. 437 00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:19,119 Speaker 1: All right, and we're talking about cracks they called the 438 00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:22,879 Speaker 1: micro fishers. All right, So it's it's it's like a 439 00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:25,639 Speaker 1: crack and a rock that you can't detect by I 440 00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:30,000 Speaker 1: or by field, but they're there. All right. Then the 441 00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 1: problem becomes so you you know, and and and the 442 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:34,440 Speaker 1: reason it comes up on next week's show is because 443 00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:36,879 Speaker 1: a lot of the insurance companies aren't really calling for 444 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:39,040 Speaker 1: this test. So you put this vehicle. It sits in 445 00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:42,920 Speaker 1: a storage yard somewhere, and you know, car doesn't catch fire, 446 00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 1: and a couple of days go by, or five days 447 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:46,800 Speaker 1: go by, whatever it is. Let's take it to the 448 00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:49,360 Speaker 1: body shop. Let's take it to Dave's body shop in Pennsylvania. 449 00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 1: All right, Dave says, sure, bring it over. They put 450 00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 1: that electric vehicle on the flatbed. All right. Now, what 451 00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:59,320 Speaker 1: happens when you're rolled an electric vehicle? You ever think 452 00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:04,040 Speaker 1: about this, what do you do? You generate electricity? Right right? 453 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:07,560 Speaker 1: So you you you take this vehicle. It's sad for 454 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:10,240 Speaker 1: four or five days to have it calmed down, so 455 00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 1: to speak, and now you put it on a flatbed. 456 00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 1: It's kind of like that scene in Amin and Costellomy 457 00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:17,960 Speaker 1: Frankenstein when the monster was getting woke up with and 458 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:20,320 Speaker 1: he was weak. Well, it's sort of like, hey, I'm 459 00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 1: a little weak here, but oh wait a minute, I'm 460 00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:24,639 Speaker 1: getting a little bit of a charge. And then it 461 00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:27,560 Speaker 1: goes to the right over to Dave's body shop. Now, 462 00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:32,119 Speaker 1: what the industry is calling for is in specifically I 463 00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:36,760 Speaker 1: Cars pushing for, is they want that battery to be 464 00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:41,159 Speaker 1: tested for leaks at that moment before they take it 465 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:43,920 Speaker 1: from off the flatbed and put it into Dave's body shop. 466 00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:48,399 Speaker 1: But the insurance companies aren't agreeing with this, and the 467 00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:54,480 Speaker 1: manufacturers aren't necessarily agreeing with this. Why because of money? Right, 468 00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:57,440 Speaker 1: So we put it into Dave's body shop. There's nothing 469 00:23:57,440 --> 00:23:59,360 Speaker 1: wrong with it. David hasn't caught fire in five days 470 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 1: or camp be any wrong with it. We put it 471 00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:04,800 Speaker 1: in Dave's body shop. You know, it's Friday night, four o'clock, 472 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:06,520 Speaker 1: five o'clock. We put in the body shop over the 473 00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:08,760 Speaker 1: weekend so it'll be a nice, clean, warm car on 474 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 1: Monday morning when we come back to work on the car. 475 00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 1: Then Dave gets a call at midnight Friday night, Hey, Dave, 476 00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:17,920 Speaker 1: your body shop burned down because the car burned down 477 00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 1: because the battery was leaking. Because we generated electricity to 478 00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:24,399 Speaker 1: roll it inside and nobody ever checked the structural integrity. 479 00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:32,280 Speaker 1: I don't know, you think that's a problem. Yeah, um, yeah, yeah, 480 00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:36,200 Speaker 1: it's It was insane. The conversation Wednesday night, my head 481 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:41,040 Speaker 1: just about exploded. Um. You know, we talked about, you know, 482 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:44,040 Speaker 1: the things that Dirk brought up, and they all brought 483 00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:48,080 Speaker 1: up excellent points, all right, but for some reason, Dirk's 484 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:50,640 Speaker 1: Dirk is in the in the second hour next week, 485 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:54,240 Speaker 1: and he brought up some conversation about, you know, the 486 00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:57,360 Speaker 1: mandates on how vehicles have to be prepped and cleaned, 487 00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:00,720 Speaker 1: and they're calling for sixteen foot perim 's around the 488 00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:04,359 Speaker 1: vehicles so that you know, the cleanliness of the connectors 489 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:06,520 Speaker 1: and the cleanliness of the repair and the vehicle can 490 00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:10,000 Speaker 1: be maintained because there's issues with you know, the guy 491 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:11,760 Speaker 1: in a body shop. A body shop is a very 492 00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:15,680 Speaker 