Dashboard lights...while I am checking out car forums....

[RICHARD]

OK - I went to the place I bought the bulbs to ask:
a. If they were sensitive to touch, like halogen ones. Answer: No
b. If the fuse controlled ALL the dash lights. Answer - yes, so if it was the fuse, one would not be working.

So, a suggested option was to clean the contacts and try again. Happy, I drove home, took the dash apart (had the kit with me), left the car to go get my contact cleaner from my apt, realized I had locked car AND apartment keys in my car, called AMA...

Anyway, did a good cleaning and put the bulbs back in. I THINK they are working - will have to wait until it is dark.

Just for the heck of it - gave all the ribbon connectors and bulbs a wee shot of contact cleaner.

Stay tuned for updates!

Dang woman!

Do you change oil and plugs, too!

Well, heck I could - if I had a place to change them! Open air parking lot in winter is not great...and no doubt the Condo Board would frown at 'auto work' being done in the 'common area'.

I replace faucets, washers, o-rings, toilet parts (including gaskets).

Gosh - maybe I should give up on the dating sites and just submit resumes! LOL

I WOULD have to be shown how to do plugs and oil change - get a filter wrench and a plug puller (sometimes old tweezers just don't cut it ), but it ain't rocket science!

Well, if you can hold on to your tool bag maybe you can do some rocket science work on the space shuttle?
