Those scanners that read the codes saved me thousands of dollars, a friend had one and it found the code and he helped me replace it and only cost about $150 in parts and about 3 hours of time. A garage would have charged a fortune. I fixed 3 items in the car I had and had the vehicle the longest ever I've owned one. They are an amazing item. Great job finding and fixing the issue. Well done.

If you mean the clips that lock the plugs into the solenoids, their purpose is to prevent the the plugs from vibrating off. I'm sure the it's ok to temporarily operate the vehicle without them but I would look for the new ones at an auto parts store.

I recently had a new camshaft changed placed due to the code, I drove it for a while the check engine light came back on. I returned to the mechanic and he cleaned and asked me if I had a recent oil change which I did . Could this also result in a timing issue?

@JohnCRV Жыл бұрын

As I mentioned in the video, Its possible , the last resort is a timing issue. I would wait till the engine light comes back on. It could be there was residue from the oil that clogged it again. One thing about these 4 c engines, they need oil change when its due. So hopefully you wont need to go further.

What settings do I set my multimeter on,?

@JohnCRV 2 жыл бұрын

Sorry I missed your question. The setting depends on the type multimeter you have but it should be on Ohms. This setting is used to measure the resistance, which is measured in ohms. The function on its own is called an ohmmeter. A great way to check the accuracy of your multi meter is to get a resistor that you know the resistance of, and use the ohms setting to test the resistance. If it reads correctly, you can be sure that your DMM is accurate. The ohm setting also a quick and easy way to test the condition of fuses - if the meter reads OL, the you can be sure the fuse has blown. SAFETY NOTE: only test fuses with the ohms setting when they are OUT of the circuit. Check this link for more info; www.themultimeterguide.com/multimeter-symbols-guide/

And it happened all of a sudden. Now after order a sensor for what I thought was the problem, Which I Could only do at the dealership. TheYve had my Vehicle since sept the 14.

@@jorgecarrejo7562 You have done the following: If it has been a long time since you’ve changed your vehicle’s oil, or you find that there may be a reason to believe that the oil thickness is wrong, change the oil and see if that clears P0011 in your Chevy Equinox. You have changed intake actuator for a 10 or 11 code and or the exhaust actuator for a 13 or 14 code. Changing the intake actuator should have fixed code 11 as well, the only think I can tell you is to check the electric connection to it to make sure it's making good contact. If all the above doesn’t remove codes, then timing chain/belt jumped. You’ll have to get some mechanic advice with that. Good luck!
