Ahmed I really enjoy your content, not really a mechanic but just a car enthusiast شكرا اخوك علي من الكويت 🌷
The mark of intellegence is the ability to explain something simply - thank you for this, Sir.
1. For open circuits check for loose or corroded connections. Power, ground, fuses. Disconnect, check and reconnect all connections. Before changing parts disconnect and reconnect all connections with the power on if possible. Most electrical connections are coated with tin. Tin oxide coating forms to prevent unwanted corrosion. Unplugging and replugging can run off excess corrosion. 2. Short circuit. Pull fuses 1 at a time until the short goes away. Find the list of devices on that fuse. Disconnect 1 at a time until the short goes away. 3. Intermittent problem. With the problem turned tap near the connections with a standard screwdriver handle. The intermittent connection may cycle the device on and off or on or off. 4. Starter: clean battery posts a terminals and the 3 connections on the starter. And starter ground if equipped. Batteries have acid. The starter is under the car. Corrosion. 5. Alternator: worn brushes. PB Electronics Engineering Technician 96
I am a young mechanic, been working for 1 and half year now. No one, not even school, has ever made me understand these basic principles. Until this video, if i had read 12 Volts, i would have said "oh ok there is voltage here, so the circuit is ok". And with this video i understood that it really depends where you are measuring. There should be more people like this amazing mechanic. Perfect video, perfect explanation, really really thank you sir.
Simple English, no jargons. People with limited English can also understand this explanation without any confusions too. Respect for u.
I have extensive experience working on complex electronic equipment including aviation electronics while in the Air Force. The first step in troubleshooting any electronic system, including one in an automobile, is to get good, accurate wiring diagrams and technical documentation. Trying to figure out a complex automotive electrical system without a wiring diagram is like trying to find your way around a strange city without a map. A good set of technical documentation is just as important a tool when you are working on a car's electrical system as a voltmeter or a scanner.
The most entertained I’ve ever been watching a Car Care Nut video was when AMD spoke directly to me. I was sitting here thinking that “yeah, that’s kind of how voltage works, but not really, but should I leave a comment about it?” At that exact moment, AMD, you said, “I know some of you will come up and say it’s not exactly like that, but we’re trying to learn how to fix cars, not become college professors.” I felt that.
Dude I’m an expert Toyota tech and I just found this, I play the video and all I see is Toyotas, SICK video thank you!
This tutorial is FREE GOLD! You just got yourself a huge fan from the UK. What I just learnt I've been searching for the past 2 decades. Thank you!
Dear Car Care Nut, To honestly take the time to explain things so carefully, passionately just goes to show your integrity. It is so refreshing to see a technician/mechanic with such professionalism and wonderful ethics. I love Toyota's just like you, got hooked with my dad's 1987 Toyota Corolla SR5 RWD. May the Lord be with you and keep you!!
Ahmed is very thorough in explaining everything. He has that honest and patience. Thank you to this wonderful mechanic and person.
After 30 plus years of working on cars, I know more about electronics than I ever had. Thank you. I was always so afraid to touch electronics in a car, now I feel I can. Awesome
DIY guy here. I'm only 15 minutes through this 2 part series and 54 years old. I learned more from these 15 minutes on auto electrical than I've learned my whole life already.
This is the PERFECT video to encapsulate auto electrical. I’ve been down numerous rabbit holes. This is bringing me back to the grass above the hole. Metaphorically. lol
I am amazed !! I have been an electrical engineer for 40 years. I never had a better explanation of V A R relation. Teaching it is natural with you. There is an explanation on this, why you are so good. Anyway well done!!
This is what I've always wanted. I've been studying electrical engineering for so long. 3 years in Highschool and almost 5 years in University/Technician. I have so much damn Theoretical knowledge about Maths and Electrical concepts but I know that were you to put me infront of a fault of some kind. I'd have no clue what to do. My ultimate goal is to turn my love of cars and electricity into a business some day and this is a good way of introducing me to diagnostics🔥💙
What a great channel for all Toyota lovers. That white Supra in the background brings me back to the my teenage years when I owned an '87 Turbo - I am now 45 years old. Those were the days. Thank you
This is the most valuable automotive electrical training on YouTube.
As a retired high school automotive instructor I admit this is a difficult subject to teach. You have done a beautiful job! Keep up your great work👍
