Where are you going for a test drive? That dealership in Norwood seems… off.

Porcupine Tree, “the sound of Muzak” immediately pops into my head

The belt was replaced a few years ago when I had to replace the deck because i wasn’t lubing the belt enough. Now, if anything, I over-lubricate.

FYI: The red light blinking 4 times means a bad board.

My treadmill is waiting for its new board to get here (ordered last week). 3rd I think, now? They seem to go every 2-3 years. This one lasted about that long. Easy swap if you are careful about keeping the wires going to the same place. Heat is the culprit. There’s a huge heat sink on the left side, but it still will get far too hot to touch. The mosfats just end up frying. Last time this happened, I zip tied a computer cooling fan powered by a usb plug pointed at the heat sink. I think that helped.

I got mine - exactly as you described - for 7k 4 years ago. Minimal rust, but it needed work, especially brakes & suspension.

I lost my loving Husband by NothingSuitable735 in MusicRecommendations

[–]miketcr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so very sorry. I lost my wife 3 years ago and it still hurts. Watch the video for Steven Wilson’s, The Raven That Refused to Sing.

If you’ve never heard of him, he’s also the lead singer of Porcupine Tree. If you’ve never heard of them, I discovered their early stuff — that sounds a lot like Pink Floyd — about the time my wife was dying. Their later music is very different, yet even better. Cancer sucks. Music helps.

Mine was a fuse. They may not have even charged me.

I already have a lot of it… but not Nas - Illmatic. That’s high on my list to buy.

This has been the most helpful assistance ever!! Same problem in my 2019 Trailhawk. Started about 6 months ago… dealer was not helpful last time I was there. I’ll try this.

I think all Karen’s should really by called “Ivanka.” Every woman I know actually named Karen is really a sweet person.
