The old cynic in me say that if the guy who was fixing it wanted to buy it, there's not much wrong with it. My dad told me, never sell your car to the guy who's fixing it, if he doesn't fix it.

@AndyC2_ Год назад

I get Rob’s point of taking it to a specialist, but he’s coming across too panicky about not touching anything at all ! Chris still wanting to have a little play before it gets taken away and wanting to get his head around it This is why Chris knows as much as he does about so much - massive respect Chris 👍🏼👍🏼

@PaulNurse1 Год назад

For those of us who like to diagnose fault codes like Rob and Chris have on the Infinity we need to understand that these sensors are just reporting that they haven't received or sent a handshake. It doesn't mean the sensor/unit has a fault. The remedy for multiple sensor faults is usually an associated localised ecu. For anyone interested in learning how to methodically diagnose a sensor fault, I'd recommend a channel on here called Diagnose Dan. He runs a Dutch repair shop and receives vehicle that other repair shops cannot fix. Incredibly interesting and logical diagnostics.

@danb1478 Год назад

@Titaxxas Год назад

there is a isolation fuse under the rear seat or in the boot, completely safe to take out, which could be the high voltage fuse its throwing up a fault for. i would try that before yous send it off.

@stuartholmes9296 Год назад

Been doing A bit of research out of interest and it looks like you'll need a new HV Battery Junction box because the old Aircon pump will most likely have a short circuit and will have blown either one or both of the 30 amp fuses which then stops one of the start relays from energising . The old pump can be tested with a ohm meter to see if it's shorted. a low ohm reading would indicate a short . Looking forward to seeing follow up video on this one . Why are manufactures putting all components in expensive boxes when replaceable fuses and relays would suffice only reason I can think of is greed. Best of luck lads and I'll be sticking to my Gas guzzler for as long as possible.

@zipazzz Год назад

I just want everyone to start understanding there is nothing magical with these hybrid or electirc cars. I drive an 8 year old tesla and you know what, all the DIY things i used to do on my other cars is no different on this car. Comes with same suspension components, same brakes, same steering and tyres. Yes drive unit is different. As for hybrids, I would start with checking the high voltage fuse. Check that and diosconnect it. Then check thge hybrid control unit. If everything is actually plugged in (plugged in with a click, try pulling on the connector). If everything is plughged in then reconnect the main fuse check again and only then send it to chris or any other more specialised guy. No need to be afraid of these thiungs, just dont tounch non isolated vires if you see those. Remember that these cars are meant to be driven in the rain, just like any other car

@Andy-qo6rq Год назад

Hi Rob and Chris my mate had one of these it was showing loads of faults. It turned out to be that A loose or corroded connector between the ECM (engine control module) and the TCM (transmission controller module) can cause erroneous data signals to be sent to these components. This can cause them to malfunction and produce abnormal symptoms in the vehicle. They cleaned it up and all faults disappeared. It was just covered in green corrosion from a lose connection. My mate fixed it and then sold it on. Great video as always. 👍👍

@jeffoops9458 Год назад

My mate fixed it and then sold it on. 🤣🤣🤣

@Dalbayob69 Год назад

I’m putting my money on the inverter. Porsche hybrids are the same. AC stops working, dealer says you need new inverter at a cost of £6k and all it is is a fuse inside inverter that costs £3.50. But dealerships won’t open up inverters, too lazy to undo about 12 bolts. Independent garages do it.

@jaysimpson6857 Год назад

I think you’re right, those inverters can be reasonably priced too, especially if you buy used.

@nerotaylor5834 Год назад

Something I was told of when I did some basic level EV and HV System Training was that on some cars the Service Plugs can have a tenancy to somehow be 'knocked' or 'nudged' out of their correct secured position. It is worth locating the Service Plug and just visually checking whether it is correctly fitted and/or secured in it's holder correctly. If you feel it s not then get someone who is Certified to check it themselves and re-connect it. On my EV and HV System Training I was told by an ex AA Breakdown Technician who instructs the EV Training that the earlier Toyota Prius was notorious for this when they were new as the Service Plug is/was located in a place in the boot that was prone to being 'nudged' or 'knocked' out of place and thus causing exactly the same problem you two are experiencing.

