Let's go up to Frank in Alaska with 30 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,200 Speaker 2: an O four Chrysler PACIFICA and some questions. Frank, Welcome 31 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:34,880 Speaker 2: to the Car Doctor, sir. How can I help? 32 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:38,800 Speaker 3: Hey, Ron, thank you very much for entertaining my phone call. 33 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:41,839 Speaker 3: You are very entertaining and informative yourself. 34 00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:42,480 Speaker 2: Thank you, sir. 35 00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 3: So here's the situation. I bought this Chrysler Pacifica December 36 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 3: of twenty two put with one hundred and twenty one 37 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 3: thousand miles on it, drove it down to southern California, 38 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 3: from Seattle back up to Alaska, no issues. Got one 39 00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 3: hundred and thirty four thousand miles on it now and 40 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 3: the first symptom that we had was the fan motor 41 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:09,919 Speaker 3: would stay on high even though the dashboard indicator lights 42 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 3: were telling me that I was increasing or decreasing the 43 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:17,840 Speaker 3: fan volume. And then other things electronically started happening, such 44 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 3: as you put the key in it, turned the key, 45 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 3: nothing comes on, Disconnect the battery terminals, reconnect the master 46 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:28,760 Speaker 3: a little bit, and everything comes on and the car 47 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 3: starts and drives as it should. And so we started 48 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:35,120 Speaker 3: getting a lot of wonky electronic things like that, and 49 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:38,840 Speaker 3: wondering if you had any insight on those Chrysler Pacificus 50 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 3: from the electronics side of the house. 51 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 2: You're you're talking about the blower motor inside the car, 52 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 2: not not the cooling fan. 53 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 3: That is correct, right, That is correct. The cooling fans 54 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 3: are criminon and doing what they're supposed to do. This 55 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 3: is the I'm sorry, this is the air conditioner heater blower. 56 00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:01,160 Speaker 3: And after disconnecting the battery for about two or three 57 00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 3: days and reconnecting it, then it seemed to work fine 58 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:08,640 Speaker 3: as it normally should, and then then after a couple 59 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:12,519 Speaker 3: of days it would be stuck on high again. Okay, 60 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:16,000 Speaker 3: I was getting where the door locks weren't opening and 61 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 3: closing even though the key was in the ignition and 62 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:24,359 Speaker 3: turned to the on position. So there was this spirited 63 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,800 Speaker 3: or I heard your intro about a possessed PT cruiser. 64 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:31,920 Speaker 3: This is a somewhat possessed Christy PACIFICA. 65 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 2: But the thing that fails first is the blower motor, 66 00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 2: and then the other things start to act rout. 67 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:42,520 Speaker 3: Okay, so that is correct, but the constant is the 68 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 3: blower motor, and so go ahead. 69 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 2: Do you have access to a I don't want to 70 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 2: just do OBD two codes. I want to do dealer 71 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:52,120 Speaker 2: level codes. I want to be able to pull by 72 00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 2: year make model. Do you have access to any kind 73 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 2: of scan tool? 74 00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 5: I do not. 75 00:03:57,520 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 3: I'd have to go get one, all right. 76 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 2: You know, either that or you know, if you have 77 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 2: a mechanic up there that can at least run codes 78 00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 2: for you. You know, the the blower control module itself's 79 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 2: a common failure. You know, when you when you disconnect 80 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 2: the battery, you're just wiping memory. So you know, I'd 81 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 2: be curious when the failures start what sort of codes 82 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 2: are appearing in the body and control modules, and those 83 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:27,080 Speaker 2: particular fault codes, you know, are not going to necessarily 84 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:28,800 Speaker 2: be able to be read by just an ob D 85 00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 2: two scan tool. Do you know what I mean? When 86 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 2: I say the difference between an OBD two scan tool 87 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:37,839 Speaker 2: and a year make model device Frank, Yes, okay, yes 88 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 2: I do. 89 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:39,039 Speaker 5: I listened to your show. 90 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:40,480 Speaker 3: I am educated. 91 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 2: Okay, So yeah, OBD two being emissions only is not 92 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:46,680 Speaker 2: going to read or go into the modules that contain 93 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:50,479 Speaker 2: blower module information. Let's say i'd want to see what's there, 94 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,279 Speaker 2: all right, I want to attack that first. You know 95 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 2: that always said fix what you know is broke, move 96 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 2: on to the next thing, all right, you know you 97 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 2: may find a common denominator. 98 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:00,839 Speaker 5: You know. 99 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:03,840 Speaker 2: Obviously we could talk about broken wires, we could talk 100 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:07,200 Speaker 2: about grounds that are you know, contaminated, We could you know, heck, 101 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 2: we could spend the next hour talking about the woo ifs. 102 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 2: But I think first step, first stop has got to 103 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 2: be blower motor. And then my second comment would be, 104 00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 2: you know when the blower motor does stop, if I've 105 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 2: got a better quality scan tool, can I control it 106 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:26,960 Speaker 2: from the scan tool? Can I make the blower motor run? 107 00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 2: And that would and that would tell me something too. 108 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:32,839 Speaker 2: If I can make the blower motor run, I know 109 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 2: the fan module is good, good, the blower module is good. 110 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 2: I know the blower is good chances are it's something 111 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 2: on the control side, whereas if I can't make it 112 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:43,280 Speaker 2: run using a scan tool bi directional control, then I've 113 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 2: got a fault either on the module itself, which I'm 114 