- The owner left her 2009 Nissan Altima sitting for a few weeks. Then she couldn't get it started...
Oh, and she has to drive it out-of state TONIGHT.
PHAD to the rescue!!
A simple jump-start turns into a fiasco...
Enjoy!
This is one of the best troubleshooting videos I ever watched. Your skills are superb.
Thank you for the kind words, Samuel! I am humbled!
@@PineHollowAutoDiagnostics I notice you use Alldata, Would you recommend that for the casual DIY'er?
this this how visual inspection should work..... narrow where to look then look. great job Dr. Ivan
Normal shop: Needs new transmission.
that's happened im sure many times!
Very sad but true + wiring repair, you know the broken wires damaged the transmission. 3 grand please.
Shit. Isn't that the truth.
........and then they simply just replace the wires. $3000 please.
tylough you mean abnormal shop
Shops in middle off United States will sell new engine and new transmission then install used , Coustomer come back for same problems then they will sell harness lol. There’s no bar control those states.
That lady is very lucky to have you Ivan.
Your customer isn't the only person who's suffered rodent damage. Here, they eat my garden hoses, my plastic gasoline cans, they even ate the lead flashing from around my chimney. (No, I'm not kidding.)
Another elegant diagnosis by Dr. Ivan. You have my respect, sir.
Kevin Byrne holy shit!
sounds like "tree rats" aka squirrels, dirty little pests if they want to be.
Great video start to finish. Clear explanations on how to approach the problem. Working in the dark with a headlamp was admirable,
As soon as you said it's been sitting for a while and looking at it's surroundings I knew it had rodent damage 😂👍
hillary's henchmen rodents?
That's racist. I'm offended for the poor rat. We should just let them run free. They were here first. If they are so hungry they have to eat wires that's your fault. We shouldn't be allowed to use anything potentially toxic fixing the wires in case they need to come back. In fact, just give them the car. They deserve it. Make it a sanctuary car.
lol that solder will give them cancer in california
I propose a new tax on motorists in California and New York to pay for food distribution in their neighborhoods since we, the invaders have taken it away from them. And then starting with year model 2020 all cars must contain a minimum percentage of it's parts made from materials that are wholesome for rats to eat, managed and enforced by both the FDA and the ATF banning the possession or use of any weapon of any type that could be used in the commission of a rat murder. Then let them vote in the next election.
(I feel so dirty posting this even as sarcasm)
InsideOfMyOwnMind sad but true
It makes perfect sense now. So cool that a visual inspection in the right area guided you to a fix. Pretty neat stuff.
Awesome video. No parts required! Visual inspection for the win! & was able to get her back on the road. Thanks for bringing us along Ivan!
Excellent diagnosis and repair, you know most shops would have made the owner leave it and rake them over the coals when it was finished, great job 👍
Always enjoy watching your videos to learn from ..i got a small needle nose vice grips that i welded one side to a piece of i think 3/8 plate steel may be 4x4 inched . What this does is hold a wire or a connection of sorts while i solder it . I adjust the vice grips to the desired grip and it works ok . I used this several times .. thanks for the educational videos good job on building the jumper or whatever you call it hold the wires to solder them . I remember this and build a couple . Thanks
Ivan excellent job. Nice that you caught a break with the visual inspection. Get it break. Haha. Your customer should be very happy. I can imagine what other shops would of done. ( you know what I mean ).
She was very happy that her Nissan was driveable and reliable once again :)
Visual inspection for the win!
Really nice troubleshooting Ivan ! Plus working in the dark. Dislikes to this must be local transmission shops !
Ivan
Great video, case study, and diagnosis. 'Visual inspection for the win' - I love it! Great job.
Thank you and God bless
Paul
I work at a GM dealer that make over a hundred grand a year,they don't have the diag know how or the heart that you do.you and ERIC O are awesome people thank you don't ever change
Good job there Ivan. Those friggin mice wreak more havoc on cars/trucks that live outside. Also glad to see you used the adhesive lined heat shrink tubing on the repair..
I bought a '73 Corvette from the original owner who said the passenger side power window hasn't worked in years. Rodents. Upon inspection about 6 inches of the power wire going to the motor was chewed through and in it's place was the rodent nest. Fortunately no rodents were home when I removed the nest.
First saw you on the Eric the car guy get together, after this You are awesome! I specialize in wiring, and appreciate your attention to detail. Thank you for such good quality of the video.
Nice work as always brother, it's so enjoyable to see when you find the problem in any car,keep videos coming please 👍👍👍
Good job! Your flow chart approach was awesome. Beside South Main Auto, you definitely are very good. And as a mobile mechanic myself, I really appreciate your work.
Thank you for the kind words! It's more of a common sense scientific logical approach... Flow charts usually suck haha
I'm an electrical engineer who owns a 2012 Nissan Altima 2.5S with 78K miles with no issues, but I've learned a boat load from you. I wish you were my auto technician.
