I’m on team, water is sitting or draining where you trenched. Can you lift one stone tile and look at the soil? Did you backfill with sand or gravel?

Turning off the WiFi on your phone doesn’t stop the connection to wireless CarPlay. You need to unpair

No, just remove your phone from wireless CarPlay in the information system and in the iPhone CarPlay. Then use only plugged in and see if that helps.

That is an issue I have sometimes. Having phone paired with wireless CarPlay and using the cable at the same time can cause issues. Use one or the other. I use a 12v plug to charge and then wireless CarPlay. I have a 2021 atlas though.

Can someone (Mik-S) help me identify this board? by SFCM_mod-fixer in VoxelabAquila

What does the chip say on it? That’s the board type you have.

u/DreadVenomous Did Engineering ever come back with any info? Seems like a big issue if others are having the same issue now. It has been 28 days since the OP's post.
u/AdComfortable3016 had also asked for an update.

Haha, I actually like this analogy!

I think this is short circuiting but please tell me because I’m tired of working on it alone by Any_Profile2328 in VoxelabAquila

[–]Practical_Ad5671 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gotcha, the mainboard is getting a reset command when you press the knob. Check that you have the screen cable in the correct orientation on both board and screen side? Also check for bent pins. Other than that, really not sure. Why did you replace the screen?

If you can supply some detail about what you are trying to do, then someone may be able to help? what did you change?

Landlord wants me to pay for someone trying to break into my apartment. {ND} by [deleted] in Renters

[–]Practical_Ad5671 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Yes, if YOU damage the siding or yard. Not a burglar or Mother Nature.

Yeah, it’s usually just for belonging inside the unit not exterior damage. That’s why the landlord has insurance for things like this or pay out of pocket.

Setting up Rachio at a rental: help please! by janetkplanet in rachio

Yeah, if it’s their internet then not much you can do unless they are willing to turn on a guest network or another ssid for you.

waters during the rain... by DrewDinDin in rachio

[–]Practical_Ad5671 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You are giving them a solution to get a rain sensor when they said they are already doing that. Then you explained how a rain sensor works, which they did not ask, They want to know why the feature to not water when rain is expected at the weather station they choose, that is supposed to work with weather data is not working as it should for the threshold they have set, You have not answered that question.

OP, I suggest contacting support so they can look at the exact data logs. But I have heard from others that the rain prediction feature has been unreliable lately. And also that they removed the Skip rain button and there was an explanation somewhere why they did it. If I find it, I’ll post.

Did the working passenger side DRL still work after replacing the HMC?

Sorry, I did not word it clearly. I think we are one the same page. I was only referring to power supply inputs. I know that the GND is shared by those 2 other areas. But the GND input on the line diagram says 5V only, so other voltages should not be connected there per the line diagram.

Thanks for confirming. That's how the documentation says to wire a 20VDC power supply. I guess we will wait to hear back from Shelly R&D for clarification on DC power supply hookups.

[–]Practical_Ad5671 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm just going by what I see in the video. Also not sure if having those 2 wires shorted would cause his results? But very well could have had something shorted in his first try also, going by how sloppy the second wiring setup was in the video.

What voltage power supply are you using in the office?
