    Here is an entertaining scenario: what if the vent solenoid is partially shorted -- still works, but consumes, say, 1.5A instead of 0.5A. And the driver in the FPCM is over-current protected at 1A, turning off the load quickly and trying again shortly after. This would get the solenoid not working, and the 4A light bulb dimly lit, even though nothing is wrong with the FPCM driver in this scenario. Not saying that happened in your case, but something to be aware of as more and more circuits in modern cars receive over-current protection.

    Great video Mario. Only other thing I would have added is to verify the vent valve resistance is correct in case it is pulling too much current and caused the damage to the FPDM. Corrosion is the most common cause but still worth checking the load amount.
    I’m tired of these parts being unobtainable as well. Imports older than 1995 are getting hard to find parts for and domestics vehicles newer than 2010 are hard to get parts for.
    We are waiting for TCMs, Ecoboost VCT gears, blower motors, wiper motors, tundra fuel pumps and the list goes on.

    Sadly most flat rate techs won't bother to properly diagnose this correctly the first time, instead they'll sell the vent solenoid, flag the the diag and install time and then when that doesn't fix the problem they request additional electrical diag time. The worst part is that most of the techs who do this are praised for flagging so many hours and making the shop lost of money by upper management

  • @Stormin06096

    Unfortunately a large amount of techs would have replaced the vent valve because "they are always bad", and sent the vehicle on it's way. Load replacement is a great way to actively test the circuit. Too many techs only use voltage and never consider current flow. I would guess if a tech had used a voltmeter instead of a lamp they might have seen power and ground and left it at that.

    Can I just clear up some confusion in my mind, not yours 😂 you said the FPCU had a permanent 12v and was earth switched by control unit, then you used your 4amp load between the white wire which went from the control module to vent valve and a chassis earth, I take it you used the earth from chassis to load the earth to vent valve but how did you know that the chassis earth was good?

  • @kenfromsilverdale5675
    @kenfromsilverdale5675 Před 7 měsíci

    I would've checked the resistance of the vent valve to be sure that's not what damaged the module to start with as applying direct power and ground to the valve to test it is not fully testing it, it's only testing the mechanical operation of the valve.

    Good job, Mario . I've had some of these before . I usually check power and ground to module (at module connector ) . I noticed you skip checking the power(12v) to the module . I'm afraid to skip that step. But from I gather in this video , is that If you have communication to module , no other codes , and command . Then there is to need to test 12v feed to module. I would only test ground supply to module . Correct ?

    • @SuperMarioDiagnostics
      @SuperMarioDiagnostics  Před 7 měsíci +3

      Correct. Especially since the fuel pump is driven from the driver module, which is at least 6 amps in load. Technically i didn’t have to check the ground to the driver module either. But figured it was an easy enough step to take so i did it anyway

      When testing the component that the computer is commanding it doesn't matter because it's unplugged and while testing the the component measure how many amps it draws so when you test the harness side that goes to the computer you will know how many amps the component uses to operate you don't want to put to many amps in a low amp circuit you will fry the moduel know how many amps the circuit uses to control the component then select the right test light 👍
