In this video I bring you along as I have a look at a Dodge Nitro that came in with a customer complaint of “my turn signals don’t work when my headlights are on.” Ummm ok… sounds like your typical bad ground to me. Let’s have a look see. -Enjoy!

If you don't piss off someone you're doing it wrong!
You are spot-on with the bad grounds on Dodges. I was applying Fluid Film under my '14 Ram yesterday and discovered 2 broken body to chassis ground straps. Thankfully I had no electrical issues yet, but your experience gave me the heads-up to look for that issue. Thanks for sharing what you are good at with the rest of us!
No worries about the ending. I'd much rather my mechanic be a mechanic first and a videographer second.
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust you listen real close and you can hear a ground on a Chrysler rust.

The customer deserves 10% off for having an" I did that' sticker in his console. 😁
👍👍. Love seeing the bows in the background. The most rewarding way to take game. And I just hate it when I have electrical problems on my Chev 2500. Like now- the radio wonts turn off when I kill the engine and open the door. Used to.
Ground wires are the biggest killer of any electrical system. 👍👍🙂🇨🇦
