    Perhaps the belt fell off? It happened to me a year or so ago and I went to YouTube to see how to put it back on; fairly easy.

    Belt or the belt tensioner pulley...most likely...Does it sound like the drum motor is running and it just doesn't spin? Easy fix

    So i finally got around to getting my state inspection done today.

    Failed.

    Cleaned my battery last week and disconnected the terminals. They thought i was trying go hide an emissions code and failed me. Told me i need to drive 120 miles and come back again.

    Ever since living in NM i’ve dreaded the idea of inspections. They basically ransack your vehicle, make u pay $35- cash! And it’s all to “keep you safe”. Sounds like the mob to me.

    LUCKILY...I reset my OBDII all the time for an EVAP CAN error every time it rains...Previous owner must have OVER topped off the tank and shorted the emissions evaporation canister...Easier to just reset once in a while than replace...$30 hand held at Harbor Freight when they have a sale

    Time to find a new place. My guys take cards and never to anything more to the truck than drive it into the bay and back out. I’d raise hell if they were going through my interior, that’s never part of the deal.