Appreciate the feedback, Dexter!
Even rodents can't stand CVTs.
hahaha good one!
LMBO Haha
lol, me too
This guy deserves a lot more subs. A whole lot more.
I’m four years late to the party, but by 2023 I have learned about Deoxit and liquid electrical tape. I also learned about Hondas split loop designed to repel rodents. Two of these items I’ve learned from Ivan.
I think applying all three to this job would have allowed a repair to the chewed wire without cutting and resoldering. With a proper depin tool kit, that wire could’ve easily been removed from the harness and heat shrunk, too. That’s assuming the little mouse didn’t get any of the strands risking future breakage, couldn’t see that from my phone. It’s so easy to armchair quarterback!
Great visual inspection! Love the videos and great care to attention on the quality repairs as usual! Keep up the great work
Sweet fix Ivan. I've never seen a broken wire on a car in all the years I've been working on them. Must be very satisfying to find and fix one like that. Thanks!
Never seen a broken wire? Hmmm I see it all the time around here haha
Excellent repair ivan, you saved the day again :-D
I was gifted a butane iron, it was an odd brand but my god didn't it heat the soldering tip quickly lol.
With the good old heat shrink i sorted out a wiring hackup, why people make such a mess i don't know, odd people lol.
You are a lifesaver . Your customers are blessed!
Good Techs are like fine Wine. Few and Far between. Most Dealers would love to hire a great Electronics Tech like you. Great job!
Glad you heard me from the future screaming at my screen "Don't forget the heat shrink tubing !!!".
As soon as you started listing out all the problems and mentioned the car had been sitting, I thought a little critter has been chewing on a harness somewhere. Sure enough....I've had the same thing happen to my wife's Nissan 2006 350Z. It has just over 30K miles on it. Doesn't get driven all that much.....went out one day, fired it up, and the fuel gauge was not working, fuel low light was on.....I thought great, the sending unit is bad. I pulled the access cover to find a chipmunk had been living on top of the fuel tank. It had chewed through the sending unit wires and almost through one of the 12V feed wires for the fuel pump.
This is why it pays to have a garage. Rodent damage sucks big time. And as always, great work, Ivan.
ya i had some wires chewed and boy lots of fun locating them them having to fix them in a tight spot bravo ivan ur the best
You are the best mechanic.
Even under pressure you rocked it . saved the day
It was a rush lol
PHAD, the gold standard in diagnosis and repair!!!
Ivan! Great video! Good case study! I'm surprised that in your state that you have rodent problems eating wires! We don't get that in Idaho. Weird! Anyhow, I was going to ask about those Clippers, but I got the answer from someone's comment.
Nice little fix! At least it's not gonna be another CVT swap, haha! I just did my tranny swap on my Suburban. Royal pain in the a$&!!! As it's got 4wd system, presents more problems, clearance issues etc. At least I got it done in a day. Haha. Have awesome weekend with Amanda. Take care, bud!
Hey Josh! A transmission swap in one day is always an accomplishment!
Great job ivan that was cool nothing like soldering a joint and seeing your shrink wrap laying on the ground!
Great Job Ivan still busting out videos even with another job going on. Always a pleasure watching
Hey Mike good to hear from you! I got a whole bunch of vids lined up but no time to upload them haha!
Check out a TS-100 soldering iron that runs off a laptop computer power supply (which in turn can be powered by a inverter off a portable jump-pack or directly off the car battery when you are out in the field or not near a 120V power source). The soldering iron is amazing small yet very powerful & the adjustable temperature control is amazing. I have not needed any of my other soldering irons since picking up my TS-100 a couple months ago. Tons of reviews and demos of the TS-100 on CZcams for you to check out.
Cool! Will have to look that up...
He is right about the iron, good deal, get one.
I also mentioned the ts100. I just put alligator clips on mine and use my cordless drill battery to power it. its awesome when doing work in the field
I use the Cold Heat soldering Iron. I was skeptical about it but for small automotive wires it works great. Less aggressive than the butane torch. Nice vid, I thought it would be a failed transmission like it did on a Nissan we owned which had a CVT.
One very very happy customer on a Friday night after a day's work.Have to say that is the work of a truly dedicated mechanic.Nice fix. Dying for a smoke, any chance of a cigarette ? Erico is all out ,no dice.
@Pine Hollow Auto Diagnostics they make an excellent silicone tape these days that actually tightens up around the wires as it ages which is almost like heat shrink tube but without having to cut the wire to feed it over.
You can buy it in hardware stores for repairing garden hoses.
Back again with the CVT! Awesome! I love learning about them more.
