My GF knows I like feeding the hummingbirds so she gave me a wireless hummingbird feeder with a camera and an app for Father’s Day. Finally got around to setting it up a few hours ago. Check this out. A visitor!

2017 Malibu with only 20K. Randomly loses communication with the fob, locking you out or preventing engine from turning on (or off). The back up fob does the same thing at the same time. I found a TSB that matches the problems and it says to replace the “remote control door lock receiver”...

I’ve been having problems with rabbits destroying my lawn and bushes. So far, I’ve tried castor oil. Works for a while. Now I’m using Cayenne pepper, hot sauce with castor oil, and a motion spotlight. I was convinced it was working past couple of days. Last night, I get a ring alert side of the...

I have a 19 Cherokee it has been sitting for a few weeks so I put it on a barely used Harbor Freight 4 amp charger to top off the AGM battery. That seemed to go OK. The display showed the battery went from 12.1 to 14.5 for a while. Then dropped down to 12.9. The next day I went out to check on...

Oil change on a 2013 equinox 2.4. Unscrew the filter housing cap and the oil filter stays behind. That’s odd usually, it’s snapped into the cap. I didn’t think anything about it just pulled it out. It was when I went to install the new filter that I realized the endcap was still snapped into in...

Can someone tell me who makes this shower/tub mixer valve? I need to replace it. can no longer maintain a constant temperature. Is this something that is commonly soldered or screwed in like replacing the sink faucet?

This battery was great until yesterday when it wasn’t. I charged it overnight and a couple hours later it was back down around 11v again. How old is it? 2013 equinox 2.4.

I don’t have enough tools in the toolbox to work on a jeep Cherokee KL. Looking at the descriptions of tools online I see the following. Etorx Female Etorx External Torx Torx Torx plus EP torx plus E torx plus A few more names with sockets that look similar. Some are flat. Some are concave...

I never gave it much thought until I noticed the dedicated power cord used to charge and maintain the Escalade in storage was getting distorted. It’s a batteryminder 1500 connected to the wall outlet in the garage with whatever gauge that cord that is. I’ve never seen a cord do that before...

I have a Milwaukee 1/2 impact but I wanted something smaller so I purchased the HF Hercules 3/8. I really like the auto mode. Very balanced and quiet. Spins bolts off fast, but then slows down perfectly. Surprisingly quiet. But… I’m tortured by that small ring on the tip getting sockets...

On this catch can the baffle is located on the “In” side coming from the PCV valve. Is that the right spot? It seems like it should be on the out? Or is there another reason they put it on that side. Maybe to protect from the stainless steel filter media going back into the engine?

Researching AGM battery chargers I found this statement in many places.. “The charging current for an Absorbent Glass Mat (AGM) battery should be between 10 and 25% of the battery's capacity. For example, a 12V 100 Ah AGM battery should be charged with a 12V battery charger with a current...

Today I found what other equinox and terrain owners warn about. A PCV hose frozen with moisture. Supposedly when this hose freezes it can blow out the rear main seal, cause oil consumption, etc. The fix for many is an oil catch can. But wait, this isn’t oil blow by this is water and...

Would like to change the PTU fluid in my 2019 Cherokee Limited with Active Drive 1. Has anyone tried that? Is it possible without removal?

I’ve been using this pump sprayer for winter applications of salt away. Works good for that. I would also like to use it like a foam cannon on the undercarriage, if that’s possible. Are there any foaming spray nozzles I can get that fit this type of sprayer?

Picked up a 2013 equinox 2.4 a month ago. Had a few minor issues so the price was right. Repaired, all was good until I tried the heat. Just blows cold. Further investigation, I see the blend door actuator is unplugged. Ordered a new OEM blend door actuator. Installed, performed a calibration...

Husky has 2 small air compressors that look similar, same price, but one is 12 V and one is 120 V. Which one should I get? The Cherokee does have a 120 V outlet.

I need help. The blower motor on our 2005 Chevrolet Classic will only work on level 5, the max setting. What I’ve done so far: 1) Replace blower motor resistor 2) Replace control panel 3) Replace blower motor None of these repairs solved the problem. Assumption is the relay is good because...

My 2019 Cherokee with a Chrysler 3.2 has some annoying dry starts. I assume that’s due to the cartridge filter set up with no anti-drain back. Is there a cartridge filter that has ADB or does a better job holding oil in the filter housing?

Emergency repair on a 2003 maxima. Transmission pan rotted through. Went to O’Reilly picked up a Dorman transmission pan and a Fel-Pro gasket. There was a time that Fel-Pro was the go to gasket. I’m not so sure anymore, check this out. First pic is the OEM gasket sitting on the old pan. The...