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 2: controlling directly with the scan tool, or the blower itself too, 115 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,120 Speaker 2: which is obviously being controlled by the scan tool. So 116 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,720 Speaker 2: you know, a lot of our diagnosis from the old days. 117 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 2: And I'm not picking on you. I understand why you 118 00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 2: do that. A lot of people do of disconnect thing. Yeah, 119 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:03,000 Speaker 2: I get it. You can do it once just to 120 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:06,040 Speaker 2: see where does it take you. But if it continues 121 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,479 Speaker 2: to work like that, and that's the fault, what you're 122 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:10,840 Speaker 2: doing is you're actually erasing the information that will help 123 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 2: you to fix it. And you know, yeah, you're kind 124 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:17,039 Speaker 2: of you know, you're you're You've got your gun pointed 125 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 2: at your foot and keep pulling the trigger, you know, 126 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 2: as the saying goes. 127 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 3: Okay, just to be clear that the blower never shuts off. 128 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:26,599 Speaker 3: As long as the keys in the ignition and turned on, 129 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 3: the blower comes on and stays on. It's just if 130 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:31,560 Speaker 3: I can't control its uh, right. 131 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:36,840 Speaker 2: It's always it's always running and high correct. Yeah, it's right. 132 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 2: It sounds, and. 133 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:42,400 Speaker 3: So the door locks and the other things like that. 134 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 3: That's not somehow connected to some computer somewhere that I'm 135 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:46,919 Speaker 3: not aware of. 136 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 2: I don't know that. I don't know that yet. I 137 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 2: want to hear what codes are in this. 138 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:54,240 Speaker 3: Okay, all right, great, I'll have to look it up 139 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 3: and get back with you. 140 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 2: All right, you get back. You know where I'm going 141 00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 2: to be every weekend. I'm here, babe. 142 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:01,920 Speaker 3: All right, you're doing now. I have a questioned about 143 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 3: an oil leak on a SOB. I don't know if 144 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 3: we got time for it. Sure fighting product here, you guys, 145 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 3: you guys, you know represent a couple of different companies. 146 00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 3: I just I've got a one SOB ninety three. It's 147 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:17,960 Speaker 3: got one hundred and sixty six thousand miles on it. 148 00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 3: I just drove it from western North Carolina to Indiana 149 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 3: and back. Had always and the oil was topped off 150 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,240 Speaker 3: all the way, didn't burn any From. 151 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 5: Two days ago. 152 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 3: I went to go do an oil change and realized 153 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:30,960 Speaker 3: the oil was extremely low. And I realized I've been 154 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:34,280 Speaker 3: leaving I don't know, probably three to four inches of 155 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 3: ounces of oil every time I stopped and park the car. 156 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:40,320 Speaker 3: And I'm just my act was actually underneath it when 157 00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:43,280 Speaker 3: Tom called and was trying to figure out where is 158 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 3: this coming from? And if it's a let's just say, 159 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 3: like a I don't know, a valve cover leak. Is 160 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 3: there a quick fix with an additive that would be safe. 161 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 2: No, I've got and I've got no company we're dealing with. 162 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:01,119 Speaker 2: As far as oil leaks, we like case for coolant leaks. 163 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 2: And that's got to proven track record. So yeah, don't don't, 164 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 2: don't confuse the two. I can tell you it's going 165 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 2: to be a wash it down and get it dry. 166 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 2: And then if you want to add a fluorescent dye 167 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 2: to it and look to see, you know, get yourself, 168 00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 2: get yourself a black light and some glasses and look 169 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 2: to see where it's coming out or you know, if 170 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 2: it's if it's coming out high. Yeah, valve cover gas 171 00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 2: gets always leaked on those in the back, not an 172 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 2: uncommon thing. Make sure the crank case ventilation systems working properly. 173 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:31,280 Speaker 2: Too much pressure in the crank would do that. You 174 00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 2: may you may. 175 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,439 Speaker 3: Find because it is coming down, it is coming down 176 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 3: the back of the motor. I just crawled underneath and 177 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 3: I was getting ready to pull the catalytic converter, because 178 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:43,840 Speaker 3: it looks like it's dripping right down onto the catalytic converter. 179 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 2: Right, you know, you may find you may find it 180 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 2: if it's if it's a too much pressure in the 181 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:51,680 Speaker 2: crank case thing, pull the dipstick up so that it 182 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 2: clears the two but doesn't come out all the way. 183 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:55,560 Speaker 2: You know, give it about a half inch of rise, 184 00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 2: release it all read there's some crank case pressure. Does 185 00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:00,240 Speaker 2: that cut down on the oil loss? If you got 186 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 2: to get home, you know, you got to get somewhere. 187 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:04,720 Speaker 2: But you know, does that make a change in it? 188 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,599 Speaker 2: You know, But yeah, it sounds like it sounds like 189 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 2: you've got a valve cover guest at the start from 190 00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:11,360 Speaker 2: my seat here, Frank. 191 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,360 Speaker 3: All right, well, thank you very much, appreciate your time, 192 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:17,200 Speaker 3: and just want to say I just looked at your 193 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:20,600 Speaker 3: picture online and what you need is a stethoscope and 194 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:23,640 Speaker 3: one of those reflector mirrors on your forehead like Ben 195 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 3: Casey used to wear back in the sixties, because you 196 00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:27,319 Speaker 3: are the car dot. 197 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 2: Thank you, Frank, I appreciate that you make me laugh. 198 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 2: But very welcome, sir.