1: dirty environment, right uh, you know, look at any body shop. 493 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:17,280 Speaker 1: I'm not picking on body shop, but they're a very 494 00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:20,560 Speaker 1: dirty environment. They've got ventilating systems. You know, you're grinding 495 00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:23,720 Speaker 1: your welding, you're you're you're doing body work. There's dust, 496 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:27,480 Speaker 1: there's there's tough all over the place. They're calling for 497 00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:30,480 Speaker 1: a sixteen foot perimeter around an electric vehicle when it's 498 00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:32,439 Speaker 1: being repaired, because they want to make sure the area 499 00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 1: is clean and free of contaminants. Start looking at body shops, 500 00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:39,320 Speaker 1: you know, were they gonna get a sixteen foot perimeter 501 00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:42,600 Speaker 1: with a car in the middle exactly? You have to 502 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:47,800 Speaker 1: the ability twice as big or something. And that perimeter 503 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:51,400 Speaker 1: kind of brings up My initial thinking was if you're 504 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:54,200 Speaker 1: in that thing and it gets into wreck, I was 505 00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:59,280 Speaker 1: worried about the terminals connecting the metal, you know, and 506 00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:03,280 Speaker 1: and actually actual finement. I'm thinking, if I'm in this 507 00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:07,320 Speaker 1: thing and it gets you know, hit in a way 508 00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:10,360 Speaker 1: that the terminals are connected to the medal, are you 509 00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:14,400 Speaker 1: in danger? You know? Are the fireman the first responder 510 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:17,359 Speaker 1: when they come, do they? I'm sure they have to 511 00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:19,800 Speaker 1: be trained on a whole new set of circumstances for 512 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:23,399 Speaker 1: approaching the vehicle in an accident. If that's the case. 513 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:26,080 Speaker 1: I don't know if it is. But if those you know, 514 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:28,760 Speaker 1: and I pictured a bank of batteries, you know, like 515 00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:31,560 Speaker 1: five or ten of them or something, because if they're 516 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:34,040 Speaker 1: in series, that's a lot of bols. Well it's I 517 00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 1: don't know, it's whether it's in series or how they're 518 00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:38,280 Speaker 1: over they're tied together. But it's it's just you know, 519 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:41,600 Speaker 1: it's the kilouatt outage power outage of that battery. We 520 00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:44,040 Speaker 1: had the fire chief of the North Collier Fire Department 521 00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:46,360 Speaker 1: from Florida on the show. If you recall a couple 522 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:48,480 Speaker 1: of months back from Naples after the hurricane. You know what, 523 00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:50,360 Speaker 1: let me pull over and take a pause, Dave, sit tight. 524 00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:52,800 Speaker 1: When I come back, we'll talk about that story and 525 00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:55,119 Speaker 1: and and everything. The chief told us the issues they 526 00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:58,399 Speaker 1: were having right after Hurricanean So, um, stay put, I'm 527 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:00,080 Speaker 1: run an any in the car. Doctor. We'll return and 528 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:23,479 Speaker 1: right after this welcome back, we'rennee of the card. We're 529 00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:25,800 Speaker 1: talking with David Pennsylvania. Dave and were when we pulled 530 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:27,840 Speaker 1: over to take the pause, we had a bunch of 531 00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 1: conversation lines going on. I want to comment on one. 532 00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:34,080 Speaker 1: You know, if you're in the accident and you know 533 00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:37,200 Speaker 1: the high discharge battery and there's a shorter, there's there's 534 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:40,560 Speaker 1: an issue with uh, you know, electricity in the car. 535 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:43,320 Speaker 1: As long as you're in the vehicle, you're okay once 536 00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:45,400 Speaker 1: your foot hits the ground, but it's got to get 537 00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:47,920 Speaker 1: it's got to get the grounds first. Um. You know, 538 00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:49,760 Speaker 1: if it's if it doesn't get the ground, you know, 539 00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:51,360 Speaker 1: there could be an issue here. The other thing we 540 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:54,320 Speaker 1: were talking about was, you know, in the events of fire, 541 00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:56,560 Speaker 1: when we had the fire chief from the North Collier 542 00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:59,160 Speaker 1: Fire Department on from Naples a couple of months back, 543 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:01,439 Speaker 1: he was talking about the damage from Hurricane and he 544 00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:04,199 Speaker 1: was telling the stories that they were picking up vehicles, 545 00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:07,120 Speaker 1: you know, electric vehicles out of garages that had been flooded. 546 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:09,520 Speaker 1: The salt water had gotten in there and corroded the batteries. 