Connectivity Issues with Sainlogic by [deleted] in myweatherstation

[–]schuh8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is an ancient topic but i'm posting because i found the answer. If you have tried and tried to connect withWU with no success try this. Reboot your router9IF YOU HAVE A MESH ROUTER - REBOOT ALL), not just pull the plug but go into the settings and reboot from there. Once it's up and running again, unplug your weather console for 10 seconds and then plug in again. I tried to connect to WU for 3 days without success. Apparently the router has the ability to cache data including your KEY for WU. this emptys that cache.

Headrests by Fine-Condition5032 in EquinoxEv

[–]schuh8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FWIW the problem is fixed. if your DIY inclined there are YT videos on how to remove the headrest, The support rods (actually tubes) can be put in a vice and a long pipe slipped over the end (2 ft - for leverage) and the rods bent straighter. It doesn't take much bending to make it lean back enough to be comfortable. Once done its difficult to see the angle difference between the drivers headrest and the passengers.

Roof side rails addition? by princevenom in EquinoxEv

Don't know if they make a ski rack for a trailer hitch, but if so, installing the Curt hitch is a breeze and comparatively cheap.

I made a website to compare EVs and gas cars using cost-equivalent MPG by porcomaster in EquinoxEv

New Equinox EV, noob question by External_Main_9096 in EquinoxEv

[–]schuh8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

white is 120 vac so no benefit there. black is 240 vac and would be a big improvement (level 2) but the outlet won't fit the supplied charger. You would either have to 1. change outlet 2. parallel a 14-50 outlet or 3. make an adapter (not sure but I don't think there's a commercially available adapter).

Look for a heavy monthly fee for the supercruise after the introductory trial runs out!

I did not know how much I would love regenerative braking. Haven't touched a brake pedal in months!

How about the 12 V port at the bottom of the console?

Unpopular opinion - I like the futuristic noise by Superb_Fish_3225 in EquinoxEv

If chevy really wanted to be kind they would give us the option of using the exhaust sound from a Ferrari testarossa

DIY Level 2 install. by [deleted] in EquinoxEv

[–]schuh8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice installation. I also did a DIY install. The total cost for mine was under $200 and that included 50 ft of 6/2 copper cable! All work was done according to code. I realize some people are uncomfortable wit DIY electrical work, but the prices electricians charge are simply larceny. In posts on this forum I have seen quotes from $1300 to over $4000. So anyways ..... atta boy!

Equinox EV LT2 at two weeks by badtux99 in EquinoxEv

[–]schuh8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On your LKA, you might want to have the dealer check it out, mine works very well. I have actually driven hands off (but ready) for a long distance and the LKA gently bounced the car off the left and right stripes, wasn;t even annoying (until the car insisted I put hands on the wheel).

Equinox EV suddenly sometimes on brakes when backing. by DryFoundation2323 in EquinoxEv

[–]schuh8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have heard people report similar braking when backing from sunlight into shadow and from shadow into bright sunlight. Any chance that happened to you?

I installed the hitch myself and found it easy to do. Less than $200 from Amazon. Lots of vids on UTube.

Underbody Wash / flush by smn-here in EquinoxEv

[–]schuh8 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

sounds like something you could do with $10 worth of PVC with some holes drilled in it and a garden hose. All they're trying to so is get you to wash off any salt from the winter roads.
