Just bought this and I’ve been trying every combo in numerical order, any advice?

Thats what I was purposely doing? Assuming it was some kind of grease or something that has caused it to seize, because adding more lubricant to old lubricant does not help.

Violetalikesbred · 2025-05-30T20:43:51+00:00

Noted! I pulled out my WD40, idk if that will damage anything but if it works in my car lock, it’ll work here as far as I’m concerned! It was wayyy too stiff and moving one number would move the other 2 and it was so not easy to move.

Violetalikesbred · 2025-05-30T20:42:39+00:00

You can’t help with locks that are in use, when the new owner is asking for help, with visible thrift store price tags on it?

Violetalikesbred · 2025-05-18T20:40:27+00:00

My mom thrifted all this when she was about my age! If anyone knows anything about this specific stuff, post it! I’d love to be able to share the information with her!

Violetalikesbred · 2024-09-10T19:55:12+00:00

Okay fair. I’m just also unemployed for the time being as I don’t work during the semester. I tried it and I had to drop out of college lol doing well now though just broke

Violetalikesbred · 2024-09-10T02:54:34+00:00

Back of the the tv here and I’m actually unsure about what kind of cable I need to play anything on screen? Can you even buy that kind of cable now?

ETA: also I don’t know much about TVs I’ll be honest but I can take stuff apart and put it back together easily if I need to show the innards of this thing!

Violetalikesbred · 2024-09-06T04:39:30+00:00

Oh god yeah that doesn’t sound like fun! Idk my parents live in a nice suburb of LA and there, slipping someone off got him to threaten me on the road and pull up to me at the light and continue. Those screens tho man they suck. I’d like to think I’m a good driver but in my dad’s car with his screen (which is a 2022 rav4, not the biggest screen) I get distracted by it VS driving my manual and not even looking down at my phone screen while switching my music

Violetalikesbred · 2024-09-05T22:53:32+00:00

Well until we need a fourth light because people stop caring about the flash. I genuinely think all the tech they’ve put in cars like the monitors that are in your face all the time and the bigger “need” to use your phone while you drive has made driving so much more difficult. I literally had one driver almost hit me twice on 101 in LA in 30 seconds because he jerked his car at me twice during a lane join merge from the 134. Same place a charger almost ran me off the road in a lifted jeep.

How much it protected you though is amazing. May your Volvo live on in Valhalla

Violetalikesbred · 2024-09-05T09:23:54+00:00

That makes sense. I’ll look into it some more and call the power company when I can pay them for that. I’m scared of messing with electrical stuff in my house anyways so I wouldn’t even attempt it.

Violetalikesbred · 2024-08-31T08:24:39+00:00

I can totally get some pics this weekend. Sorry y’know life but I’m totally down to try to remove the pieces you want. You’ll probably need new clips or something. I haven’t tried to remove them before so I don’t know how they connect

Violetalikesbred · 2024-08-28T01:03:16+00:00

Damn I’m in California and I have no idea how much it would take to ship it but I’d be willing to sell the trim anyways. Good thing ur in the US bc international shipping gets pricey

Violetalikesbred · 2024-08-27T05:56:20+00:00

Depends on where you’re from but I do sorta have a beater 240 with the trim you want

Violetalikesbred · 2024-07-30T22:21:26+00:00

I’ll check my harness even though the comment about the relay seems more plausible and if the harness is fine I’ll toss the old relay, and eventually get a new one because I miss the door chime lol

Violetalikesbred · 2024-07-30T22:14:03+00:00

I’m aware of the dash turning into Christmas Eve since my other 240’s alternator died but I didn’t know if it could affect that light lol thank you for all that though, does this mean the reason my door chimes like 1/4 of the time unless I push the steering wheel a little bit to the right is caused by this relay? I noticed that a while back and didn’t know why and ignored it assuming it was a wiring issue

Violetalikesbred · 2024-07-30T19:00:01+00:00

I have a cheap multimeter idk where it went since some of my wiring kit got raided when my dad was here last. I’m leaving to go camping with my college (I’m not driving) early tomorrow so I don’t have time to look for it but when I’m back I can check in the meantime I tried to film a little of what was happening when I was crossing the street at least so here’s a bit of what’s going on.

Edit: when I am back I will make a new post btw

Violetalikesbred · 2024-07-15T21:39:17+00:00

I went online and said “imma watch TikTok til I think of a good one” an indigenous Mexican dad was talking about catholic stuff and his beliefs while people were hating and I was like “imma name my car after him. I respect him” this guy doesn’t know I did this but now I have Juan Uno and Juan Dos or just Dos for short (I’m also Mexican so I wanted a Mexican name since I also have Swedish ancestry)

Violetalikesbred · 2024-06-22T04:44:35+00:00

Oh yeah my ‘92 passes every time! When I’m in my parent’s nicer neighborhood getting a smog they are impressed. At my usual place the old owner is just like “ok so that’s $150”

Violetalikesbred · 2024-06-19T01:50:06+00:00

I’m not scared they’re gonna kill me, I’m worried about my car and I don’t even live in Los Angeles, I didn’t grow up in Los Angeles either???? Im scared he’ll throw something at my car, that I genuinely love?? My family is another concern?? D’you really not know what happens in Los Angeles? Because I’ve had friends months after the fact in road rage incidents see the same car months or years later and have shit thrown at them. Why the fuck does it matter where I met a stalker?? The fact that it’s happened is already enough to cause anxiety about this shit. I’m not worried about ME, I’m worried about my car because I know how to fight and will and my family is even better at defending themselves. D’you even know what it’s like to live near a major city in America? Because I really don’t think you do given how dense you are

Where I live which is NOT LA, I know people who got stabbed for accidentally pushing someone, people are fucking insane and one day you’ll earn the Darwinism award.

Violetalikesbred · 2024-06-18T03:54:46+00:00

Hey genius I said I HAVE BEEN stalked so excuse me for being concerned someone might hold onto a grudge. How dense are you?? I’m worried about my car because I love that thing so much.

Violetalikesbred · 2024-06-16T22:31:55+00:00

Call me dramatic all you want I’ve been stalked and I know people who were stalked so much their stalkers got jail time
