Dan is a great technician and explains things very well. But the real hero in this video is that starter.
😂 very true. Prob booked in next week for a new one 😝
Thanks for leaving a comment and don't worry about the starter😁
Its a Suzuki, those starters are made of indestructabillatonium
And yes, its a swift here in NZ too
@@mattyb7736 No ut usn't, ut's a Swuft ;) (oi oi oi)
@@dennisbjones we speak proper englidge here hehe
Hey Dan thanks for the shout out! You are right, sometimes engineers work in mysterious ways 😆
Nice. Two diagnostic master mechanics absolutely worth seeing both channels🤌😎
Oh yea, you said how come a knock sensor can't let the car to start😂😂😂
I suppose the engineers in the case of that knock sensor case study didn't want to take any chances with detonation. Most other manufacturers use or claim to use knock sensor data for ignition timing modification only as a failsafe.
@@abdul-kabiralegbe5660 so they sacrificed the transmission instead 😅
Had a similar issue on a Nissan xtrail with the knock sensor a few years ago
Man, I love this channel! I wish there were more regular uploads, but I completely understand this is a side gig to an actual workshop.
Keep it up Dan
I know, right. He is my favorite auto-tech. Once he started his DDTSB system, he had to cut back on videos.
The next video is coming sooner😁
So well done Dan. As ever, good, solid back to basic Diagnostic work, working in a very methodical way. You even proved that the new relay was working before fitting. 😉
Thanks for the great comment!
Hey, Dan is back! 😄 Great to see you again, showing us that good old fashioned skills are not outdated. Keep the videos coming 👏👏👏
Exactly!
So happy to see your video Dan… its been a while…
Next coming sooner 👍
Dan refers here to fellow CZcamsr car diagnostic wizard at Pine Hollow Auto Diagnostics. Both are fantastic in my opinion to help us all out. I love that relay tester and what a great timesaver to power up the fuel pump to check it worked without having to potentially drop the tank or go down the parts cannon swap out route.
... and Eric O. (South Main Auto) and Scanner Danner are right up there also. Of course Bernie Thompson is probably at the top of the stack.
Thanks for watching!
That nigga Bernie is something else.
I recently bought a relais tester for about 15 euro, have the same problem with my car since a few days and it's a Suzuki as well.
@@gaad7938 Also let's not forget Watch Wes Work, he also shows some top-notch systematic diagnosis.
Although not taking any respect away for the overhaul video, systematically explained, i must admit i really enjoy the 'bloopers',,,another 'Quin Martin production' 🙂 with no fake airs and graces, just pure talent, Thank you Dan, you got to be the best in the whole of Europe, man, maybe that ' pet dinosaur' that you had long ago,worked wonders for the talent you display with integrity and a humble disposition, keep on rocking out these video's, and we'll promote you to the international hall of fame for the best tech in the world 😇
You're a huge inspiration and a great , anointed teacher! As automotive mechanic i enjoy every second, every minute of your videos, and I'm praying for you never stop doing this!!!
Ah thanks😁 its a comment like this that makes me want to upload another video👍👍
Hey Dan love your videos. The first thing I noticed was the no fuel pump. Most fuel injection cars when you turn on the ignition switch the pump runs for 15 seconds to pressurize the system, you sometimes can hear this, then it runs during cranking. The pump stops when the ecu detects the engine has stopped or the ignition is turned off. Can't wait for the next video.
This is typical for Japanese manufacturers. No pre-fueling.
Next video on its way👍
@@engeneer_ru5827 not the case for 90s cars tho
Hi Dan. Here in South Africa we also have it and yes, it is called a Suzuki Swift. Love you LMP(Logical Methodical Procedure) I used to be a Ford Master technician. Left 7 years ago, started my own shop from home. Now I feel bit dumber, because I do mostly mechanical repairs. Service, brakes, engine overhaul. Your video's are food for my starving brain. Your are a true Master my friend.
I also do mechanical work like brakes sometimes and i love it.
A Suzuki with a problem??!! 😱
Weirdly, I just had the wiring diagram out for fuel and ignition on a VFR 750 when your notification popped up!
Great vid, DD! 👌🏻💪🏻
🤣🤣no way!
@@Diagnosedan dodgy ignition barrel. All ok now! 👍🏻
Called a Swift in the UK as well. Great video as always
Thanks for the feedback
Nice one Dan, Yes we have the swift in the UK also.
Nice bread and butter diagnostics, it's good to see that diagnostic skill these days, getting more rare I think. Keep em coming 👍
Thanks for watching
This channel is so underrated. I've learned a lot by watching these videos.
