256: Prove Yourself Wrong May 18, 2024

Show notes

On this week's episode I'm sharing a mindset that I like to take when I believe I've found the the problem during a diagnosis. This has helped me have a better accuracy rate and identify multiple problems. After I've gotten to the part that seems to be the issue, I like to prove myself wrong... But shouldn't I be proving myself my right?? Listen to find out where I'm going with this and how to help get to the accurate solution more often.

All I seem to be getting lately is parasitic draw diagnostics, This 2014 Cadillac CTS is no exception. The BCM has already been replaced with no change in the draw. The process in this vehicle was tedious to get to the source, but I share my process and mindset while getting to the source.
