Ron you were truly one of the good guys , you are dearly missed by your followers and family,I learned so much from you over the years and still go to your channel for help RIP BROTHER.
I see a lot of people saying to solder the wire but factory repair procedures direct you to crimp the wires together not solder. Especially so for sensor wires, all mopar connector repair kits come with brass crimps and heat shrink tubing. Every GM fuel pump I have ever changed has come with crimp connectors with the updated connector. If installed correctly the crimp connector is a permanent repair.
+hanratty450 if he properly crimp the terminal is not really a big and last time i check still a approved repair on aircraft. so if the method is approve on higher standard why even complain :0
+ebu touy from a warranty repair stand point, it would have to be solder. I know it's not warranty work. But I'm sure he does some and would be use to it by now
+DieselTechRon I doubt you ever have seen a failure given where you are located, I wouldn’t say solder every time but at least use the fancy butt connectors with the built in heat shrink/hot glue. Its more of a concern in wetter parts of the country, although the heat shrink connectors do seem to have some vibration resistance in addition to being water tight. Where I live they put magnesium chloride down on the roads during winter, that butt connector would be full of the green death within a few years.
Butt connectors are a last resort for me, and never a permanent repair. Any communication wire to and from a sensor should be soldered. I have learned a lot from your videos about 6.0's and you seem to be legit, so this caught me off guard when I saw it.
+trouble maker So would I. Good thing they never fail if you use the right size and do it correctly. Why is everybody wrong including a major automotive manufacture? Could it be that you need to rethink the repair? Not arguing but you keep it up when people keep trying to help. I have more solder failures then crimp. I support my family on failed solder joints in the Ficms. Who's going to educate people your way? What temps do I use? What about prep and types of solder? Gauge and mix of silver? Or do we just "solder it"

R.i.p. Ron , you helped me so much . You are a true great guy.
Like always great video. You are my favorite tech. Easy instructions even for the auto mechanic challenged.

Thanks Ron.
Very informative
had this same code at one time. was was the 2nd intake air temp sensor. easy fix. ill look at the other clip also. thanks ron.
is this the same thing with the Ford F150's i am getting that fault shortly after i picked up my truck
thanks ron
whats running in the background? thanks for the video. what do you have on your phone to let you read sensors?
Ac noise in the back ground and torque pro to monitor
R.I.P Ron
If I got this code & my sensor was slightly loose, would that cause this?
Ugh....100°. How do you do it?
No solder on that repair?

I don't care what the wire is for, SOLDER THE DANG WIRE!!! Butt connectors will leave you stranded every time.
every time? I've never had a failure yet. ever. comments are open.

"Nearly as good" I would hate to have a comeback over a crimped connection.