@dox009 Год назад

When I first subscribed, Rob didn’t even want to be on camera, the way this channel is evolving it’s absolutely going to fly, good on you chaps.

@chrisdriver9907 Год назад

I’m a London cabby my Taxi has a similar system. It is not uncommon for the HV fuse warning come on the dashboard. In my experience, this comes on when driving in pure EV mode with the heater on at slow speed the system seems to be overwhelmed by the drive and heater. In my opinion (based on absolutely nothing), the car is being driven during the winter on lots of short trips with the heater on and the battery has just become completely depleted. I would look at quite simply trying to get some charge into the EV battery

@liamscanlan4578 Год назад

Two gentlemen working together in harmony, complementing one another, is always what I enjoy about your videos. Like you both I am a car lover, but it is how you work together seamlessly, is just wonderful. From Brisbane Australia.

@kierondraper1799 Год назад

Yes it’s got high voltage but it can be isolated. Maybe it’s time for you both to go on a course to learn some new skills 😊

@jamiebarber4675 Год назад

You were correct in assuming that the AC compressor runs off the HV system. In changing the AC compressor, I assume the installer has somehow shorted the feed to the compressor, as it is a permanent live to the unit. This would have intern popped the main battery fuse, located in the centre of the battery (being the rear seats, I believe the seat back comes out to expose it, potentially a small part of the boot load area) the recommended PPE for change a HV fuse is insulated gloves and boots, you should be okay as long as you're sensible, but changing that will allow the main engine system to operate again as it's a fail safe to prevent the battery exploding with the engine running (as that automatically starts charging it) Let me know when you've done it and I'll claim my complimentary pint 😜

@jamiebarber4675 Год назад

I'd also potentially chack the HV relays. If the polarity was reversed upon ac pump install, it would have melted the relay first before the fuse popped instead of the normal way of the fuse being first to take the brunt

@adamap2796 Год назад

Sounds like the garage owner had designs on that motor. Makes you wonder that they’re isn’t a lot wrong with it. Keep a close look out for stuff unplugged 🙄 maybe HV fuse ?

@mtickner Год назад

Totally. My first thought too.

@peter-e2q Год назад

Rob, while you're worrying about how long you're spending on the fault analyser, I suspect most of your viewers - me included - are enjoying trying to figure out where the fault may lie. So don't worry too much about the interesting process of fault finding. Always good when you & Chris discuss possibilities.

A good buy you two. My thoughts are that the garage you collected this car from knows what the fault is and was trying to buy the car to make a killing, hence the slight hostillity. I bet you two will OK out of this project

@WillMulder Год назад

Renault EV tech here, I suspect all those faults saying the same thing (engine/hybrid electric system) is due to your diagnostic tool not having all the information. If it's anything like the cars I work on, you really need a Nissan diagnostic tool because that will tell you which fault to look at first (as Chris said one fault can cause several systems to give red herring fault codes) and also provide guided diagnostic procedures. You're right though, some EV's use the air con to cool the battery, although that doesn't necessarily prevent starting.

@johndavies6246 Год назад

There are some problems that just don't seem to be logical or rational without a degree in computers. My old B class ( 08 ) went into 'limp home mode' intermittently. Checked on the internet ( owners forum ) and the options were ABS sensors or brake light switch. Swapped in a new brake light switch and it cleared the fault. Who'd have thought that off the bat??? There's likely an owners forum for these Infiniti's, might be worth a check out!! Great to see you branching out, but remember to be very careful. Best of luck sorting it out, it's looking tricky.👍👍

@terrealcee Год назад

Yep. Had an abs issues, with steering erro, couldn't read fuel, no speedo readout, engine code, and no ac working, all because I had 2 failed speed sensors. Mechanic told me I need a new brake computer but searched forums, change one, then a second speed sensor and all clear des gone car runs fine. They need to use deductive reasoning to solve this.