Dan always has a calm, cool approach. Great idea if you works on cars to stay calm & not get frustrated. It can happen very easily. Great video as always
Dear Dan i am following you long time ago and i think that I whach all of your videos. I personally love the step by step detail explanation like you do and you know how to teach. I am shure that filming and editing your videos is very time consuming and seams to me that you are very busy person. But (always is a but) I will like to whach your videos at least 1 in a week not in a month or two. I wish you all the best to you and your family!
I promise that the next video comes sooner 😁👍
I have to say, I love your videos and your approach at how you diagnose cars. I was nervous about getting in to the Euro market until I started watching your videos. Please keep them coming!
Dont be nervous! Just do it and get experienced working on them. In the end its just a car.
DiagnoseDan is one of my favorite Automotive Diagnostic Technicians on CZcams. I have learned a lot from him that has benefited my own customers over the years. Thank you DiagnoseDan for another great diagnostic video.
The relay buddy switches the relay on 10 times then goes green if the relay is good. Glad that customer found you to fix there vehicle.
I recently finished my school for MBO level 4 Technical specialist of passenger cars. School is good for learning theoretically, but I almost never see problems like these in pratice. So I have almost no experience in the real world with diagnosing problems with cars. These videos are really nice to keep up and learn about the right diagnostic procedures.
I had the same thing when i came out of school! A lot of theory but no experience.
Not a cheap fix because your knowledge & diagnosis are priceless !
Hope there is no hidden issue causing that denso relay to fail 💯
Thanks for your comment!
I love me a good Diagnose Dan video 😊
Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment, its really appreciated Eric👍
You are a master, I just love watching professionals that know what they are doing.

It is also called the Suzuki Swift in the UK
I still think he wasted a lot of time as soon as you notice no pressure didn't even bother checking the fuse for the gas pump
Like I said it was power going to the pump relay fuse one of those two things
What would be the process if after a week customer returns and new relay has stopped working? Suspect fuel pump causing high resistance on circuit? Or are there other factors that can cause a relay to fail quicker?
@@ZanderKaneUK There is always the possibility of defective parts, NEW, never ever worked, or US Company BWD, broke when delivered, then the company with a pair of wings as their logo, that is your money flying away from their poor quality, and too many Chinese parts getting in the mix also.
In South Africa they're also called the Suzuki Swift.
Thanks for letting me know💪👍
Thank you Dan You Have helped more than you know. I am a retired MBZ. Master and Love what you bring to diagnostics. Thank You again
Hey Dan, just wanted to say thank you, my ute had a LDW and FCM error, the car was still under warranty, i took it in, they denied the warranty, because i had a towbar put on and they tried to say the wiring had been cut into the can lines, i didnt even know what can wires were, so i watched your videos, checked the cabling, (they didnt cut into the can wires), checked the voltage to the module, checked the Ohms on the can wires, checked the voltage average on the can wires like you said, worked out the module was dead, bought a second hand module plugged it in cleared the errors with my cheap odb2 reader thingee, fixed and working.
The garage that declined to fix under warranty told me that it would cost over 8k to fix as they would need to replace all the wiring.
Thank you so much for your videos, it saved me thousands and educated me at the same time :)
David
Hey!!! where have you been, i miss your awesome videos, c'mon please post more videos.😊😊😊👌👌👌
Next one coming sooner❗
Great video and diagnosis. Nice shoutout to Ivan. He would have taken the relay apart and cleaned the burned contact for a no parts required repair. 😂😂
Yes he probably would. Our shop gives a mobility waranty after a fix. That means if the car breaks down again.We come and pick it up all throughout Europe. I can't risk that on a 10€ part. Of course if its your own car you could try that.
Fellow diagnostician here who watches all your videos. Great job and love the simple ones. But I will say this, I think you did a slight wrong for us when you said the customer will be happy for the 10 dollar fix.
I would of worded it a bit different. Maybe, "customer will be happy for the parts only costing 10 dollars and an hr or so labor to find it the problem"
You know better than almost everyone that out time is always taken for granted. People don't realize it's not just the time we spent on the car but all the time we spent in school and seminars to be able to repair these vehicles.
Love ya Dan and God bless and stay safe brother
Great video Dan! Quick, easy, to the point, and best of all, it worked! Always a pleasure to watch.👍🏻
Dan if I didn't know any better I'd say you fixed this car on your day off! Like a boss. 👍
You are actually right, i recorded this video in my free Saturday 😊
The look on Dans face when he questioned himself whether or not there was fuel in the tank was priceless, had me laughing. 😂
I felt his fear.
Been there done that, got very embarrassed telling the boss why it took me 30 mins to diagnose an empty fuel tank.
Got the last laugh though when the customer came in, he was also very embarrassed.
