My two cents: I did like the format. It is what really happens.

Hey Wes...as a former USMC electronics technician, now disabled, I enjoy both the breadth and width of content. I also used to haul for a heavy equipment repair shop so the crawler build was nice to see and also I shared it with my former employer who owned the repair shop (now retired); he is now watching. Content can be so individually specific so just keep plugging away. I think your personality and how you narrate through what you’re doing has something to do with the audience you attract. My wife and I appreciate the family guy running his own business perspective too. As for the speed sensors, clearly they were not reading correctly as you took the reading isolated from the rest of the abs circuit so you had to remove each one individually and clean the seat surface. One of them would have broken regardless. Don’t sweat the small stuff!

If this was a "How to diagnose and fix...." show set up for people to research how to fix a specific issue, then I'd say be more specific. It's not, it a Watch Wes Work video where we come and hang out and let you do all the work.

Don’t change a thing. I like the fact that you even upload your mistakes and the fact that everyone is learning every day. No, there was no mistake in you replacing left and right speed sensors. BTW - I am not an auto mechanic, or so I want to be, I just like to watch a skilled repairman figuring out issues. Don’t let the “Monday morning quarterbacks” get you down. They are not you and they are not there in the game with your repair. My rant is over...........for now.

just take us along for the ride, what ever comes up is fine by me,cheers.

Don't worry Wes you're doing mighty fine and it's very entertaining, at least that's my opinion, as usual it was a pleasure to watch you work🛠 my man, thanks.👍😊

So I don't come here for the "how to" because I only have 2 cars, I come here to watch a master and pick up the little tips and tricks so I prefer the multiple cars and randomness, keep up the good work man

Wes, perfect content. If Trouble shooting was linear there would be no need for mechanics.

I’m good with the current format, it’s real life and what happens when you get in to projects instead of the edited, almost scripted appearance of others on KZfaq!....that being said are you ever gonna head back out to location “X”? I need a crane update! 😁

thank you for doing this for us all to watch, What a great channel.

I'm a retired forklift mechanic and like the way you explain complicated electrical problems . Thankfully , forklifts were basically of simple design without needing sophisticated electronics . I pity young mechanics having to need computers and scan tool diagnostics to fix problems . Gone are the days when the back yard mechanic could fix things . Many components cannot be pulled apart , you just have to buy new or take a chance with remanufactured or second hand parts . Well done Wes ! I'm in Australia and happy I don't have to get my hands dirty anymore !

Even if you would have found the damaged wires first, you would have still had to try and remove the passenger side sensor because the voltage measurement was below 100mv due to rust jacking.

The format is fine, we'll watch anything that's educational and entertaining, your working on things we've never seen, so if you can film it we will watch it, thanks

You did the right thing, the chaffed wire was unusual and it wasn't in the procedure. You do good work. I like the format, too. It works for me.

Nothing wrong with Your format. I always learn something such as rust jacking.

I enjoy your process of elimination to diagnose a problem..very thorough

Could also of been the kind of mechanic that when the sensor broke off just told them they needed a new wheel bearing. Have seen that many times . Your a good person

Wes, I’m not a mechanic nor do I have all the special tools and test equipment you have but I do understand all that you do and explain for us. Very good explanations also! I don’t mind the long videos, but the short ones leave me hangin - haha. Whatever you and the wife put together for us is good for me! Keep it up and stay safe!

Hi Wes, it's called Watch Wes Work, not sure you're implying anything else to anyone here. I like watching you fix stuff whatever it is, mechanical, electromechanical or purely powered by electrons. Mrs Wes, different stuff coming in, watching the seasons change through your barn door...it's your work day on film. All good for me.

Hey Wes, been watching for a long time but have never commented. I can't remember working on any vehicle that I didn't have several problems going one after another. I also appreciate the fact that you are willing to admit a mistake and show what happened. I'll tell you what, if I lived in your area you would be working on my vehicles. Doing a great job.

