1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: The following program has been prerecorded Ron and a number one. 2 00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:06,680 Speaker 1: Things are very mechanical. Back then, we could fix the 3 00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:09,119 Speaker 1: vehicle and you're in mom's garage. You know. We had 4 00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:11,000 Speaker 1: to go by tools, but we could do it. The 5 00:00:11,039 --> 00:00:15,520 Speaker 1: electronics weren't there. Now today it's just such a different thing. 6 00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:19,400 Speaker 1: And does the vehicle by definition of his complexity prevent 7 00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:22,280 Speaker 1: kids from getting involved? Is it's so overwhelming to them? 8 00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:34,720 Speaker 1: Can't bring me the car doctor. The most important thing 9 00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:37,960 Speaker 1: about an anpmeter is that it has to have the 10 00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:41,480 Speaker 1: capacity equal to that of the alternator. What's the range 11 00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:43,560 Speaker 1: of the gauge? Where does it go to? From what to? Would? 12 00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:46,320 Speaker 1: I think? All right? Do you know what the alternator 13 00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:50,159 Speaker 1: out charging output of your alternator? That? All right? Well 14 00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:52,720 Speaker 1: you have to know for sure. Welcome to the radio 15 00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:57,120 Speaker 1: home of Ron and Anian the Car Doctor, since this 16 00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 1: is where car owners the world overturned to for their 17 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:04,640 Speaker 1: definitive opinion on automotive repair. If your mechanics giving you 18 00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:07,440 Speaker 1: a busy signal, pick up the phone and call in 19 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:10,520 Speaker 1: the garage to orders are open, but I am here 20 00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:14,039 Speaker 1: to take your calls. At eight five five five, And 21 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 1: now I walked through the Lincoln running ho and a 22 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 1: little bit of seasons. Greetings and welcome everybody. UM, a 23 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:28,319 Speaker 1: lot to talk about this hour and next how where 24 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:29,880 Speaker 1: we've got a lot going on as we always do. 25 00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:32,199 Speaker 1: Real quick. I want to start off with this story 26 00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:35,880 Speaker 1: and it's it's sort of a um, it goes against 27 00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:37,600 Speaker 1: what it says. It doesn't make any sense to me. 28 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:39,400 Speaker 1: There was a story that's come out in the news lately, 29 00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:42,440 Speaker 1: and if you're not aware, General Motors is at it again, 30 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 1: they're uh, kind of confused. They've discontinued the on Star 31 00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 1: phone feature and what that means is effective February of 32 00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 1: next year or so I'm let to believe they are 33 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 1: going to discontinue the hands free calling feature on your 34 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 1: on Star divice. So if you've got a GM vehicle 35 00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:05,840 Speaker 1: that's got on Star and you're purchasing hands free calling minutes, 36 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,720 Speaker 1: then GM is doing away with that. And I found 37 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 1: out about this first hand myself my two thousand four suburban. 38 00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:16,359 Speaker 1: I still use my on Star. I liked it, it worked, 39 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 1: it did what it was supposed to do, and I 40 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 1: went to update some of the calling minutes this past 41 00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 1: week and I was informed by two separate on Star 42 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:27,520 Speaker 1: advisors that they're doing away with it. I went and 43 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:29,680 Speaker 1: did some research and I came up with an article 44 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 1: that's actually dated two years ago July that General Motors 45 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,839 Speaker 1: is discontinued it's on Star phone feature. Otherwise. Notice hands 46 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 1: free calling. The feature was first made available in the 47 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:43,680 Speaker 1: late nineties, making it the first built in calling feature 48 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 1: provided by an automaker in the market. And this comes 49 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:49,440 Speaker 1: off of one of the g M I think it's 50 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 1: GM Authority dot com the blog and then there's and 51 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:57,880 Speaker 1: this is dated. This is actually dated um uh this year. 52 00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:01,360 Speaker 1: Now there's an update that they've been told that the 53 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 1: hands free calling will remain active for model year or 54 00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 1: older vehicles. I don't think GM knows what they're doing. 55 00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 1: I think they're confused. Uh. And I only tell you 56 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:11,240 Speaker 1: this because I want you to be aware that if 57 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,320 Speaker 1: you've got an older GM vehicle with on Star and 58 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 1: hands free calling, you may be out of a phone. 59 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 1: And you know, the article does point out and I 60 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 1: think they're right that, yes, more people have smartphones now 61 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 1: and you know, the idea of a phone built into 62 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 1: the vehicle is a little dated. But as I pointed 63 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 1: out to the advisors that I spoke with, I said, 64 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 1: you know in some cases as a backup, but I 65 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 1: guess there's not enough people utilizing it, so they're just 66 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 1: doing away with it. And but you know, it's kind 67 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 1: of frustrating, right, You've got it perfectly working, perfectly, good system. 