Thanks for taking us along on a real time diag and fix under time pressure, nice job and hope u and the mrs and diagnostic dog had a good fourth
We did. Petey the Diagnostic Dog was with us in spirit :)
Thanks for working and trying to balance the camera at the same time. Vids are always valuable.
I shoud have set up some better lighting...but time was of the essence!
Brother you are a truly mechanic well done!!!
Super job Ivan! After-hours house call, and all. Well done.
Awesome diagnosis and repair, but it looks like it would have been incredibly awkward repairing it on the ground in the dark like that! Well done.
The access was actually pretty good with the wheel out of the way :)
They do make shrinkwrap that you can put around the wire - it's used in underground electrical splices - it has a zipper on it then you shrink it down - but its big and you need a serious torch to shrink the thing..
man this is such a great video!! very informative. This is a good start for me because i had the p1777 code, changed out the valve body inside the transmission and now im getting the p1778 code. (im stuck in high gear "ratio") could you do a part two on how to check the rest of the troubleshooting? please and thank you very much!
Most likely internal leak. Will need a rebuild or replacement.
Did you have any luck with it?
Mine has P1778 code also. Was going to order a new valve body but was told the trans is pooched.
Mine drives fine till it hits about 45mph or 60kmph and then it wont shift anymore...but below that it runs awesome, no issues. Code only comes back if you push the gas hard and make it rev to about 4K rpm...
In the workshop manuals, Nissan states in the Electric section that if you are leaving the car sitting for a long time without running it or having a charger on it, that you should Pull the "Elec Parts (Bat)" fuse in the fuse box (usually the cabin fuse box), and this will stop any drain on the battery. Stated both in the workshop manual for my 1995 A32 Maxima (Cefiro to you guys) and the workshop manual for my mums 2010 J32 Maxima (J32 Teana to you).
Hopefully you find that tip useful for dealing with Nissans that are sitting for long periods of time.
what's a manual? people don't read them, if they did they'd pull the fuse, forget about it and end up with a tow bill anyway ( flashback to Eric-O's video with fuse missing lol)
Simple solution to that, stick the fuse with some tape somewhere were it is clearly visible when getting in it with a note on it as a reminder. If people want to be so lazy they cant even do that. that is their problem and they will only learn the hard way with wallet damages.
you're asking far too much, most are lucky to keep a they keys and find the vehicle to drive :))
Fun diagnosis, and everything went like clockwork!
More or less lol
LOVE the Russian joke: "...to the dacha" (26:00). NICE touch! Still surprises me when you speak Russian, as you sound like a native English speaker.
👍 I’ve been watching quite of few your videos clip and really enjoy your Excellent work done also saved a lots money for car’s owner Thanks for sharing and learning something new as you found a cracked on spark plug 💐👏
I had a smile on my face and a big thumbs up, well done!!
Thanks Roxanne! The customer was very pleased and relieved that she could drive her Nissan!
Ivan, It's a good idea to cover all the colored wires with electrical tape all the way. Think rodents can see color and they think the colored wires are edible food. Had the same issue with an evap wire one en express. The factory should also always cover the exposed colored wires to prevent this issue in the first place. Great debugging method.
Nice job Ivan. Good to see someone else almost forget the shrink wrap. Not only less heat from the iron but I like the thinnest solder I can get also. I forgot what the diameter is but its the smallest I could find on Amazon.
Yeah, I've been looking for "Shrink-tape" myself. Best I found is the liquid tape. Wow, that transmission ground sure has the green crustys.
009to090 [plumbers stretch tape], waterproof anything, works great for wire repair
009to090 i call them green weenies ( spoiled hotdogs ) lol
Radio Shack made shrink tape, about 30-40 years ago, but discontinued it. (I'm old enough, to remember it.)
Just a shade tree guy, but can't tell you how many time I have discovered, in retrospect, an issue that a thorough visual exam would have found. Of course, this problem was really buried.
Car sitting for a month, and she calls the mechanic only when the battery is dead in the last hours before a long trip. And she knew the battery was dead for a week. Good planning!
Another fantastic video and fix. Great job Ivan. No rest for the wicked lol
Hey Ivan!!!, to bad your country team lost today, cause you would have had a win win situation . Nice Diagnosis as always!!!!
You look a little tired Ivan. Mama probably could have come up with a better way to spend a Friday evening. You helped that lady out and probably saved her a lot of money doing so. Nice job young man!
Yeah had to save the day in this case lol
Pine Hollow Auto Diagnostics You can’t go wrong helping people.
I bet the rodent was uploading to his CZcams Chanel "Let's see Ivan fix this shhhh.... Sugar!" Great job Ivan!
Good job, Ivan! Be careful with that parasitic draw though. I think it was Eric O... In one of his videos, the parasitic draw appeared only after one hour of the car being locked. So if you have checked that draw after all the systems go off (5-15 minutes) it could be that the battery can go flat again! Apparently in some cars there are systems that wake up after X hours to do something and if the electrical circuits are not good, bye bye battery!