I like what you do no matter what the format. I find you ( and your wife) highly entertaining but also very informative and educational. I very much admire what you do for us and the knowledge you share. Thanks

Wes, I love all the diversity of repair work that you do. Please don't change a thing !

Love the current format, it is why I like Andrew Camarata so much, you get to see the full process and you never know what going to all happen in the same video. It is both entertainment and informative.

It doesn’t matter what your videos are about, we’re going to watch them. Lol.

It is all good! Simple repairs to the multiple issue projects. Having a degree in industrial automation, I really enjoy learning and picking up on some of your diagnostic techniques. Technician 5 days, fixing things on the farm 2 days.....it's all good, even the occasional Huffelpuff 🤔 advertisements.

I am not here for a full detailed one item video. I just like to watch (and learn?) anything that comes your way. Repairing a CnC , replacing brakes, tearing into a crawler. Keep the different vids coming! You doing great imho :)

Most vehicle repairs start after a number of things go bad and add up to a breaking point where a customer or owner says “it’s time to get this all fixed”. So having multiple things to correct is natural for me so please stay with your format, it’s a great journey and I enjoy the lessons you demonstrate.

Your videos are re energizing me to get back into repairing vehicles. As an former USAF aircraft mechanic I love the troubleshooting you do to confirm parts and fixes, as well as the quality way you make repairs. I’m similar that way as I like things working to spec. Keep it up!

I'm not to fussed on how the format is , I just like hanging with you 👍. All the videos have been great.

T-shirt idea: "The Rust is Real" with a picture of a crusty part

Watching your channel is like hanging out with a friend while he talks about his job and how he fixes things.

You haven’t made a bad video yet! What you may find mundane is always of interest to someone because your audience ranges from beginner to expert. Your problem solving is our education and we are very appreciative.

I enjoy how you do what you do. I've been here since 12k subscribers and I'll be here when you hit 10 million. God bless you and your family.

I dont believe you threw the parts cannon at it. Regardless of the open circuit, the speed sensor was putting out less than 100mv. The other one was, but like you said, it wasnt putting out as much as the new sensor. This style of video is much better than a single issue video. Its more 'real world.' Youre almost to 100k!

It's OK to do a multi episode now and then. If you're buried in harvest season, how about some farm equipment. Everyone does truck and auto repair videos, how about sprinkling in another tractor, combine or harvester, even a repair on a manure spreader would be off the beaten path. Anyway, one of the things that makes your channel better than others is that you are not one dimensional and work on just about everything. Keep up the great content.

Wes, I like watching you dig in to the industrial stuff as much as the automotive. I particularly enjoy watching/learning how you diagnose issues.

I think the format is just fine as it is. I really look forward to your content every week.

I like how ever the it comes out. it amazes me when these vehicles work at all after being soaked in brine five months a year for even a few years

Don't change anything Wes, you're an honest mechanic that shows the warts and all of every job, we love your format and customers trust you. For what its worth I thought the speed sensor call was right anyway, the sensors were showing just over or well under anyway.

Don't beat yourself up about it. Looks like whoever mangled that wire did a quick little DIY repair job before the boss figured it out. Then they finished that pump. Anyway your test proved those sensors were about shot and the surfaces needed cleaned. That guy would have his truck in your shop again shortly if those sensors were not replaced. One of your best customers is one of your best customers because of what's seen in this video. Honest, reliable, does quality work, great customer service and I'd wager that you're prices are fair. It's hard to find a quality mechanic like yourself so take pride in that. Great video. I appreciate the knowledge and a few laughs.

I like any format I've seen from you. The short bits all chained together is kinda how I work in my service truck, so lots of small things or big things is familiar to me.

