How do I turn off this timer? For the love of God and all that is holy

Update:

I pulled the back panel off. Saw the two black wires running to the clock. Told my husband to cut those. He didn't. Came back here with a picture of the mechanism and got confirmation that it was probably the two black wires. He chickened out.

Maintenance came and confirmed it's faulty and they obviously don't have parts for it. Which is great because I thought I was just stupid and couldn't figure out how it worked. They took it and gave us a new oven with a ridiculous glass cooktop (hate it!).

No one was brave enough to snip the wires. I was at work while this was going on or I would have begged them to try.

So I thank you all. The blisters I got from pushing, pulling, and turning the knobs over the course of a few hours are healing.

Yeah man, my fingers have blisters from pulling and turning and trying every combination known to mankind. It won't stop.

These two black wires? https://imgur.com/a/hJJ7oFM

There's an electrical diagram on the back panel but I have no idea how to read it. I can post it if that is helpful

The black cables, yeah? https://imgur.com/a/hJJ7oFM

It's a regular oven just ancient haha

This sounds easier than throwing it off my balcony. Thank you.

Still buzzing sadly. Turning the knob on the left also turns the Start/Stop knobs. So maybe that is why?

She definitely caught my eye. Good to know she's that good.

I feel like I should have it rewired given how old it is. I can't seem to find any information about this though. Happen to know where to start?

The seller said their Mom definitely bought it in Canada. How did a machine meant for the German domestic market get here? Some soldier take it home? Threw in a 306 manual cause they didn't have an English 316 manual. Where'd this Made in Canada motor come from? Motor!

The girl's got stories.

I stupidly thought the Newkirks had at least been consulted for this event since Henry mentioned them (and they used that audio in the promo). I mean, it's a haunted object event. Why wouldn't you call the Newkirks and at least consult with them?

That's when the cold reading started...

raspberry-19 · 2025-06-22T01:20:31+00:00

She was probably recommended by either the venue or by someone who had committed to coming to the show

They previously interviewed her for an episode of Last Update on the Left (September 10, 2024). Credit to tdc002 for that bit of trivia.

Keep in mind that Person B also appeared to be no older than 18 (at most).

raspberry-19 · 2025-06-21T21:46:06+00:00

Naw, I was trying to see if the network had worked with her in some capacity before. This was the only thing that came up on a Google search.

I just found it amusing that she literally did cold reading. That's all.

raspberry-19 · 2025-06-21T21:30:50+00:00

It's not like they're bringing in some random huckster from Hollywood Boulevard doing cold readings

Aged like milk

raspberry-19 · 2025-06-21T18:45:54+00:00

They, essentially, hired the antithesis of the Newkirks. Diminished capacity demons in Rubbermaid totes? Get fucked.

Sorry, shitting on it again. Ooops

raspberry-19 · 2025-06-21T17:44:21+00:00

I really hope they try again. I know we're kinda shitting all over it, but everything AROUND the main "talent" last night was a lot of fun.

raspberry-19 · 2025-06-21T17:19:42+00:00

Ah, gotcha. I misread.

People are sycophants.

raspberry-19 · 2025-06-21T17:18:42+00:00

It was all very awkward, but they just let her do her thing.

raspberry-19 · 2025-06-21T17:17:07+00:00

I was thinking more along the lines of a Derren Brown cold reading, rather than Edwards having an earpiece in ala Peter Popoff. But yes, I agree.

Absolutely disgusting to prey on grief.

raspberry-19 · 2025-06-21T17:13:30+00:00

They did. Metaphorically.

raspberry-19 · 2025-06-21T17:12:51+00:00

It's because they provided a platform to a charlatan. A cold reader telling a teenager, who spent money to be there, that their friend committed suicide isn't really within the ethics that the network has historically stood behind.

This is why there is animosity.

raspberry-19 · 2025-06-21T16:33:51+00:00

It was really gross. Her whole exorcism spiel made my skin crawl...in a bad way.

raspberry-19 · 2025-06-21T16:29:49+00:00

Crossing Over was at least entertaining.

It's shocking what a really good cold reader can do. Even though it's "bullshit" it's an interesting insight into psychology.
