I have been a retired tech for over 8 years. I have over 35 years of experience .I do believe I have learned more at watching your videos about can networks that all the training that I have over the years. Thanks for your knowledge charing
That's awesome thanks you!
How satisfying to see that connector pin sticking out!
I was a Chrysler tech in the 90's when they had the CCD bus system before CAN bus came out. I remember when more and more systems went to CAN bus communications. Chrysler had the best diagnostic scan tools beginning with the DRB2 then the DRB3
Great fix. Had a 2018 Wrangler with a similar issue the other day. When I say the other day, I mean techs had been trying to find it for months as it was an intermittent stall no com. The real problem was the owner had all kinds of stupid aftermarket stuff wired inside with the disassembly for install causing damage to connector pins.
Amazing how a dc circuit assumes various voltages thru other paths when a critical ground is removed
Great diagnostic, Jake! Effective process of elimination and a no parts required solution. Actually, 2 fuses required, but not for the original problem. Very interesting video.
Excellent find as usual. Great video 👊🏻👍🏻 I had seen damage to wires under the seat. Because people thru their empty water bottles under seat and when another driver moved seat it cracked connector and plastic seat extension bar . That bar breaking was the only reason I found it .
Another perfect diagnosis!
Just impressive ! Thanks for making us learn more and gain more experience that easy ❤️
Awesome work, jake! Thank you for taking the time to make these!
Awesome video Jake you the man!
Very meticulous and detailed.
I need to get that scope for my Phoenix Plus.
Im an engine builder but when i need a good dose of can bus diagnostics i come to your channel. Great video!
Great find! Thanks for bringing us along!
I like your style Jake. Great video.
Great work
FYI, the VSIM module is Vehicle System Interface Module not used on 1500s. Optional on 2500/3500 pickups and standard on chassis cabs.
Great breakdown of the process that you use.thanks Jake
Thanks for bringing us along Jake. It's fun watching you ultimate techs solve the mystery. It would take me weeks and I still probably wouldn't find it.
Great job Jake
Thank you for this video. Since I retired in 2016 I've learned so much about CAN, LIN, LAN and others from You Tube videos like yours.
Thanks for sharing your experience and being so thorough
great diag Jake.
Excellent
Great video.A satisfying find👍.
Thanks a lot and respect
Great video!
Brilliant Jake, another great diag. Thanks for sharing.
Awesome video as always Jake!!
Fantastic job my man! Subscribed!!!
You always have interesting diags
All the bells and whistles are nice ...until they start ringing and blowing 🤪
great! performance
Nice vid the air suspension on these trks is like the old lincolns they problematic leaks in system
Nice one!
Grasias
Nice. 👌
Great video and diagnosis. It sure was good to see that wire unpinned. I hate intermittent issues that fix themselves when you just touch something.
Great video! Thank you! I am about to dig into a similar problem in my 2015 Ram 3500. My Centre stack switch bank has not worked since I got the truck, and I am now having problems with my radio and blower motor. I appreciate a quick tour of the star connectors before I dive in. I am MUCH more equipped to navigate what exactly I am looking for now. Awesome!
Nice to see your back. Hope your trip went well with Megan. Thanks for sharing Jake. This was a good one . Artie 👍
It was an experience for sure!
Great video, thanks.
Air suspension - I think that came out in 1957. By 1958 there were probably kits to get rid of it.
Nice detective work.
But could we call this Loose
Connectór factory Mistake? Or someone Has previously been there ?
Anyways, customer's satisfaction is your priority!.
Green Fix🤞🏻💯❣️
I honestly don’t know. I can say the connection was clipped in correctly and didn’t seem like it was ever pulled loose but the doesn’t mean much. The fact that it locked back in leads me to think it was never locked to begin with.
@@autodiagyt Okay, Great fix..
oh yes merc use the same little can piggy back blocks . absolutely awesome . makes diagnosing can much easier than the normal agro of either unplugging modules or jumping terminal blocks 👍👍 . actually used my scope this week pwn heater circuit 👌👌👌 worked a treat to determine one of tge mosfets had gone belly up in the controls .i did think of you as i was using it , thinking jake would be proud of me , pulling myself out of the dark ages and using a bit of tech . not my $2.00 test light and some bulbs on some ropy looking wires i have made 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
lol nice
These exact symptoms on my 2013 Ram 1500. Turned out to be no comms to a trailer brake module.
Very nice diagnostic work, Jake. I presume you are using your TopDon Pheonix Smart? Any recommendation for a more cost effective scan tool for part time DIY diagnostician - something in the $700 range? thanks.
Yes I’m using the Smart. The Phoenix Lite 2 is a very capable scan tool that’s close to that amount.
Love can ,one fault and all goes down, you find it and fix it all, become the bid hero 😂
😊😊👍👍

Just curious. What do you charge for a job like this. Excellent video.
I believe I billed 2 hours on this truck but I just bill my time rounded up.
Do you know what that pin under the Seat was for?
My educated guess was it's the ground for the seat module. That's just what makes sense.
It’s amazing when one bad ground can take down a whole system, you would think that the engineer’s would know that. SMH
Did you ever find out what that little box was that someone wired in under the seat? Thank you
No I didn’t. It was an auction car so no known history and I never googled the name that was on it.
This little module is for the suspension when u delete air ride so it doesnt say service air suspension suspension @autodiagyt
@@franzwiens well it's no longer in there lol. They was ok with the message coming up since it had been swapped to coil springs.
I have a question for you about my 2019 ram 1500. Is there a way I can communicate with you? If you don’t mind.
Email is on my page
Jake, what brand was that work light that you were using under the seat?
I’m not sure right now I’d have to look at it lol. I bought it off the gear wrench truck that runs my area. I’ll try to remember to get the name tomorrow and post it.
@@autodiagyt Ok
@@joeandgod1 lumastik 8 and lumastik 12
@@autodiagyt Ok, I'm gonna look them up, I need a good quality work light, thanks.
Sounds like someone needed a Fues and stole one they thought were not needed
How do you like the Topdon scope?
It’s not as good as a pico but much better than the snapon. It’s pretty similar to the autel ultra scope from the little bit I’ve used one. To me it’s easier to pull this scope out and get the captures I need than getting the pico but if I need to do something complex or needed longer buffers and better detail I’d use the pico.
Cool deal. I’ve looked into getting one, but haven’t seen a ton of videos with people using it so I’ve been hesitant. I’ve had good luck with other Topdon products so far. Anyways, thanks for the response and keep up the great video content!
@@automotiveinsight if I didn’t have a scope and I did have a topdon scan tool that is compatible with the scope I’d buy it. If I had pico money I’d get that first but I’d still get the topdon scope eventually just because it’s faster and works perfectly fine in 90% of situations.
@@autodiagytgreat info. Thank you! Hopefully we’ll get to see you using it some more in your videos.
@@automotiveinsight I’ve used it in a few videos
