What did you BREAK this week?

[rontaki]

My "hyper tough" chinese bar clamp broke just now, but I managed to make a dolly for my new stump grinder. View attachment 4279237View attachment 4279238

At least they were right about the "hype" part...

Backing up our MH to an electrical panel Oct. 13, forgot the panels were angled to the parking spot. Bright sunlight was reflecting off the panel doors. Backed into one and did approx. $3K damage to the RR corner of the rear cap, for which replacement caps are NLA.
Now to locate a good fiberglass repair shop with a roof high enough to back the MH into and still have working room.

I’m going to show my acronym ignorance, what is a MH?

Somehow I broke my grease gun. I just put a new tube in a few weeks ago. Needed it Friday to grease the tractor. Got a couple fittings done and then it felt weird and wouldn’t pump. So I bought this battery powered one from Amazon. It takes dewalt batteries.

There's a What did you BUY this week? thread, so why not this?

I broke my 45 year old MIG welder.

I believe after 45years it deserves a "break"

My wife did for the first time this year turn on the heat and the blower motor didnt work,but luckily before retiring from hvac i kept parts on the shelf for my unit including the $500 ECM blower motor and 30min of my time,seems after retirement everything breaks on a fixed income

 

[kioti28527]

Yeah, I certainly got my monies worth. I sold it on FB, for $25 a couple days ago so it may have more life in it...

Did you golf club swing it several times, both directions? This forces an air bubble towards the back of the tube and "unlocks" the air lock.

A sweat...mowing the lawn in 87º fall heat wave

No, something internal happened. It suddenly got hard to pump, like the o ring on the piston rolled off.

I had just replaced the fitting end and hose. This new one should be much easier to use one handed.

I broke my trailer, again.

Apparently the back up camera in my 2020 f150 work truck. Picture is fuzzy for 5 seconds than blank screen. Sounds expensive

My wife & I bought identical Mustangs and last week received letters about the back-up camera saying Ford will fix it free. A recall hopefully applies to your F150. It talked about fuzzy & going blank, probably same camera.
We haven't noticed problems but almost never drive them.

I called, they said mine wasnt on recall list

Try here. This thread give a part number but, the guys truck is a 2018. Still in the same gen as yours. Not saying it is your issue but, that is where I'd go if I were to have the same issue.

Called who? Dealer would just look up VIN for coverage.

Call corporate office and plead your case. Maybe cover parts only, but still worth a try.

 

[grsthegreat]

I called my local dealer. He looked up vin number, and it is t covered in recall.

Besides, the backup camera is such an essential safety feature that it is mandated by the feds. Therefore, they might be required to have a longer warranty, like emissions controls do.
