    Powered Ratchets

    Why do powered ratchets have a trigger without protective bumper to prevent unintended triggering? Every time I’ve used one, there was at least one unintentional activation due to proximity to an obstruction. It took me a while to find a long neck one with a bumper for at work use. The item...

    What did you do to your car today?

    Swapped the blower resistor (transistor) module out. Few dropped screws, tools and F-Bombs and part contortion to get it done.

    Smoke From Dash

    FIXED, my bad, a wire tap I put on the brake BOO switch wire apparently reduced the gauge of the factory wire when pinched and decided to get warm and melt the tap. Time to pull out the soldering iron and correct this and other higher current taps I put in for remote start.

    Smoke From Dash

    While driving home today, had a slight plume of smoke rising at defrost vent just left of center. Gonna have to pull front console out. I did have a mouse nest in the glove box a few years ago, hope they didn't chew wires. I didn't see wires chewed around the glove box originally. If anyone else...

    blow motor fan only goes on high

    I have a theory on why these burn out, but need to ask a question. Do you use Max AC with fan set to less than HI? I suspect the transistor is not getting cool outside air across it, per hvac diagrams, thus it is overheating. When normal AC is selected, outside air is flowing across the transistor.

    The saga continues...The new Motorcraft battery died also. Something I didn't think of looking for was parasitic drain. That is the culprit! The current drain is 180mA. I eliminated the starter and alternator as root cause. Disconnected the BJB (Battery Junction Box) it went to zero. So my...

    18 Volts from Alternator

    Well, since the battery was completely shot, I put a 850CCA Motorcraft battery in, things are working fine with the Delco 130A left in the car. Everything in my electronics background says the Regulator too!:confused: The alternator voltage has been maintaining normally now. I had a...

    18 Volts from Alternator

    Leaving work today, started the car, had no dashlights, plenty of warning lights. Looked at voltage gauge and metered the battery, the alternator was outputting 18V. Decided to risk the 42min drive home. Made it home, the battery was not happy, was spiting fluid and slight vapors exiting it...
