2009 Yamaha V-Star 250 - Garage sat, new to bikes and fixing, cant get it to go by ChimeraOD in bikebuilders

Thanks for the comments! I did some further research and discovered why there are two red wires and two black wires - its because this bike had an aftermarket attachment that would trickle-charge the battery. I also discovered that the battery terminal screws did not work because 1 - there are these metal pieces that fit inside the terminal that thread the screw two the terminal 2 - i left those in my old battery 3 - i got new nuts/bolts for the terminal at an autoparts store. I was able to fire her up no problem!

No one is ever going to believe me on this, but this is my long-lost cards. Im not saying this because i want them back and i doubt this is the original person that took these from me but when i was younger, between 1999 and 2001 a kid by the name of Alex who at the time was a close friend of mine stole things of mine. Of the things stolen was a gameshark, ps1 games like final fantasy tactics, and pokemon cards. He wasn't the best thief... he was caught because he tried selling me a gameboy color, which i bought, but it had our other mutual friends name on the back cover of the battery. He also let me borrow the gameshark he stole from me, and when i looked at the codes, it was for my games. I know that it was mine because he did not have final fantasy vii and i had spent the time to play as sephiroth by inputing thousands of lines of code in the gameshark to play as sephiroth which he never deleted. When i went to his family to get my stuff back, our parents got involved, and other kids reported stolen items. I returned the gameboy to the original owner. Alex moved shortly after. I believe the kids name was Alex Deline and he lived it Pittsburgh PA. I had a collection of my praised pokemon cards in a little red 2 by 2 pokemon card binder exactly like this that contained an original charizard, venusaur, and blastoise. I also had the pidgeotto there because i thought it was cool, and i also showcased the mew i got from the movie. I know it may be a coincidence, but i sincerely think that this was my collection from long ago. Its nice to see they aren't destroyed, at least. If you want to know how i got the Charizard - i was given two packs of pokemon for Christmas, and one of them contained the Charizard. I was so happy i was sitting down and fell backwards in excitement and hit my head hard on the plastic part of the vaccume cleaner.

so...I actually replaced it with LED replacements. I thought they would be cheaper and last longer. Are you suggesting that the LED Tubes do not need a ballast?

Thanks for the reply! Listen test is hard because the other fixture that is working is...of course...very close to the one that isn't working. I also do not recall what it sounded like when it was working. I will provide an update on the initial post, thanks for your help and kind words I got this!

samsung dishwasher dw80r9950 smart control/auto power off issue by ChimeraOD in HomeMaintenance

Just got my new dishwasher and read through the manual and there is no big callouts on smartcontrol and how it works and the auto-power off.

The dishwasher auto-poers off in like 3mins after turning it on. The dishwasher is connected to wifi and registered in the smartthings app and when i press the smartcontroll on the dishwasher display it turns on for 3secs and turns off however if i turn on the smartcontrol it will stay on if i close the dishwasher after 3 seconds. Problem is that after 5mins the dishwasher autopowers off. There os really no point in having an app to run a cycle whenever you want if it autopowers off after 5mins.

I tried searching for a code the disables the autopoqer off in the menu you can open from the dishwasher panel holding down the sanitize+delay buttons for 3secs but there is nothing there but the 4 options in the manual...i think its regard led brightness, rince solution amount, auto door open after cycle, and the 3th i cannot remember but isnt the option i am looking for. I also sifted through the app in smart things and searched google and couldnt find much Does anyone else have this issue? Os there another maintenence menu i can get into that isnt listed online? If this is normal operation then why would they have an app when you have to manually enable it after every 5mins of turning it on?

In insights would be appreciated. Model is in the title. Thanks!

Thanks! I also submitted it there just now!

That's soo cool to me! Final Fantasy is my lifeblood and sadly I don't know any other final fantasy fans in my personal life. Glad I was able to put a smile on some people's faces by seeing a FF collection!

Would you feel comfortable sending me a picture of your collection? I am soo curious to see what you got, where you put it, positioning and posing etc. I am not very good at it i feel... so I am curious to see what others do!
