Ok you got me had I ever had a check engine light disappear? Well, I sure have now. Could you please elaborate on what you meant by that and how to fix that if anyway possible that would be greatly helpful
Excellent
Hi I have a 2015 Chevy Silverado that has set up about 10 months and will turn over but won’t fire off a mechanic friend of mine told me to turn the key on and hit the fuel pump with something then try to crank it ,what do you think?
AI crap.
Thankyou
AI voice telling me all the tricks it uses in it's "shop."
I just replaced the ECU and the MAIN EFI . 1992 Toyota Camry. Do you think any of these will work? I'm doing the work myself
Hummer security won't even let starter to engage
I love to lessen to you story
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aV0klTxG_GE&t=192">3:12</a> says disconnect the negative and then the positive, but clearly shows the positive disconnected first?
I finish work and my ford fiesta wont reverse, felling so hopeless with no money trying all tbe tricks i know but didn't work, so happy i found thia video i try the key on - off ( without tuning the engine) 3 times like u said in thia video, and it work like magic. Got home and try to park but yjwn my car wont reverse again. Get out of the car disconnect the (-) battery and press brake. And again it work like magic. Thank you so much
Two thousand and ten millions nissan to atlanta , sinatra
Call jurt, don't accelerate.\nAt speed
If I unplug my throttle body sensor for a few minutes will it take the check engine light out
just this and it seems to have worked
I think its helpful ☺️
I reset the my car in the radio air conditioning heater is not working my battery for 12 was bad I went to buy a new one I put it in in the car drain the battery I took all the plugs from the battery 12 and the orange one with the three clips I'm going to leave it alone and come back and put everything back on and see if it would work
I love to hear your story 👍
Thank you for this video. Tried everything with no luck. 2009 kia optima. Cranks but doesn't start.😢
I am glad that I ran across your video, I have a 2020 Hyundai Elantra 2.0 I had codes P0014.17,008 crank cam sensor now they are telling me it's my timing chain. It won't start and rides ruff. Your advice please?
I have a 97 Grand Jeep Cherokee Laredo 4.0 the check engine light reads O2 downstream sensor and Catalytic converter I had the catalytic converter changed 3 times and the downstream sensor changed 4 and it still reads those two codes. I thought maybe the ECM is bad and someone else said the same thing what you think 🤔🤔🤔
I'll put a 1A resistor in between the battery cables to drain it slowly and carefully
Fortunately I have a 94 Jeep YJ so none of this applies.
You can unplug and replug all day long, it will not solve the condition of your service engine soon light from coming on unless it's from a poor connection. Take it to auto zone they will test it out and even reset it. For free, This gives you the area to look at.
Really helpfull
It will not reset a portion ll sing compression at all will not you'd have to get a new ring you can not reset that
If I take battery cables off would it reset
How do i reset my sliding doors to my 2010 dodge caravan
I am sick of all this AI crap. It’s all bullshit.
I've used the jumper cable reset several times on my lexus LS460 and LS430 especially on transmission issues dont forget to pump the brakes it helps clear(your cars bad habits) codes. Im not a mechanic but anyone can do it
I can't start my car a2013 Benz I put the key and turn it and nothing happens, what can I do it was working fine last night.
Cool, here's me thinking "damn, I'll have to get out the foot pump, and inflate that flat tyre in the rain".
The comments he got mixed up with car problems.<br>Come on you tube . Get with it.
The biggest fix is buy electric
I came out of the storage to my 2013 Buick encore decided not to start had to check engine light on and wouldn’t start after watching this video and doing the gas pedal one. It started right up so whoever posted this thank you very very very very much because you saved me from calling the tow truck
Nice video but that AI voice is annoying .
USELESS info.. glad I only watched 12 seconds of this garbage !!!😅😅😅
Would these tricks and or one of them work on my 2012 toyota camry. My wife was driving and it suddenly died hard to steer break and lights. Went to check battery was dead. Replaced battery barely made it home. Alternator was dead. Replaced that and now it barely wants to start like the battery is dead but still has power. Battery good alternator good. Got my starter tested they said it was bad so I replaced that. Still the same issue. No corrosion on cables fuses still good. Replaced the spark plugs still no luck. Was thinkn could be the fuel pump but when it starts it's like the battery is dying like i said. Any ideas. Could it be a relay?
