Good Video, but I have a couple of comments. 1) I must be really great having all the tools you need within arms reach. 2) I think you need a camera man because we could not see what your hands were doing for a few shots - glad you commented thru them. The phone call was classic!

All the best bud and I look forward to seeing Tim the car doctor MD in action. 👍

Yes, that generation in N. America is 2006-2010, so he was off by one year. Do you expect him to memorize every little thing about all years of generations of cars in existence?

I just tore it apart and saw this comment. It had a bad solder joint on the negative wire at the end of the battery holder and end cap. I repaired it then proceeded to put back together and broke two more wires in the process of screwing it back together. Ordering some more tiny wire. what a crappy design.
