mmmmm...beer 691 Posted March 29, 2017 Just did this and it worked. Wife's 2013 Ford Exploder's windshield wipers would shut off regardless if they were in the off position. Ordered the OEM part on the ebay for $28 shipped. Got here today... 15 mins tops and most of that was looking for that little star torque bit to release the part. What would your shop charge me to have done this Sux? Once I started the car up (secretly praying please work... please work)... and it works great I's all like, "FOCK YEAH IT WORKS! CAUSE I FOCKIN FIX THINGS!" Any similar experiences lately boys? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jerryskids 5,198 Posted March 29, 2017 I totally agree that that is a great feeling. We've got a side by side fridge that was freezing out the veggie drawers a few months back; I diagnosed it as a problem with the gear which opens a little door to the freezer to control the temp in the drawer. Ordered the part and it came... with no directions. Youtube phayle and I said fock it, let's just start taking this bad boy apart$#@! In the end, success, and it didn't take any trips to Home Depot either. I am man, I fix stuff. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BunnysBastatrds 1,914 Posted March 29, 2017 Went to happy hour after work. Some young punk started staring me down because I smirked at him and his tshitrt that read "Ya Me B!tch". When he approached me I stood up. All 6'3 and 240 lbs of me to his 6'0 180. Fawker showed his peacock feathers to his friends and bartender (Mechelle 36 D) and coward away. That was fun.....b!tch shirt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fandandy 3,311 Posted March 29, 2017 My mailbox wouldn't stay shut and it's across the street and is a giant pain in the ass so I ordered a new one. It came and I started thinking, that's gonna be a lot of work trying to unscrew those rusty old screws and I bet that wood is gonna be a bit spongy so I grabbed my channies and walked across the street and bent that little thing that makes it stay closed and voila. ANd now I got a back up just in case because I'm a man and a man always has a back up. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cloaca du jour 2,064 Posted March 29, 2017 Oh on a side note about the dryer. While i had the back off I took off the vent and holy shite what a mess. Pins, coins, tons of crap. I took a shop vac and cleaned it all up. Works way better now!! I could see how a fire can start. Nasty Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BufordT 371 Posted March 29, 2017 My garbage disposal stopped working. Thought it might have crapped out. After researching disposals on the web I found out about this reset button that is sometimes on the bottom of these things. I pushed the button thingy and it started working again...... I rule!!! Spent the money I saved on a couple of new putter that I don't really need. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fandandy 3,311 Posted March 30, 2017 I have side door into a store room that had a pane of broken glass. It was taped for the longest time and just now I got a couple of putty knives and a hammer and removed the molding holding it in and removed the glass which I will replace after I measure the opening. I didn't Youtube schiot because I'm a man I can do things without a how-to video. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vuduchile 1,941 Posted March 30, 2017 I posted a message on FB last night asking if anyone knew a good lawnmower repair guy. A friend who's the super of a golf club said he would have his mechanic look at it. I'm gonna drop it off and play 9 with my friend while his mechanic fixes he mower. That's how I get sh!t done!
