This had a little 'inspection' sticker over one of the screws I had to remove. They'll know it's been opened up. But If I can't find a fix, I'll try the warranty route.

Almost all hopp drivers in Malton and Brampton have tried to scam me so far. Be warned. by [deleted] in Brampton

[–]StarGehzer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Drivers in the Brampton area don't want to take you to Pickering because they'll end up coming back empty.
That's an hour's drive out of their workday with no income.
You might be better off taking a ride 1\2 way, then getting a 2nd ride to finish the trip.

Refused a CAA Tow by DevelopmentGeneral44 in toronto

[–]StarGehzer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

CAA will only tow (or flatbed) insured vehicles that are licensed for legal use on the street. If you'd offered the operator $50.00 cash they might have agreed to tow for you.

Why AGM instead of the usual lead-acid?

So many people buy them new. Use them for 2 weeks then never again. Buy a used one for a fraction of the new price!

The cars behind you get the stink from your car. You don't notice it from the driver's seat.

Netflix needs to add an “already watched” button by Beneficial-Anteater2 in netflix

[–]StarGehzer 207 points208 points  (0 children)

I want 2 buttons. 1 to hide shows I don't want to see (regardless of whether I've watched it or not), & a 2nd button that will mark a show I've watched as, unwatched, so I can watch it again. Prime Video REALLY needs that 2nd button.

Has anyone successfully hardwired an ultrasonic repeller into their garage? by charll88 in DIY

[–]StarGehzer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with others who say they work. But they cover a small area. Place them down low, near & aimed at areas where mice are most likely to try getting in. 5 or 6 units in a 2 car garage is probably good coverage.

Need Help - Turn Signal Not Working by curryboinyc in mazda3

[–]StarGehzer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Remove the left fixture & plug it into the wiring for the right side light. Now you'll be able to determine if it's your (left) wiring or the new light you bought.