68 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:51,200 Speaker 1: And it just got me to thinking about newer vehicles. 69 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 1: You know, when they want to get rid of something, 70 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 1: when they want something to go, it just goes. It 71 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 1: just will. And you know, I take this out, I 72 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 1: extrapulate this out further and I say to myself, when 73 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 1: they want to get rid of the cars, they're just 74 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 1: gonna make parts unavailable. We had an O six Honda 75 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 1: Accord in the shop this week that the power seat, 76 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:18,200 Speaker 1: the driver's side power seat was stuck it. It wouldn't 77 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 1: recline properly. The new owner just got the vehicle and 78 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: even and they thought they could drive it with the 79 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 1: broken seat, and they said, well, you know what, let 80 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:26,880 Speaker 1: me let me see if I can get it fixed. 81 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 1: They brought it into us and we looked at it 82 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 1: and the seat, the upper seat frame is bad. There 83 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 1: there's a ratchet mechanism that allows the seat to pivot 84 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:42,240 Speaker 1: and it jammed and it failed. I called Honda and 85 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 1: I spoke to them, and I knew the part was 86 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: gonna be on back order. I just knew it it 87 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 1: it always is, and I sure enough I was it 88 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 1: was right. The part is on back order. It's still available. 89 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:58,080 Speaker 1: It was for a seat frame and then you have 90 00:04:58,120 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 1: to build the seat and that's just half the seat. 91 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 1: The base, if you need a base, was nine, but 92 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 1: that's obsolete. And the piece that we do need, the upper, 93 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:10,480 Speaker 1: is on back order and no scheduled released it. You 94 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 1: want to bet it just disappears completely. And I said 95 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 1: to myself, this is how they're gonna get rid of 96 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 1: cars right there, just gonna make things obsolete and we 97 00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:20,359 Speaker 1: just won't be able to get certain parts. And you 98 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 1: know that's that's gonna be how we make some of 99 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 1: this transition over to other vehicles. I'll say it like that. Um, 100 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:30,839 Speaker 1: but I look at this on Star thing. I go 101 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,280 Speaker 1: back to that and I say, how can they get 102 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,040 Speaker 1: rid of that? And it's funny, right, the the on 103 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 1: Star reps we're trying to sell me to get me 104 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 1: to keep the on Star because I said, well, you 105 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:42,160 Speaker 1: might as well cancel the account. If I can't use 106 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 1: my hands free phone, then what's left? And they said, well, 107 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 1: you know, in the event of a crash, we do 108 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:49,720 Speaker 1: have air big deployment notification for you know, the local authorities. 109 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:52,600 Speaker 1: And I said, well, if everybody has a smartphone like 110 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:54,680 Speaker 1: you're saying they do, why do I need to have 111 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,479 Speaker 1: the vehicle dial out. I want somebody on a cell 112 00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 1: phone call nine one one and send them to me 113 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,720 Speaker 1: the first place. But not to mention I go. I 114 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 1: go three miles a day each way. I don't know 115 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 1: that I necessarily need air bag deployment information for whatever 116 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 1: it is. Fifty bucks a month, that's probably a little crazy, Um, 117 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:14,040 Speaker 1: But get ready. Technology is gonna change. Technology is gonna 118 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,360 Speaker 1: change how we do things and how we approach things, 119 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:20,040 Speaker 1: and it's it's going to make things very different. And 120 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 1: you know, we've we've got to be aware of this. 121 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 1: We've got to be ready for this. So for on Star. 122 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 1: And you know I ended up by the way I 123 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 1: ended up fixing the Honda or I've I've solved it 124 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 1: to a point. I called my local salvage guy, um 125 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:36,359 Speaker 1: who does all our salvage parts, and Chris is gonna 126 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:40,360 Speaker 1: find He found me a Honda seat O Sixanda accord. 127 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 1: He found me another seat and it'll be here sometime 128 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 1: midweek next week, and we'll just we're probably gonna swap 129 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:49,040 Speaker 1: over the seat covers so we you know, it matches. 