Keep it as is IMO. Nice to see you try to figure out the problems and with winter coming I'm sure you won't have many more calls to the GM distribution centre ( Ammo store for your parts cannon ;) ). Stay safe, do what you enjoy and have fun

Everything you do is a learning experience for me, I'm 73 and quit working on cars when we bought our 2005 Nissan and gave our 1994 Honda to our granddaughter, just to much electronics for me.

Dunno if I am the majority, but I'm here for the entertainment, not for the "I have this issue and want to see how it's fixed". The ones like me are way more likely to watch more of your content, rather than dip in to just see you fix "their" issue. I love the 'all problems with this vehicle' style as it gives real insight into the job you do.

all you vids dude rock. Love the reality. The honesty and candid talk. For me all of your episodes are must watch. Thanks for keeping it clean. Every now and then I can talk my son into watching your show with me....... You might have fixed the abs with the bad diagnostic but that wheel speed sensor would have had the truck back in thr shop before long.

Keep doin' what you do, Wes. I like it all....

I like it when your videos are "real life", going after whatever as vehicle comes to you. Doesn't need to be focused on a specific issue.

This format works for me. It's what happens when you take a vehicle for diagnosis and repair. Without a thorough search it's only half a job.

Hello Wes, 1st of al: greetings from Romania! I enjoy watching your videos in every format, I especially enjoyed wathching you bringing up to life old abandoned trucks, forklifts, cranes and that kind of stuff. You seem to be a really honest man that really loves his job by tackling all sorts of difficult mechanical problems. Wish all the best to you and your family!

Keep doing what your doing Wes always a pleasure to watch

You don't need to over-think the format. It's been great whether it's a sort of focused repair or a bunch of stuff mixed together. It's a show, and it's reality, but it's not a reality show. We learn and get entertained from you at the same time. Thanks for the effort you put into making these videos.

You showed the reality of modern life. Vehicles have changed a lot since I was messing about with them back in the 1960s and early 70s. Simple tools and simply adjustments with feeler gauges and perhaps a timing light. Carbs tuned as much by ear and feel. You show the vast increase in precision and the increased vulnerability of modern car systems. Vulnerable to rogue wire cuts and hostile environments like salted roads. That is how it is now. It is a fraught new world, with some trying to lock out all but their people from systems. It will be an interesting ride ahead and one that many will be happy not to trail blaze. Please continue to show it how it is, with your relaxed, easy going style, even when the jobs are far from easy to pin down.

Always a great start to my Saturday. Watching Wes Work.

Love it, don't change a thing. For me, knowledge is power, I learn a lot from your videos. Even if it doesn't apply to what I drive, it may apply to a friends machine. You're on the right track, regards from Indiana.

Dear Wes. From my point of view as an Englishman in London, I may not understand all the details of engines and criteria that American vehicles have, but your style works for me. Whether it be a major project or you just showing technical skills, like dealing with the wheel sensors, by the way I think you did it in the right order as they were janky anyway even if the wiring proved to bad, it is always a winner for me. A little home life like Mrs Wes or Kiddo putting in an appearance is always a bonus. Thanks for the entertainment and all the very best to you and your family.

I enjoy the loose format. For me the charm of the channel is seeing the reality of the jobs, warts and all. A heavily edited narrow focus video wouldn't be as much fun.

I like watching you deal with everything as you come to it jumping around is interesting keep up the good work

I like the multiple repairs. I would not worry about view count an audience takes a long time to build. I enjoy watching the old Eric O videos and seeing how he tried several formats over the years before he settled into his off the cuff style.