Al Welcome back, sir. 218 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:26,320 Speaker 2: How are you today? 219 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 4: Oh great? Thank you for taking my call. 220 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 5: Ron. 221 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 4: Appreciate the automotive education every week. 222 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:31,960 Speaker 2: You're welcome. 223 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 4: Two thousand and five Nissan CenTra. It's losing clutch flu 224 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:38,840 Speaker 4: It's got one hundred and seventeen thousand miles. 225 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:38,960 Speaker 5: On. 226 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 4: It just broken in and the rate of clutch fluid 227 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 4: law seems to be increasing. For the last year I've 228 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 4: been watching it, and if you look at the reservoir, 229 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 4: it went from MAX to MEN at about four thousand miles. 230 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:54,400 Speaker 4: Then it went from MAX to MEN at about two 231 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:57,280 Speaker 4: thousand miles. Right now it seems to be on pace 232 00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:59,200 Speaker 4: to go for MAX to MEN and maybe about one 233 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:02,760 Speaker 4: thousand miles. So I got two questions. One, am I 234 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,680 Speaker 4: headed for a catastrophic failure where you know, one day 235 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 4: in the middle of the night, I press on the 236 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:10,600 Speaker 4: clutch and there's nothing there. And Secondly, how do I 237 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:15,360 Speaker 4: diagnose whether it's the master cylinder or the slave cylinder? 238 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 4: There are no leaks on any of the lines, so 239 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,760 Speaker 4: I got to presume it's either the master or the slave. 240 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:23,120 Speaker 4: But how would I diagnose which one it is? 241 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:26,679 Speaker 2: And so we're clear, this is a the master cylinder 242 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:31,280 Speaker 2: for the clutch is a separate fill from the breakmaster cylinder? Correct? 243 00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:32,439 Speaker 4: Absolutely, all right? 244 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 2: There are there are two separate units on this vehicle, correct, 245 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 2: all right? 246 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:36,960 Speaker 4: Correct? 247 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:40,359 Speaker 2: So you know, how would you diagnose a leaky breakmaster 248 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 2: cylinder oult you'd neither unbolted from the booster right, and 249 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:47,600 Speaker 2: and look at the back. Is it wet? All right? 250 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:49,880 Speaker 2: And you're gonna do the same thing with the clutch now, 251 00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:53,440 Speaker 2: you know? Are Do you see any fluid coming out 252 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:57,119 Speaker 2: the bottom back of the slave? I'm sorry, the master. 253 00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 4: It anywhere, right, you know? If you do it anywhere, 254 00:11:59,440 --> 00:11:59,640 Speaker 4: If you. 255 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:02,680 Speaker 2: All under the dash and look up at the back 256 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:05,200 Speaker 2: where the push rod goes into the booster and I'm sorry, 257 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:08,640 Speaker 2: into the clutch, master doesn't look wet there. If you 258 00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:10,840 Speaker 2: peel back some of the firewall padding, do you see 259 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:11,880 Speaker 2: signs of break fluid? 260 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:15,000 Speaker 4: Because you haven't done that in a while, because the 261 00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 4: clutch pedal would sometimes stick a little bitch where it 262 00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 4: wouldn't come all the way up to the top. So 263 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:22,640 Speaker 4: I crawled under the dash to see if there was 264 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 4: a problem with the Clovis spin or anything. I haven't 265 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:29,960 Speaker 4: done that in a while. But certainly, just looking down there, 266 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:33,959 Speaker 4: I don't see any fluid. Okay, I think everything's dry, 267 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 4: but I'll certainly check again. 268 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:37,880 Speaker 2: If you go down to the slave, the slave has 269 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:41,480 Speaker 2: bolted to the side of the bellhousing, correct, yes, well 270 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:41,680 Speaker 2: at the. 271 00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 4: Top of the tree, yeah, the top of. 272 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 2: The top of the trans Then it's a matter it's 273 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:47,400 Speaker 2: just like a wheel cylinder back in the old days. 274 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:49,960 Speaker 2: If you peel back the rubber boot, do you see 275 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:53,000 Speaker 2: any signs of fluid there? It's it's gotta be. It's 276 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 2: gotta be one or the other, frank, right, right, I 277 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,080 Speaker 2: don't know how much it's gonna matter. It's it's going 278 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 2: on twenty years old, it's got one hundred thousand miles 279 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:04,439 Speaker 2: on it. If it's a leaking master, I'm going to 280 00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:06,520 Speaker 2: put a slave on it, because it's pushed all the 281 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 2: contaminant that made the master leak down into the slave. 282 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 2: And if it's a leaking slave, it got all the 283 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 2: contaminant from the master that's not leaking yet that I 284 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:15,520 Speaker 2: might as well just change both and get it over with, 285 00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 2: problem solve. 286 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 4: Okay, So your advice would be, if it's one or 287 00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 4: the other, replacement both, Yeah. 288 00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:23,240 Speaker 2: I kind of I tend to do it that way. 289 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:27,600 Speaker 2: I'm a I'm a bi symptom, by category, by component related, 290 00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:29,560 Speaker 2: you know. And then is it the original clutch? 291 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm sure clutch clutch. 292 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:34,880 Speaker 2: Working, okay, And I'm not suggesting just to put a 293 00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:37,480 Speaker 2: clutch in it just at random then, you know, but 294 00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:40,719 Speaker 2: I would I would work on the hydraulics from that perspective, 295 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:42,439 Speaker 2: and I think that's your best bet. 296 00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 4: Okay, is it likely to stabilize or just all. 297 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 2: Of a sudden quick it's likely to continue to slowly degrade? Okay, 298 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 2: you know it's it's it's it's not going to stabilize. 