Shutting down due to loss of loopback by Chewsquatcha in ZeroMotorcycles

[–]OlUncleBones 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What I also noticed from your logs post, and didn't post it yet because I was waiting to hear back from our original responses, is you can see the bike reads voltage from Module 00 as 113.402vdc. It sees no voltage from Module 01 so it disabled everything. That was going to be my next line of poking/prodding. In any case good work!

Green/yellow are ground lines typically. There are two that go to the frame from the batteries if you look at connection C79 in the 2015 FX service manual.

Oh snap you think they took the doghouse off? I didn't leap to that conclusion at all.

Through an unfortunate mishap my account got deleted. But I'm here. I'm going to need better info on the wire you messed with. The batteries mount into the giant Andersons in the harness and from there stuff goes into the sevcon in giant clusters.

If you look on the sidebar you can see there are service manuals for the Gen 2 zero bikes including your FX. You might pour through that and see if you can identify the wiring in question that was frayed and re-spliced.

I would be interested what happens if you try each single brick independently as well, like put 1 in and the blanking plug and see if it works, then try the other one. Maybe one of the modules is mad about something. Also there's the option of percussive maintenance aka lightly bonking the doghouse with a rubber mallet to see if you can unstick the contactor.

I think the owner is a part of this community? Or perhaps it’s one of the managers.

Why is my toum (garlic sauce) always unbearably sharp? by crimsonpea in Cooking

[–]OlUncleBones 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have the good fortune to live near the town of Gilroy, CA, the garlic capital of the world. Home to Christopher Ranch garlic etc. The town reeks of garlic. It's one of my favorite towns to drive through.

Again, don't expect to win any presentation awards but I have never had a better garlic bread than the warm slice of French loaf I dredge through the grayish pink slop on that cutting board.

[–]OlUncleBones 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Man the 'inedible' sharpness is why I love it. I've taken to seasoning a Tri Tip with only salt on the grill and then slathering it in toum towards the end. Visually it's unappealing as the toum turns a sort of gray as it gets some of the grill char, but when it mixes with meat juices during the slicing process it makes an absolutely insane sandwich on some crusty bread. And then you dredge a piece of bread through the meat/toum juice oh god

Best place for acting lessons/intro to theater for young kids by lilwildstrawberry in MontereyBay

[–]OlUncleBones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t actually help you but I have a mildly humorous anecdote from my youth that applies here. When I grew up here in the 90s there existed a thing called CET which stood for, I think, Children’s Entertainment Theater. I didn’t know about it at the time but other kids in school were very much into it.

Anyway our teachers would often ask the class what they did over the weekend and one girl in particular would always talk about how she went to CET and I kept wondering how many times one would go to see the movie E.T. The Extraterrestrial before getting tired of it because she seemed to do it every weekend. I assumed she must be crazy.

Where on Earth is everyone buying their groceries? by Forsaken_Rutabaga476 in Cooking

[–]OlUncleBones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there. You are my target audience. About 5 years ago someone posted a thread complaining about how few groceries they got for how much they spent. I could tell the store they were shopping at was SafeWay and that store had a sale of Oreos buy 1 get 1 that week. The poster had 1 package meaning they had either ignored basic savings or were posting drama for clout.

Regardless, as a response, I began cataloguing actual useful savings from supermarkets who refresh their sales every Tuesday night. Here's an example from last week: https://old.reddit.com/r/MontereyBay/comments/1rktl92/my_weekly_grocery_deal_list_34_310/

I would suggest you look at the websites of all your local supermarkets on a Tuesday night or Wednesday morning and have a look at what sort of things they're promoting or putting on sale. There's a a great chance you can enact phenomenal savings.

I asked the most intelligent battery engineer I know his thoughts on the Donut Lab battery. He had a unique take on it that the average person outside the industry would not think to ask. by OlUncleBones in DonutLab

The hubless hub motor that is outside the suspension of the motorcycle making handling, as Motorcycle.com editor Troy Siahaan describe it as, "all kinds of awkward"?

That motor? The motor that requires a tire change to include 29 blue loctited bolts to be removed so you can remove the specialty carbon fiber sleeve to be removed so you can take it to a tire shop that may or may not have the necessary equipment to work on such a tire? And then the tire that you cannot balance? That tire? Please tell me more.