130 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 1: And also I'm sure the seat covers are gonna be 131 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 1: kind of beat up, but at least the frame there, 132 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 1: the reclining mechanism will work. And I said to myself, 133 00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 1: I bet, I bet with the way cars are going, 134 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 1: you know, the advent of technology and the way things 135 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 1: are going to um uh you know, become I think 136 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 1: confused in the coming years between electrics and the way 137 00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:13,920 Speaker 1: they're gonna phase out some of the other cars. I 138 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 1: bet you this salvage yard business is going to pick 139 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 1: up again and become much more active and you know, 140 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:24,120 Speaker 1: much more in demand. And we're starting to see reasons 141 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 1: for that in the last couple of weeks alone. So 142 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 1: it's just something to be aware of, something to look 143 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: forward to. Um you know. But a lot of changes, 144 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 1: a lot of changes coming. We're almost done with the 145 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,240 Speaker 1: Monte Carlo. Keep meaning to talk about this too. We've 146 00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 1: got this eighty five Monte Carlo in the shop that 147 00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 1: you know, and here's another car we can't get parts four. Okay, 148 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 1: although be it it's older, but it is a little 149 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 1: bit of a classic on eighty five Monte Carlo SS 150 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 1: and it's got some break issues that the owner had 151 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 1: tried to repair the brakes on his own, and uh, 152 00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 1: you know, he got into deep and I guess that's 153 00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 1: the lesson here, right. He started to you know, he 154 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 1: wanted to make his brakes better, so he put Corvette 155 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 1: breaks on it all the way around. And I think 156 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:09,160 Speaker 1: I've talked about this car. Uh, probably in the last 157 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: two months or so. We were, you know, talking about 158 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 1: some of the things we were doing to it. Adam 159 00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 1: had replaced all the calipers, he upgraded or he thought 160 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 1: he was upgrading, the break booster, he changed the master cylinder, 161 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:23,640 Speaker 1: and in general just kind of made a mess of it, 162 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 1: I don't know any other way to say it, you know, nicely. 163 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 1: And we ended up solving a lot of the problems. 164 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 1: Well today, as a matter of fact, we just solved 165 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:34,160 Speaker 1: the last one. We got down to the part where 166 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 1: we were done with it. We got a pedal. We 167 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 1: had brakes, but every once in a while the pedal 168 00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:41,040 Speaker 1: would drop while you're driving. It would just you know, 169 00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 1: kind of creep down to the floor. You know, cars 170 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 1: are tough in the sense that they will play on 171 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 1: your mind if you let them get into your head. 172 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:51,480 Speaker 1: And I thought about it for a couple of days, 173 00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:53,439 Speaker 1: and I said, if this was any other car that 174 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 1: didn't know any of the history, and I had a 175 00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 1: sinking brake pedal, what would I do? And it came 176 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 1: act too. I'd verify the master cylinder. I'd make sure 177 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:07,199 Speaker 1: that system hydraulics, the basic hydraulics are there. And in 178 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:11,080 Speaker 1: this case, when I spoke to the owner, he told me, 179 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:14,680 Speaker 1: you know where he had gotten the Master cylinder from, 180 00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:18,440 Speaker 1: and not a great brand. I suspect it's actually a 181 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 1: rebuilt Master, not a new Master. So I said, you know, 182 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 1: for the price of a Master cylinder, let's let's toss 183 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,079 Speaker 1: this and start over with something fresh from a known 184 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 1: good entity. You know what, I guess, right, And I 185 00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:34,560 Speaker 1: guess sometimes I do that. That's why I get to 186 00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:37,320 Speaker 1: be here in the big chair. And uh, you know, 187 00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 1: we put another Master on it today and now we 188 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 1: have a consistent pedal. I wish it was a little higher. 189 00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 1: But I also suspect that this vehicle has an incorrect 190 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 1: break proportioning valve in it, and that's up to the owner. 191 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:52,319 Speaker 1: I've got to I've got to draw the line. He's 192 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:53,599 Speaker 1: gonna do some of these things on his own. He 193 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 1: just wanted me to get a pedal for him. He's 194 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 1: got a pedal. It works, it's drivable, it's very drivable. 195 00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:00,560 Speaker 1: But now you know to tune it so to speak, 196 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:02,720 Speaker 1: and play with it a little bit. I'll leave that 197 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 1: completely up to him. But um, just some of the 198 00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:07,080 Speaker 1: things you gotta go through, right, It's just it just 199 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:10,680 Speaker 1: becomes much more, much more involved. Hey, this hour, we're 200 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 1: going to be giving away a twenty five dollar gift 201 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,560 Speaker 1: card from the folks at Orileyota Parts.