299 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:56,160 Speaker 2: I'm from the sounds of it. It's getting worse day 300 00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:59,800 Speaker 2: by day. So you know, I think you're going to 301 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,480 Speaker 2: line that it's just going to eventually get to the 302 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 2: point where you're adding more fluid than you can come 303 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:08,120 Speaker 2: up with. And yeah, but you know it's it's let 304 00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:10,360 Speaker 2: me put it to you this way. You know, it's broke. 305 00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:14,720 Speaker 2: It's telling you it's fair you're getting You're getting fair warning. 306 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 2: You know, yeah, right, exactly, Well, well number one, number 307 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 2: two start ordering parts today, maybe you'll get him in 308 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:25,160 Speaker 2: two months. 309 00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:26,080 Speaker 5: You know. 310 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 2: Which is which is just like you would have a 311 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 2: break system, you know, bench bleed, bench bleed the master. 312 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 2: You know, clamp it in a vice, bench bleed the master. 313 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 2: You know, stroke it a couple of times, put the 314 00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:42,040 Speaker 2: little rubber plug back over the line, get it bolted 315 00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:45,160 Speaker 2: into the car, and then you know you're gonna hook 316 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 2: the line up. Bleed the slave, just like you would 317 00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:51,120 Speaker 2: bleed a clutch master and then go bleed the bleed 318 00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:54,000 Speaker 2: the slave. Yeah, same thing. If you've got a you know, 319 00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:56,600 Speaker 2: here's an example where because it's so simple, it's just 320 00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:59,520 Speaker 2: one line pulling down from the master. If you're out 321 00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:01,080 Speaker 2: at the auto art store and it's a reason to 322 00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:03,440 Speaker 2: spend some money on tools, you know, you can get 323 00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 2: a bleeder, you know, a little hand pump bleeder, a 324 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:08,480 Speaker 2: suction style bleeder. They're cheap, they're under fifty bucks now, 325 00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 2: and you know, you might be able to bleed it 326 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:11,320 Speaker 2: out by yourself. 327 00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:16,720 Speaker 4: But I actually have one of these. It's like a 328 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:19,160 Speaker 4: tube and it's got a one way valve in it, 329 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:22,240 Speaker 4: so you can put it on the bleeder nipple. You 330 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:25,160 Speaker 4: can press down on the break or the clutch pedal. 331 00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:26,400 Speaker 2: It lets out but not a. 332 00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, and if you let it back up, the one 333 00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 4: way valve will prevent it from Uh. 334 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:35,040 Speaker 2: That should work. That should work. 335 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:36,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, that should work. 336 00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:36,560 Speaker 2: That should work. 337 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:39,600 Speaker 4: I would dip it in fluid anyhow, just to be sure, right, Yeah, 338 00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:41,520 Speaker 4: you know, and you could you could partially stroke the 339 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:43,440 Speaker 4: slave and try to get it going. 340 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:46,360 Speaker 2: But yeah, that should that should work.

Hey, 341 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:48,320 Speaker 2: I'll stay on the line, Tom gave me the high sign. 342 00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:50,160 Speaker 2: We're gonna be sending out a copy of Formula one 343 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 2: Drive to Survive, the unofficial companion for everybody. I think 344 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 2: you'll appreciate it. You're a car guy. We've talked over 345 00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:57,960 Speaker 2: the years, and I think this book's got your name 346 00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:00,080 Speaker 2: all over it. And for everybody else you can and 347 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:02,320 Speaker 2: then online at Amazon dot com and Barnes and Noble 348 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 2: al States tight stay where you are and we'll talk 349 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:07,000 Speaker 2: about it again. I want to talk a little bit 350 00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:12,680 Speaker 2: about some of the notices I've received regarding have you 351 00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 2: seen the one in Sweden? Sweden is building an electric 352 00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:18,680 Speaker 2: road that will charge moving electric vehicles. It's kind of 353 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 2: fascinating how they're going to go about that. They've piloted 354 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:26,640 Speaker 2: four temporary electrified roads in the city of London, southern Sweden, 355 00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,080 Speaker 2: and you know, it's amazing when you look at the 356 00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 2: depths and the cost factor to do all this in 357 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:36,360 Speaker 2: terms of making it work. You know, I keep thinking 358 00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:40,960 Speaker 2: about the electric vehicle thing and at the level that 359 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:42,880 Speaker 2: they're going to need to make all this happen in 360 00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:46,400 Speaker 2: the next well fifteen very short years, right, No more 361 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:49,000 Speaker 2: internal combustion engines in the United States by twenty thirty 362 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 2: five to be sold new by most of the manufacturers. 363 00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:56,080 Speaker 2: I needed a cell phone yesterday. Have you ever tried 364 00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:58,400 Speaker 2: to replace your cell phone? Have you had that experience 365 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 2: yet where you call up called up Horizon? And I 366 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:03,440 Speaker 2: said the same thing four times over the course of 367 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:06,760 Speaker 2: thirty five minutes. My cell phone's broken. I've charged the battery, 368 00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:08,639 Speaker 2: the battery goes bad. I know it's the battery. This 369 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:10,560 Speaker 2: is what it was on my other phone. I'm willing 370 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:12,920 Speaker 2: to pay for my insurance. I'm willing to pay the deductible. 371 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:15,159 Speaker 2: I just need a new phone. Took thirty five, almost 372 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:17,720 Speaker 2: forty minutes, and I kept thinking, if this is an 373 00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:19,720 Speaker 2: electric vehicle stuck on the side of the road, and 374 00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:21,520 Speaker 2: I've got to go through the process of and they're 375 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:23,880 Speaker 2: reading the script, you know, they go down the line 376 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:26,240 Speaker 2: and it says, okay, battery doesn't charge. They're going to 377 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:29,280 Speaker 2: go through steps one through forty before they finally give 378 00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 2: you the answer about sure, we'll send out a tower, 379 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 2: We'll send out a replacement phone. I look at the 380 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:37,439 Speaker 2: capacity and I measured that against cell phone because I 381 00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:42,520 Speaker 2: think the electric vehicle revolution has got to have require 382 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:46,159 Speaker 2: as much resource in time and effort material as the 383 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:49,720 Speaker 2: cell phone revolution, and they can't keep up with the 384 00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:51,680 Speaker 2: demand now to keep everybody in the cell phone. They're 385 00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:54,240 Speaker 2: having a hard time doing it because they've got to 386 00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:57,359 Speaker 2: script everything and make people that don't think sit behind 387 00:17:57,359 --> 00:17:59,240 Speaker 2: the desk trying to do their job. So I don't know, 388 00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:02,640 Speaker 2: maybe I'm I don't know, maybe i'm too uh, I'm 389 00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 2: too irritated anyway. Eight five five five six zero nine 390 00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:08,280 Speaker 2: nine zero zero. I'm running in in the car doctor. 