Customer overnighted a brand-new Ford Motorcraft starter to get his F550 Powerstroke Wrecker back on the road. Let’s bench-test and install the new starter motor on the truck, and then diagnose why some of the auxilliary lights don’t work.

I’m afraid we reached the end of the rope with this now PERMANENTLY beached whale Land Rover. It hasn’t cranked in days, and the TCU seems to be completely DEAD! No other options…it has to go back to the Land Rover Dealer, which is 2 hours from here! Will this Fancy Euro ever run again? […]
Buckle up…Today we have another fancy Euro SUV to diagnose… A clean 2018 Land Rover Discovery with only 22k miles! Customer said that most of the time the car REFUSES TO CRANK. Also the radio SPEAKERS stopped working when this problem started early this year. Local Dealer and Indy shop in Missouri couldn’t figure it […]

Hopefully this will give you some direction, and keep your vintage Saturn rolling […]