Wes, your format is real. At 70, I'm still turning wrenches and I've found that this is the way it is in real life auto repair. For example, I've got a Yukon that came in to check ac and front end noise. While driving to find the noise { a week of 10 miles home and 10 miles back } I finely heard the thump, but also noticed a power steering problem and the last day i got a grind on braking. On inspection, I found it needs sway bar end link bushings {noise}, front brake pads {grinding}, power steering evo valve replacement/bypass {occasional power steering loss}, a power steering pressure hose {showed a leak}, and a front cv boot/axle {torn}. AC checked out good {advised customer use of rear air cut cool down time in half after car sat locked up all day when it was hot and humid}. FYI POWER STEERING LOSS OR HARD TO TURN TIGHT IN A PARKING LOT COMMON EVO PROBLEM EASY FIX IS A BYPASS/ELIMINATION KIT. I owe a special thanks to THE CAR DOCTOR channel for this solution. He;s got a video on this fix.. Funny how many mechanics subscribe to each others channels. I don't have a channel but do sub to SOUTH MAIN AUTO, PINE HOLLOW, SCANNER DANNER, WATCH WES WORK and a few more. I know you do too. "THERE'S YOUR PROBLEM LADY". KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK AND THANKS FOR YOUR TIME AND EFFORT.

You said it. The vehicles you get in have multiple problems. I like watching you tackle all the issues on the vehicle before it leaves your shop.

Hey Wes, I liked this format just fine. I'm happy to watch more of these multi issue fixes. Thanks for making such great content!!!

Hey Wes I’m a 2nd year auto electrician and I love watching these types of videos I learn a lot from you so please keep up with these types of videos!

I like the "meandering mess" format. Especially when the video is long enough to require 2 beers to watch.

First with the abs issue it still had the air gap problem even if you found the wiring problem first. So the system had two issues regardless. You didn’t shotgun a part in. Hindsight is always 20/20. As far as your videos, the way you make them currently brings people along who may not understand what it is truly like to be a tech in today’s day,. They don’t understand how issues can snowball quickly or how there may be multiple issues on the same system. The issue with the abs on this truck illustrates that perfectly. You had no idea the abs had multiple issues and most people don’t grasp the reason why it can take so long to diagnose things. The way you make your videos show very well what it’s actually like to be a tech instead of TV version. I appreciate you work on a wide variety of things which a lot I don’t necessarily work on or see.

As always, love the videos. I like that you post a good mix. I am really enjoying the crawler rebuild series and today's video was perfect especially in regard to the diagnostics and short discussion on the ability to program. I really appreciate the fact that you seem to show everything, it helps me as a young person in the field remind myself that things don't always go as planned. Thank you for the inspiration to fix things correctly and run proper diagnostics. I put in my two weeks at my current shop yesterday so that I can move to a more updated (and organized) shop. On to better things!

Liked the vid, admiring all the knowledge you have and I am always learning something new. The rust is same here and the multiple faults as well. So, very satisfied on the content you create. Thanks and keep them comin' :)

I enjoy the multiple repairs on the same vehicle. Especially fixing someone else’s effort before it was brought to you.

An excellent video made even better by a Mrs. Wes appearance and her great smile!

Wes I enjoy the videos because I find them interesting as they are. I don't have a tractor, forklift or a commercial truck etc... but I still watch. BTW the wire cut on camera looked like it could have been rodent damage. I've had to fix that multiple times where I live as we have pack rats that love to get under the hood and munch.

Love the content. I enjoyed this type of vid showing several different things, and the fact it was under 30mins vs the ones that approach an hour. Like seeing Max also.

Great content. The great thing about your channel is that you show the process of the job, rather than simply focusing on ‘the fix’.

Don’t mind the video format. Just do what ever you want. More content is always better for me.

I love the words he uses like we're eating crow Tonight and lights are on but nobody is home

I like this stile too, my only suggestion would be, if it is possible to position the camera, like on the ABS wire repair, there is the problem, next shot, there is my fix. Speaking for myself I wouldn't mind seeing some of what you had to go through from finding the broken wire to fixing the wire.

I will watch you CLEANING THE SHOP Wes!!! Make what ever YOU want. We LIKE you and your attitude!!!!!!

