Your vast knowledge on how those systems work is simply staggering. The fact you knew that someone had to actually remove the option for the computer to set that code left me gobsmacked. A mere mortal would never have figured that out. Another great video.

Jake thanks for sharing. Appreciate how you explain your troubleshooting and how the system works. I hate when people take shortcuts and do sloppy repairs. Damn just by a portable soldering iron and shrink rap. Nice work enjoy your weekend. Artie 👍

I envy you on how relaxed you take your diagnosis. At the dealer we don't even get a chance to diag anything properly before they have 2 more waiters stuffed behind you.

Great thought process, straight to the point, Jake! Many of these odd faults result from someone else's careless jobs. ECM not reporting pressure sensor connection fault didn't help either.

This is why i love diagnostics. Its such a rewarding job. Great diag

Good one for sure. I'm wondering if there was a problem with those but connections and just handling it could have corrected the issue, well temporally anyway. love your strategy of using your scan data to prove out circuit integrity! Nice to see a diagnostics procedure without the scope. Keep up the good work Jake! Thank you for all your video content!

Jake, hope you didn't get too wet putting that truck back together. I really like the way you work down to the problem as well as your explanation. I put a couple of but connectors in my car and they worked fine for about a year. I believe I'll be going back in with a soldering iron because the vehicle is starting to act up again. Swallowing my pride! Thanks for Sharing!

Great job this is the mobile diagnostic curse unfortunately, problem vehicles that eat heavily into brick and mortar shops time and money become your problem, deleted and tuned vehicles are a nightmare sometimes but you stuck to your process and got it done

Nice video and diagnosis. I guess knowing the systems and knowing where to look saved the day.

good job , im with you on topdon drives me crazy having to adjust , they did this on their last update , cheers Jake

Great job amazing diagnostic video .. no dtc no problem fixing it 💪💪

Nice job Jake! I sensed the obvious frustration of repairing someone's attempted hacks. I don't like touching diesels either for the same reasons. Most of the time when I open the hood, I see parts missing and connectors unplugged. I cringe. That's when you want to charge double. Engineers design these parts for a reason. Diesel's have plenty of power to begin with. Leave them alone! Thanks again for sharing your experience and time.

Very helpful content surely it will save diag time for many reasons. Cheers 🍻

👍glad they're are real mechanics like you!

That positive lug on the alternator tripped my OCD... Risky close to short!

Outstanding job man

Thank you for sharing your knowledge sir

Did the customer purchase the truck in this condition (deleted)? If so, why the heck didn’t he take it to get inspected…..or maybe he didn’t care it was modified? Superb job like always, Jake!

I’ve ran across this issue with a tuned 2016 corvette once. I used HP tuners to go through all of the DTCs to see what all was disabled and reenabled some DTCs that shouldn’t have been turned off. Some people need to learn a little bit more about tuning before they just start disabling DTCs at random. The heat shrink butt connectors are fine when done properly but those stupid solder loaded butt connectors are trash. They don’t flow like they should and are a horribly designed product. I like to solder but I have no problems with butt connectors when used with a proper crimping tool and heat shrink.

That was great big guy.

Had the same exact experience, replaced EBCM, sent new ECM for tuning, replaced lower engine wiring harness, fuse block on both sides of engine bay and it finally was good for a year. Now the problem is back. I’m gonna check that connection at the pressure sensor and see if that pigtail has a bad connection. But being the fact the truck is tuned and deleted has nothing to do with a bad connection at the fuel pressure sensor

people dont understand in the old days before electronics you could do crimp connectors. the circuit ran in amps and a small volt drop did little if anything to affect the circuits. now with electronics signal circuits are miliamps. there are still circuits you can get by with crimps but anything that goes to a computer or module NO!!!!!

Awesome video!

Great video

Nice diag and repair.enjoyed the video.keep them coming.good useful info.

👍👍 great use of scan data . why don't they just leave them alone. i dont even change the factory radio lol

Now you understand my pain lol but great job 👏

wow good one tks

As long as repairs keep goingbits job security and money for techs that have knowledge

Exellent.

Grasias

Great video mot failure surely with the emissions components missing

Great video, I have a 2018 Sierra Denali just bought 3 weeks ago. Today it had the sudden loss of power with the Engine reduced power alert. So, I check def and it was ok. When I started back up power returned, and message is gone. I have the check engine light still on. I guess I'm off to the parts store to get a new code reader, after I check the connections. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

👍👍👍

a pain deleted components a pain pain pain well done there

I have found that sometimes reduced power with no codes the codes are in permanent code list. Wont be in engine codes.

I have a hero truck but it was done before I bought it. So some of us can’t help that.

I think somebody set to many FFFF values on the error code map table :-) 😀 it's alright to delete dtc code setting criteria in the map but do it only if its not effecting engine power 😀

Says on left side of your scanner high pressure range is 3480 psi max not 4800

Nice job Jake! Shitty butt connectors 😝 Solder and heat shrink FTW brother 😎💪

Maybe the fuel cooler I know I need to replace mine there's no codes maybe the sending unit or both.

my 2018 it showed one time then is gone what happen there

Where you located

Unbelievable how amateurish some "repairs" can be.

Who in the wild world of sports would want to see engine speed in DEGREES PER MINUTE. That has to be the dumbest unit I have ever seen
