In this excerpt, Bill Fulton current ramps the fuel pump on a high-mileage 2004 Dodge Status with P0300 and P0171 codes. In doing so, he determines whether there is a weak fuel supply or a bad pump. Watch Now.
Resetting and programming TPMS sensors for a Tesla is a lot like any other vehicle, and the challenge is still the same: keeping the light off.
One of the first items to be replaced on any Tesla model are the tires. This is due to tire wear from the instant torque of the electric motor. When replacing the tires, you will have to service the TPMS sensors. Tesla has used Baolong (from 2012 to 2014), Continental (from 2014 to 2020) and a proprietary sensor that uses Bluetooth. For 2021, the Model Y started to use a sensor that communicates using Bluetooth protocols. Not much is known about the new system except that the sensors are currently available only through Tesla.
First thing’s first: Find the LV battery, which could be anywhere in the vehicle.
Today, each manufacturer has its own formula for best results in their vehicles. This video is part of the Group Training Academy.
Here’s what to know to clarify cooling questions you’re asked at the service counter. This video is part of The Group Training Academy.
Some last-minute riding out West leads the team to AIMExpo 2024 for an excellent trade show!
Use a scan tool that can look at special direct fuel injection parameters and perform bidirectional tests.
Direct injection pressure is measured with sensors, and the signals are used to determine pump speed and/or volume.
The behavior of the fuel wells, pumps & sending units are often misdiagnosed, leading to fuel pumps being replaced.
Today’s modern engines put an even greater emphasis on unique cooling requirements. This video is part of the Group Training Academy.