Yes? Um our two thousand sixteen 230 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:43,640 Speaker 1: m CAZy um, m kay excuse me um. In the summertime, 231 00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:49,080 Speaker 1: it started between like sixty. Every once in a while 232 00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:52,760 Speaker 1: it feel like it would slept. We thought it was transmission. 233 00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:56,600 Speaker 1: There was also a vibration and they replaced a They 234 00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:58,680 Speaker 1: said it was a drive shaft. It was a shaft 235 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 1: about four ft long. Didn't really look like a drive cheft, 236 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:06,040 Speaker 1: but um, and the sense of got cold. It was 237 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:09,720 Speaker 1: acting good. The other day, Um, my wife had it 238 00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:13,600 Speaker 1: and the little wrench came on, which I was, don't 239 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:18,199 Speaker 1: drive meets to write the service indicator. That's their way 240 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 1: of telling you something's broken. Right, So what would happen 241 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 1: is when she would stop at she was just bringing 242 00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:28,600 Speaker 1: it home, she would stopping to stop sign and it 243 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 1: would like not want to go. She would put the 244 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 1: gas on. It really wouldn't rev, but then it would 245 00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 1: like kick in and kind of like jerk. So we 246 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:42,079 Speaker 1: brought it home, had a flat hole, got it there. Um, 247 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 1: of course all the everything was off and they said 248 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:52,000 Speaker 1: the only thing that Brad was at emergency brake was 249 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:54,959 Speaker 1: on or something like that, which we never even used 250 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 1: to the emergency break. How many miles, how many miles 251 00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 1: fixed out? Sixty thousand? Awful young of you having transmission issues? 252 00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 1: Is this still under any kind of warranty through Lincoln? 253 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:13,680 Speaker 1: Yeah it is so. So their position is what now 254 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:17,720 Speaker 1: there's nothing wrong with the car? Well, they're like bring 255 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 1: it back when at home. Basically, they told us, slip 256 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 1: that goes on again, drive it to the too place 257 00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:27,559 Speaker 1: and don't shut it off. But they said they can't. 258 00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:31,560 Speaker 1: They can't find anything unless they have a cold. Well 259 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,959 Speaker 1: can can? Can somebody drive it? It seems like if 260 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 1: the problem is going to act up, it seems like 261 00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:41,840 Speaker 1: they don't want it. They don't want to put any 262 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:43,840 Speaker 1: diagnostic time into it until they know if they've got 263 00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 1: a problem. See, this is what I don't understand about companies. 264 00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 1: For them to for them to and I'm listen, I'm 265 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:51,240 Speaker 1: not yelling at you. Don't just understand me, But why 266 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:53,840 Speaker 1: can't they dedicate? Why can't they dedicate an hour of 267 00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 1: diagnostic time, pay the tech for an hour, let him 268 00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:02,760 Speaker 1: rotest the vehicle and gather dead ata. You know, it's 269 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 1: funny car companies and a lot of repair shops will will. 270 00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:09,559 Speaker 1: They don't want to drive a vehicle unless it's broken. 271 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 1: Sometimes I like to look at a at a car 272 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:15,280 Speaker 1: that's running well so I can gather data and then 273 00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:19,160 Speaker 1: I'll know it's broken when it breaks. Maybe I see 274 00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:21,640 Speaker 1: things different. I don't know. Maybe I'm the odd duck. 275 00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 1: So my comment to you, Bill would be, can you 276 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 1: verify how much longer your warranty is an effect? Because 277 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 1: this car is what five years old? Now? Yeah, well, 278 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:37,880 Speaker 1: I gotta call Lincoln again because it's either four thousand miles, 279 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 1: but we at least it and then we bought it, 280 00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:44,760 Speaker 1: so supposedly we got an extended warranty untill I think 281 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:48,040 Speaker 1: two more years a hundred thousand Okay, because I tell 282 00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:49,840 Speaker 1: you to be sure, because you don't want to find 283 00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 1: that you ran out.