Love seeing this sort of video, as it shows the sorts of problems you can come across during a repair and how out of hand a simple repair can end up becoming. I also think that you made the right choice on changing the abs sensors, as there was obviously a problem with those, as well as the damaged wire. With regards how that could have happened, I've had similar, with a stick getting jammed up in the wheel guard and damaging a wiring loom

Keep the vids as they are, all machines all problems get sorted one way or another. I would watch paint dry on your vids just for the humour of there's your problem lady 😂😂. Keep up the fantastic work. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe and healthy 🇬🇧

Hi Wes, your vids are great show us everything, fantastic source of info and knowledge. Many thanks.

Great video, Wes. Like the way you take us through what really happens, good and bad. Real life. Don't change. Also, Bangladesh workshop is what normally happens, as well. Now while watching you do your thing it's "bonus footage" when Mrs. Wes makes an appearance and banters with you. Also real life.

What a treat. A Saturday morning video from Wes!

Truth is both wheel sensors where low voltage so one was bad other was going that way. Probably needed them or very shortly would have needed them both.

Love the videos wes keep up the hard work!! You do an amazing job! I love how you do the video even if all over the place or not. Either way its very entertaining!!

Hi Wes, there are people that are do-ers and people that watch. You are a ‘do-er’. Keep doing what you do! I watch because of your diagnostic skills and explanations. I don’t own a Duramax but most of the problems are universal and your knowledge is incredible! Keep being you. One quick trick I learned on a diesel VW, unplug the coolant sensor, Veh thinks it’s -40 and runs the glow plugs for a long time. Easier trouble shooting with current clamp per glow plug.

Don’t change. It’s why I watch your videos. These are like “... a day in the life of a regional mechanic.”, not a how-to instructional training film.

I like how you operate, you do a good job. No complaints. Just at the end there, the wife peers over my shoulder, says what the hell is he doing?! What you mean he’s patting the dog. She’s like ohhhhhhhhh. 🤣

My 10 cents - over here in Europe, we're finding more and more wiring damage caused by rodents; manufacturers are trying to use less oil-based wire covering, in favour of something more environmentally friendly, the only problem is some rodents are attracted to the smells being given off and are having a quick snack.

I like the format, and watch because I enjoy learning your critical thinking process along with the entertainment factor! Your explanations have helped me understand much more about how modern car electrical systems work, thanks!!

I like following the whole story and your current format. If there's a main premise or problem you want to focus on and put in the title, why not just put the timestamp on that part so folks can skip to it if it's someone looking for a tutorial? Best of both worlds. Keep up the good work!

Show me everything. When I stop driving cars that were built in the Dinosaur era I'll know how to fix the new ones.

When you first checked the speed sensors they failed the Mv test. So you did right in replacing them. You tested and they failed. No parts cannon fired here in my opinion.

I’m just a watcher, not a doer working on vehicles. Given that, I enjoy your videos like this one. For what it’s worth.

I like the format of this type of video, shows what happens in the real world of multiple issues. Great job, thanks Wes.

I have no problem with the format of this video...no need to regiment them into one fix per vid.

Wes I would watch you paint a house as long as you included commentary

I too enjoy this format. It's a better "taste" of real life wrench turning. Thanks Wes from a fellow resident of Hellinois.

I think the problems you encounter show real world problems from real world vehicles. Happens all the time. I liked seeing things from the mechanic's point of view. Nice job:)

Like this format...get in some junk and then move out a working running vehicle!

No way a simple repair how to could be more interesting

I'm enjoying the current format. Wes does a good job explaining how things work and how to test. I'm learning a lot about modern cars and the new tech in them. The family story is interesting too. This has become one of my five most watched channels.

Keep on showing us and doing what you do. Not a whole lot of mechanics that I would trust to work on anyone of my vehicles but, you sir I would be proud to call you my mechanic. Anyone can throw parts at the problems but it takes a real mechanic to troubleshoot and diagnose the problem. You are one of the truly great ones does not matter what you are working on. I will be watching them including the advertising as long as they stay under one minute of which you do not have control over.Thank you for the teachings.
