Automotive Diagnostic Podcast

In this episode I describe 2 case studies where technical service bulletins really made my life easy. The first case study, a 2013 Buick Lacrosse Hybrid that isn't charging the 12 volt battery. The second, a 2007 Chevrolet Silverado with a cylinder 7 misfire.

This week on the show I want to share my thoughts on what it really takes to make a diagnostic look easy. At face value it may look like it takes no effort for an expert to breeze through an complex problem, in reality there are countless hours and enormous amounts of effort that aren't visible in the moment.
