Automotive Diagnostic Podcast – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Today on the show I share a thought process that I've been adding into my diagnostic decision making. We weigh the value of any test method we perform- How much time/effort/cost does a test require? How much does it tell me/how many things does it eliminate? When faced with a time consuming, difficult, (and often intermittent) diagnostic challenge, should we consider that a part replacement is the cheapest AND most effective test that we could perform? Is this the best value for the customer while at the same time freeing up our time for more productive work???

Today on the show I'll share my experiences with module cloning, both the wins and the losses I've had. The need for USED modules to be programmed in vehicles doesn't seem to be going anywhere, and actually increasing with time, but it's not all rainbows and sunshine. Sometimes you run up against a wall.  I'll cover Flex, Autel, IO terminal, ACDP, VVDI, AR32, & more.

Today on the show I share a case study on a 2013 Cadillac CTS. This vehicle starts and stalls, but the shop has done their best to eliminate the anti theft system as the problem. I'll confirm that, but then figure out what else is causing this issue.
