engine that thinks it's a 4 cylinder? Something like this happened
here and finding the cause was not easy. See what happened.) * -
Crank Sensor Compound Fault (In whatever profession you have now,
how often have you seen two problems at once. It is possible but
rare and when combined into automotive diagnostics it's a
nightmare.) * - Diagnostic Triple Play (This is a nice story and
exposes how to use 3 different kinds of equipment to solve an
automotive diagnostic issue, the Scanner, the 5-Gas Analyzer and
the Scope. What a learning curve.) * - Diagnostics from another
dimension (This case shows the intricacies of automotive ignition
diagnostics and waveform analysis. It shows that there's always a
quick way to find a specific fault, if you can master the
equipment.) * - Dodge Re-Flashing Identity Crisis (Modern
automotive computers or ECM/PCM are sold with a blank memory base.
It's like a blank cassette tape. The technician then has to go
through the process of reprogramming and configuring the new ECM.
See how it affects the repair and automotive diagnostic process in
this case study story.) * - Puff of the Dragon (What on earth is a
Drogon and how do you use it to fix cars? Well, you do and it's
