was that torque setting one or two clicks of the elbow have to make sure you get the correct number of clicks
"Good enough for the girls I run with"…sounds like someone's been listening to AvE. LOL
Nice diagnosis & video as usual. Gotta love wrong parts to slow you down.
I swear I'm gonna be the best DIY mechanic thanks to Eric o lol
Ok EricO, thing is I am soon to move to BC Canada, in UK right now, I am 63 yrs old and retiring, what you have shown here is how honest and trustworthy you are, I have learned lots about North American vehicles from watching your vids, (I did 20 yrs as a mechanic here in UK when younger) if I were closer when I moved to BC I would come to you for all my vehicle needs, which made me think, your next step could be featuring customers who travel just to get you to fix their vehicle, as I think that will be pretty common soon, in fact maybe buy yourself an old Motel to put them all up, I would happily be one of those customers, either way, another great logical fix top work, Dave
I don't need stinkin notifications I'm already addicted to this show.
i bought the autel scanner for diy it seems to be pretty good
I remember the early 80s when they scared you to never use a test light for many years I thought that was the real deal.
Great as always Eric.
Bosch replacement sensors (not that I would use a Bosch O2 sensor on any Japanese car) solve the short/long cable problem by only selling ones with long cables and they include a zip tie !
I am anxious for you review ! Your old one was a CP9580. That is a CP9690. The only down side to that model is the current software only handles ABS and SRS up through 2013. It would be nice if it handled tire pressure monitors. 4 years is a long time without updating the software.
Actron is now owned by Bosch and that model looks identical to the Bosch OBD 1350. I also think Mac resells the same one.
Bosch also owns OTC now.
Thank you Eric for another great video. I have the Actron CP9580 which I bought in 2010. It is good basic DIY code scanner but only accesses limited PIDs but I am happy with it.
God bless you Eric O.
Paul
Eric O, great vid!! I've been on the market for new DIY scan tool, boom. you were doing it. Holy smokes, you been reading my mind, lol!! I missed couple videos due to lack of notifications. but this one did notify on my phone! yay. I finally caught up! I'll wait for your reviews first before I'll buy. Thanks, later, my friend!
i ordered a scanner this morning // can you all tell me if its good or not for a DIYER
MaxiScan MS509 KW808 OBD2 OBDII EOBD Scanner Car Code Reader Tester Diagnostic
great video ERIC O
Actron OBD2 tool use video would help. Thanks
Parts are ALWAYS wrong today! What is happening out there??? Seems like a daily occurrence now. 🙁
We need some QC!!
Nice job Eric or the price every DIY:er should have one
Looks like you are getting the hang of the Vantage pro.
I haven't had the chance to work with the actron scan tool, but the Autel MD802 is a GREAT DYI scan tool. it gives you make specific codes, ABS/SRS Transmission, etc.. totally worth the 200 bucks it goes for.
hmmm werè geting spoiled, a smar ewer`y day.. as allways Eric great video…
Solder, splice & heat shrink 4 wires from old to new shorter sensor, ship it?
A good entry level scanner i used is the Autel AL619 check engine, airbag and abs for about 120 on Amazon
Nothing is more frustrating than getting the wrong OE part from the dealer. Getting the wrong part sent is something i'd expect from Advance but you pay more from a dealer for what should be the right part the first time.
I know, my expectations are way too high 🙂
I might be Denso, but something tells me the OEM sensor is the exact same part, it just costs more at the dealer.
What an excellent review of how to do things properly and efficiently. Good diagnostics don't have to be slow, and you don't need a lot of fancy tools.
Regarding the antiseize, most of the O2 sensors I've put on come with their own little packet or have it on already. Maybe it's becoming an urban myth, but I've read a few times that the wrong antiseize can mess up the O2 sensor, presumably by mucking up the sensor end in some way. Does anybody know more about how that happens? I suppose when it gets really hot, you could change the local oxygen concentration around the outside of the sensor, changing readings. Or, maybe when really hot the wrong antiseize could drip down onto the end of the sensor, covering the end that needs to sample the exhaust gas.
Eric O what's up with the civic????
