@eon_blue remember what I said about neck guards. Looks like a lot of leagues are starting to do it.

Well that sucks

My save file is gone from Link's Awakening; not a recent one but from maybe a few years ago

Battery must be dead

 

Yeah it's pretty wild how far and wide that story has spread. It's such a small thing to wear, I support them enforcing it especially in youth leagues. Such a tragic accident what happened to Johnson last week. I saw a video of it and it was awful. Pints of blood just shooting out of his neck instantly all over the ice

There are a lot of people trying to say it was an intentional kick too by the other player, which I think is bullshit. People will say and believe anything to try and stir shit up

 

Got flagged down on the road to my daughter's school this morning, all brake lights on the 4runner are out. For all 3 to go out at once it's gotta be the brake light switch right? Seems too unlikely all bulbs would go out at the same time

 

Hmm, yeah seems likely but I'd buy a single bulb or probe the socket with a multimeter first before ordering one. Cause it might just have a bad ground, toasted fuse, or a bunch of bad bulbs. I forgot if the the third brake light on a runner is LED or incandescent.

 

It's a 96 so I'm betting it's not LED, but I'll check. Read a few threads that just removing and cleaning the switch works a lot of the time on these old jalopies, gonna try that first

 

My LC is a 93 and it's a full LED bar weirdly...
I added a flasher cause people sleep drive in AZ and it was getting close a few times to being in a crash.

People that say that have never played hockey. Nobody is out there trying to kill another player. I agree with you all youth leagues should require them. Its not like you are even going to notice that you are wearing it when your on the ice.

 

Yeah the whole incident happened so fast after those two collided, I don't see how the other guy could have had the time to think to himself in those milliseconds "hey, I can use this collision to swing my back leg up and kill this other dude skating by at the same time"....people on the Internet just want so badly to believe in bullshit conspiracies

 

My 98 is old school. I have had them short at the bulb from a leak and lots of water. Simply sand down with emory or steel wool.

 

It's a pretty divided division so far. The golden knights can't lose, the sharks can't win, and a mix in between. Canucks are playing well but can't get to the top spot when the knights are doing unbelievably well.

 

Made a friend in the parking lot this morning.

 

nice hawk

 

I think I need heavier coils

 

Replaced the bulbs and cleaned the contacts on the switch wiring but no dice. Gonna get a parts store brake switch and see if that works.

 

Have you tried shorting the plug first to see if the lights come on?

 

Keep in mind my understanding of electronics is about limited to plugging cords into outlets, how does one do this exactly

 

Unplug the connector from the brake switch and use a paper clip to jump one terminal in the plug to the other. Lights should come on

 

Coils turned, truck as a little bit of rack


I have like 2" of thread showing on the shock body.

probably order some coils for the next rebuild next summer
