Airbag Fix (Green Crusties) 

Great find - I've ordered one of those generators, probably never use it but just had to have one!

Thank you the garage was going to charge me 400 euro, I wiggled the yellow thingy and presto everything is back to normal. Keep up the good work and if you are ever in Bruges give me a sign drinks are on me 😊

As a mechanic for 20 years, Thank you for making these videos.

Ik ben echt blij jou gevonden te hebben, voor als ik een keer problemen heb. Je bent dankzij je videos de enige monteur die ik 100% vertrouw.

Green crusties on a green wire! Wouldn't you just know it! That continuity tester did the trick, and made it easier. DiagnoseDan fixed it again, and no parts required!

This blokes a legend ❤️🙏🙏🙏

Amazing technician. You make it look so easy : )

👍 great work as always! Thanks for sharing.

Great work as always Dan! Love the videos 👍😃

Do note that there is a reason for signal wires to be twisted. That is interference protection and thus sometimes important to restore when replacing wires to avoid false triggers! How large the risk is and when this really applies I can't tell but better safe than an airbag in the face without collision...

XAXA "resolve in a million views". Dan you are hilarious.

Experience diagnosis. Master nice video saludes noel matute

Tak!

Thank you for making there videos. Do you have any diagnostics books to recommend for beginners like me to learn more from about troubleshooting and all? Thank you again, Dan ⵜⴰⵏⵎⵉⵔⵜ 🙌🏻

The shop that sent this car to you, should probably shut their doors and seek a different employment path.

Solid and proven techniques once again. I like the way you consistently prove everything before moving on. That wire fault diagnosis tool is a handy bit of kit 👍🏼

Another genius diagnostic journey led by Professor Dan, diagnostic PHD.......! These videos are pure educational entertainment at its highest level.... I have watched so many different car repair videos but no other even comes close to those produced by Dan. And the humour is an added bonus. Even if car repair isn't your thing, you cant help but enjoy this level of discovery. Thank you Dan..!

Superb execution by master Dan , thank you for keep educating

8 years in the automotive trade love watching your videos to improve my technical understanding thank you keep up the good work :)

If a job this simple makes you send the car to a different shop, you really should not be working on other peoples cars.

Wonderful diagnostics. Great video as always. Post more frequently.

Dans the man. We use that locating tool in telephone line fault diagnosis. And yes I have used it on a few cars as well. Thought I was smart but turns out there was already someone ahead of me.

Wiring seems to scare so many people, including master technicians. You do a great job of explaining the process of fault finding, I am sure you are giving these people a lot more confidence in their ability to fix electrical problems.

Thanks Dan, As always, clear and precise instructions. 👍👍

hi dan Could you make a video about the recommended tools for hobby and amateur use? it would be really helpful thanks so much and GREAT DAN!FIXED AGAIN!

You make these videos so easy to follow, even I can understand how you do it, Dan. Thanks once again you always amaze me.

Great one as usual. It amaze me how quickly the other shop gave up especially since they had a really fat clue of where and what is wrong after switching the left and right sensors and noticed that the fault code stayed on the left. Seems like they rather pay you what ever you charge for that kind of diagnosis then spending thier time on it. Keep up the good work, you rock 👑👑👑

Easy fix bad from the other garage I would have just looped a new wire from connector to connector, a lot of modern cars are the same after checking for continuity follow angles of the loom

Pine Hollow Auto Diagnostics will be so happy with this no parts fix!

Dan, is there a way to disarm the airbags to be completely on the safe side or is the extra work to do so not justified?

When another repair shop sends their hard-to-solve case to Dan, it proves again Dan's diagnosis skill is at God's level. Another excellent work 💯

As a retired VW/Audi tech we couldn’t solder connectors or a splice, had to use a special crimp connector that emitted sealant when heated with a heat gun, was definitely waterproof.

It's always a pleasure to follow you step by step to solve the issues.

DiagnoseDan.. Another awesome video.. Nice job and thanks for sharing it with us.

As always.....a very useful and excellent video. Thank you Dan. My respect....!!!

