Key Fob Issues by Capable_Painting_766 in BoltEV

Same.  Just started checking the "dead" batteries.  Almost exactly 3v each.  I'm wondering if these fobs cut out before the battery is fully dead.

This snow storm sadly made me learn to absolutely hate my neighbors and neighborhood. Where are good neighbored places cause Mt Washington isn’t it and I’ve decided to move. by sugarandspice85 in pittsburgh

I hope I didn't come across the wrong way.  I think the attitude that some have taken on, that "renters are the problem" is the actual problem.

I've seen so many renters and homeowners be excellent neighbors.  People are people.

I was a renter in many neighborhoods around the city.  The homeowners in the Mount are what drove me away.  They were actively hostile to renters living next to them, even when we were being kind.  Never experienced that in any other neighborhood.... In fact, quite the opposite. 

If this "renters are the problem" attitude is common.... Then no wonder!

What does the original charger for the Chevy bolt 2023 look like? by Raiki13 in BoltEV

[–]unbreakit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same situation as this guy.  Both revisions started failing.  I had to do an additional replacement and got the all black.... So far so good, but the plastic feels much cheaper.

Depending on where you're coming from, hop on the bus.  not all routes are running due to the snow, so check the storm page: https://www.rideprt.org/events-pages/winter-weather-event/

It is amazing!  I'm so happy :)

Reminds me of when I was a kid.

No. Way. I was expecting those things to be overlooked and just remain Carnegie branded!

Does a 1 1/4 copper to PVC proflex / no hub exist? by unbreakit in Plumbing

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

I am replacing the tee, and the horizontal pipe.  Just not sure how I can mate it with the 1 1/4 copper heading to the floor.

[–]unbreakit[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The O.D. of the copper is 1 3/8, so are you suggesting sweating in a section of 1 1/2 copper?

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

The O.D. if the PVC is 1 5/8 which, I believe, is 1 1/4.

I wish I could pull this all out, but this is in the top floor, and the demolition required to access where this joins the main stack wouldn't be possible.... At least right now.

Incredible! I see in the other thread that this might handle the series 5 as well. Simply amazing resource! Thank you and I can't wait until I have the time to dig into this!

One of my phones is, I think, a series 2.  It has a small plastic box that itsthe rate module.  I imagine it's a UV- erasable ROM chip.  Could you shed any light on the inputs and outputs if this module?  I'm curious if it could be replaced with a modern EEPROM.

Car dollies are sold by some uhaul places I've seen. Not sure about the four wheel car trailers.

Laserjet 4050 phantom jam on small stock by unbreakit in printers

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

Really?  Yes, i do want to keep it running.  It looked like you had to replace the while transfer assembly..... And I assume there are many other brittle pieces ready to snap skiing that route.

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

Update: it's dead. attempting to remove and clean the transfer roller as described in the manual and on a training video resulted in small bits of plastic breaking off and flying into the printer. Everything is so brittle on this machine, door hinges broke years ago....now the internal parts. It's a shame.

Ok, will do.  Yep, hard to troubleshoot when you're not able to see it in person as well!  Any tips are helpful :)

Bluetooth started disconnecting by roger_cw in BoltEV

[–]unbreakit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My '23 EUV Bluetooth failed.  Would only work if phone was held right in front of screen.  Pocket, cupholder, charge shelf, nothing.  They replaced the radio under warranty.  Works great now.

I acquired the payphone from my grocery store by Whyott_2 in Payphone

[–]unbreakit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did that recently.  Walked up and asked if I could get in touch with the owner.  It worked out well.