@ched999uk Год назад

Would it be worth at least 1 of you getting some training on the Electric side of cars? As time goes on you will get more of them, plus if you can work on them you might find there are some bargains as not many people can work on them? Good luck and it will be interesting to see where you end up with this one.

@stephenricketts7764 Год назад

Interesting stuff Gents, I agree with Chris in that it can be a sort of chain of events but not the obvious. All I can say is one of my friends has a Toyota hybrid. It starts with the electric motor and cruises up to about 20 MPH before the engine cuts in then the engine will cut below a certain speed. I will just add that the electric motor assists with the braking and in doing so charges the hybrid batteries. That's probably no help whatsoever but that is all I can give you! Good luck Rob and Chris this could be a real adventure. 👍👍

@leejordanful Год назад

Very interesting as this is the future. Can’t wait to hear what Josh says. Hopefully it is a quick fix as that is a lovely car.

@HowardLeVert Год назад

I'm going to follow this with great interest - I can see this being a new learning experience for you both. Get yourself on some hybrid courses! However... isn't 'HVAC' just 'Heating/Ventilation/Air Conditioning' or is it related to the DC/AC inverter that drives the motor?

@robthomas7232 Год назад

Think Chris needs to get himself on a HV course sooner rather than later. I don't agree about staying in your lane but agree its sometimes best to ship stuff out to those with the right diag tech, skills and who might do this everyday. By this I mean with the ICE cars you fix at least you are able to do the diag and then decide whether to do it yourself or ship it out to someone more specialist, i.e. engine rebuilds, air bag module resets, key programming. With the uptake of EV's in the coming years there will be a lot coming onto the 2nd hand market with faults that lots of garages won't touch and could be easy money to be made with the right knowledge and skills.

@Mr.Fedora007 Год назад

Hi Guys. I’m a Physicist and motor nut. We have a BMW i3 REX. We drove to Italy and had a 12V battery failure. Loads of people quite rightly are afraid of the high Voltage system. The Voltage is 400 or 800V d.c. which is lethal if you are exposed to a uncovered connection. These cars are built so that can never happen. The worst that can happen is a HV that overloads amd then shares its +ve connection with the chassis. You’d know if this had happened as the car would be ready to self destruct. I disconnected the HV system before I actually changed the 12V battery which is similar in size to Golf cart buggies. Only 20Ah which is a fraction of a normal car battery which would have at least 200Ah. For reference it,s the current that kills. Current is the amount of charge (electrons) flowing per unit if time. Think of a stream of water or river and the water molecules are electrons. You can visualise the rest of the story. The one thing I learnt about changing the 12V battery was (after a ‘jump start’ effectively a parallel 14.2V kick to get the systems up again) was that just like old radios that if they can’t see a potential difference often lower than 12V they reset and you need the code. Well for a BMW i3 if you disconnect the 12V battery it needs a reset from BMW. I tricked the car into believing that the old battery never left the car a made a parallel connection with a 12V 35Ah battery and drove the car with two 12V batteries back to the UK 1200 miles. Today I kept the slave battery connected whilst I removed the old battery 🪫 and put the new battery 🔋 in place. Was a fath but I did it. Put it all back together and reconnected the HV system and all system are go. I believe that if the car lost the LV battery I would be in for a bill from BMW. I heard they charge £90 to disconnect and reconnect the HV. Took me 25 scolds to do that. In conclusion, it just maybe the 12V has dropped so low the car is not having it and needs recoding in the department. Your guy will know. Let me I’m curious. Great channel by the way. I recorded what I did to the BMW and I’ll launch it for peeps to watch. Ciao ciao. Jules

@whatsdavedone104 Год назад

HVAC isn't high voltage air conditioning.....its heating, ventilation and air conditioning

@connorladelldzz6754 Год назад

Just a thought to look at, should be a high voltage fuse (service plug) on the EV battery itself. I doubt the previous garage checked this as a bit of a job to check it out. Worth a look!