It may not have developed. 309 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 1: I'd be curious to see if there was something pending. 310 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:24,160 Speaker 1: I wonder how they checked codes. You know. The problem 311 00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:27,400 Speaker 1: with car companies I've learned over the years is they 312 00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:30,240 Speaker 1: don't think past their nose, for lack of a better 313 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:32,840 Speaker 1: way to put it.

Well, you're looking for a data recorder, 335 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 1: it would be in a scan tool. Now that the 336 00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:41,399 Speaker 1: key becomes if you can make the fault happen, and 337 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:43,440 Speaker 1: you've got to get the check engine light to pop on. 338 00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:46,359 Speaker 1: So do what he said, break the car, drive it 339 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:48,160 Speaker 1: till it stops, as long as you're in a safe 340 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:50,040 Speaker 1: position and you're not out on the highway somewhere and 341 00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 1: you're not running into an issue. But drive it till 342 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:54,360 Speaker 1: it stops, get the check engine light to come on, 343 00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:57,240 Speaker 1: and then they'll be data. Try not to turn the 344 00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 1: vehicle off, or if you get a toad, it should 345 00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:01,760 Speaker 1: still be there. If you get a toad relatively quick 346 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:03,800 Speaker 1: and yeah, you'll be all right. Drive until the chick 347 00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:05,720 Speaker 1: engine light comes on, Bill, But that's the best way, 348 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:08,160 Speaker 1: and then the fault will be there in freeze frame information. 349 00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:11,160 Speaker 1: So stay on the line that let Tom get your info.

I want to talk a little bit about 369 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:29,560 Speaker 1: what's new at MALA this year, but first I want 370 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:31,560 Speaker 1: to just get your first impression while I've got you. 371 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:35,040 Speaker 1: This was the first Vegas trade show SEEMA APEX in 372 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:37,239 Speaker 1: what two years because of the pandemic. Was this your 373 00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:40,040 Speaker 1: first year back since the pandemic started? Were you guys? 374 00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:44,080 Speaker 1: Were there was no uh on virtual? It was virtual 375 00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:47,920 Speaker 1: the year before correct? Yeah, exactly? And yeah, this year 376 00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:50,240 Speaker 1: we did go to APEX. There was a lot of 377 00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 1: people that didn't go. Um it wasn't very well attended 378 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:56,720 Speaker 1: the way I understood it especially didn't as send APEX 379 00:19:56,800 --> 00:20:01,639 Speaker 1: this year. I wasn't able to. But yeah, it's uh 380 00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:06,159 Speaker 1: hopefully it's will rebuild a little bit. Um. So, so 381 00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:09,159 Speaker 1: Apex is still well not Apex, but the pandemic is 382 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:13,120 Speaker 1: still affecting the industry at trade shows. That's that's interesting that. 383 00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:16,360 Speaker 1: Uh yeah, I mean I think it's also affecting companies, 384 00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:18,919 Speaker 1: you know. I mean, you know, different policies about travel 385 00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:21,280 Speaker 1: and you know, only travel when necessary, things like this, 386 00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:25,880 Speaker 1: trying to keep employees safe, so probably factors in. So 387 00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:27,920 Speaker 1: how are you, you know, to get into the nuts 388 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 1: and bolts of it, how are you doing business? You're 389 00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:34,879 Speaker 1: doing everything virtual? Then? Yeah, yeah, basically a lot of 390 00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:37,520 Speaker 1: it is virtual. I mean, of course not every day 391 00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 1: because you know, we have products to evaluate and uh, 392 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,480 Speaker 1: processes to work on and things like this. But you know, 393 00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:45,679 Speaker 1: when when I'm not in the office, I'm definitely my 394 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:47,960 Speaker 1: home office and I'm kind of getting used to it. 395 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:51,720 Speaker 1: You're kind of starting to like it. Right, Uh, don't 396 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 1: don't tell the boss, so don't don't play in this interview, right. Um. 397 00:20:57,320 --> 00:20:59,000 Speaker 1: And by the way, I've got to give you guys 398 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:01,400 Speaker 1: a pat on the backup. You're on there the the 399 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:05,199 Speaker 1: video library that you've got at um.

I think that's a great idea, uh, you know, 405 00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:20,240 Speaker 1: to be able to get training on the different machines 406 00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:22,800 Speaker 1: and some of the features and the benefits. You know, 407 00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 1: that just seems to be a big part of your 408 00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:29,600 Speaker 1: your online presence. Now. Is it doing well for you? Yeah?