547 00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:12,560 Speaker 1: Um there was damaged to the integrity of the battery, 548 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:15,880 Speaker 1: and the vehicles were actually catching fire on the back 549 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:18,679 Speaker 1: of the flatbeds such that they had to get you know, 550 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:21,200 Speaker 1: dumped on the on the highway. They were they were 551 00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 1: just they pull over and put them right right on 552 00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:26,200 Speaker 1: the highway and pull the truck away and they burned. 553 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:27,920 Speaker 1: By the time the fire trucks got there, there was 554 00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:31,600 Speaker 1: not much they could do. They'd have to babysit those cars, 555 00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:35,280 Speaker 1: because understand, once an electric vehicle catches fire, once that 556 00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:39,200 Speaker 1: lithium ion battery catches fire, that's not twenty minutes and 557 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:42,800 Speaker 1: it's out. The chief in North Collier was telling us 558 00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:45,120 Speaker 1: that they were there with that vehicle anywhere from three 559 00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:48,680 Speaker 1: to eight hours babysitting it, just making sure that it 560 00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:52,680 Speaker 1: didn't flare up, making sure that it didn't reignite time 561 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 1: and time again. So there's a serious issue that is 562 00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 1: not getting addressed with an e V future. Do I 563 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:02,200 Speaker 1: think there is an EV future? Yeah, I just don't 564 00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:04,400 Speaker 1: think it's gonna be the way everybody envisions it because 565 00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:06,600 Speaker 1: there's a bunch of technology that we have to overcome, 566 00:29:06,600 --> 00:29:08,720 Speaker 1: and there's a bunch of challenges that we have to overcome, 567 00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:10,960 Speaker 1: and I don't think it's going to happen quickly because 568 00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:15,320 Speaker 1: of the cost factor. Um. You know, really, if you 569 00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 1: get a chance, listen to the next week's show, because 570 00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:21,480 Speaker 1: after you hear some of the challenges and just repairing them, 571 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:25,960 Speaker 1: you're going to question the EV future again, Um, just 572 00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:29,880 Speaker 1: as you're doing now. Uh you know, if that makes 573 00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:38,160 Speaker 1: sense to you. Dave, they have you there we lost Dave. 574 00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:42,520 Speaker 1: Oh here there you go. There you go, sir. Um 575 00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:47,960 Speaker 1: did you uh you heard my looking forward? Yes? I 576 00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:50,320 Speaker 1: heard you at the end. I'm really looking forward to 577 00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:55,840 Speaker 1: hearing next with this to This topic interests me because 578 00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:58,680 Speaker 1: it seems like it's you know, I don't know, I 579 00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:02,000 Speaker 1: feel like it's being pushed very, very hard and it's 580 00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:05,280 Speaker 1: gonna happen. And you know, I'm like, I don't want 581 00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:08,520 Speaker 1: to hang onto my old technology. I'm over sixty, so 582 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:10,920 Speaker 1: I think I'll be able to get off this rock 583 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:13,520 Speaker 1: without having to buy one. But I just think in 584 00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:17,640 Speaker 1: the future, Um, you know, they're going to try to 585 00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:22,040 Speaker 1: eradicate fossil field cars and I just don't think. Well, 586 00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 1: you know, I think they are going to try to 587 00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 1: do that, and I don't. But the math doesn't lie. Um. 588 00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:29,760 Speaker 1: You know, one of the things I've learned in my 589 00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:32,320 Speaker 1: life is, you know, everybody can say what they want, 590 00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:36,280 Speaker 1: but you know, let's let's keep politics and opinion out 591 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:41,120 Speaker 1: of this conversation if we can, all right, if if, 592 00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:43,920 Speaker 1: if you want to go look at something called Watts law, 593 00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:47,840 Speaker 1: Olms law and Watts law. If you want to understand, 594 00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:52,200 Speaker 1: you know, the potential for electric vehicles, go go start 595 00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:54,160 Speaker 1: to read about Olms law and Watts law and on. 596 00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:57,760 Speaker 1: Watts law is used to calculate, among other things and 597 00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:00,440 Speaker 1: many things. It's it's all about a power could assumption 598 00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:04,160 Speaker 1: and replacement and it's it's it's it's the formula is 599 00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:08,640 Speaker 1: used to calculate the length of time to recharge battery 600 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:13,360 Speaker 1: technology as we know it today, it's impractical. It's you know, 601 00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 1: it's it's it's like saying it's like, you know, go 602 00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:18,240 