391 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:46,960 Speaker 2: I'm coming right back. Don't go away. Welcome back, running 392 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:48,399 Speaker 2: the car doctor. And I want to point out for 393 00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:50,760 Speaker 2: Steve and Virginia, who we were talking to about changing 394 00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:53,840 Speaker 2: the coolant on his thirteen Toyota Ta Coma. He made 395 00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:56,000 Speaker 2: a comment about going back to the dealer to purchase 396 00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:58,720 Speaker 2: Toyota coolant. Not necessary, Steve, if you're still out there 397 00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:02,679 Speaker 2: listening Peak Peak Original Equipment Technology coolant. Peak makes a 398 00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:05,840 Speaker 2: complete line of coolants and anti freezes. You can purchase 399 00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:09,680 Speaker 2: their Peak Original Equipment Technology coolant for your Toyota. It'll 400 00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 2: tell you right on the bottle that it's rated for 401 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:13,960 Speaker 2: your Toyota. It's got the same inhibitors, it's got the 402 00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:16,679 Speaker 2: same additives. You know, keep in mind, Toyota does not 403 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:21,720 Speaker 2: manufacture coolant. They go to manufacturers like Peak to help 404 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 2: produce the same coolans that you're buying in the Toyota label. 405 00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:26,280 Speaker 2: So Peak coolant will work just as well and in 406 00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 2: some cases better because they've got the freedom to engineer 407 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:31,600 Speaker 2: it to a higher standard or to a better standard 408 00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:36,080 Speaker 2: to meet different different manufacturing needs. So just be aware 409 00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 2: of that. Tom, you had a comment. 410 00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:38,919 Speaker 6: You know, Yeah, I was just going to say, you know, 411 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:40,680 Speaker 6: before we went to the break, you were talking about 412 00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:43,159 Speaker 6: how you're trying to replace your cell phone, and a 413 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:45,560 Speaker 6: number of years ago, I was trying to replace all 414 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 6: music player, horrible music player, and it was obvious what 415 00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:51,280 Speaker 6: the problem was. The thing was puffed. It had a 416 00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:54,920 Speaker 6: pregnant battery. It needed a battery. So I go through 417 00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 6: this whole laborate procedure and send it into them, and 418 00:19:57,600 --> 00:19:59,600 Speaker 6: they send it back and they go, can't fix it's 419 00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:05,639 Speaker 6: gotten problem, no kidding. The battery was bad. So I 420 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:07,680 Speaker 6: bought a kit, I bought a battery, and I bought 421 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:09,159 Speaker 6: a kit to open it up, and I replaced the 422 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 6: battery and got another five years out of it. 423 00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:13,320 Speaker 2: You know, Well, and that's my point, Tom, you know 424 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 2: I think about it just came to me that, you know, 425 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:19,760 Speaker 2: the electric vehicle revolution is going to be it's for 426 00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:21,320 Speaker 2: what they're saying, it's going to be as big as 427 00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:24,240 Speaker 2: the cell phone revolution. It's going to have to be, right, 428 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 2: because how many people drive cars? How many people And 429 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:28,720 Speaker 2: there's still people I know that don't have cell phones, 430 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:30,840 Speaker 2: and I think that they number less than the people 431 00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:33,760 Speaker 2: that don't have cars. And and I couldn't get this 432 00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 2: guy off the script. He kept reading the same thing, 433 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:38,720 Speaker 2: and I said, listen, I know this is going to 434 00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 2: cost me a deducted Yeah, well it is. I know 435 00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:44,240 Speaker 2: it's going to cost me a deductible. I know it's 436 00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:45,880 Speaker 2: going to cost me money. I just need a fun 437 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:49,200 Speaker 2: Well we can repair the phone. Well, then this person 438 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:51,600 Speaker 2: will be without a phone. Well yeah, well this person 439 00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:54,720 Speaker 2: is diabetic and it has hearing aids, so they need 440 00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:58,719 Speaker 2: the phone in order to live. You know, what are 441 00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:01,399 Speaker 2: we supposed to do? There's no Oh, I tell you, 442 00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:04,520 Speaker 2: it's just it's crazy, it really is. It's so you know, 443 00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:09,000 Speaker 2: Sweden's electrifying their roads. Imagine if we start electrifying roads here, 444 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:11,760 Speaker 2: how long will that take? Well, we only got fifteen years. 445 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:14,800 Speaker 6: That actually sounds like a good idea. I know a 446 00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:16,600 Speaker 6: lot of people who I'd like to say, why don't 447 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 6: you cross the street? 