Repairing a Chip in a Windshield
My husband discovered a chip in my windshield, and since the car is 12 years old and on it's last legs, I decided to repair it the best I could instead of replacing it. After 3 months it's still holding strong!

    Same washer. Our issue is our drain goes up 10ft into the ceiling to dump into the blackwater line, and our check valve got stuck open which means God knows what found its way back into the washer tub. I'm looking at getting a small pump for the outside to help deal with this difference in height that I don't think the little plastic pump is built for.

    As a 40 year professional painter,ALWAYS AND I MEAN ALWAYS,use a high quality primer for any woodwork,counter,cabinet,floor,ceramic project and SAND,SAND,SAND prior to applying your primer.I'm really pissed off these kits don't recommended this,as your paint project will peel off in weeks or scratch with a fingernail without a good sanding and primer...and TEST,TEST,TEST before starting your project...ENJOY!

  • @daledennis3599
    @daledennis3599 6 днів тому

    Overall very well done, but one (constructive) comment: As you connected the wiring on the new ballast, you connected the black and white (power) wires before you connected the yellows on the other end of the fixture. You did have the power off, so *technically,* this shouldn't be an issue, but any good electrician will tell you...always connect everything else first BEFORE you connect the power. You may not have known which are the power wires vs. the others, but the black and white wires are the ones that carry the electrical power from your circuit breaker. It does appear that the incoming "hot" power wires in your case were red instead of black, and that may not be uncommon, but is not normal practice. Usually the "hot" wire for an AC circuit is black. One more note: It is always a good idea, before taking wiring apart like that, to use a Non-Contact Voltage Tester (a short wand that detects if voltage is present) to check the incoming power wires to make certain they are turned off. This is a safety item that, again, may not be required when you KNOW which circuit breaker controls your light fixture, but I always use one just in case. That way I know I'm safe.

    Cleaned my kenmore drain out just like you did and had my wife pour several cups of very hot water down that little drain hole while i watched from the back for good flow into the drain pan.....all appeared clean and clear...3 weeks later....2 inches of ice in the bottom.....im very frustrated!!!!

    • @ChickFixUSA
      @ChickFixUSA 14 днів тому

      Does your fridge/freezer seem warmer than it should be? I'm wondering if your coils are freezing over and then thawing, causing a puddle to form at the bottom of the freezer. If so, this could mean that you have a coolant leak.

    • @keithbrown8814
      @keithbrown8814 14 днів тому

      Both fridge and freezer are very, very cold....0° freezer and 30° fridge.....the drain hole is once again frozen solid with ice.......do you know if the freezer drain is supposed to be a straight, smooth conduit to the drain tube underneath.......?......the drain on my freezer is not straight but is offset with a little lip inside which obviously collects water and freezes and starts the buildup of ice.....I'm thinking about a copper wire attached to the heater element and running it down the drain hole to keep it open......any thoughts???.....thx!
