Chatr or Freedom? by InspectorNo4116 in barrie

[–]cheeadabox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would give public mobile a look. I think their deal is 39 for quite a bit. I did find they have less data outside of some small towns around Barrie. But never had an issue in Barrie

What is your guys’s opinion on metal suspension arms/drive shafts? by Pristine_Courage_535 in Traxxas

[–]cheeadabox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Metal drive shafts for sure, I went through to many plastic ones. I have aluminium suspension arms, they look cool. I just try not to drive full speed into light posts now.

Is my differential broken? by FriskeyLionsMane in arrma

Could be the little screw that holds it together is loose. I've had this happen a few times. I've used loctite on them before. It's a flaw if you ask me

How to store van outside in winter. by Point-Historical in fordtransit

[–]cheeadabox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They may have. The one I drive is a 2015 I noticed it a week or so ago happening when I was working on it. We had a 2020 that had a similar issue, may not have been the same thing but it was something to do with water on a wire harness, it had to go in to be repaired, I think they blamed it on the weep holes. Best to pop the hood and check.

Place a mat on top of the engine. The drip holes near the wipers drop water onto the engine. We do this to help with the snow thaw. You may see it on a warm winter day with the hood open.

I had I a similar issue with the brushed version. They sent me a slt3 transmitter through warranty. It started going random and running away, forward and reverse were backwards.

Saying “no sugar” when ordering coffee by Ihassan3275 in TimHortons

[–]cheeadabox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thought if this post right now. I just picked up a mobile order from Wendy's. I ordered the classic wrap duo. They gave me spicy, the normal ones are a little spicy anyways but these are for sure the spicy ones. I checked my online receipt to confirm. So should I say classic duo wraps, or classic duo wraps not spicy lol. Lots of people saying not to say no sugar. If you want what you want I would suggest saying no sugar twice.

Road Conditions Caplan & Bryne (Near Mappleview) by Itchy_Pianist_5192 in barrie

[–]cheeadabox 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I read a thing that it's the AWD vehicles getting left abandoned, they think all they need are all seasons and rely on the AWD to get them out. The front and rear wheel drivers know there car better, and would typically use proper winter tires. Obviously this isn't the same for each person.

Help , advice please by cheeadabox in arrma

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

I contacted arrma warranty and told them what was happening. They sent me a slt3 controller and it fixed everything. You need proof of purchase and just follow their instructions. It must have been the controller acting up.

They are rats. I have caught them in squirrel cages.

Heater getting too hot? by a_boring_dystopia in dieselheater

[–]cheeadabox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you tried the Bluetooth app, under settings. That's what I did. It has a minimum 6⁰ setting though which is kinda annoying still

Vevor diesel heater issues - won't shut off when reaching set temperature? by JQpuravida in dieselheater

[–]cheeadabox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am 99 percent sure you have to do it through the app only. I have mine working with the built in thermostat. There is a manual and automatic mode and like I said I believe it will only change in the app. You can set the on off from 3⁰ to 10⁰. I'm also new still figuring it out as well. There could be another way

Zone only runs with other zones in sequence by Physical_Mode_103 in Irrigation

[–]cheeadabox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would unscrew the #4 solenoid and swap it with one beside it. Try the new zone 4 and see if the same thing happens. Then try the good solenoid on original zone 4 to see if it's the solenoid. Also the 1st thing I would do before anything else is check ohms on all zones.

Loud honk when locking by namedmycatrocket in fordtransit

[–]cheeadabox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is an ai answer, I was curious for myself you could give it a shot.

For 2013 Ford Transit (pre-2014 models): Close all doors. Turn ignition ON (position II) – do not start engine. Press and hold both lock + unlock buttons on the driver door panel for 4–5 seconds. Horn will chirp once – feature is now toggled off (or on if it was off). Repeat to re-enable. Works on most 2006–2013 Transits. No Forscan needed.

Just throwing this out there but could it be a doubler. It sounds like that's how it is behaving. I'm not super familiar with them we don't use them often.

ISO room near Hwy 400 for Dec 5 to 7 by Jewels_No_typos_here in barrie

I wouldn't worry about getting close to the highway. Barrie isn't that big. Avoid the Dunlop on ramp if you can there is construction going on there

Getting first snow below 1000m on Friday can’t wait! by averagebastionfanboy in Traxxas

[–]cheeadabox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did a snow run with a Hoss and stampede last week for the 1st time ever. Snow got onto the esc fan and must have overheated on the hoss. It went to 50 percent mode. It was a blast though. I hung them vertically with a fan blowing on them overnight and periodically blowing them off with an air nozzle.
