First Mod Day of 2013

Oh that sounds reassuring.

Me no drive stick shift right now. Would like to join to watch and learn but I need someone to drive muh truhhck.

 

If you guys need help with the wiring....shoot me a text if you have my number or a PM and I can probably help you out over the phone.

 

Lol, sounds like it doesn't start right now...

 

Wait your truck is stick but you dont know how to drive a manual?

Just practice practice practice! Thats what I'm having my gf do so she can drive mine.. although I may need a new clutch now...

 

Long story short, I tried replacing a switch and accidentally shorted the wires. A few of the amps blew and they have been replaced, but there is no power coming to my 7.5 ACC fuse slot, causing my stereo, clock, and power outlet to not work. I have a diagram of which wire to look at but since it was my dumb self this all happened, it's probably best for someone with more electrical knowledge to help me.

 

No no no...I learned how to drive in a stick. But thanks for the words of encouragement!

I had an accident on Monday earrrrly morning and had to call 911 because I couldn't move my legs.

I can stand and sit now and walk really slow (being bad and not using crutches) but I can't push on the clutch because it puts pressure on my messed up disk that I almost burst.

 

you shoulda told me! i woulda brought you soup

 

At the ER they pumped me up with so many drugs it scared me. I have never been so inebriated. It honestly scared me. I don't drink or smoke or get high so when they gave me vicodin, percocet and two injections of dilaudid (which is stronger than morphine) in a matter of three hours I swore I was going to die of an over dose.

Even the nurse said that they are going to stop the meds because it was too much too close together. Yet the pain still was there.

Soup would have been nice, Eric - you are such a sweetie - but I didn't eat for almost three days because it took that long for the meds to get out of my system and for my head to be clear enough to even be hungry. I lost 10 lbs in those three days.

It was awful.

Poor mamatruck

 

Aren't you guys in the same area? I'd have him pick you up and come on over.

I already have my truck torn asunder trying to get me new stereo to work, I had it all working properly before I put it in then once it was all in the dash it wasn't doing what it was suppose to be doing. I pulled it all out to make sure connections didn't come undone but everything is connected and I can't figure it out. Something with the mhl connection to my android and since its so new no one really has any help on the subject so I'm done to unplugging and plugging it back up in hopes it starts working again.

 

Ummm... fuse?

Hell iono. That seems the be the general answer to all things electrical. Kinda like 42.

Eric is a couple (three?) towns over from me. I've never taken my truck to any meets or anything and I would like to take it this time just to prove I actually own a truck.

 

So we aren't doing the food thing? Other than someone picking up egg rolls?

 

Well if your coming I would recommend bring something to eat and drink, or you can grab something from the store near by, I also know a great Chinese restaurant that delivers, they don't have as good of egg rolls as king egg roll but they do have family sized ordering (trays of food).

I wouldn't be opposed to doing something food related maybe just snack stuff though, I mainly want to get some stuff done on my truck and help others do the same, but you gotta eat sometime!

I don't think it's a fuse because I'm getting power from the mhl cable, just no connection to the head unit through the hdmi cable

 

Oh no! Hope you're doing alright! Best wishes to get better soon!
Scary stuff... Yikes..

 

Officially out. I gotta get an alignment, change my oil, and other small things to prep for the Hollister run on Sunday. And Vacaville is kinda deep so I'm gonna save my pennies on gas and do everything more local. Thanks for hosting though

 

just fyi alignment is usually better after a wheeling trip

 

yea well i didnt get any alignments after all the summer wheeling we did, so I'm getting one now... and after

 

Anyone willing to pick some tires/wheels up for me tomorrow in Vacaville? I'm not 100% sure, but the guy needs them picked up by 9:30 am. I would pitch on gas and hopefully someone in the South Bay could bring them back. Let me know and thanks!

 

I will have some mini donuts for those that arrive early enough.
