    295: 2017 Buick Lacrosse Parasitic Draw
    Apr 6 2025

    Per request, I'm sharing a case study this week on the show. A 2017 Buick Lacrosse that sometimes will die overnight, but other times does not. We brought this one to our shop to set up for intermittent parasitic draw testing. I'll share my process 7 approach for this type of issue along with some pitfalls to avoid with modern GM wiring schematics.

Very informative and helpful

Excellent general coverage and useful tips regarding automotive issues for technicians. Helps to clarify and expand some ASE related information if you are studying for the exam.

Awesome Interview

Awesome Interview, it's really interesting to get your guy's perspective on the content taught in your own curriculums. I myself am just starting my first year towards an associates degree in Automotive Technology at Columbus State Community in Ohio and I'm really looking forward to the program. They go over a little bit of everything mechanically speaking but I'm really loving the electrical courses, they have three levels and even have a couple of courses on alternative energy vehicles and hybrids and I think it would be great if every tech was able to get into those lines of study as well.
I'm really liking these interviews, keep them coming!

Great Information and Great Interviews

This is my favorite podcast, I wish that I could review each episode. Sean always gives great examples and goes through each step in any tech tips that he has or case studies that he has for the week. The interviews are always interesting, he sets them up well and I think it's great to get different perspectives on these topics. I love the content on communication networks and his focus on electrical troubleshooting in general, this is definitely an area that many techs struggle with and is something that I think we can all gain to learn something from. I'm looking forward to going through each of these episodes and seeing how much I can learn and apply to my own work!

Super informative

Awesome podcast some really great information and always enjoyed listening. I’m a dealer technician and always looking to improve on my diagnostic skills and I find the podcast allows me to see different viewpoints on the aftermarket vs the dealer .