So, uh yeah, 418 00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:59,560 Speaker 1: anything we can do to help out. The last time 419 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:01,400 Speaker 1: we took locked, we talked a little bit about one 420 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 1: thirty four refrigerant machines, and then we talked about one 421 00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:07,919 Speaker 1: two three four YF the new refrigerant and well not 422 00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:10,640 Speaker 1: newer vehicles anymore. What one to three four YF started 423 00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:15,480 Speaker 1: appeering around fifteen sixteen, depending upon the vehicle, right, yeah, 424 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:20,040 Speaker 1: a little bit before. Has the market taken off like 425 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:23,879 Speaker 1: you expected? It is the demand because it seems to 426 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:26,360 Speaker 1: me we don't use the one two three four machine 427 00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:30,359 Speaker 1: nearly as much as the one thirty four is the 428 00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:33,240 Speaker 1: one two three four? Have they gotten so good that 429 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:35,840 Speaker 1: you need them to service it but you're not really 430 00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,399 Speaker 1: using it beyond that? Or am I just seeing a 431 00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:42,720 Speaker 1: different portion of the market? Well? I think, I mean, 432 00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:45,320 Speaker 1: you know, obviously, you know most of the cars on 433 00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:49,320 Speaker 1: the road are still um, you know, running one four 434 00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:53,080 Speaker 1: A but um, but that's changing, right, So I think 435 00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:57,080 Speaker 1: by if I remember right about fifty, it'll be about 436 00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 1: fifty fifty, so they'll be half of the cards that 437 00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:02,239 Speaker 1: are it will be y vehicles by that point. And 438 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:05,520 Speaker 1: the markets growing for that right, Oh, it's definitely growing. 439 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 1: It's definitely growing. And what are you guys doing, because 440 00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:11,199 Speaker 1: you're so on top of it all the time, you know, 441 00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:13,800 Speaker 1: what are your predictions and projections for next year? How 442 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:17,320 Speaker 1: are you approaching it to meet customer demand and you know, 443 00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:19,919 Speaker 1: to meet the the uptick? Do you add do you 444 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:22,760 Speaker 1: add production? Or are you okay where you're at? What's 445 00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 1: what's what's in the works at Mala. Yeah, so you know, 446 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 1: we we have some capacity there, you know, I think 447 00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:31,879 Speaker 1: you know, just the industry problem right now is just 448 00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 1: getting parts right, so you know, uh, sourcing and getting 449 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:39,680 Speaker 1: getting things like that. That's we spend a lot of time, uh, 450 00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:41,720 Speaker 1: you know, making sure that we can continue to produce 451 00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:46,680 Speaker 1: products right for our customers. And that's difficult paths. I mean, um, 452 00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:49,359 Speaker 1: you know, and uh, the whole industry is suffering right 453 00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:51,600 Speaker 1: now from this. I think you know, it's uh it's 454 00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:54,840 Speaker 1: tough right now with the supply demand imbalance. So so 455 00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:56,919 Speaker 1: you're you guys are feeling the pinch of the of 456 00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:01,520 Speaker 1: the supply chain problems as well. Sure everybody is right, 457 00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 1: I mean, that's the reality of it. So uh, you know, 458 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:08,919 Speaker 1: everybody feels it in some way. Uh so, uh, you know, 459 00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:11,760 Speaker 1: a tit or miss you know, sometimes it's part by part, 460 00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:14,960 Speaker 1: or you know, sometimes it's a larger scale issue. You know, 461 00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:17,960 Speaker 1: everything that's a lot of We had a few adventures, 462 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:20,800 Speaker 1: uh I'm sure you know. Listen, we're all gonna sit 463 00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:22,639 Speaker 1: down one day at dinner and talk about the stories. 464 00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:24,920 Speaker 1: I remember the pandemic because we've all got them. It's 465 00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:28,440 Speaker 1: it's you know, it's just it's it's crazy, what's going on. 466 00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:30,920 Speaker 1: I have to tell you, I gotta get this in here. Um. 467 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:34,919 Speaker 1: I have to tell you that I recently added a 468 00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:39,159 Speaker 1: printer to my Mala Arctic Pro machine. You know, I 469 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:41,359 Speaker 1: never realized how much you needed a printer for an 470 00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 1: air conditioning service.