Also done compression test 2 time
2011 chevey 5 .3 change plugs wire switch coil and Injector have miss fire cylinder 3 and no engine light on but misfire i need help
Maybe if you stopped using euphemisms for what it feels like its doing the video might be useful. Adding the stupid computer voice its an aweful channel
I used a scanner to see what's causing my ac not to work. Nothing came up . 2013 Nissan Altima.
On a kia 2017 forte its has a knock what could it be?
I'm hoping that my failed gas tank gauge will reset after a battery swap. Very annoying. Ten minutes later and the gas gauge is working! At least now I KNOW I'm out of gas. Beats the hell out of using the odometer. Sitting in it now waiting for ten minutes to pass but the gauge continues telling me the truth. THANKS!! UPDATE It's been nine minutes and the idle just smoothed out. The gas gauge is reading true now too. It used to show accurate but would immediately start jumping around and slowly goes up to a full false reading. Right now it's still normal without all that nonsense. YOU JUST SAVED ME $150 easy. Minimum. If this is still normal after a week I'm sending you some scratch. 2nd update; the gas gauge only reads normally when I start the car. When I actually move the car the glitch returned, but now my 2003 Buick Regal ls is running better than it ever has. Saweet! At least when I start driving I know at the start what gas I actually have. I guess it's fuel gauge replacement time. In my car it's just a $150 fix. C-ya!
That AI voice is terrible, and annoying!
I have a 2005 Honda Accord that was sitting for a few months. I replaced the battery, maf sensor, and tps. Now it idles at 3000rpm. I tried all of these except the last one. It's also a 4 cylinder with a 5 speed manual if that makes a difference.
2012 Honda Civic tires changed and I can't get the lights out because my tires have been changed and I guess the sensors went bad so the lights won't go out now
I have a 2013 Ford escape and went to change battery and now it won't start. Trouble shooting didn't work 😢
thank you
I have a 2008 Lexus rx350..orileys says it is ABS sensor an has to be cleared an to go to the toyota dealership..car goes in gear an just a short time when taking off...it acts like you slammed on the breaks..only for a second an does this for a few more times ...will this after it goes all through gears...will this reset work on mine

Thankyou for the great tips i will definitely subscribe. I have a 2008 hyundai tucson automatic that starts over reving after driving approximately 8km revs normally till i drive about 5 to 8 klm if i stop turn ignition off and wait a few minutes revs settle again. Ill try your tips and see how i go. Thankyou
I have a 2013 merc c200. I am getting an anti theft activated message on my radio every time I start it. Holding the power button for 10 seconds fixes the issue but it’s a pain having to do this every time. Reckon if I do the battery disconnect it may fix the issue?
AI produced, so I’m dubious of this video….
What about audi
So, let me get this straight...the AI has it's own repair shop...😅
The square root of his VIN is 247. Quit feeding your squirrels Red Bull. Your tips are better than mine..
I have a 2009 dodge journey v6 changed the starter, Crank position sensor , camshaft position sensor A bank 1 single sensor still won’t start guy put oil in my spark plugs now it won’t do anything but click when you try and start it I’m on a fixed income help please <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aV0klTxG_GE&t=487">8:07</a>
Sorry, the total cost should read £76 not £67.
Thanks for your video which will be most helpful in the future I'm sure. It was so enlightening that I have subscribed in case something related goes wrong again with my 2010 Ford Focus here in UK. I had intermittent flashing lights and codes coming up on my dash and the local "so called" Diagnostic Centre charged me £150 to tell me that there was nothing that they could find because everything worked fine while they had it for two days. Well, as the saying goes "If it 'aint broke, I can't fix it." They quoted me £900 to remove the dash, repair the problem that they were sure to find when disassembled, and re install the dash. So I went on to You Tube and found a company that repairs the dash for £69 and then on to another guy that showed how the dash was easy to remove and replace. Short story from beginning to end, it cost me £67 in total and 15 minutes to remove and then refit the dash! The Diagnostic Centre had quoted me £300 to do the same job! I will be watching your site with baited breath. Thanks once again for the tips for the future problems that may occur.