We've all been there
I think if it was out of fuel then video would Not have been made!😂
🤣🤣 That would have been embarrassing
I really admire the diagnostic methods that Dan uses and at the same time explains them. I'm attracted to electrical problems more in cars, so I watched everything he did very carefully!
Thanks!
This is one of the coolest vedios on car i have seen. It is like a detective story. Thank you so much!
Great video and awesome outcome!
We have the Swift in Bulgaria as well! 🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬
Thanks for letting me know👍
Thousands of them here in New Zealand, thanks Dan for another great video, great content,goes to show that not all problems are as difficult and expensive as they first appare
Thanks for watching!
DAN, you always ROCK in what u do thanks for sharing.
You’re a legend! Can’t stop watching your videos.
I confess I would have loaded up the parts cannon with a relay once I saw the pump working off a working 12v feed. But, of course, you did it the correct way. Great video as always Dan, thanks. More please !
That's the allure of shooting the parts cannon. It works until it doesn't.
@@abdul-kabiralegbe5660 Agreed, I wouldn't try it with ECUs, turbos and gearboxes but when it's loading a £10 relay into the cannon, I'd gamble on it. At worst you have a spare relay.
Or swap a nearby identical one? If one's available, no cost to try...
Sometimes the parts in the cannon are less expensive than the diagnostic time. Gas cap vs evap smoke testing for example.
@@RyanRiopel common sense and EXPERIENCE should prevail
Great fix as always Dan! I've diagnosed many dozens of bad fuel pumps in my career, some of them out of the shop at friends and families homes without much tools with me. Some of the quick tests that I take 5 mins to do right off the bat include taking off the gas cap and listening for the pump. If no pump is heard I would go for a relay first and without any test equipment a guy can swap one of the other known good relays in the fuse box with the fuel pump relay and VIOLA. I've seen relays fail to actuate, actuate but not pass current, and stay on due to welded contacts. They can fail a number of different ways and I'm sure I haven't seen them all yet!
Thanks for the comment!
Hi sir is it possible if you can help me I've got a 93 ford ranger crank no start and I belive its a a bad fuel pump but I don't know much about cars please
@@adambradley2173 Quickest things are taking off the gas cap and listening for the pump. Just because a pump runs doesn't mean it's making proper pressure though. Then I would try adding some fuel to the intake with a can of starting fluid to see if the engine "pops off", if it does you can be pretty certain you have a fuel related issue.
Love your diagnostic method Dan.
Awesome step by step process
I was an electrical engineer all my working life and would have loved to have worked with you, you are so methodical.
In Russia, these cars are not uncommon. They are also called - swift. They have proven to be quite reliable, easy to repair, cheap spare parts.
Same here, quite a decent car. Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment
Great video, would have been cool to see you use the AES Uactivate i just got mine. I also have the relay buddy tester you used in the video as well, great tools! Love the content always look forward to it
The Uactivate looks like a pretty convient tool but i dont think they are sold over here in Europe
Another brilliantly described and broken down into easy to understand tests video. I've personally come across this exact problem on a VW pollo a few years ago. I didn't have some the wonderful test equipment you have available. However I used a test light to see if there was power going to the fuel pump, which of course there wasn't. I then ran a live inline fused power feed directly from the battery to test the pump. The car started straight up. So I took a change abd bought a new relay, and that was the problem.
Great videos and the Bloopers make my day. For a non-native English speaker you do a fantastic job I wish that my Dutch was half as good as your English. Thank you!
I have the same Swift model in the family since 2013, and it never missed a beat. That's why I was little surprised to see it as a patient in your workshop 🙂
I guess that any car can have a faulty relay after all 🙂
It is one of the best small cars on the market, that also happened to be quite affordable.
They are pretty decent cars!
Nice diagnosis even if it was the long path to the conclusion of the relay being faulty. I would have started from the fuse box, but it would have been a very short video on the fuel diagnostic part.
Usually no matter where you start, it always end up being the last thing you check 🤣🤣
Now you know the outcome that easy to say. If we had a bad fuel pump it would have been the other way around
Fuse box in many modern cars are not easy to get too and when you decide to start there it usually is at the other end and when you start at the other end the problem is around the fuse box
Always educational, your logic process is ON POINT , I really appreciate your vids
Another great video. Glad I was able to help watch the light bulb for you.
Thanks for that😂
Dan’s the man! I try to fix stuff on our own cars as much as possible but auto electrics are always a PITA. Your forensic detective approach is inspired. Thank you sir!
Love how you go the extra mile to explain the system and how it works. Most of us would just go directly to a fuse or relay and test but you went the extra steps to prove the integrity of the system and if the issue was a broken or shorted wire you would've found it. Thank you. I really enjoy your videos, you would make a great teacher in diagnostics. 👍
Thanks!
