Number 1,995 out of only 2,362 made! Who can tell me what it is? Sorry for the raw, unedited footage. I just had to get something out there once I got it running. It's been sitting for a LONG time. This is the first drive after "rebuilding" the carbs and reworking the fuel delivery system.

Fixing Nissan blower motor "resistor", amp, controller, whatever

Working on a 2004 Quest, here I take apart the blower motor amplifier that has many names. It receives a PWM signal from the main HVAC controller, and has a large switching transistor for control. Find out what goes wrong. I've also done this on an Infiniti QX4, so it's probably a fairly common failure.
What a bad engine oil leak looks like with UV dye

I dug up an old video... Here we have a hemorrhaging 1998 Toyota Camry 2.2L. The car was driven to the shop with about 2 cups of oil left in the pan! It turned out to be the famous oil pump seal, which is a pump body perimeter gasket that starts out as rubber, but morphs into brittle plastic. Six years later, it still runs fine!

Mine works sometimes, but not other times. It's in an 06 Chevrolet Aveo LS. The warning lights always work, but the clock display only works sometimes. It doesn't lose track of time either. Any idea what could cause that?
@@green3488 since it keeps time, it's likely a display issue like this. Is it a VFD display like this? Super common to have cracked solder on the power resistors, across many makes and models. I found the same issue on our KitchenAid oven!
@@CheapskateGarage I determined it's most likely two big 160 ohm resistors that are measuring as 140 ohms. Ordered better ones.
@@CheapskateGarage Yes, it's a lot like yours except also has the warning lights for stuff like seat belts, air bags, check engine, etc.
@@CheapskateGarage Other people had issues with diodes.
auto parts stores sell the replacement rubber plugs that is missing from pedal. Pretty cheap too.
Just when I thought this was a clickbait title😂 really was a 1¢ fix
Hey im having the same issue shop told me needed a new trans. So for backyard mechanic is it something i can do. And did it fix the problem.
As shown in the video (make sure to look at Part 1 too) it can be done with the transmission still in the vehicle. If you can safely get it jacked up, you can do it at home. We put tens of thousands of miles on the van before we sold it, and the transmission worked flawlessly.
Thanks for this, I have been driving around in a 2006 Pathfinder without cruise control for 2 years, garage did not have a clue. It is an EU model so has a stick shift so the do dad is on the clutch pedal. Replaced it, now I have cruise control again. Made my day.
@@brian29190 good to hear! It's too bad the garage couldn't troubleshoot it.
That's great man thank you !!!!
You're welcome!
OK I just checked my truck and that part is missing so I'm sure that is going to be my fix. Thanks again. It's kind of unbelievable how you actually found that probably saved me $1000.
Glad to hear it helped! That's the reason I make videos, so thanks for sharing.
I'm gonna like I already subscribed, but even if that's not what's wrong with mine that was a great video and I liked the humor part.
Thank you! This worked for my G35.
You're welcome, that's good to hear! I didn't know they'd be similar.
Thanks for posting this! You’re a genius! This is just what I needed to fix my 2004 Frontier. I had one tweak. I couldn’t get my fingers in there to use the penny and JB Weld to replace the pad. I ended us using a flat circular magnet about the size of a penny and little ticker. It fits perfectly over the whole and doesn’t move a bit since it’s magnetized. Tat means my repair was free since it a set of these magnets at home already. Your post to find the problem set me off in the right direction! 😅
Nice!
dude for some reason mine does the same thing but my brights also dont work it like works once ever 3 times i turn on the car im about to go try this and see if it works i have a s40 2.5t 2004
Thank you so much for sharing your easy fix. I did exactly what you said and did and hey presto they are working. My frustration has been restored
You're welcome! I'm glad it helped.
I replaced all my interior lights to the very same deep blue that u have there but its so hard to get the clock to be the same blue now 😂 im even looking for aftermarket replacement ones

2010 Dodge journey have p0732 p0735 p0792 replaced all the 3 sensors also check voltages everything good still having same issue did u only replace the damage parts or u order the rebuilt kit for only the compounder assembly
I only replaced the drum and the piston with the damaged seal. Everything else was ok. We just sold the van after putting more than 30k more trouble-free miles on the transmission.
Thanks great video
How long did it take u just to remove compounder and valve body
@@charrito020Hard to say since it's been a few years, but probably about 90 minutes. Having a lift saves some time for sure.

