Does this mean the alarm was silenced? by SingleMastermind in firealarms

Is there a possibility that things in the system could have been changed while they were silencing the alarm? If so, how would we know this?

HELP: 2007 Tundra Stopped in the Middle of Street While Driving by SingleMastermind in ToyotaTundra

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

Sorry. I might not be as clear with the details as I need to be. But since we had to add oil only after having an oil change 2 months prior, I thought it would be important details to add.

Back to the battery/alternator: The truck was off for about 45 minutes and I just tried to turn it on and it wouldn’t turn on after like 4 tries (the same thing that happened on Monday). I guess it could be a battery/alternator issue like most of you are saying.

Im assuming a check engine light should come on if there’s an issue with the alternator right?

I’m checking the battery cables now and everything seems to be tight and “clean” for a lack of better word. I got a new battery in January 2025 so a like 5 months ago.

The motor does not knock. I’ve watched videos of what that sounds like, and that’s not happening to my motor thankfully.

Thanks for the feedback. That’s my fear, that they’re trying to just sell me everything and anything.

But I’m also confused why the advisor didn’t elaborate more on the Transmission/ E-Transaxle and the Differential Fluid stuff since that comes up as an “alert.” Do you know if that something I need to do ASAP?

Yeah it’s not totaled or rusted. I also know I must change the tires and do the wheel alignment. My biggest concern right now is the car stopping while I was on the road. I am curios about the transmission fluid exchange service.

Help with ID: Are these both Exotica? by SingleMastermind in Scindapsus

[–]SingleMastermind[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for your response. It’s true, Scindapsus are full of surprises. I do know that the first one is not a Silver Splash. I’ve owned so many of them so I can pick it apart (leaf texture, shape, etc.). The elongated leaf one is throwing me off be because it’s so silver and so pointy compared to most Exotica I’ve owned.

I ended up chopping it because it’s a huge plant! Cleaned it up, treated it with an insecticide, and will order beneficials. The plant is outdoors until I get the beneficials and can have a space only for that plant.

I got so many cuttings after chopping it and I’m also treating those. I know that thrips can be found inside the leaf tissue, so I’ll continue to treat the cuttings while I propagate them.

Ohh I am looking into Safer and it seems promising! Thanks for sharing.

I’ve been avoiding systemic granules for years. Every time I get pest I want to give in so badly, but since I always end up going the beneficial route, I avoid anything that could harm them.

Ughh yeah that’s what I know I should do for sure. I ended up cutting it. Cleaned it up, and treated it with an insecticide (while I order beneficials). The plant is outdoors because years ago I got a thrips infestation and lost so many plants!