Nice diagnosis and field fix, Ivan...
Ivan, thank you for what you do that show us the right way how to fix those problem . cheeeeeers
Great vid. 109k miles on that still going strong!
109k miles is nothing these days...for most cars!
I had the very same issue. Car was running rough and i was getting the same code. Checked the wires and everything was fine. I finally went to the too of the engine and the 2 ground wired that sit at the top of the engine wiring were loose. I bolted them tight and that fixed my entire issue.
I wonder if there was wires chewed up elsewhere.... bad time to think about and mention it, my specialty :))
This kid is no dummy. Plus he is bi lingual. Nice job Igor !
As usual great diagnose approach. Have a great weekend
Nice troubleshooting & fix Ivan!
Another reason why I went with a manual tans when I bought my Altima. Less wiring to worry about lol, great job
I really do like your " Ah, man " moments
po1777 stepp motor on the valve body, I just change a transmission with the same issues. bad steppmotor on the valve body. either replace the transmission or replace the valve body
Сижу смотрю, слушаю английскую речь, думаю: "талантливые там у них ребята", а он такой на родном: "снимаем видосик!"
Excellent work! Also there are cordless soldering irons available. Milwaukee M12 version is great but there are also cheaper brands on the market.
Again, an excellent vieeo, excellent instruction, excellent tooling, and superior comittment to service . I am 72 and retired, too weak to work on vehicles anymore except intellectually. I am amazed at the electronic equipment you need to work competitively. Also, you seemed to speak a foreign language to someone in the background in the last part of the video. I speak only English. But have an ear for foreign speakers. Are you Serbian or Ugoslavian? Just curious I am amazed with you every time I watch you work. You just keep plugging away and always complete what you are doing. My highest kudos! Thank you for these instructional videos.
As I always say, visual inspection is first. Then the scanner, and circuit checks.
Well scanner first to read the code ;)
yeah, I tend to look and listen around before grabbing any tools, other than light and inspection mirror. of course that's diagnosing by the symptoms, sounds and smells, which doesn't work very well if it's a no start/crank :)
Great videos. I love that u shaped holder with alligator clips. I must make one!
That's a $1k Diagnostic and repair. Reduced to Catskills discount of $125.97. Great job Ivan.. I don't envy the driveway repairs.
P.S. hope she stopped for Gas b4 Bmore.
Actually, there are products out there like silicone self-fusing adhesive tapes out there that work pretty well if you can't use the heat shrink tubing. I've used them before and after the 12-24 hour curing time the bond is almost as good. The are activated by the stretch of the tape.. Just FYI to consider...
Awesome video. I love watching your videos. Nice soldering there, maybe you should consider TS100 soldering iron.
Might be worth getting a 12v soldering iron. Great vid as always!
Excelente, te envio mi saludo desde Sonora México, me gustó
Gracias, Jose!
Хорошее видеo. I enjoyed the brief Russian dialog here. I've appreciated Russian mechanics from the times I watched Lada owners crawling under their cars in the snow in Moscow during the 1990's. Toughness and ingenuity. Fixing their cars with a screwdriver and a pair of pliers. No toolcarts. Конечно, a scanner is essential for modern cars. It makes me wonder how the current generation of Russian DIY's is keeping their cars running. Parts cannon? Brake cleaner? Ivan, it's your story to tell.
I know some modern Russian DIYers who have more advanced knowledge and equipment than most dealerships lol
Your work is always so clean, kinda jealous
eh...not always!
Great find!....Maybe pickup a grill lighter so you dont burn the fingers. I use a ST250K bernzOmatic.(com) for field use, hold gas perfect and variable valve. And the plus is to use the port side for shrinking.
Great tip!
BUD I HAD A MOBILE REPAIR SHOP IN MD FOR 15 YRS .. DO IT WHILE YOUR YOUNG THANKS FOR THE HELP
I like it. You kept you're cool and thought it out. Nice. Did she make it to Baltimore? I bet she did!
The second schweet job I've seen today!
What was the first?
Eric O. welding in a universal cat on a Buick LeSabre.
Nice 👍🏼 job. Took your time followed the steps and figured it out. Not sure I like the cvt transmission. Drive and driven clutch with a steel belt. Might as well ride a snowmobile to work and to the store, sure why not.
A house call by Dr Ivan. Nice. Bloody rodents. I'll be well prepared for when i eventually do have to work on a Nissan/Renault CVT vehicle after all of this.
As for me... Well they can take my 5 speed from my cold dead hands.
haha 5-speed 4 LYFE!!
Pine Hollow Auto Diagnostics 18 speed for life
Yes more cvt! 👍
Excellent job
Nice work
Thank you Ivan.