448 00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:19,800 Speaker 2: It's electrified as I'm hitting you with the host Let's 449 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:22,680 Speaker 2: go over to line one. Let's talk to Pete and Florida. Pete, 450 00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 2: welcome to the car doctor, sir, how can I help. 451 00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:31,320 Speaker 5: Hey? I had told the fellows that answered that I 452 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:36,240 Speaker 5: have a twenty eighteen accurate RDX, and I had a 453 00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 5: couple of episodes with your conditioning. After driving all morning, yeah, 454 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 5: at the office, getting the car to head home, your 455 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:51,320 Speaker 5: conditioner is not blowing cold air. So you know, turn 456 00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:53,679 Speaker 5: the car off, turn everything off, turn it back on, 457 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:57,760 Speaker 5: the same thing as it's blowing higher. So get home 458 00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:00,399 Speaker 5: and I, you know, of course, thinking about it tomorrow, 459 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:03,399 Speaker 5: I'm gonna have to figure this out. And get in 460 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:07,359 Speaker 5: the car and it blows cold air. And it did 461 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:12,720 Speaker 5: for three or four weeks. Went out of town on 462 00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:17,720 Speaker 5: a short trip, stop for fuel, the get back in 463 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:23,879 Speaker 5: the car, the air condition doesn't work. Drive to the 464 00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:28,119 Speaker 5: to the destination, drive home, same thing, you know, thinking, 465 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:30,720 Speaker 5: you know, I gotta figure this out in the morning, 466 00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:33,760 Speaker 5: Get in the car in the morning, and it's boone 467 00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:38,760 Speaker 5: cold air for since which has been three or four weeks. 468 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:45,560 Speaker 2: So right now it's working. Yes, And your question to 469 00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:50,479 Speaker 2: me is what caused it? Yes, you're right. What caused it? 470 00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:52,720 Speaker 2: I can tell you. I can tell you. I can 471 00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:54,479 Speaker 2: tell you in order of price. I can tell you 472 00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:57,919 Speaker 2: an order of pattern failure. What what the high priorities become? 473 00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:01,199 Speaker 2: You know they they still had some issues with the 474 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:04,560 Speaker 2: air conditioning main relay in the underhood fuse box. They 475 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 2: were intermittent. If you take it into your mechanic, ask 476 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:11,240 Speaker 2: him to id which of the relays in the underhood 477 00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:15,119 Speaker 2: fuse box is the AC compressor relay. It will have 478 00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:18,159 Speaker 2: a similar part number. I believe the fog light relay 479 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:21,200 Speaker 2: is the same part number. You can swap the two 480 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:23,000 Speaker 2: of them, mark one of them with an x C. 481 00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:25,479 Speaker 2: You know which is which, and see if the problem 482 00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:28,520 Speaker 2: ever comes back. That was that was a semi common issue. 483 00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:34,520 Speaker 2: The other thing is AC compressor relay underhood fuse block 484 00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:38,879 Speaker 2: should be there in eighteen now you know, the sooner 485 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:41,040 Speaker 2: you get him to scan it. Just for giggles, there 486 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:43,159 Speaker 2: may be a fault code in the body system or 487 00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:46,800 Speaker 2: the HVAC system module telling you what was going on. 488 00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:50,720 Speaker 2: The other thing that's a possibility. Go ahead. 489 00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:56,840 Speaker 5: So maybe the dealer is two hours away, right, and 490 00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:59,320 Speaker 5: I've taken it for every service to the dealers, sir, 491 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:04,400 Speaker 5: if I went to Advanced DAUGHT or a Wiley, they 492 00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:05,159 Speaker 5: read your. 493 00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:09,640 Speaker 2: No, they're gonna they're just gonna read OBD two FOULT codes. 494 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:13,879 Speaker 2: They're not gonna do a whole system scan. Okay, you 495 00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:17,320 Speaker 2: know it sounds like listen, and I'm gonna surprise you. 496 00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:19,679 Speaker 2: If you've got a relationship with your accurate dealer that 497 00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:22,720 Speaker 2: you're happy with them, I'm gonna tell you they're worth 498 00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:24,679 Speaker 2: the two hour ride. I would go in, explain what 499 00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:27,240 Speaker 2: they're Explain everything the way you explained it to me. 500 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:31,119 Speaker 2: It's working fine. Now you could mention that you and 501 00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:33,880 Speaker 2: I talked what's the validity of swapping the relay? Because 502 00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:37,800 Speaker 2: that was a common failure, all right, especially an intermittent 503 00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 2: common failure. Honda did have bulletins out about that relay 504 00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:46,480 Speaker 2: being a problem as far back as eleven and twelve. 505 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:48,879 Speaker 2: But I still see them to this day. I still 506 00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 2: see the problem. It's like the vendor never went away, 507 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:53,360 Speaker 2: and I believe it was a vendor problem. I think 508 00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:57,320 Speaker 2: it was a Midsuba relay, if I remember, right. The 509 00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:00,119 Speaker 2: other thing that's kind of common on Honda's not so 510 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:03,439 Speaker 2: much on Accuras, but more on the crvs UH and 511 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:07,080 Speaker 2: the accords is the compressors themselves. The field coils go bad, 512 00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:10,160 Speaker 2: you know, and they will overheat and they will produce 513 00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 2: an intermittent failure. So the easiest, the easiest thing is 514 00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:16,080 Speaker 2: if it does happen again. If you're familiar with where 515 00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:18,879 Speaker 2: the AC compressor is down low on the passenger side, 516 00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:23,679 Speaker 2: you know, is the clutch engaged, you know, it's it's 517 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:26,080 Speaker 2: and from the sounds of it, it sounds like it's 518 00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:29,720 Speaker 2: not all right. It's it sounds like the compressor is 519 00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:32,439 Speaker 2: off for some reason. It's not. Let me ask you 520 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 2: this one question. You're saying, it's blowing warm air. Does 521 00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:40,000 Speaker 2: air come out at the same volume and level as 522 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 2: it does when the AC works? 523 00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:47,960 Speaker 5: I think so, thanks, So it's just just does. 524 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:49,680 Speaker 2: It feel like restricted airflow? 525 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 5: You know, the last time was through fur weeks ago, 526 00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:58,719 Speaker 5: so honestly, you know, it can't give you an accurate anager, right, 527 00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:06,120 Speaker 5: But my vague recollection is that there was no restriction 528 00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 5: in regards to the airflows. 