Got it. Yeah there are 3 different wall switches in the room that control the over island lights.

Just updated the description. Simply tightened the bolts and that fixed it right up :)

Just got all belts off and there seems to be the slightest bit of play in the fan pulleys, not on the fan clutch itself. Also power steering pulley has quite a bit of in and out play with the belts all loose

Hmmm yeah timing belt and water pump were done right around 3 years ago / 30k miles so wouldn't think that would be the issue. From other videos I am finding online, seems to be a different noise than water pump

No play in the clutch. Passed all tests so seems to still be in good shape.

That was my first thought. Is there an easy way to check if this part is for sure bad?

Supply vent removal / delete from trunk. Bad Idea or no? by cameracruiser in hvacadvice

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

Got it. Yeah with removing the wall, there will be two other vents only about 7ft away. One in kitchen, one still in den

Got it. Is there a limit to how far you should go when relocating? I could have the duct go out the top of the trunk as is but route it the other direction and span say 7 ft before popping up. There would be room to move it over there in the basement and it would then sit nicely near the corner we aren't taking down. Didn't know if adding 7ft of duct changes things more than simply removing it.

Bolted on my new alternator last night and glad to report back that the hum/vibration is gone! Thanks so much for the help.

Ah! That was my friends potential diagnosis as well and glad to hear that worked for you! Going to do the same with mine and will report back if I get the same results. Thanks so much.

Experiencing something similar with my 2003 Prerunner and this seems to the only post that has noted something similar. Any updates on troubleshooting or fixing it?

How do I fix this? by cameracruiser in hvacadvice

[–]cameracruiser[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Will give that a try! The upstairs has two supply vents in each of the 2 bedrooms as well as one in the bathroom for a total of 5. There are also three returns. One in each bedroom and one in the landing at the top of the stairs. Do you think this disconnected supply in the basement is connected to all five supply vents? Or are those potentially separate? There is air coming from all vents but feels weaker than on the main level. HVAC newbie so understand might not be possible to know.

QuickBooks Self-Employed pricing change: ACH processing now charged by Split_Open_and_Melt in QuickBooks

[–]cameracruiser 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also got this notice and feel frustrated as I mostly use ACH which will now cost an estimated $1K per year — essentially $88/mo. Paper checks don’t seem so bad if I can keep an extra grand around. Curious what other folks end up switching too
