How much resistance did you add? It's finicky, so you may be freezing up your coils. If that happens it will start blowing warm air fairly quick and you need to turn your system off quickly.

Just added a link in the description.

@@paytonroberts3992 T50 or T45 I believe

@@EdgarMendezz A blown fuse cannot, but a stuck relay certainly can. Or a malfunctioning brake switch.

What kind of scanner are you using? It may be stored as a history code, and need a couple key cycles to clear. If it is still an active code, it could be as simple as needing spark plugs as well. Or it could be much more complicated in wiring or internals. Hard to say sadly. The shaking idle being resolved is a good indication though.

@kennethrobinson5151 This actually makes alot of sense. That being said I watched this unit settle at about a 55 degree reading and that's where it keeps it.

@@GreenCastleGarage mine was covered with a sticky oily film along with a bunch of dirt must have been causing a false reading... Took me six years to figure that out I replace the condenser the dryer the expansion valve the high pressure sensor none of that made a shit of a difference the compressor kept on cycling on and off about every 10 seconds or so... I was going to replace the sensor with one from an f250, have to buy the whole evap corr to get the one for an F-150 nobody makes just the sensor... But cleaning it off did the trick

@@GreenCastleGarage recently I had bypassed the sensor with a 1/4 Watt 2.5 thousand ohm resistor which works but the compressor never shut off and it iced up the core under certain conditions

@kennethrobinson5151 yeah, that's way too little of resistance. The resistors are finicky to get them right, but it tracks perfectly with what you found.

What sensor are you talking about?

Oh man! This is awesome news!! Finally a turnkey solution to this issue!! Congrats on moving fwd with this! 🙌🏼

@Jayroc23 thank you, happy to help

@@GreenCastleGarage you did more then help. I caught a local big garage that deals with interlocks for alcohol trying to scam me for 800$ with the help of your video I busted them red handed my alternator was fine. They said “ if you don’t report me I’ll give you your system test money back (80$)

@Jayroc23 Holy guacamole, I hate to hear that. Give me the name of the place and I'll report after you get your money back lololol. I have a real distaste for for crooks like that

@@GreenCastleGarage first choice automotive Springfield Missouri.

@@Jayroc23 Awesome, I'll forward this to the correct places

@Aman20048 So the iprog software I mentioned has built in scripts. We didn't have much success with it though. Ended up doing it manually in hex using some example files. As I mentioned though, I'm super new and was just trying to help people get over some early hurdles I struggled with.

@@GreenCastleGarage what about carprotool is good ?

@@GreenCastleGarage So how about carprotool is good for clearing crash data?

@ethanhurte8859 Unfortunately, that may be the case with California. I know they are stricter than any other state, but that still seems outrageous. I'd check with the dealer for there cost then any decent exhaust shop shouldn't charge more than $1000 to put them in.

@@tips0965 I just fished a hook tool behind it to hold the retaining plate up. Sorry, I don't have control of youtubes pop-ups

@WillTyler-l2j Sure can, email me at shane.d.spalding@gmail.com and we can work it out.

These systems are more finicky than most. If I was you I'd check the outside air filter and the recirculation blend door first for sure

Yes of course, just need to put them on the wires that plug into the temp sensor

@meaganboyce5401 If it has the 4t65e yes, if not it's still probably very similar

@mpatterson212 yeah, I apologize if I went too quickly. I'm definitely still trying to improve the quality of my repair videos. If you have any specific I'll be happy to try and explain

@@GreenCastleGarage oh no, I’m sure the repairs are fine! It’s just the videos I’ve watched will be about fixing the problem and then most the video is explaining where or how to get to it etc… which is awesome. But then when it comes to the taking out the bad parts and showing how to fix them it feels rushed. It’d just help like on this one, if u showed us an example of taking one out and then replacing it. I’m sorry, I’m not trying to bust ur balls, I’m just trying to learn how to do some of this stuff too!!

@mpatterson212 No I totally understand, that's why I asked. When you do this for as long as I have you definitely take things for granted and miss some steps. I'm just trying to get an idea how I can do better on future videos. Afterall the whole point is helping folks like yourself, it's remarkable how simple most things on a vehichle are.

