I second rodent damage. time for the top to be taken off and check the wiring underneath

Looks like its time to drain the tank, lots of water there. Also a good time to check the filler cap to make sure its not leaking

my maintenance does not start from zero and i always turn off the main breaker. Must be something wrong with your internal battery that stores the memory, all the units I have bought never had the batteries hooked up and sat in storage for 10 years and were still only a day off and all memory...

Just looking back at the pictures i guess i need to adjust the clock setting or I am just that good at traveling to the future and back

Getting ready for Winter started a little early tonight. Car Accident took out the power for about 3 hours. after about an hour i decided to break out the 1040 as i have never had it hooked to the house. 30 minutes making up a power cord and got it hooked up. As it wasnt 100 degrees or -30...

Driving daily does not mean its is good condition, i am 2 years in and still replacing parts on a 1997 that has 5000 miles on it. lots of age on these trucks and all the rubber parts are just old. be prepared to spend about $500 a month for a while

See my original question

Its only an m6 bolt so that might work if it is small enough but thats some pretty small bits

I work on a lot of mep 531a units and it is very easy to break the fly housing cover bolts. I like to replace the rubber vibration dampeners when needed, but the one i am working on has a pre broken bolt. I tried last night with channel locks as enough is sticking out to try and spin it out...