Get rid of the cheesy AI narrator.
Try 175 now for a diagnostic test😮
Every time I turn the wheel to the right and back it makes a noise like it hit something with the engine off the steering wheel doesn't lock and I noticed that the power steering fluid over flows under the hood sometimes
Have Opel astra 1.7 cdti from 2011 and when engine is cold and I start the engine “ service vehicle soon “ pop up engine works unevenly shakes and I see blue-white smoke coming out exhaust for 1 minute after that work just fine, when I turn it off and then turn on again there is no message “ service vehicle soon “ and no smoke, I guess it is a glowing plug ? . Someone with similar problem TY
I have Honda Legend 2009 need to reset the VSA light

I wasn't aware of pressing the brake pedal, but I've used the others. <br><br>#5 I heard years ago - even though people tell me it's gonna fry the electronics, I've used it to success several times!
Thank you.😊
Thanks it's been a great help.
You can also drain left over juice by turning on you headlights while the battery is still disconnected
YEAH BUT! IT WILL RESET to a FAULT after 50 miles. THESE DON'T "FIX" ANYTHING it just clears the fault code.<br>"cheers!"
How about for a 08 Toyota tundra, any secrets?
would love to hear the actual mechanic speak to us, rather than AI…
Autozone or O'Reilly's will read all of your car computer codes and reset them to zero for free. They will also test alternators and batteries for free.
On-Run-On-Run-On-Run within 10 seconds on a Chrysler is called "Key Dance" and lets the computer blink out all stored Fault Codes on the "Check Engine" light on the dash. Codes are 2 digit numbers and whatever is stored is terminated with 55, 5 rapid blinks, brief pause, 5 more rapid blinks.<br>Ex. The code 42 is the alternator field coil is shorted.
Great video/ information. I'm A non- mechanical female 😮. I drive a standard (5-speed) 1999 Dodge Neon Highlander. You mentioned around 2005 vehicles can use the methods you demonstrated.<br><br> Will any of these methods/ techniques work on my vehicle? Again, Great Information 🤗
With AI we will probably see more sites like this crop up. They scrape the internet generate "real world mechanic solutions" and pawn them off as if the AI Robot did it. I see comments below actually "Thanking" the robot. This site is click bait to create a following to sell advertising......
could ideas, but AI driven....
car crank but don't start. a ghost is living around and just caused this for me. No other 2013 Chrysler 200 is easy, as if my car is difficult to work on. Even Scotty Kilmer said it. Online they have the 2012 and the 2015 but I don't see the 2013. Would that be difficult? Just removing the plastic dome, I had to cut 2 bolts. Meaning that the spark plugs never got changed. How else to dish out the plastic dome, very easy on the 2015 model, as if the parts fall in the hands. I remember changing the starter how much bangs had to be done because of a couple thousands of inches over. Press fit tolerances? Scotty Kilmer said it is the worse car that he worked on. Beta, prototype...
Want a system rest? Disconnect battery, neg and pos, leave alone for a good while, power drains. Faster, connect the disconnected battery cables to each other by a wire, drains system power. ECU and other modules drain residual power.
Any good scanner recommendations less than 600$?
Cheers ❤
Do these work on a 2006 Mercedes ML 350 4 matic? Thanks
Have a battery drain for 2 years....checked everything...fitted new battery....no joy<br>Any tips?<br>Thanks
Thank you!💪
What do I do when my airbag light stays on?
What’s the functional difference between #2 and #5? Don’t they both clear the ECU?
Thanks for your tips, guys I have problem with steering wheel locked and brake not engage, I'm not a mechanic but I need your help.
Any tricks for 2003 Cadillac Deville transmission code for solenoids. Runs fine but scanner is showing that code.