I have the same problem with my 2011 Routan

I should try perhaps, but my blower its doesn't work at all fuses and relay works fine and blower test directly working fine too

Yes indeed. What better place for a long, long test drive than traversing central OR?
Hello friend, I have a very similar problem, and I want to quote the spare parts. What is the name or part number 203?
Hello, same tehnique for the celica t23 clock ?
Did you fix it? I have a similar issue.
How did you get the spring compressed to remove the snap ring that holds the low clutch piston in place?
Do you have the winnign video paul?
Any idea if it’s the same for a 2015 y62 patrol?
Same thing happen to my 2004 g35
I have pieces of metal in the filter. It drives only in first gear and in reverse gear it rides and slips a little. Code p075a,p0734,p0736,p0792. what to do?
Sorry I didn't see this sooner. With metal in the filter, you're not likely to have a simple fix like this leaky seal. There are probably some hard parts worn out inside. It depends on whether or not the shavings were ferrous.
Looks nice
Thanks for the video. Found a little piece of plastic on the floor after the cruise quit working on a 2004 frontier. Same exact problem

Hey I just wanted to ask did this seem to fix the problem my van 2011 caravan has been to the shop four times now and it keeps happening ill show him this video
I have problem with light of clock , in the morning i can see time but in evening i can not see . need light of mobile to see . what soltion ??
It sounds like the same problem here, though perhaps only one of the resistors is disconnected. Have you checked the resistors shown in the video for solder cracking?
@@CheapskateGarage No , but i will do that . thank you
Looking to start my replacement soon, just ordered the compounder. Any tips to remove that huge 2" nut without a heavy duty air tool? How difficult was that nut? The most I have which can be used is a long wrench/breaker bar or a 7.5Amp impact wrench tool with about 240ft-lb of torque
Question, did you have to reprogram your transmission after you completed all the work to the compound gear assembly.?
I didn't. I've had to do rather extensive adaptation procedures after repairing volvos, but this Chrysler trans just went straight back to normal operation.
It's not necessary, but it will improve shift quality faster. The PCM will eventually learn the changes and adapt with out it, but you're talking about a week instead of a few hours.
@FixItCheap I have a 2011 chrysler town and country I having a really weird issue nobody can figure it out I be driving it then all of a sudden it gets stuck in one gear nothing I do helps it get out of that gear then I have to pull over shut it off let it sit for a few seconds then turn it back on and it drives beautifully no hard shifting shifts into every gear then after driving a couple miles it does it again gets stuck into a gear then have to shut it off again and works fine when I go from park to drive I do hear a real bad clunk from the side pan sometimes it doesn't happen all the time this van is very Bazaar just got it 3 weeks after it was driving fire for couple weeks then this last week it started doing it it has the same codes p0734 p0735 p0733 thank you
I'm working on my son's 2012 Town and Country, actually have transmission out, thought or hoped it was the solenoid block but it wasn't, I have watched a little of Gary Ferraro's stuff then saw this and thought well maybe I'll tear into it (was leaning towards buying a remanufactured transmission), so after watching this, I watched his 62te teardown and thought, that's a lot of retaining rings to keep track of and one thing after the other stacked in there so went back to leaning towards buying the rebuild, plus it's getting colder and I want to get this out of my garage. Fluid in this one I'm working on isn't too bad, lot of sludge on magnet, tiny flakes but no big stuff, if it sits overnite or for an hour or two it will shift but within 5 min it stops, whines like crazy. A friend who did transmissions but is retired and sold all his tools said it sounded like it was internal probably a low clutch issue, compounder etc., that's kind of what led me to your video, watching yours makes it look a little simpler than watching the whole teardown by Gary. So did what you show fix the problem ? Separate question, what car lift do you have there, how wide is it and what is your ceiling height ? I'm getting to the age that if I'm going keep doing this I want/need a lift .
If it whines a lot, you may want to research pump issues--I've heard that's common. The fix shown here definitely worked for me. We've put about 25k flawless miles on it since then. The car lift I bought used and it was ancient. Nearly touched the 12 foot peak. I've since moved and have a higher ceiling, poured my own slab and bought a new Ideal certified 10k bi-symmetric lift.