Speaker 1: go stand, go out in front of your house, go 603 00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:20,480 Speaker 1: out in the street, draw a circle in the in 604 00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:22,080 Speaker 1: the street, stand in the middle of it, and say 605 00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:24,480 Speaker 1: I'm ready to beam up. Just stand there and wait, 606 00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:27,000 Speaker 1: because you know, you can stand there and pretend you're 607 00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:30,160 Speaker 1: gonna get transported, but it's not gonna happen. Don't get 608 00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:31,560 Speaker 1: hit by a car, by the way, if you do that, 609 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:35,520 Speaker 1: all right, most most most important, don't get hit by 610 00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:39,160 Speaker 1: an electric vehicle. It'll be a bigger problem. Um. You know. 611 00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:42,040 Speaker 1: So they can say they want to do all these things, 612 00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:46,640 Speaker 1: but you know, there comes a point of practicality. And 613 00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:50,000 Speaker 1: you know, I remember Elon Musk in an article over 614 00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:52,600 Speaker 1: the summer, was talking about, you know, why aren't the 615 00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:56,360 Speaker 1: Big three He was trying to entice GM and four 616 00:31:56,400 --> 00:32:00,920 Speaker 1: it to come in and and you know, do more 617 00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:03,800 Speaker 1: with electric vehicles. And his commentary was along the lines 618 00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:09,240 Speaker 1: of it's like printing money. This isn't about this isn't 619 00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:12,720 Speaker 1: about clean air, This isn't about protecting the environment. This 620 00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:17,240 Speaker 1: is about money. That's what electric vehicles are about, all right, 621 00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:23,760 Speaker 1: because the practical point and the the the logic of it, 622 00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:26,640 Speaker 1: it's just it's a collision, no pun intended. I'll leave 623 00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:29,280 Speaker 1: it there, Dave, you have thanks for giving us a 624 00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:30,920 Speaker 1: call today. You have you have yourself a great safe 625 00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:32,400 Speaker 1: New Year's and we'll see you on the other side. 626 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:36,320 Speaker 1: All right, brother, same Happy New Year, Happy New Year. 627 00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:38,160 Speaker 1: You'd be well, I'm running any in the car doctor 628 00:32:38,240 --> 00:33:00,960 Speaker 1: here at zero. I'll be back right after this. Welcome back, 629 00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:02,719 Speaker 1: ranneeing the car doctor. You know, I was talking to 630 00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:06,000 Speaker 1: Tom before the show today and his brother Unfortunately it 631 00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:08,920 Speaker 1: was in an automobile accident yesterday and he's okay, but 632 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:12,240 Speaker 1: he he got rear ended. UM and his twelve Toyota 633 00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:14,800 Speaker 1: Corolla I think it was a twelve. UM got stuffed 634 00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:17,680 Speaker 1: in the trunk. Uh. He his brother was sitting and 635 00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:20,960 Speaker 1: UM another car came hurtling along, you know, at speed 636 00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:22,960 Speaker 1: and put the trunk into the back seat. And Tom 637 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:24,200 Speaker 1: asked me, he said, what do you think would have 638 00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:26,000 Speaker 1: happened if it was an electric vehicle? And I said, 639 00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:29,240 Speaker 1: you know, Tom, you wonder because you've got a question. 640 00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:31,840 Speaker 1: That car would have to be totaled. Uh, you know, 641 00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:34,040 Speaker 1: just like this Corolla. And think of the cost factor 642 00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:37,640 Speaker 1: difference for replacing a Toyota Corolla versus an electric vehicle 643 00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:39,840 Speaker 1: with a battery and and all the other things that 644 00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 1: go on with it. So, you know, accidents and repairing 645 00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:46,320 Speaker 1: of electric vehicles is definitely clearly a topic. And yes, Tom, 646 00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:47,600 Speaker 1: it is gonna be tough for him to find a 647 00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:50,640 Speaker 1: car right now because right now the marketplace is not 648 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:55,080 Speaker 1: it's not too conducive for you know, replacement. I was 649 00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:57,440 Speaker 1: speaking to the local Ford dealer last night as a 650 00:33:57,440 --> 00:33:59,800 Speaker 1: matter of fact. Uh, they called to say happy New Year, 651 00:33:59,880 --> 00:34:02,480 Speaker 1: and uh, no secret, we were thinking of replacing the 652 00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:05,600 Speaker 1: family Explorer and over the summer and here we are 653 00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:09,839 Speaker 1: five months later, four months later. Um, they have two 654 00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:12,319 Speaker 1: V six Explorers on the lot. Everything else is a 655 00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:16,120 Speaker 1: fourth cylinder. They have only mid level down in terms 656 00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:19,279 Speaker 1: of trim. They have no high line Explorers yet they 657 00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:21,279 Speaker 1: don't know when they're gonna get them.
