Here’s another great case study by Bob in Massachusetts. This time, he was called in to help with a Jeep Grand Cherokee that was experiencing intermittent crank/no start episodes. It also had many of the typical ingredients found in these cases: vehicle was worked on
Well, after two short ones, we’re back to a longish piece, but one that’s really worthwhile. In it, Robert from New York walks the reader through his diagnostic process in sorting out an excessive parasitic drain on a 2014 Cadillac CTS that resulted in a
Here’s an anti-long resource piece for you (fully halting our streak of long to longer resource articles). This one, from Andrew in Utah, is definitely the shortest one we’ve ever referenced. It’s also a good reminder. MOST bus connections (which can very from fiber optic
Breaking our streak of long resource pieces, here’s a quick, but very useful post from Jeff in Arizona. In it, he reminds everyone that disconnection procedures (order of operations) apply even when you’re not using a jump starter or charger. When disconnecting a vehicle battery,

We seem to be on a roll with relatively lengthy case studies these days. But, just like the last one, we think you’ll find this one worth the read. It comes to us from Billy in Florida and involves the usual situation of having made
OK, this is a Kia saga worth reading. We’re going to give it to you straight – this one’s a bit long. In it, Robert from New York tells the tale of a troublesome KIA that had bounced around to several shops without final resolution
It has been awhile since we featured a case study from Bob in Massachusetts. They’re always well organized, interesting and helpful, and this one is no exception. Here, he recounts a 2008 Jeep Wrangler with a “Click/No-Crank” complaint when the vehicle was hot. As he
We’ve touched on this topic once before, but it bears a revisit, we believe. In this case, Michael from Utah recounts the tale of programming a used module on a Nissan Juke. In this case, everything was going along fine until it was time to
