This week on the show I walk you through a diagnostic on a 2015 Ford F-150 that has almost no communication on the Medium speed bus. These MS Buses have given me trouble in the past when diagnosing a circuit issue. I want to share some tips and tricks to speed up diagnostics on these vehicles.

This week on the show I share a case study that follows up from last week on a 2017 Honda CRV 1.5L turbo that would not start at times, and start but not idle at others. The shop had recently replaced the cylinder head and the engine was running prior to the work. The timing appears to be correct and no codes will set.

Quite often when attempting to diagnose vehicle issues, we are challenged with understanding the strategy used by the control module to access a circuit or component. How does it assess the circuit? When does it do it? What specifically will satisfy the module or cause a fault? Can we substitute something to satisfy the computer?

This week on the show I share a 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee that has a radio that will not adjust the volume, a Terrain switch that doesn't function at all, AND seems to have two different VIN numbers. Is the VIN mismatch the cause of my problem? Is this vehicle stolen? If not, can these issues be corrected through programming?
