      A failed speed sensor caused my speedometer to register zero, a minor problem, but the same speed sensor was connected to the automatic transmission. When the transmission stopped receiving speed information, it shifted into Limp Home Mode and refused to shift out of 2nd Gear manually.
      A repeatedly bad camshaft sensor would result in the engine refusing to go above 2300 RPM. When the engine hit 2300 RPM, it would go into a stall and the engine sounded like it was knocking.
      A repeatedly bad crankshaft sensor caused the car to stall while starting and also while driving at slow speeds.
      A bad oxygen sensor necessitated a repair to pass a government emissions test.
      Some sort of a bad fuel sensor was causing the engine to stall occasionally while waiting at a stop.
      Bad tire pressure monitoring sensors caused a warning to appear on the dashboard, which to fix requires replacing all of the sensors inside the wheels at a cost of more than $400.

      Cars seemed to work fine before all of these sensors and "safety" schemes, and they were much easier and cheaper to fix.

      I have a 2018 Ram 1500 Express with the 5.7 hemi. When I bought the truck it had 12,664 miles on it. It now just turned 40,000.
      I've done my oil changes tire rotation and alignment. I have used royal purple injection cleaners changed air filters and normal maintenance.
      Why did my gas mileage go from 18.5 to 20 mpg. Down to 15.5 to 16.5?
      I drive the same 40 miles round trip every day to and from work. Just don't get it. No lights, warnings or anything else shown up to say something it wrong.

      So I bought a 2001 2,7i Sonata, at the time I didn’t know about the throttle sensor, and the engine, just sent the revs up to 2500rpm from startup.
      Not the best Way to start the morning drive.
      Luckily the dealer was very nice and the part was cheap, tried to install it myself, but it was stuck on pretty good, but the mechic at the dealer spent 10-20 min helping and Got me a new screw, free of charge.
      So I ended up driving it about 50000miles, trouble free after that, Theo I parked it for 12 months, and sold it.
      Still miss it.
      But all that “panic” do to such a small part…😱😱😂😂

      Hey Scotty, awesome video!
      I thought your technical explanations were fantastic!
      It was easily understood, very comprehensive, and not too technical so everyone can understand.
      I'm a professional embedded systems engineer and work on designing systems with many sensors and programming processors similar to the ones you mentioned. Loved the video!

      When you pointed to O2 threads figured you meant using the old anti fowl plug extender. I've read you can put one in the O2 bung or nut then put the O2 sensor in that to keep it out of the full exhaust stream. It's old school but probably works. I know you've heard or done that before, I'm as old school as you are my friend !!!

      I used to have a JKU that was eating wheel speed sensors. In 2017 I bought a JKU & lifted it as you do. About 4 months later, the traction control light came on & I lost cruise control driving from LA to Bakersfield. My OBD2 said it was a wheel speed sensor, so I replaced it. 2 weeks later, the sensor went out again, so I cleaned it & greased the connections. It was fine for about a month till it happened again. After chasing the problem, I found it was a bad wire all the way up the line. I replaced the sensor & the wireing harness to it.
      I also had a 98 Dodge Dakota that had the transmission input & output sensor go bad when the crank shaft sensor died at the same time. I ignored it because I was broke & the whole thing sized up.
