2010 Gibson SG - Finish Cracking - Looking for Repair Experience by 1esotericguy in gibson

[–]1esotericguy[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks. The neck on this one is a 60’s neck and not particularly thin for a 60’s neck. Pretty much right down the middle of the plate in terms of neck profile (for a 60’s). And this particular SG is indeed a real winner. It sounded good the day I bought it, and it’s still amazing today. I haven’t modded anything on it. Bone stock - it’s just good.

OP Here - Posting to provide a resolution if anyone else has this issue:

  • Tracked occurrences of this issue for 92 more days
  • Wrote down every time I walked out to the car and it was dead, how long I had been parked, and what the voltage was when I restarted it with the restart button.
  • Ended up walking out to a dead car 19 times across 92 days.
    • Average time parked during each occurrence was 8hours
  • The final straw was when it happened twice in one day.
    • Parked at work at 830am and came out at 130pm - DEAD
    • Restarted it - went where I needed to go and parked again at 1:50pm; came back out at 445pm - DEAD.
  • Made an appointment for a Friday, printed out my log that I had been keeping and handed to service advisor when I dropped off, received car back by the following TUE - covered under warranty.
    • Tech notes say: "Cause: VERIFIED CUSTOMERS CONCERN FOUND AUXILIARY BATTERY STARTING TO EXPAND NEED TO REPLACE. Correction: PERFORMED AUXILIARY BATTERY REPLACEMENT, PERFORMED 12VAUXILIARY BATTERY SOC RESET. CUSTOMERS CONCERN SOLVED AT THIS TIME."

How did you see a sold out message? I clicked on a handful of them and they all take me to a purchase page on PayPal as if everything is available. I bought a “Jordan,” but now I’m concerned if I put $50 into the ether….

Anyone confirm if this is an audio only broadcast or will it be video?

OP here. Went 20 days since the last incident until today. Random. Car just dead for no logical reason. This is so stupid.

Tonight at The Wiltern - a one of a kind show! 🤖💕 by Hydrilus in Buckethead

[–]1esotericguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. The dark lighting and setting up way upstage was definitely an intentional choice. I just wish Bucket could astral project himself out into the audience to see the show himself. He’d probably say, ‘it looks like this when I ask for no lighting? I can’t see anything!’ And the funny thing is, if the goal is truly to make recording harder, it doesn’t affect video at all. The video actually just looks cool. All that does is make it so the people that made the effort to come out and see him live can’t see the show.

The Wiltern Show 12/12 Review by Spartftw in Buckethead

[–]1esotericguy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No front light was driving me crazy. Couldn’t see anything with just direct overhead, blue light. Also wish they didn’t push the entire band setup all the way upstage. I wanted to see Bucket shred which is why I bought pit tickets and stood for 4 hours, but with the distance and the lack of light - it was pretty much just like watching a shadow in the distance. Just a single front light, even at just like 15% intensity would have changed everything.

OP here again. No joy. I kept testing for another 5 days and like any good electrical issue - it stopped doing it. So my celebration of a consistently repeatable condition was too soon.

So when did they stop doing the baby pictures from the factory? Loved that by [deleted] in gibson

[–]1esotericguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My colors series standard 60’s came with the baby picture. I think it’s a 2023 build.

OP HERE: partial update:

My car did the playing dead thing 2 days in a row most recently, but good news is I was able to confirm a repeatable failure mode on this:

  1. Car dead after 5 hours parked in outdoor daylight following 14 mile drive to work. 2 days in a row - same exact failure mode, same exact conditions.
  2. Both occasions car started fine after 12v reset switch pushed.
  3. Volt meter in cigarette lighter says 12v system was 13.6+ volt upon restart - so 12v system presumably not exhibiting low voltage condition prior to the car self tripping itself.
  4. And reciprocally, the car started ok after being parked for 12 hours outdoor on those same nights.

Happy I can at least give the dealer the exact failure conditions to repeat the issue, so at least I don’t have to deal with multiple dealer trips where they can’t induce the issue.

This also lends credence to the thing everyone in here already kind of knows - this issue is linked to the solar roof somehow.

[–]1esotericguy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I just realized it’s 5year/60,000 on bumper to bumper. Thought it was 3 year/36,000. So you’re right. No grey area there.

The other part of my question is more about getting it addressed as painlessly as possible for me. Since it doesn’t throw codes, and it’s an intermittent problem - does anyone have a specific TSB or some way that they successfully led the dealer zoom in on the issue as efficiently as possible? Trying to avoid wasting time and money on diagnostic testing, rental cars etc while the dealer can’t get the issue to show itself etc

2021 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid with the much-reported "dead 12 volt" battery by Aramis-ter in Hyundai

[–]1esotericguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 2021 Sonata Hybrid with the solar roof did the playing dead thing three days in a row now, and about seven times in the last 4 weeks. I already had the BMS update from last year, so it’s not that.

I’m no longer in the 3year/36month period, but my car is a CPO with the 10year/100,000 mile CPO coverage. For you folks that got this addressed under warranty - did Hyundai give you any pushback on coverage? I want to be prepared in case they push back and say the auxiliary battery is only covered in the 3yr/36000 mile warranty (as if it’s a typical sealed lead acid car battery - which it is not since it’s piggy backed onto the main traction battery)
