But there’s no pairs. Every wire goes somewhere else.

 

Whats the procedure for flushing the power steering system? Disconnect return line, turkey baster to suck out the reservoir, turn from lock to lock while adding/ removing fluid? My fluid is pretty brown and the wheel is kinda stiff. @BartMaster1234 I know this is what you joined this place for.

 

@Sperrunner

Also I am excellent at wire braiding. I made a computer floppy drive musical array controlled by two Arduino Uno microcontrollers controlled by custom code I adapted in the Netbeans IDE that converts MIDI files to signal stepper motors can interpret. I created the wiring harnesses that are responsible for power and signal distribution out of 22GA wire and crimped DuPont terminals and connectors.

The stepper motor on each Floppy Drive emits a certain frequency when it moves, or in this case, a certain note. Put sixteen of those together and you have a musical array played by computer parts.





I’m proud of this one.

 

I am the wrong person to be asking. I fucked up when I did mine long ago haha.

But yes, that is how you should do it. Make sure your truck is on jackstands while you do this.

I’ve gotten better at power steering systems though. I replaced the pump and reservoir on my friend’s 1994 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.0l a few months ago.

When I flushed that system, I took the return line and plumbed it into a Gatorade bottle while starting the Jeep as I simultaneously powered new fluid into the reservoir while the pump sucked new fluid in. I did this until it was clear.

I didn’t have this much foresight three years ago when I did it on my truck. Haha.

 

Everything huh? Intercooler, oil return lines, etc etc etc

 

It should go in the ways of Ferrari and kill itself with fire.

Are you surprised?

 

Same. I have one more class and I’m heading back home.

Have to get all these orders out.

 

Did you ever stop to think...... "Why?"

 

Christ. All industrial software looks the same. It’s like it was designed in 1995 and never updated.

 

Apparently the same goes for the hardware....

 

I did stop. My first iteration at the time was only eight drives. And then I asked myself “Why... not sixteen?”

So I ordered a rifle case and eight more floppy drives and wired them in.

This isn’t my video, but here’s an example. A far more complex and intricate example.

 

I'm guessing the smart phone beside the "Laptop" has more capability....

 

This is what happens when hubris literally replaces testosterone.

 

I mean... can it hurt them to make the GUI look a little better?

 

Kinda... yeah...

I mean. seat belts catching on fire? Like WTF?

 

Okay that looks better. The pic from earlier made it look like some outdated program with little flow.

 

I saw some negativity surrounding soccer moms and their taste in 4Runners. I love soccer moms, choosey moms that chose Jiff and I don't think I've ever seen an ugly one driving a 4Runner.

 

Ford seat belt recall, no big deal compared to the dumpster fire at Tesla today.