Part maybe cost
❤️❤️👍👍
Tachometer was also the right word/name. The fuel in the tank comment, was hilarious, nice honesty.
You are a genius I love your diagnosis. Had a car over 200,000 km and has the same situation and the first thing I did was switch the relay with the identical one next to it for the air. Car started up right away. Think you did a little bit too much work but I enjoyed that you did it not me. Lol
Classic. Had same problem with a Volvo S70. Dead giveaway is that it wanted to start at first - leave it alone a while and fuel pressure balances a a bit. Good job Dan, love your work!
I hope many mechanics are seeing and following your channel. They will benefit from it a lot.
A solid diagnosis process.
Thanks.
Thanks!
I dont know🤣
You pronounced it perfectly! (tachometer) Your bloopers are quite funny too. I can remember working on my Dad's old SAAB I would often swap relays to quickly isolate the problem. Would have to often lightly sand the contacts to get the relay going.
Ah thanks somehow i'm always struggling with that word
Thanks again Dan - another worthwhile video - New Zealand does have Suzuki Swifts
Brilliant Dan, you always follow a process 👏👏 many people overlook doing basic checks and start throwing parts at a vehicle which sometimes introduces new faults.
Thanks for the comment!
Without doubt. Dan avoids to be a "part changer" without a proper, thorough verified test and it is shocking that modern day mechanics rely on compression tests or diagnostic tests to make them diagnose out of the blank, making customers fork out more unnecessarily. Dan is really a depth, thorough real mechanic. He doesn't cut corners. Wow.
Thank you, Dan, for sharing a bit of your work with us! We look forward to every video you make 😍
Thats nice to hear. Thank you
The best Mechanic ever 🙏👍👍👍
Great job........another job well done by the A team.
Hi Dan
Great video!
Explained every step so anyone can understand. Thanks for doing these videos. All the best.
Thanks Robert
Hi Dan every time I see a new post it’s like an old friend visiting me, love your work
I feel the same every time you watch my videos 🤣🤣 just joking! Thanks for the positive comment its really appreciated
Mr. Dan is a very clever man.
I love this video. Being a prehistoric mechanic (started several years before any diagnostic computers came on to the market) I was forced to learn the basics. When the diagnostic computers came on to the market some of the new mechanics were relying on them to tell them what was wrong with the car. In many cases you could just diagnose the cars without a computer.
But I do love diagnostic equipment, I have some and I love to use it.
A Scantool leads us in the right direction but can't replace the person holding it😁
Super helpful ! Thanks for coaching us !
My pleasure
Another great video Dan, it's good to see your methodical approach to solving problems.
Thank you!
Simply the best channel on youtube
Thank you!
I love your video about how to perform step by step to troubleshoot crank no start issue. Recently my civic suddenly does "crank no start" in first two cranks after the car sit for a whole day. Battery/Alternator were all replaced recently. Additional ground cable was added. Same thing. There is no improvement. Two years ago. my car was stranded at the rest stop and towed to a shop and the shop said the starter died which was also replaced. I don't believe shortly in two years, now I am experiencing now crank no start issue. Last night, I cranked twice and it was no start. The third crank started the car up. I was leading to believe it's the fuel or spark issue. Now after seeing your video, I may go and swap out the fuel pump relay, which is cheap enough that I can see the result or what not immediately.
I can’t say how pleased I was to see there was another DD video to watch.. thanks Dan.
Thats awsome to hear
Hey been watching Pinehollow auto diagnostics for over a year just discovered your channel can’t believe what I was missing it too CZcams over
A year to notice that I was watching auto diagnostics before I found you channel know I am subscribe and I have hit the bell you make diagnostics seems simple thank you
Your english is very good Dan quick diag straight to the point like usual.
Thank you
Shout out to Ivan from PHD!!! Two of the GOATS in their fields watching each other’s videos is awesome.
Ivan has got a great channel!
I always enjoy your dignostic approach. This is sweet Man.thanks.
Thanks!
Amazing work again. You are my favourite channel to watch
Wow that's awsome 👍👍👍👍
Excellent logical fault finding procedures.

Excellent tutorial presentation. Thanks
Another award winning job! They should all be this easy, but then the channel would be boring.
We never know what we get😁
Great tutorial Dan.
Thank you 😁👍
best diagnose video, best quality that other ppl should've learnt from. Subed liked!
Nice work Dan, it shows the importance of checking the basics before going in all guns blazing. 👍🏼
Exactly!
Even editing this video takes more time than repairing 😅
Helps people to solve basic problems 👍
Yes it actually did take a little longer🤣
Dan, your videos are great. In Australia we call this a Swift too.
Top Man very good Doctor of Automobile experience excellent doctor. I wish you the best.
Once again. Fixed. As always love the process
Thanks!