Always a pleasure watching your videos. Could I trouble you for the make and model of your battery maintainer. I’m in the market for one and could do with a few recommendations. Thanks

Hi Dan! Nice episode, new devices for detecting broken wires!!! Good health and as many videos with car problems as possible.

LMAO !!!! Another great video Mr. Dan. But , “Green Crusties” makes me think about my kids …..😂

Well done Dan👍 Bit disappointed with another garage not checking properly for continuity in a wire.. basic you would think but suppose can happen to any1.

My 2007 Suzuki Reno has the airbag off logo in red and passenger air bag light says off. I looked under the seats and everything is connected. I looked at the fuses and looks ok. Any ideas?

As a mechanic for 46 years, Thank you for making these videos.😅

Maybe I missed it but I didn’t see the heat shrink during the NPR soledering process. You do realize that Ivan will see this! 👍👍🇺🇸😄

Good job Dan and bloopers too jejejeje

New video after just two weeks? This must be Christmas.

Cannot wait! Playing right away! Greetings from Bulgaria, from an automotive engineer😊

Who’s this guy; mechanic,actor, commentator, advertiser,a guy trying to be? ? ?

What concerns me is that the other shop couldn't do a basic continuity test when they learned that the problem didn't follow the sensor. When diagnosing wire breaks I was taught the half-way method. Go 1/2 way and test either side. Move 1/2 way again in the direction of the fault and continue with this method. With even the longest run on a car you'll be down to your general area in about 5 tests. You'd have nailed that general area in 3 tests. Say the length of the fault loom was 1m. Test continuity at 50cm mark. Result will tell you which way to move your testing. Test at 25cm. Test at 12cm. Area discovered within 3 tests. Called the Newtonian approximation method.

Im your devoted followers, from philippines sir,,, Sir Dan, May i know how much the ALL DATA SOFTWARE for the wiring diagrams manual?

Hi can you do a video or recommend someone in regards to using the old school automotive oscilloscope and function generator with all the sensor inputs? I can't find anything? I have a few scantools but i woud love to learn using an oscilloscope as im an electronics technician? But i don't want to use the massive engine diagnostic tool unless i know what im doing? Any reply appreciated cheers from Australia ❤. Subbed and liked 👍

I don't know, that different color of green wire might cause some confusion to the PCM. haha Great fix, Dan. I had to make an emergency repair to a coil wire chewed thru by a mouse, recently. I had to twist the ends of a red wire into the two ends of a blue wire. Worked fine until I got home and fixed it properly....with a blue wire! 😉😉😉

At NASA and USAF, we used Time Domain Reflectometer (TDR) to accurately pinpoint Opens and Shorts in wiring. It could pinpoint the problem down to a Centimeter in most cases. These units are cheap enough now that any shop should be able to afford one.

another great clip thanks Dan. cheers NZ

​@Diagnosedan You could actuallly try and get you hands on one of the newer W177s A classes as they have chronic issues with their SRS systems and do a diagnose video as to why that happen and hot to solve/prevent. It would be helpful and would certainly get you a decent number of views.

I would have used a red jumper wire just to piss off the airbag. 😀 Did the customer authorize further repairs? ... the A/C code - condenser? Tires?

Me new automobile technitian only one year experience .I'm starting watch youer diagnosis video more help full vehicle diagnosis thanak You

Hello DiagnoseDan, I would like to know how long you touched the B+ and B- connectors together to remove power from capacitors? Cheers Carlo

Soms vraag ik me af, kunnen de hedendaagse monteurs geen elektra meer repareren? Dit is toch een relatief simpel klusje? Niks afdoen aan jouw kwaliteiten Danny, maar dat men je voor zoiets simpels inschakelt....

Mr D, question for you ; I just watched a video of South Main doing a door impacted sensor, an he didn’t remove the battery cables. Plus he jumped the two pin sensor to get a short to ground instead of the high voltage ; just to get the integrity of harness. Is that a good diagnosis method. Thank you your the best

Very well done again. I enjoyed watching it. Weer heel goed gedaan. Ik heb er met plezier naar gekeken.

