    This video breaks it all down. It’s a really good video.  I’ve got the same shit going on, just different errors flashing. (Different ground strap, there are several) 

    https://youtu.be/8CFZcO4NDhI?si=Wt6UXSeaUsTvPhDX

    I already had an appointment booked at the dealership to get the sensors and modules looked at, and they just want to swap parts out, collect a couple grand, and call it a day. Poke and hope, just like the video says. The shop it is at is a much better place. All the sensors are connected by common grounds. It’s much more likely that those are bad rather than multiple modules all crapping out at the same time. The ground strap is an uninsulated braided wire. It’s a known issue for those to corrode, especially in the rust belt. A drop voltage test will easily confirm it. I’d rather try to fix it with some scrap wire first before bringing it back to the dealership. 
    Pass the god damn butter.

    Update - ground wires confirmed. Also the fuse block it attached to was also corroded. But none of the sensors and modules needed to be replaced like the dealership claimed. Pointless $2k dealership appointment avoided.

    Do you have a warranty on it? Surprised it doesn’t void it. 
  • Jobe_Wan_KenobiJobe_Wan_Kenobi Posts: 19,659 moneytalker
    We bought an 100,000 mile extended warranty but not everything is covered. Transmission is, electrical is not. The warranty is also up in less than 10,000 miles.

    Accidentally left a pallet of hardware back at the warehouse today while loading the truck because we were stressed the fuck out figuring out how to fit 16 footers, 5x12s, and a huge amount of full 4x8 units on the 28ft x 8ft truck bed in the order they were supposed to be delivered. Realized it at that stop in the afternoon and texted my managers letting them know. Got a text back from the goofy ass new logistics manager who couldn't be damned to even set aside time for an in-person performance review back in the fall, "Not good. We need to make sure we double check we have everything before we leave. That’s on you the driver and the warehouse."

    Idk if I was just hungry or if it's because it was already a shitty day but I had "ok, I'm not solo-lifting any sheets at hand deliveries now" typed out. We're only required to "hand-off" material from the truck, sliding sheets out towards the customer for them to carry and put away if they don't have a forklift. But I frequently will unload smaller deliveries myself if the scheduling doesn't work for us to unload it together.

    Bit my tongue and instead just responded "Discernibly."

    “That’s helpful, Randy”

    I’ve been quoting that stupid Geiko caveman game night commercial a lot. Give it a try, it’s fun.

    Lost a dear friend to cancel last night. 

    Pretty much knew it was coming for a while. Still happened fast. Only been about a year since his diagnosis. 

    Still sucks though. RIP friend.

    Condolences bro. Cancer will always be a weird, not sensitive, subject for me. One day I woke up at 25 diagnosed wit cancer. It still feels like a fever dream that never happened lmao.

    Went to the ER. Been having stomach issues. Diverticulitis. Intestine infection basically. 

    Doctor told me she had never had a  patient she's seen that showed zero signs of infection but had one lol. No fever, no nothing. 

    Anyways, gotta do a 24 hour fast. It's gay lmao

    Lmfao.

    Man, I've kind of felt like ahit on and off for months. Doctor said it's possible I've had an infection for a long time. 

    Been on antibiotics for like 4 hours, and it's legit the most energy and best if felt in months. Maybe an entire year lol.

    Death is so weird. 

    The permanence of it just doesn't ever feel real to me. Any time I'm at a funeral and near the casket I just feel like they are going to pop up and start talking. 

    He notoriously made gay jokes about me. So much so that it was relentless and when I first got to know him made me uncomfortable. 

    He was one of the nicest guys I knew though. As we became friends, he eventually dated a lady that my mom lived with. 

    We never actually met together with my mom, and him and me, but every time I saw him he'd make a gay jokes and then ask me how my mom was doing. Every time lol. 

    Gonna miss ya Tim. RIP buddy.

    “He was a good man. He kinda thought I was gay tho but today, I’m gonna let that slide. RIP Tim.”
