Hello Paul ,

Code po430 that I committed about yesterday is fixed, Did not replace , didn’t clean or add lacquer thinner to fuel lol . After researching all possible issues, I was ready to replace it, I barrowed a friends scanner so I could use the training I learned here , found that the truck was running just a little on the rich side . So before I did anything else I cleaned throttle plate and MAF then started the truck and the code cleared it’s self instantly, in shock really I drove it while monitoring the fuel trims , STFT check out after about 50 miles or so LTFT went from - 13 ish on both banks to -5 /-7 ish still no check engine light and truck running great. Once again like to thank you sir, I am going to keep a close eye on this one but I feel the issue has been corrected.

Hello sir,

Paul first things first absolutely best decision I have ever made is joining your premium channel I have never been more confident about the cause and diagnosis with the amount of time saving compared to before I began watching your videos .I am also currently dealing with a GM PO 430 code I have when through the material you have on the subject and I have also researched possible causes with nothing that stands out . Seeing how there’s not much information about the causes for cat failure and it is one of our companies field service trucks and I love a challenge figure I will take a stab at it . Conditions that I know , 2012 Chevy 3500 4x4 we bought it used with 82,000 miles in November, Came from Billings , Montana . We are located in Williston , ND . Currently 87,000 ( mileage estimate not exact numbers) when code activated temps changed from -20 averages to 30 degrees F . We generally use 87 octane fuel and add a 16oz can of sea foam at each oil change at monthly intervals during winter months truck idling most of the day and parked inside at night . Since this is the first time I have delt with this code and there’s no other codes, engine is solid runs and pulls great . Waiting on my scanner to come in the ol snap on pro link quit me lol dang cold weather so I will update ya as I learn more. If you have any suggestions or ideas I would definitely like to hear them ! Sorry about the length of comment it is the short version of what I would like to write ! Snap On needs to develop a Danner Scan/Scope LOL ! Anyway sir again thank you for taking time to share your knowledge, A tool all mechanics should have in there box is your book and join premium.

I am a self employed mobile diagnostic mechanic and ecu reflash / programmer. I did an apprenticeship in the UK ?? and left with a distinction. I was a patrol with the RAC and have been self employed for over 15 yrs. I believe in education and personal improvement to be the best I can for my customers. I have been watching premium for 3 months now and can honestly say I have learned more there than a 5 yr apprenticeship and the style of classroom with live car fault finding really helps to demonstrate as well as give the background theory in a clear way. I’m here to stay keep up the great work and I love the ebook too study at my pace perfect. Thanks Paul and Caleb the camera guy.

Hello Paul,

I have been watching your YouTube channel for a couple of months and have learned a lot , you explain electrical systems better than any that I have ever seen look forward to learning a great deal more . I work mainly with natural gas converted Diesel engines , have been a mechanic for last 20 years deal with a wide range of equipment semi truck to duel fuel and natural gas generators.Have never been very good with electronics . I would also like to say that the only thing that I don’t like about the ebook is that I can not move it to my iBooks where I keep all my diagnostic book is it possible to get a refund on it if not I understand , that being said I will be purchasing the paperback version. Thank you for your time and instruction looking forward to expanding my knowledge with the premium channel !

REPLY FROM SCANNERDANNER:
Thanks so much Toby! As you can see this feedback page does not offer replies to comments. I have no problem at all for a refund of the eBook and or an exchange with the cost going toward the paper book. Email me at support@scannerdanner.com and I can handle that for you personally. Thanks again!

Thank you very much Paul. Keep up the great course work. Your efforts have become the spearhead of our industry, your unorthodox approach to diagnosis has proven itself many times over. Your content is leading edge/ fantastic.
