verry coincidental that the exact wiring that you need for the car to start and run had been severed , if it wasnt hidden away under the dash as far as it was with no way to get to it from under the dash i wouldve suspected an unscrupulous mecanic had cut them sabotaging the car to be able to buy it from the previous owner verry cheaply (you may laugh but i had it happen that a mecanic pulled the wiring of the wipermotor making it fail the vehicle safety inspection and trying to convince me that the car was not worth the repair , i knew the wipers didnt had problems before i whent there , so while he was trying to distract me / hold me from checking the car myself , i ignored him and looked at the wiring and found the loosened plug tucked under some other wiring , the mecanic wasnt happy about me calling him out in public as a fraud , never whent to that garage again )
looks like you gotten a verry nice car for verry little money
More boost is gonna be so interesting!
I can never find your links to in this case the scan tool .
power steering data can be interesting! you can learn about alignment, dynamic events, combine it with IMU data. heck you can detect the camber of the road and crosswinds in it (on some cars).
So, the electric wizardry just came back to life? that's pretty nice.
I was sure that the hybrid battery was dead and deactivated by the computer.
I'd like to see you rehabilitate the hybrid system battery, if there is a reasonable path to doing so. Hell, I'd like it even more if there is an unreasonable path to doing so!
How did you get a capture card to work on the scanner tool?
As a rodent attorney, I strongly object to the defamatory statements made in this video. Any evidence is purely circumstantial. My client is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
so you sold out
Nice scanner. Only $456 Canadian! Throw in taxes and it costs as much as my insight did, lol!
Now go drain that hybrid pack down to nothing and grid charge it a couple of times and you'll be good to go.
Anyone have any good tricks for keeping rodents out of your stuff? Seems to be a problem for me every winter and I can't poison due to outdoor pets. I'd get a barn cat if I had a barn but everything's out and exposed.
Marsupials sure do love chewing wires!
Now you have a real daily driver for the grocery store or other things. Have a blessed week.
Jimbo is just an ocean of regular automotive knowledge. Also as always must comment on how entertaining you can make fixing 2 hidden wires not chewed on by cows
Good morning from Michigan! I really enjoyed the content today, checking and fixing a car that is not common and that is still available was interesting. Keep the videos coming!
Brawndo brand electrical insulation has the electrolytes that rats crave.
Rodent damage ? someone installed a kill switch and then yanked it out
Yet more validation of how well engineered Honda product is.
Yea that’s the funny thing about Nickel Metal Hydride battery cells. They can go empty and be recharged and still work pretty well.
I’ve messed with one of these at work Put high flow filter on it and no catalytic converter and fooled the sensors, much more power and better fuel economy
very affordable price is mechanical code for first born child
We love you Jimbo!
Good job finding those wires