529 00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:11,520 Speaker 2: The reason I say that or ask that is do 530 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:13,560 Speaker 2: and I don't think so. But I you know, my 531 00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:15,879 Speaker 2: job is to manage expectations and get you to the 532 00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:17,720 Speaker 2: middle of the problem as fast as I can, if 533 00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:19,800 Speaker 2: not to the end. You know, do we have an 534 00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:23,440 Speaker 2: evaporator that's freezing up? But you would have said to me, ron, 535 00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:27,520 Speaker 2: I had lower air flow, but it it was lukewarm air. 536 00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:30,240 Speaker 2: It wouldn't have been hot air or you know, warmer air. 537 00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:33,720 Speaker 2: I think you would have described it differently. So, but 538 00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:35,400 Speaker 2: you know, keep that in the back of your mind 539 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:37,440 Speaker 2: as well. For some reason, do we have the compressor 540 00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:41,399 Speaker 2: not cycling properly causing the system to go into an 541 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:45,439 Speaker 2: evaporator that's freezing up, creating a restriction? So but you know, 542 00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:48,080 Speaker 2: down to the dealer, off to the dealer, swap the 543 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:51,280 Speaker 2: relay read codes, what do they have on intermittence? What 544 00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:54,440 Speaker 2: have they seen? All right? And at least you start 545 00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:56,240 Speaker 2: a case with them, and if it happens again, you know, 546 00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:58,080 Speaker 2: they can maybe point out to you to tell if 547 00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:01,080 Speaker 2: the compressors on or not. Now will give you more information. 548 00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:03,760 Speaker 2: If they find out that the compressor is not on 549 00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:07,400 Speaker 2: and they want to, they could wire in a sidemark 550 00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 2: or bulb to the compressor feed, put it inside the car. 551 00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:12,639 Speaker 2: If the compressor's on, the bulb is lit. That might 552 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:15,320 Speaker 2: be annoying to look at at night, though, But that's 553 00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:17,639 Speaker 2: sort of step two and three down the line. Do 554 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:19,720 Speaker 2: the first part first, call me back if you need more, 555 00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:21,080 Speaker 2: and I'll be glad to walk you through the rest 556 00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:23,040 Speaker 2: of it. Pete, I'm running any in the car doctor. 557 00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:38,400 Speaker 2: We're returning right after this, just taking welcome back, run 558 00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:41,800 Speaker 2: any of the car doctor. Let's first, let's answer the email. 559 00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:43,359 Speaker 2: This comes to us from Fred and Iowa Roun. I 560 00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:45,240 Speaker 2: was listening to a previous hour and you're a caller. 561 00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:48,760 Speaker 2: Dandy from Mexico called in about a sixty seven Plymouth Valiant. 562 00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:52,200 Speaker 2: I have all that at DIY on your recommendation. Good, yeah, listen. 563 00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:54,080 Speaker 2: I think all that at DIY makes sense. I think 564 00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:58,000 Speaker 2: if you're working on cars, I think that's an absolute positivity. 565 00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 2: I have all that at DIY. I don't have access 566 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:02,600 Speaker 2: to sixty seven Plymouth valuant wiring, but couldn't he look 567 00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 2: it up and see what sort of wiring issues he's 568 00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:07,240 Speaker 2: having on all that at DIY? Do they go that 569 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 2: far back? Fred? You know what? Fred? Yeah, they do 570 00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:12,480 Speaker 2: all that at DIY goes back quite far. I think 571 00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:14,760 Speaker 2: it goes back into the early sixties, if not the 572 00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:17,080 Speaker 2: late fifties. And it gives you the option, if you're 573 00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 2: working on one particular car on a regular basis, to 574 00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:23,880 Speaker 2: get actual correct service information just like the manufacturer would 575 00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:27,320 Speaker 2: send out to the dealerships, you know, on classics as 576 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:30,320 Speaker 2: well as modern day vehicles. And it's cheap, you know what. 577 00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:33,439 Speaker 2: I think their three year subscription plan is under one 578 00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:35,960 Speaker 2: hundred and thirty bucks now for three years, I think 579 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:37,920 Speaker 2: it comes down to three or four dollars a month. 580 00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:39,840 Speaker 2: If you're working on cars today, you need that kind 581 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:44,240 Speaker 2: of information. It's an absolute positivity. And you know, yeah, 582 00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:46,120 Speaker 2: and Fred, you make some good points, right, you know 583 00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:48,560 Speaker 2: it's it's it's even though we all think, well, we 584 00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:52,000 Speaker 2: need service information, we're driving newer cars. You know, you 585 00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:54,600 Speaker 2: need service information on everything. And in Danny's case, he 586 00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:57,040 Speaker 2: needed it for something old and I'm sure it's there 587 00:28:57,080 --> 00:28:59,960 Speaker 2: and their wiring diagrams, because his issue was all about, 588 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:04,880 Speaker 2: you know, bypassing the resistor, the starting resistor, does he 589 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:06,720 Speaker 2: use it or not? Did he have the correct coil? 590 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:09,520 Speaker 2: And that was more of a parts issue that he 591 00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:11,240 Speaker 2: had going on there, Fred, and for everybody else if 592 00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:14,000 Speaker 2: they remember the call, you know what parts go with what, 593 00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:15,880 Speaker 2: and it's it's just so important to be able to 594 00:29:15,880 --> 00:29:17,760 Speaker 2: look things up. And I think we got them going 595 00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:20,160 Speaker 2: in the right direction. Danny, if you're still listening, you 596 00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:22,440 Speaker 2: consider going out to All Data dot Com. I think 597 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:27,000 Speaker 2: it's all Data dot com slash di y and you 598 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:30,160 Speaker 2: know you can log in and you know, on a 599 00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 2: subscription basis, and you know, do what you have to do. 600 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:37,360 Speaker 2: So but Fred, I appreciate the appreciate the question. Electric 601 00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:40,480 Speaker 2: trucks worse than diesel trucks? Yeah, it could be. Article 602 00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:44,440 Speaker 2: by Dominic Peno up online we found on talks about 603 00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:47,680 Speaker 2: from Freight Waves and a newsletter from Freight Waves. They 604 00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:51,120 Speaker 2: write about diesel trucks and electric trucks and it's interesting 605 00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:53,520 Speaker 2: to see the comparison and some of the things they 606 00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:57,440 Speaker 2: talk about. And this is from the trucking industry. Right 607 00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:00,400 Speaker 2: they say price an electric truck costs one hundred and 608 00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:03,200 Speaker 2: eighty five thousand dollars. Diesel trucks are about half that. 609 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:06,920 Speaker 2: Refueling Filling up a diesel truck takes about fifteen minutes. 