@@mustanggta5444 so I just replaced the transmission in my son's 2012 Town and Country, been a learning experience in more way's than one. His van was showing P0733, P0846 and P083B, I researched those codes extensively and just looked up the codes you listed, also talked to a friend who was a transmission specialist but has retired and sold all his tools and he gave me some suggestions, I was thinking/hoping it was solenoid pack but he said it sounded more internal. Based on your codes and symptoms this is what i would recommend you do first, drop the trans oil pan and check for any large metal pieces, don't worry about metallic flakes that's normal, if no large pieces of anything that's positive and don't worry about black sludge unless there is an awful lot of it (if a lot then your clutches are pretty worn), check fluid, is there any red color to it at all or is it brown, if it's red or even dark red it's probably okay. Clean the magnet and all sludge out of pan, buy one of those Dorman transmission drains and install it on side of pan close to bottom edge (deep side of pan), don't put it on bottom. The washers that come with it don't work so well so go to Ace and buy a bronze or brass washer that fits the bigger part and a nylon washer that fits the smaller drain plug. Put one of the big nylon washers on inside and the other big nylon washer and bronze washer on outside and crank those down pretty snug, throw away the rubber o-ring on drain plug and the put couple wraps of thread tape on and then smaller nylon washer and snug that up, it will leak if you don't do all that. Install a new filter and instead of RTV i recommend getting a gasket, better way to go especially if you have to take it back off. put it back together, will take about 5 to 5.5 qts of ATF+4, multiple videos about checking fluid, I have done the oil dipstick method but also bought one of the special dipsticks, it was cheap. Take it for a ride, if it runs okay you are in luck and that's the easiest route. If it still acts up you can check the solenoids, plenty of diagrams and data sheets online for those and it's reasonably to get to, i just went to a junk yard and cut off the connecter with wires as long as I could get, labeled the wires and plugged that in and checked the solenoids with that. Based on you codes and symptoms I'm guessing it's not any solenoids but most likely the low clutch drum which is fairly common and in fact Chrysler has updated that part, that's the most likely. It could also be a problem with the pump or torque converter but doesn't seem likely based on your symptoms. If you have to pull the transmission, I would go with a completely rebuilt one or have somebody rebuild it, my experience with Ebay is that peoples ideas of "used good" or "refurbished" are different than my definition, also a lot of the tranny's listed even though the say they run and may even guarantee them, they have high mileage. That's kind of lengthy but hope it helps.
Привет, у меня пришли все те же ошибки, сегодня разобрал барабан лоу и увидел все тоже самое что у тебя, спасибо твоему видео из-за него я туда и полез)
@@TheEscolizardкак решил проблему?
Do you have to change compounder? Do you have to pull clutch please lmk thank you
So was that seal part of the compounder
Thank you for video
Did you remove trs sensor
But how do you know if you replaced everything? Did you do solenoids valve body and all?
The pink eraser on the end of a pencil works great for cleaning the copper contacts as well.
I have the same issue I have questions How to find the diagram like you have there Thank you
I believe I did a Google search for ATSG 62TE pdf. If you can't find it let me know, and I can do some more digging.
