    The hazard warning lights only flash when the theft deterrent system is armed and the engine will not start. To restore the system ,turn the ignition key to the lock position then to the on position,now press the lock or unlock door button on the driver's door,then turn on the ignition, the car should start.

    Wow… flat rate tech says he recommends not to buy because the engine sounds like it has 200k miles on it. What you are hearing is the sound of direct injectors. Get a clue! I hope people don’t take your “advice” seriously. There’s nothing wrong with that engine. It’s not even broken in.

  • @gdc5ind

    I bet that customers truck has fuel in the oil because of a leaking fuel pump. I would bet that fuel in oil would reduce viscosity dramatically and cause internal engine damage because the customer continued to drive it because he was told you "fixed" it . Clearing codes without actually determining what caused the code some people would say makes you a scam artist or a terrible mechanic.

    So I have a 2003 honda crv 2.4. Installed an aftermarket stereo the car worked fine and started fine for the first day parked it from 10pm till 6am the next morning still started first crank parked it again for 4 hrs tried to start it again and only got one click by the starter but didnt start. Tried a brand new battery didnt work did the same one click. I have a new alternator also tried boosting with two different cars and a charge pack all the same click. Stereo works fine same with lights. Tried putting the factory system back in and still the same thing. Tried snacking the starter with no difference. People are telling me the key might have deprogrammed. Could the anti theft device the immobilizer be stopping it from starting or is it actually the starter. The starter never had a problem always started first crank

    this was very helpful thank you! i bought the smoke tester, it's great. found a tiny leak where the intake boot clamps to the throttle, but no change after that was tightened. did a water spray all over the intake manifold gaskets and no steam out of the exhaust. smoke tested the exhaust as well and nothing. my long term fuel trim is around 18% on both banks at low load or idle and drops to around 10% under medium throttle. i did notice my intake air temp was considerably off from actual air temperatures and very slow to respond to changes ( from sitting in a parking lot, hot start on a hot day, to diving down the highway at 55, it changed very slowly and never read the right temp, was always high by about 5-10%) new maf on the way, i think mine is original, 20yrs old, 264k on it. cleaning it didn't have any impact.

    Weird thing never heard a engine stall because of a oil thing 🤦‍♂️ . Question , so if the car stalls because of a oil thing do some parts stop functioning and causes the car to stall or ? 🤷‍♂️ If so what parts ?.

    • @FlatRateMechanic
      @FlatRateMechanic 11 днів тому

      Great question. It is indeed unusual for an engine to stall due to an oil issue. On this engine oil pressure is used to activate the variable valve timing solenoid. I would say this is the root cause.

    I just replaced both knock sensors 5.3 L with new wiring harness. Sealed both sensor boots as directed. All a/c delco parts. Cleared codes. Drove until all readiness codes were complete, same codes as before. SEL is on. Connector is in place correctly and now wonder why the low voltage code is back. Could the PCM have issues or wiring issue between sensors and PCM?

    This is happening on my 2011 Honda Accord, but the "D" blinked for a while like a couple weeks back, then stopped, then started again but isn't blinking now. I made an appointment but am hearing that it's possible that if it's not blinking the code won't be stored, so I'm thinking of temporarily cancelling. The code tool listed isn't available on Amazon currently, would you know if this MOTOPOWER MP69033 Car OBD2 Scanner Code Reader Engine Fault Scanner CAN Diagnostic Scan Tool for All OBD II Protocol Cars Since 1996, Yellow, would do the job as well? Thank you in advance for any input!
