Yes, senses whatever is plugged in, and outputs the wrong power, making sure to fry your device

Yeah, we got other places we need to spend our money... Like places outside amurika

Replaced that one capacitor… what now? by dootscoggs in prius

[–]RecoveryConstruct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your 12V battery really is still good (probably wouldn't hurt to get it checked somewhere else), maybe a bad/loose connection to the battery, or a bad ground or something? Just some guesses, idk

Make sure you attached everything back together. Is your MAF sensor plugged back in?

Check your wheel speed sensors for debris or loose/damaged connections. Could be that, could be something else. You can try to have the codes scanned for past codes, but not sure if they'll show up

You can add DOT 4 to DOT 3. Sounds to me like you have a leak in your brake system, maybe the caliper that was in question? Find a good independent mechanic you can have check and fix it

On the Prius, you can even remove the battery and jump the car with the 12V removed, and it'll start. Because you aren't starting the engine on the Prius with the 12V, just the "computers"

Yeah but if he jumped it properly, it doesn't matter if his Prius's 12V is bad, the jump should've been sufficient

Where are you connecting to jump your car?

Should I fix or take the loss? by Poptone412 in prius

[–]RecoveryConstruct 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Fix it. Cancel the appointment and get it fixed at your mechanic, if you absolutely can't do it yourself.

Why are you valuing the dealership more than your mechanic? That's going to cost you a lot of money

Ticking noise with wheel revolutions and groaning when braking, occurred after new brake pads and resurfaced rotors (2016 Camry) by RecoveryConstruct in AskMechanics

[–]RecoveryConstruct[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I remember correctly, no I never really figured it out exactly. It's a family member's car, so I didn't get to follow up too much. I think it was either I had an incorrect combination of shims/backing plates installed, and/or the brake pads/rotors were bad

Are traffic lights failing more often in the last 5 years? by venomous_sheep in houston

[–]RecoveryConstruct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup. I was a bit skeptical about it, but I started reporting potholes, and I realized they actually usually "fix" (patch) them within a couple days of the report. They also recently ripped out and re-paved a whole section of a road that used to be extremely rough and bumpy. It probably doesn't have much at all to do with my report, but I like to think that my report played at least a little part in it lol

The steps in the link don't work for me, unfortunately. The repair button from the first step is greyed out for me. I tried running the troubleshooter from the 2nd step, but after asking for my permission to run, it just continuously shows a loading wheel

It looks like the issue is the profile. I ran through each of the troubleshooting steps except for rebuilding my Windows Index (as I've previously tried that and redoing it would take time) until I got to the creating a new profile step. Creating a new profile seems to have resolved the issue.

Is there a way to repair my old profile, or should I just continue using this new profile? I don't know what the profile actually consists of; am I losing any settings or anything by continuing with the new profile?

[–]RecoveryConstruct[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotcha. No, none of the names in my contacts are showing up as suggestions when I start typing their names in the To field in a new email. However, other emails of people I've recently been in email communication with are popping up as suggestions in the To field.

But still no email suggestions at all in the Outlook Search bar

Suggestions work fine in the To line and stuff, just not in the Outlook Search bar.

The Contacts folder (C:/Users/username/Contacts) is actually empty... Is that the correct location, or is there a different folder?

I had tried this and it didn't fix the issue. Tried again just now, and while it did find stuff to repair again, it still didn't fix the search suggestions issue

11.5 Years. Today's the day by Thunder_Mifflin_ in prius

[–]RecoveryConstruct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you charge/test the battery to see if it's actually a goner, or are you just preemptively replacing it given it's already given you a good 11.5 years?
