P0205 - VZ Commodore 3.6L Injector Control Circuit Malfunction

- In this video we diagnose a P0205 fault and confirm a faulty PCM. We use our Picoscope for injector control confirmation and our Cardaq 3 to program the new PCM.
Both the picoscope and cardaq 3 are available in Australia from Mount Auto Equipment www.autoequipment.com.au/

Great job Rob!
It's so important to have a good knowledge of how a system works and have a good known on hand.
Keep the videos coming!😉
Thanks Mark! Appreciate it 💪💪
Dear sir.
Steve from the uk.
An absolutely superb video sir.
Very clear,concise,and very clearly spoken.
Keep up the most exellent work.
Av just subbed.
Thanku loads steve
Thank you Stephen. Much appreciated 💪
I know where I’m coming to now if I can’t fix my VZ’s. I love your proper processes rather than firing the parts canon like so many do.
great vid, but you should go through the whole reprogramming process and what's required. that's exactly the kind of info that is hard to come by and tricky to learn without good guidance.
Thanks Alex, I was intending to do that but time got ahead of me. If you're subscribed to the channel, I'll make sure I show the whole process start to finish on the next chance I get.
Shout out to my dude for making 2k subscribers. Keep at it bro
Thank you DJ my man!
Great job Bro, loved the programming part, it's my favorite task cuz it's always full of challenges😉
Thanks for sharing Bro, Stay Safe👍
Thanks Salman brother! How much programming do you usually get a chance to do?
@@romanosautomotive Thanks for asking Brother👍
In my part of the world, V8 & V6 are very rare (sadly), but I get to do KEI car's a lot (which are just cart's on steroids), mostly Daihatsu's & Hondu's (like Eric O says), especially the TCM coding goes bad on them quite often, usually I'm flashing 4 TCM's a month😉
Stay Safe Bro👍
Wow.......
Again awesome 👍 and very informative video
Thanks again Awudu!!
Nice work!
Thanks George! Appreciate you taking the time to check it out 💪
Could you do a tool box and tools tour please. Love your vids, keep it up 👍
Thank you MrHamzah, I definitely will one day
Great channel brotha subbed 💪
Thank you my man. I'm already watching yours too! 💪
QUICK and SOLID troubleshooting Rome:)
Did you get a chance to look inside old PCM, if a MOSFET replacement might have fixed it?
Thanks Denis! I didn't yet but I've saved it so I'll certainly open it up when I get a chance. I'll post it up in the telegram group as I'm due for a massive catch up with you guys!
@@romanosautomotive looking forward to seeing you there Rome but don't even try to catch up on postings...lol...there will be thousands!
Good tools with good diagnotician can do wonders..
Thank you Prashan and thanks for watching!
thank for video
Thanks Stephane!
I wish I had seen this 5 years ago when I was on the tools, was a pretty common issue back when these weren't that old, what's the ruff cost Todo this almost be worth going stand alone ecu, awesome test
Thanks JDM. The new computer from Holden is pretty expensive but the programming isn't that much. If you have a J2534 device, the programming is easy and relatively cheap.
@@romanosautomotivesou do Brasil e preciso linkar uma bcm com a ECU. Tenho um dispositivo j2534. Qual aplicativo você recomenda por favor?
Do you know where I can get the ECM prongs replaced?
Nice video. One question, doesn't the autel let you link ecm, bcm and pim? I noticed you had to change scantools.
Thanks Rob! I linked the BCM with the Autel because it gave me the BCM 6 digit code but it wouldn't give me the 4 digit immobiliser code. Then I tried the Snapon to see if it would give me the code and it didn't. I ended up getting the code from the dealer and linked the PIM on the Snapon because I already had it connected.
Great video Rob , I noticed the verus pro on the docking station , is your battery nearly retired to?
Thanks Paul. No my battery is still good but I leave it on the dock all of the time unless I need to sit in the car. I've got the video output connected to a monitor on top of the diag cart too. Although the Verus is probably due for an upgrade soon!
Ahh……the never ending update , will you stay with snap on….D10?
I thought the software updates were a bit pricey with snap on until i bought an Ultra ☹️
Not sure. I was considering the Zeus but haven't decided if I'll branch off or not. Too many decisions for a tool addict to make 🤣 How is the Ultra treating you? Would you recommend it?
plsss mate do u have the electric diagram for this car 2006 but V8 5.7?
Hi rob. I’ve got a VZ with 335k on the clock. I’ve repaired the ECU/PCM (it was misfiring). My ECU/PCM repairer said I had under-load for all injectors and a hard fault for injector 5 which he has fixed. I’ve never replaced the injectors (in 15 yrs of ownership) and they seem to be fine. I note you mentioned you replaced the injectors also. If I don’t replace the injectors, is there a risk that it could damage my repaired ECU/PCM? I’m just trying to work out the merits of replacing injectors also.
How long do injectors normally last?
Please note I’ve also had a check powertrain dash warning for a few years and could never figure out the cause, car was running okay during this time.
Hi Shazib, the biggest killer of drivers in modules is the load that it's supplying drawing too much current. Not to say that it has caused the failure of your PCM but hard to say unless the repairer has tested the current draw of the injectors. It's more preventative maintenance considering they are a relatively small cost compared to the cost of a PCM. In regards to how long injectors last, that's not something I can really say. It's a bit of a how long is a piece of string question. Hopefully that helps.
@@romanosautomotive Awesome that’s so much for your help and very useful videos, greatly appreciated!!
👍
Why no new videos..?
Hi Prashan, there's been a lot going on for me here so the second half of this year has been crazy. January onwards videos will start coming out again so hopefully I'll chat to you soon!
Hi rob where did you get your piercing probes from
Hi Maria, if you're in the US, I got them from aeswave. If you're in Australia like me, you can still buy them but they are a little bit more expensive due to the shipping. They are the best piercing probes I've ever used, just in case that helps you decide if they are worth it.
@@romanosautomotive thanks rob keep up the great videos from New Zealand
Awesome video bro but kick the customer up the ass for not cleaning their engine bay 😂😂
Haha thanks Hayden. Funny thing is that when talking with a customer when their bonnet is up, naturally they start picking the leaves out of the engine bay and dropping it on the floor :/
@@romanosautomotive hahaha have to look like they’re doing something
Mate your gonna send other Mechanics broke if you keep advertising this stuff. I mean fixing right the first time??? How's anyone supposed to make any money.🤣🤣
I can't help it Kirk. Maybe I should start some fixing it right the second time or a comeback playlist 🤣🤣🤣
@@romanosautomotive somehow I don't think you'd have enough footage for a 1 minute clip. 👍👍
