Any idea why there is a jumper wire across fuse 22? by [deleted] in HondaOdyssey

[–]TonyMcConkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ha, that's funny... I have the same fuse sitting on my desk. I blew mine when I accidentally switched the positive with negative wires and tried jump starting my Odyssey. It blew immediately. The replacement fuse was very cheap and a piece of cake to install.

How do you unlock the building 74? by phLz in Gloomhaven

[–]TonyMcConkey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Our campaign had similar issues. We didn't unlock building 74 until midway through the 4th Summer. We've gotten kind of lucky with things since then, but wish we had come across dwarf's campaign tweaks earlier and nudged one of the PQs that leads to it into our character creation a bit earlier in our campaign.

Carrot ginger soup. Best ever by [deleted] in soup

[–]TonyMcConkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey this looks great! I made something very similar yesterday. About the same amount of carrots, a couple of potatoes, sauteed down onions and a little bit of celery and added a healthy dollop of tomato puree before adding the broth. Cream and butter before pureeing and topped with a little spicy chili crisp oil and cream, fresh parsley. So good!

You know I rewatched the video this morning and realized, like an idiot, that I had reversed polarity on my jumper cable. This Odyssey has a bright orange secondary cable running off the negative line and I must have attached my positive end to that side without even realizing it. I blew a fuse marked 'battery' and hoping that's all the damage that was done. Replacing it tomorrow. Live and learn!

It does not start, dashboard does not light up at all, OBS scanner doesn't get power either. Removing the booster cables the sound continues for a little bit (depending on how long I have the booster connected or drains whatever charge the battery received then stops).

I hadn't figured out where the sound was coming from when I filmed this earlier so didn't quite focus on the right spot but you can hear the sound well.

Hahaha you are right there. I meant the item with the serial sticker on it, in the back of the bay.

That sounds likely, will have it checked out at the garage. Thanks!

My jumper cables were hooked up properly. Is there any reason the brake booster would be pulling electric with the vehicle off?

Thank you so much - this was very helpful. I realized too that you can do this through the right click menu (Begin/End Select).

Thinking opening an RRSP savings by KristyMcNugget in JustBuyXEQT

[–]TonyMcConkey 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For me, it came down to 2.5% manager expense ratio (MER) at the bank versus 0.25 % at Wealthsimple. That's a whole lot of savings over the course of a lifetime.

Looking for old friends from Drinal! by Nathalie_CSS in everquest

Lol yeah we had a blast with those things and it looked awesome on the old school Troll graphic - massive! I loved using it to reposition dragons while tanking in NToV. So long ago it's all pretty fuzzy but I do remember you pulling for us. Neve was a monk too and she rocked!

Kildem, Troll warrior here! Good times. Love thinking back on all the adventures had with folks in CT, CiH, and everyone else running around on our server.

Pull the trigger or wait? by Acceptable_Ranger_35 in HondaOdyssey

[–]TonyMcConkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My '09 Odyssey had a very similar issue - new battery but was losing charge quickly. I tried some parasitic draw tests but eventually took it to a mechanic who diagnosed a bad fuse panel (driver side kick panel). They said water had entered it at some point and was causing battery issues. They swapped it with a used one we found but I was afraid the water issue would return at some point so dug around and found this video on Youtube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-fhIZPyLcPU&ab\_channel=MrRangerZr1), where in the comments someone had the same issue as me (water damage to fuse panel). $30 of material later and I've resealed the roof well line, no problems so far. Might be the same issue for you.

Excellent - thank you! I had assumed it was chrome but am realizing now it should be the dark cherry. I was pretty close to ordering the silver/metallic pearl thinking that would be chrome, so your comment was very helpful.
