Robbie Stewart Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 except this is a blue screen of death, with no screen. it's just invisible blue death! they've fixed the software for the Fiat500, but not the lower volume models. Look closely: 0x000000cz DRIVER_UNLOADED_WITHOUT_CANCELLING_PENDING_OPERATION
Grease_Monkey Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 Isuzu does not have this problem. The Power is on the left, and the Volume control is the dial on the right, making control thereof very intuitive. In fact, it is so close to the steering wheel, I have resorted to using the dial rather than the steering wheel control, as it is faster that way. I use the steering controls to change tracks / channels. My music is streamed via bluetooth from my phone, which is mounted to to a air vent mounted magnetic phone clip thingamabob. Works a charm. That, combined with "OK Google" means I never touch it while driving. 2018-05-15 12_44_11-Clipboard.pngMuch more logical! My Ranger is the pre-facelift XL so it does not even have controls on the steering wheel to compensate! Man, sometimes I miss my Golf 6...
Kalahari Vegmot Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 Why, oh why, do power tool companies keep on putting these pathetic things on their tools??????
Hairy Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 Here I am often guilty just because I don't switch the bluetooth on my phone on.I keep it off as it eats your battery having it on unnecessarilythen one can save even more battery by not answering the phone while driving at all
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 Plug.jpgWhy, oh why, do power tool companies keep on putting these pathetic things on their tools??????Rather those than the round ones. ???? Still. Gimme a 3 prong anyway.
Grebel Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 Jeez what engine is that? Never seen a starter there before. The starter on the older model isuzu kb sits under the exhaust manifold. Only way to get to it is remove the manifold. Makes a simple job a nightmare. The same guy must have positioned the alternator.... The battery, turbo intake piping, auxilliary drive belts and aircon compressor need to be removed before you can even see the holding bolts for the alternator. Then some of the bolts need to be removed from underneath before you can remove it from the top... Auto electrician quoted me 3 hours labour to do the job. I thought he was crazy. Said I would remove it myself. First time it took me 4 hours to get it out... and an hour to put it back. It's been in and out three times since (rectifier, bearings, and rear seal). Doesn't take me 4 hour anymore though
Grebel Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 Plug.jpgWhy, oh why, do power tool companies keep on putting these pathetic things on their tools?????? That's the first thing that gets changed!
Ed-Zulu Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 Plug.jpgWhy, oh why, do power tool companies keep on putting these pathetic things on their tools??????Purely for safety reasons, you can yank the two prong out in split seconds, the three pronged not so fast...and there you have it!
Grease_Monkey Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 Talking about plugs - multi plugs in which you can only use every second plug point because they are not spaced far enough apart!
Sepia Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 Plug.jpgWhy, oh why, do power tool companies keep on putting these pathetic things on their tools??????Safety reasons I hear.Easier to pull out if you just yank on the cable. Imagine slipping with an angle grinder in your hand on lock - the two pin plug just pulls out easier than three pins. Not saying it is good as I change my plugs over asap.
Sepia Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 Purely for safety reasons, you can yank the two prong out in split seconds, the three pronged not so fast...and there you have it!Beat me to it!
Ed-Zulu Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 I'll show you my left index finger caught in a Makita belt sander with a three pronged plug...I pulled the wires out the plug, but by then the skin was off to the bone. Never changed plugs again
Patchelicious Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 Wat's wrong with yours?Its not a matter of function, its a matter of location.
Long Wheel Base Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 Purely for safety reasons, you can yank the two prong out in split seconds, the three pronged not so fast...and there you have it!You also don't need an earth connected to the grid with a power tool. But probably more because of your reason.
