EVAP Purge Solenoid Test
I was tired of smelling fuel vapors in the cabin of my 2011 Ford Explorer.
I also had code P0456 which indicated a small EVAP leak.
This is what I found.

Took some time to try to determine why I had no compression with my Poulan Pro Leaf Blower. You’d be surprised by what I found.
Troubleshooting AC Pressure Transducer
zhlédnutí 125Před měsícem
In this video I’m trying to show how to use live data pids to troubleshoot an AC Pressure Transducer in a 2008 Ford Taurus and 2009 Ford Escape. Xtool A30D was used during the screen shots. By using this tool, I was able to get 2 pressure transducers from Oreilly's under warranty.
Junkyard Day Again

nice work
Another great video 😅.
Hey, great video. Your Limo driver here. Do you do tutorials on how to reprogram garage doors? Went to CZcams, Google, every where and nothing
Hey “J”! You can text me if u like. What make is the garage door? And ru trying to program fobs, remote in car, wall mount etc….
Great video. I’m a mobile mechanic in my city this was nice to see it broken down. My favorite part was “i saw some other videos where guys took the radiator hose off… we’re not going to do that” *fast forward* “all right we ended up needing to take the radiator hose off” 😂😂❤ respect i do the same, it was nice to see an honest thought process because it’s really like that when working on these cars.
Kudos to you brotha! Its tough out there. I'm glad it helped. There are so many of us looking for information and every little bit helps. Keep those knuckles safe!
Did you have to bleed your coolant afterward?
Great question. Nope, and I havent heard any gurgling coming from my heater core. My guess is that I didn’t lose enough to require it. Fingers crossed.
Thanks for the video man, saved me a ton of frustration.
That’s always my goal! Save the knuckles and our mental stability.
08-09 same setup anyway
Good to know. Always looking for accurate info.
was the signal generated by your oscilloscope ac or dc? if ac mode was selected from the probe, we expect it to catch ac voltage not dc voltage. if ac was selected and yet it still catches dc voltage signal then it means there is a flaw in that device.
Good eye! It appears both my oscilloscope and signal generator output an AC waveform. The oscilloscope 5 V pp @ 1khz. My signal generator depending on the setting 0-10v pp and variable frequency. I know from the manufacturers literature that the DC portion of the probe could measure up to 24vdc, I can’t speak to what the max value is when set to measure frequency. In any event, I was measuring an AC waveform on my oscilloscope with the frequency setting on the V200 pro.
Great job ! Good to see someone else struggle , not always as easy as people make it look . Thanks for sharing
Who makes the pancake impact gun you used
Astro pneumatics
Gotta love rust an exhaust work . Nice job
Is it actually a single channel ocilliscope??
Some might call it that, but I wouldn’t. It can measure DC voltage and frequency, but will only measure the positive a;ternation of a waveform.
Very helpful
Helo sir ya tool chaya
Please clarify if the tool graphs AC current (speed sensors etc) or pwm DC current or both?
Good question. From what i can tell, it captures the positive portion of the waveform. It graphs DC voltage, and the positive side of an AC waveform. It does not graph current/amperage. You should be able to measure the speed sensor output in frequency and voltage, but not duty cycle %
Very helpful, thank you
Question. Like the power probes. Does this tester let you know if there is resistance in the wire by not lighting up the little red and green lights
Hey Ken, to my knowledge and with the testing I've performed, no.
Ken check out my latest video. It attempts to answer your question about visual cues
👍👍
Sounds like a commercial. I want to know what it won't do.
Thanks for the comment David. It won’t measure high voltage, and it isn’t an amp meter. Is there something specific you have in mind?
could you use a chisel on thumper to spread the joint.
Absolutely! I tried that during the fast motion video instead of using a hammer. I found that if i had removed both bushing bolts and separated the control arm from the car, then removing the ball joint from the pinch bolt would have been easier. Thats why i shoot these videos, so i make the mistakes and you don't
They're more likie $200 way too expensive
$99 bucks on Amazon
Wow, look at all the jeep Cherokees.
If you want to know which vehicles you shouldn’t buy, just visit the graveyard😀
One of the worst places for filming is under a car and you nailed it with good lighting and view angles.
That is a nice pump looks medical grade quality. Which auto parts store am I able to purchase one?
Any pump that provides positive pressure will do. Hand held vacuum gauges work as well
Must be fun after a rain storm
Yup…I should have filmed the pond I had to walk around
Another cool video 📸.
Be careful not to destroy that pretty watch 😅.
Very good tutorial. Just got my scanner and have never really used one before. Worked on cars all my life so i kinda know my way around. Looking forward to this tool helping me out!
Let me know if you have any questions. I’m not a professional, but have worked on cars all my life as well. These scanners make it so much easier to diagnose.
Boy you made that look easy.😊
Nope..Thumper did.
Very good review. I will have to buy.
Can I use it on a 28v sistem
Are you referring to a diesel vehicle? 24vdc system?
@@kurtT342 yes. is it worth buying???
The manual says it works with 24 volt systems. Definitely worth buying. I have many digital voltmeters, and this is a great addition to those. It’s great when trying to test bulbs, injectors and anything else utilizing your car/truck battery as the source.@@assicsnike3470
@@kurtT342 how it shows the oscillogram of the crankshaft sensor ??
It would depend on your vehicle. What’s the year and model? The website states it can capture a fuel injector waveform. My guess is that the tool can handle the voltage either 5vdc or 12vdc depending on the signal, it’s the duty cycle I’m unsure of. Fuel injector pulse width is much slower than the crankshaft. I’m thinking it will capture the signal, but I don’t know if the resolution will be good enough to diagnose. Let me know how I can help.@@assicsnike3470
Amazing, this just happen to mine a couple of weeks ago. 2019 ram Thanks for the video. need to find a video for taking the bolt out. Dealership wants $400.
I’m kicking myself for not shooting that part. I will when I do the second one. My suggestion is heat the bolt up so you can either snap the head off or the bolt comes out. If not, once the head comes off, cut the threaded side off as close to the flange as you can. Then use a center punch to create a small dimple in the center of the cut bolt. Start with a small bit, and work your way up to a size that doesn’t damage the thread flange, but reduces the wall size of the bolt. Then use a chisel to collapse the wall of the bolt inward. After you get the bolt out, then just retap the threads.
@@kurtT342 thanks
Great review and examples . i'm now a subscriber.
Are you in the vehicle doing these tests.
Yes. I connect the device via a cable to the diagnostic connector. This scanner does not use a wireless dongle.
Hola sr. Es un excelente video me gusta la forma didáctica como explica las funciones del dispositivo, me gustaria saber a donde puedo conseguir esos cables flexibles para adaptarlos al v200 pro, gracias por si excelente información
thanks for the feedback. here is the description. got it on Amazon. luv it so far.

Hi, it seem that your ip608 have activation test, is it send by xtool or have you by yourself ?
Yes, it does enable the ability to perform actuation/functional testing. I will capture some additional videos to showcase this function. I purchased the scanner from XTOOL via Amazon.
Great job,You are great reviewing tools,keep doing it,i guess you have a great future on youtube talking about any topic.thanks
Thanks for the feedback! Just trying to help out my fellow DIYers
I would like you to show me how you solder it on.
Looks good to me 😊.
Thanks for the review of this ckt probe. This is exactly what I have been looking to replace my light bulb on a screwdriver. Please update this video with an affiliate link so I can purchase one.
Glad it was helpful. I was able to purchase it on Amazon. Just search for VDIAGTOOL V200 pro. Sorry, I can't provide links yet. New to UTUBE.