Would love your opinion on scanners for DIY use. Not low end units, but also so expensive that they are not justified for DIY use. You seem a very honest youtuber. Would respect your opinion

Hey Dan, great content. Learned a lot. Fixed a crank no start on a Toyota echo thanks to you. Can I ask what hand held inspection light is that you're using? Thanks from Oz.

How can AC condenser get this bad? That car doesnt look very old. Also, these tyres are serious safety hazard, i will warn customer in a written form to prevent me being liable ...

HHHH,....thanks dan but am wondering Who's going to pay for the new sensor..??

Bumper removed by a former professional, and not even checking a wire or connector fault. I would not bring my Car again to these cowboys 😅

I thought that only Indian mechanics or workshop only do so such silly things that deliver vehicle with missing fastner or nuts. But seems it applies all mechanics or workshop universally.

It is always super useful to watch your videos. I always learn something new. Never heard of a wire tracker before, thank you

Lol. Watching this video made me thinking that when I replaced the coolant radiator in my 2003 skoda fabia that I disassemble all the front parts to reach the radiator and I remember the lights connectors, the horn connector, the temp sensor connector, and that's all. Where the hell are the airbag connectors and sensors? Maybe I bought a crashed car?

If you can't even measure this simple thing as a shop you should keep working on tires and brakes and don't accept diagnose problems

I think nowadays car mechanics need to have a diploma in computer sciences, the amount of information that you need to learn to diagnose faults is mind blowing, but as per usual you got to the fault, another super post thank you again Dan, just one more little thing I learnt from working with my Netherlands friends always cut away from yourself better to cut your mate than yourself 😊

175,000+ KMs ... that's impressive for a KIA!

Dan I am struggling to make two thumb 👍 ups. Moshitoa south Africa

This video is very good for repair car wiring Think you very much Brother 👍👍👍

Awesome good job, the other shop used the parts change technique wasn't that lucky this time.

If that previous workshop could not even figure out a simple wire break then they should close shop!

Dont be too hard on yourself for the tongue twisters I used to hve the same trouble with dutch when I worked over your end of the world thumbs 🥰🥰👍👍👍👍👍

haaa hij was weer geweldig dan.. he .. gij het allemaal egg mooie spullukus ! maaru nu de vraag, hoe kom je nou in godsnaam aan een onderbreking ( bijna ) in een plastic hoes met een typie er om heen. ik weet dat alles kan en niks vreemd is. maar snappie. he bedankt weer

Nice fix Dan. Also a really nice tool. Never saw this one. Have a great day. Dutch regards, Nico.

I came across your channel due to some recommendations, only finding out that you are actually dutch :) wat een tof kanaal!

Hey there you cheeky bastid! Where have you been??? I love you Sir Dan!

Thank for the teachings but this year the video are few Please more videos should come

thanks for the information pleas Can you give me the name of the device to measure continuity

Oh noo, how could they buy a sensor and forget to buy a multimeter yet everything is right in front of them😢😢

No parts required - Ivan would be proud 😊

❤excellent diagnosis procedure and thought process

A real professional should replace the wire, not solder pieces. That's how I do it.

Dan the Man Diagnosed it again 👍 Great job 👏 The repair is above and beyond an authorised repair 👌

Why didn’t you just pull the fuse for the airbag system

Great Work! You Gave The Car The Love It Needed!

Bro i got a 93 s500 no crank no start any idea? I replace the starter and still same problem

I have little question dan bro. you connected the battery terminal by the tool is it anything reason about that?🤔

Great video dan let's diagnosed it together 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Very good smart diagnosis & repair work bud...

What a "workshop" aka part replacement facility, also great on them for missing bolts. Imagine going to them for something more serious 😂

Good tip not to use an impact gun tightening the bolts. At a Nissan dealer I worked at someone was replacing a g force sensor on an Xterra due to a recall. It was located under the center console. He didn't disconnect the battery either. Used an electric impact to tighten the bolts. Airbag went off. Very expensive mistake.

One 15Yeas old KIA vs over Million views? It's a no brainer for us.

Love from California! Peace, Dan!!!

Great example of finding broken wires thanks Dan! Always nice to see new videos, and bloopers 😀

Green crusties, someone is watching videos from Eric O here ;)