610 00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:11,120 Speaker 2: Recharging an electric truck takes hours infrastructure in California, because 611 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:13,520 Speaker 2: they were centered on the California issue that they're saying 612 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:16,960 Speaker 2: no more diesel trucks. Where was that in the article? 613 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:17,640 Speaker 5: It said. 614 00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:23,360 Speaker 2: California regulation will require all trucks that operate near ports 615 00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:27,000 Speaker 2: to be zero emissions. So these are drages zero emissions 616 00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:30,120 Speaker 2: starting next year. The entire drage fleet is required to 617 00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:32,120 Speaker 2: be zero emissions by twenty thirty five, and people in 618 00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:34,200 Speaker 2: the trucking industry and the utility industry, I'm quite sure 619 00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:37,080 Speaker 2: how that's going to happen. They were talking about infrastructure. 620 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:40,440 Speaker 2: California needs eleven point five gigawatts of new electric capacity 621 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:42,720 Speaker 2: by twenty twenty six to meet the needs, which is 622 00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:46,440 Speaker 2: difficult to accomplish because of the state's other environmental regulations. Weight. 623 00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:49,680 Speaker 2: Electric trucks are heavier than diesel trucks capacity. As a 624 00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:53,000 Speaker 2: consequence of being heavier, electric trucks don't carry or can't 625 00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 2: carry as much freight as diesel. The head of the 626 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:57,600 Speaker 2: trade Association for California, so that the companies will need 627 00:30:57,600 --> 00:30:59,520 Speaker 2: to double the size of their fleets just to hold 628 00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:01,680 Speaker 2: the same amount of freight that they currently do. And 629 00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:03,400 Speaker 2: this is the one that kind of struck the nerve 630 00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:07,120 Speaker 2: with me cost. As a result of being worse at 631 00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:10,800 Speaker 2: moving stuff, electric trucks will impose higher costs throughout the 632 00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 2: supply chain than diesel trucks do, which could in the 633 00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:17,239 Speaker 2: end to raise consumer prices. Yeah. I never thought of that, right, 634 00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 2: It's going to cost more to move componentry or product 635 00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:24,920 Speaker 2: the supply chain and you know it's but yeah, that's 636 00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:29,160 Speaker 2: up online. Where did they find that? This was National 637 00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:31,960 Speaker 2: Review the corner. Electric trucks are worse than diesel trucks. 638 00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:34,400 Speaker 2: You'll find it up there. This is dated May twenty 639 00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:37,120 Speaker 2: fifth of this year, so it's a current article out 640 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:40,680 Speaker 2: and about. So just food for thought. The electric insanity continues. 641 00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:43,360 Speaker 2: Eight five five five six zero nine nine zero zero. 642 00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:45,400 Speaker 2: I'm running any in the car, doctor, and I'll return 643 00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:59,560 Speaker 2: right after this. Don't go away, welcome back, running any 644 00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:02,200 Speaker 2: of the car eight five five five six zero nine 645 00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:04,120 Speaker 2: nine zero zero.

I never thought of 674 00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:10,960 Speaker 2: it like this and I heard the Nhou spot run before. 675 00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:13,400 Speaker 2: We had a vehicle this week that we had to 676 00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:15,160 Speaker 2: get ready for summer. It's going to go up to 677 00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:16,760 Speaker 2: a farmer's field. It's going to sit out in the 678 00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:20,719 Speaker 2: field all summer long. It's a pickup truck, and you know, 679 00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:22,640 Speaker 2: it's just they wanted to go through. We serviced it 680 00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:25,160 Speaker 2: oil and filters and fluids and things like that. It's 681 00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:27,600 Speaker 2: going to go work on a farm this summer. And 682 00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:30,640 Speaker 2: I realized, I said, you know, this vehicle is going 683 00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:32,400 Speaker 2: to be sitting out in the field most of the summer. 684 00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:34,320 Speaker 2: It's going to be driven sporadically. It's kind of like 685 00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:38,680 Speaker 2: a backup farm vehicle out in the farmers field. NHO 686 00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:41,960 Speaker 2: you treated it. You know, it had the Nhou oil 687 00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:45,840 Speaker 2: treatment about eight nine months ago, and we wanted to 688 00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 2: I looked at it and I said, you know, it 689 00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:49,240 Speaker 2: doesn't need the whole treatment, but it could use a 690 00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:52,440 Speaker 2: little touch up. But to touch it up, I used 691 00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:55,880 Speaker 2: NHOU mouse out in a little aerosol can, not a 692 00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:58,280 Speaker 2: little aerosol can. Full size aerosol can, you know, twelve 693 00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:01,120 Speaker 2: ounces of sixteen ounces whatever it is, which is great. 694 00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:03,200 Speaker 2: I didn't have to get out the big gun. I 695 00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:05,480 Speaker 2: didn't to go through the host process or the TAIAX suit. 696 00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:08,520 Speaker 2: I was able to in the corners that I actually 697 00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:10,839 Speaker 2: saw now that some of the spots you can't get 698 00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:12,839 Speaker 2: with the bigger spray gun. It's a nice touch up. 699 00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:15,960 Speaker 2: It's a nice it's a nice way to finish up 700 00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:18,080 Speaker 2: and give it a quick fresh code. I put some 701 00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:21,080 Speaker 2: Nhou mouse out in the corners of this vehicle where 702 00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:23,160 Speaker 2: the animals will tend to nest. It was still wet 703 00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:25,560 Speaker 2: in the other portions that we had treated back in 704 00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:29,719 Speaker 2: the back in the fall in August September, but Nhou 705 00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:32,800 Speaker 2: mouse Out is now available in an aerosol spray sized 706 00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:35,359 Speaker 2: can as well as some many of their other back 707 00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:37,719 Speaker 2: in black and some of their other oil treatment products. 708 00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:39,839 Speaker 2: But I tell you what, I love that mouse out. 709 00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:42,080 Speaker 2: It just works really great. That smell just drives the 710 00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:44,400 Speaker 2: critters away. And I know that pickup truck will be 711 00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:46,359 Speaker 2: safer in the farmer's field with it than it will 712 00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:48,640 Speaker 2: be without it.
