    Wow !! , Never seen so many weather alerts / warnings like this in quite some time . also most the streets the cross thru a debris basin / flood channel are all barricaded and all the streets have flooded signs up . Guess the city / county is better prepared from last Thursdays storm . This new storm is supposed to dump up to 6" in my immediate area starting very early tomorrow morning

    Winter storm warning and high wind warnings ....

    Cool.
    Made a note. Will have a look next time I'm on truck.





    On another note. Don't want to jam up the page with videos but was just watching an old video of Quinn Sullivan and Buddy Guy. Quinn was 8 at the time. I think he's 17 now?
    Kid is unbelievable.

    I hope they are filling the reservoirs and not just letting it flow out. I heard the No Cal reservoirs are doing very well.

    Not sure about down here in Socal if they're doing that or not . The ground here right now is super saturated and can't hold any more moisture

    We've got Alvalance warnings , Mud / debris flow warnings its going to be a very ugly storm

    This what I did :
    I installed a Priority Start ( I have 4 things wired to constant hot and wanted to protect the battery from draw down if I left them on) I ran 10 ga to from priority start to 40 Amp breaker then to a 6 slot blue sea fuse box to that is hooked LED lights in my cap, 12 acc in my cap and a spare for future use. In the Cab I have a 12v Acc plug and a dual USB plug all on the 6 Slot fuse box. With Diode's to prevent reverse flow power ( had to since the 3 switches in the cap are wired to a single LED warning light in the cab to tell me I left them on). Everything works as it should with the exception of when using the ACC plug in the cab my remote lock or unlock fails most of the time. Using the USB plugs no problem. I narrowed it down to the 12v Acc plug after much experimentation. I disconnected it from fuse box and ran a wire from the battery to the acc socket exposed to ensure no wires were screwed up or pinched etc and nope still does it. Someone else here also had the problem https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/unusual-problem-08-tacoma.368624/#post-10225494. I had someone here who does a lot of electrical on Tacoma's stumped too , I am not worried about I can live with it. I do not have pictures handy not sure if there is any my album I did that mod a long time ago.

    These storms remind me of the 1982 - 83 , 1987 -88 and 2010 Super El Nino events

    Thanks, that's awesome work! Hope you can find the gremlin that's causing it! I wish I had a answer. I have a lot of respect for you peeps that add the auxiliary fuse box to our trucks. It's one of my weaknesses.
    I added a mini - low profile 1Amp Diode, and a inline single fuse holder to my 4 wire push switch. The drawing called for it. I had to get creative for that one! Lol!
