Reading wiring diagrams starts with an understanding of your fundamentals in what can be shared, and what cannot be shared between sensor circuits. The 5v reference and sensors ground circuits can be our guides to dissecting a wiring diagram!

On ScannerDanner Premium I will bring you right into my classroom at Rosedale Technical College. You will find page for page lectures taken right from my book as well as exclusive classroom type case studies. What is so special about these classroom case studies? I pull live problem vehicles directly into my classroom and we troubleshoot them in real time, using and applying the theory and testing procedures we learn during the classroom lectures. There is no better on-line training of how to troubleshoot automotive electrical and electronics systems anywhere!

Amazing amazing video thank you so much this will help me immensely with my diags
I need all data link sir
Please do more videos like this of dissecting wiring diagrams they help out so much!
What about if you place one lead of multimeter on battery + and other one on ground on sensor will that not show a voltage drop bettwen two different points on that circuit?
On Scanner Danner premium, when you click on one of the chapters, is it showing me the latest video first? (at the top). Or not necessarily.
Classic SD!
A damaged harness (rub through?) causing an internal harness short between the 5V reference and a 12v conductor could also do it but would require the ground be opened by the damaged harness as well. An extreme longshot, but I've seen a few cases that defy the odds through the years.
Thanks for your great content!
Thanks Paul for another class
This is great! I hope to one day be at your level of knowledge!
Doing a great job of explaining. You have a gift in how you make your students and public understand your methods. Very good work.
Thank you again Danner you make it look easy takes a lot of practice
Неожиданно и интересно!