But diagnosing 540 00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:17,480 Speaker 1: leaks is difficult, and you know, can you kind of 541 00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:19,600 Speaker 1: talk about the process, what are some of the steps 542 00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:21,800 Speaker 1: the shops out there should be going through and the 543 00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:23,760 Speaker 1: listeners need to be aware of when they take their car. 544 00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:27,440 Speaker 1: And for service, yeah, well you know, actually for YF 545 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:30,960 Speaker 1: service these days, if you uh, you know, our customers 546 00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:33,439 Speaker 1: just follow the screen and to do lee check. So 547 00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 1: it's actually part of the process that's built into the machine. UM, 548 00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:41,200 Speaker 1: I mean we do that to meet UM good compliance 549 00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:44,960 Speaker 1: with SAE and so on. And you know, so in 550 00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:46,840 Speaker 1: a y F service, you you know, you pull a 551 00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:49,800 Speaker 1: vacuum and then you do basically what's called the precharge 552 00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:53,920 Speaker 1: about of what you've entered in for your mouth for 553 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:57,000 Speaker 1: that vehicle gets charged into the vehicle and then UM 554 00:28:57,280 --> 00:28:59,840 Speaker 1: and then as rush you to basically take an electronics 555 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:03,600 Speaker 1: leak detector and go around the vehicle and UM and 556 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:06,360 Speaker 1: steff sniff leak, you know, basically do a sniff task 557 00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:12,320 Speaker 1: to until the leaks, right and and and ore is 558 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,520 Speaker 1: you know what sort of issues does anybody seeing issues 559 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:19,960 Speaker 1: as far as you know, because the leaks are down 560 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:23,520 Speaker 1: to such a small level as compared to one thirty four, right, 561 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,560 Speaker 1: is is there are there issues in the sense of 562 00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:29,520 Speaker 1: um uh finding the leaks because is it? Is it 563 00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 1: so scattered or can it pinpoint? Does the leak detector 564 00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:34,560 Speaker 1: I guess what I'm trying to ask nicely is does 565 00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:36,600 Speaker 1: the leak detector work better than the one thirty four 566 00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:41,440 Speaker 1: ones that never seemed to find anything? Yes, the leak 567 00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:45,480 Speaker 1: detectors that at least that we uh sell or actually 568 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 1: do both refrigerant types and uh so, and they're actually 569 00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 1: uh at least in our experience, everyone's got to retract. 570 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:56,479 Speaker 1: They're they're actually pretty accurate, I think where a lot 571 00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:58,800 Speaker 1: of the false readings come in a lot of times 572 00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:01,040 Speaker 1: are you know, when the garage doors open and you 573 00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:02,800 Speaker 1: get a breeze of wind that comes through and then 574 00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:05,720 Speaker 1: it's finally makes it more difficult to right, That's what 575 00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:08,160 Speaker 1: I was looking for. So that's what I wanted to 576 00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:10,120 Speaker 1: get up here. Um let me ask you real quick, 577 00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:12,520 Speaker 1: as our time is winding them, we've got about two minutes. 578 00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:17,680 Speaker 1: Electric vehicles and electric vehicles? Is that? Is that going 579 00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:19,040 Speaker 1: to be a whole another ball game? Do you have 580 00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:21,720 Speaker 1: any comments, any thoughts on that, any any pre info 581 00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:27,200 Speaker 1: you can share? Um? Yeah, so uh again, a little 582 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:31,200 Speaker 1: bit complicated. Everyone's doing a little bit different thing. Um so. Um, 583 00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:36,880 Speaker 1: but you know, you know by I mean, I look 584 00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:38,440 Speaker 1: at it this way, you know, and this and this 585 00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:43,440 Speaker 1: includes gas engines, but of all vehicle model years built 586 00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:48,760 Speaker 1: this year, news yf right, so that includes you know, 587 00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:51,000 Speaker 1: all the electrics and things like this, So you know 588 00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:54,240 Speaker 1: right now and in that industry. You know, there's a 589 00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:56,960 Speaker 1: lot of reuse of components. So you know, you have 590 00:30:57,040 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 1: an ice engine, you retro fit and electric you know, 591 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:01,560 Speaker 1: you know, you kind of do the best you can. 592 00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:05,040 Speaker 1: Tesla maybe is exception to that.