@@GreenCastleGarage that’s why I’m glad I found this page though. You were real quick with things and definitely knew what you were doing so hopefully if something goes wrong with my f150, you will be the guy that can help!!

@@mpatterson212 I'll definitely do my best to help. Thanks for the subscribe

Bahahahahhaha, that is true

@tomclark7614 yeah I apologize, I'm still figuring out what works best. Gave up putting music in some time ago

@weshawks4162 it's linked in the video

@@CharlesSumrall-s3i you know, I'm not actually sure. I'd just unplug it and check with a voltmeter.

@brianl2875 you could just splice the setup inline with the existing harness. We just wanted a setup that could be removed without effecting the factory harness

@jacobchamblin6317 I can build one and send it for $150 or if you'd rather I install it and tune it in you can come to south ft worth and it'll be $200. Email is shane.d.spalding@gmail.com.

@@GreenCastleGarage I’ll send you an email

Lmao, not bs at all

@BlueSky-ec9pp well I should preface by saying this particular one has been a great car all things considered. Uses a good deal of oil, but most all of them do. Otherwise it's been minimal maintenance. However, I think they're pretty poorly built cars in general. I've had two others come her needing timing chains pre 80k. The camshaft sprockets have no keyway and are friction fit. The lower coolant hose is tucked up right under the feont bumper. So they get taken out by potholes fairly regularly. At least with teenage drivers I've experienced. Now all that being said they're cheap and easy to work on, so it may all balance out.

@@GreenCastleGarage Thanks a lot for your help , The potholes is more dangerous when it is rainy . thanks again

@@mrstl3000 Did we, no. But the truck was bought at auction.....

@GreenCastleGarage ok I did one of my trucks like that

@mrstl3000 lololol, whatever works. Pulling those dashes is a pain

It's been some time since I've looked at this circuit, but I'm pretty sure it's in series adding resistance to the output of the sensor

@gtrepani OK I went and pulled the one out of the truck here and I apologize. You had it correct with the parallel. My brain wasn't good enough to remember lol. Sorry if I added confusion

@@GreenCastleGarage Thanks for following up on this! Based on what I could see in your video as well as what I saw in another video showing the resistance range as the temperature changes, I figured that your circuit had to be in parallel and not in series. This is a great hack! Now I need to play with it more to pick a safe value that ensures my evaporator doesn't freeze up. Thanks again!

Honestly, I'm not sure buddy. This video is the only one of these I've touched, so I'm not super familar

Cool deal i just tackled that one not bad pretty much the same process. Thanks for the vid

@damiengotti7803 ohh awesome, glad you got it done.

@daleg8944 pb blaster and good hammer work. If you have a slide hammer you can try and get that attached as well. Sometimes they are a real pain for sure. If all else fails, apply heat.

Lololol, it's relative I suppose. By top of the blower motor I meant above it on the hvac box. You're just looking for the evap temp sensor.

Does it go warm immediately? Or after running for a bit?

Yeah, you can shoot me an email and we can try and work something out

I showed the tensioner release, if you need the belt off you just fish it out at that point. It's kinda a bugger though, wraps all the way around a pulley if memory serves.

That's the other blend door

It should fit, but my searches have been wrong before so I'd try and verify.

Lllololol

You're looking for a front end alignment video?

@@GreenCastleGarage yessir I just bought an 05 Corolla and I've been playing tug of war with the steering wheel haven't been able to find a video that explains how to fix it I know how to figure out how off the alignment is with a tape measure just don't know what to do next

Really? All my local autoparts stores still turn them. Machine shops will also do it if they have time lol

The link pinned in the comments or in the video. Should pop up somewhere up top

​@@GreenCastleGarage Incredible that I found this short and you replied to a comment 2 hours ago... Sorry but the link isn't working and I don't see it pinned in the comments. Please share again, thanks man!!

I don't have any video doing fuel injectors, but once you have the intake removed you just yank the thermostat housing and the coolant pipe that runs under the intake. Obviously make sure you bleed the fuel pressure then yank the fuel rails. Also believe the nuts on the fuel rail are torque to yield. So one time use