@astonman4 Год назад

I thought that HVAC stood for 'heating, ventilation and air conditioning'?

@terrealcee Год назад

The high voltage fuse is normally near the HV battery. Also check the HV service plug, it also has a fuse in it. The HV battery is what starts the car so it won't start if it isn't working no matter if you have 12v supply. On the other hand, a bad 12v supply can affect the HV battery or other components which will revert to fault the car. all the best.

@mondodaftasabrush Год назад

Its got to be a quick cheap fix if the garage owner wanted to buy it ... I remember a Stealer whom bought a Mitsubishi Evo 7 and the list of fault codes gave the owner the creeps and hence due to keeping mobile part exchanged it at a very low price for a new car and they put a new battery on it and cleared the codes and they where laughing about it and stole it from the owner Just updated my Autel scanner and its a far better tool than it was ... keep your diagnostic tools updated makes them talk to ECU far better

@Snowy-96 Год назад

Nice looking car hope you can get to bottom of it. Yes you are correct in not messing with orange cables but there is a HVIL or High Voltage Inter Lock system in the low voltage side which would open the EV contactors if you did remove an orange cable without doing the safety power down of the car first, like you say your not trained on this so best to get a specialist involved. 👍👍 HVAC system does play a part in the EV system as it uses that to cool EV battery. Airbag system also involved in EV system, if it see a crash signal it will open EV contactors. You are seeing a EV system fuse fault, this would be inside the EV battery I guess and if that fuse has blown then what blew it? Be interesting follow up on this to see what root cause is 🙂 Any loose change in there Chris 🤣

@catxls1835 Год назад

Although these cars have the big RUN battery, they still have an ancillary to start the engine and to power the electronics for normal running just like a conventional car. However, the ancillary battery also runs the computer management system of the engine and the electric RUN motors and could be the problem. Great video as always Guys!

Lads I’ve just sold my 2017 Mercedes c350e plug in hybrid, cars stopped last month, plugged in to diagnostics and lit up like a Christmas tree. PTC unit for battery bank was gone which stopped the car charging properly. ABS, lights regenerative braking, radio etc are all linked to battery pack which is why so many faults highlighted. Cost €3749 to fix and car driving perfect now with new owner, I hadn’t the heart or wallet to hold on to it, cheers Colin.👍

My daughter has one of these cars and it is brilliant apart from when she had a wheel bearing, which contains the wheel speed sensor replaced. the replacement was a pattern part which was then replaced with an original part and all faults were cured so it pays to use oem parts on these cars.

Interesting motor but very complex as you've seen. Hybrids and EVs are becoming the norm so I'm surprised it's taken this long for one to be on the channel but I'm sure Josh will give it a thorough going over and see if it's viable for you but we'll be looking forward to the news on this one I'd imagine 🙂

I would certainly have that old unit in the boot tested lads. Will NOT be too shocked if it came back 100% fine. I suspect they know the car now has a simple error with a quick fix. Has the main HV fuse been pulled / blown or the main disconnect ?. Is it possible they are aware of the simple fix, then the new part could even be removed from the car, refit the old unit ( if not defective ) and return it for a refund ????.

Hello Rob and Chris, this will be an interesting project. Thank you for taking the time to upload another video. Ged.

HVAC system is just your “heating,ventilation,aircon” Nothing to do with the hybrid side of the car. Best of luck!

Bloody hell I know something about cars that Chris don't! HVAC is Heating Ventilation and Air Con. Interesting video...makes me less inclined to get involved with these modern setups.
