Here is a guess. The radio screen displays a selection of stations. It gets this from the a server over the internet, using GPS location information. The cannot connect and unavailable messages arise from the list not being available. This could be from problems with the internet, Wi-Fi...
The Firery Furnace area of Arches is fantastic, if you have the time. It consists of some more unusual arches ( yeah I know), but also a labyrinth of deep fins, and great vistas. It requires a prior reservation and permit. You have to watch a video before entering. It is a guided tour, because...
There is a posting on this thread about a ditch light bracket that mounts to the fender bracket by the windscreen in the cowl area. Amazon lists an antenna mount that attaches to a light bracket. Not sure how to get the antenna feedline into the car. There are devices that are intended to pass a...
If you didn't finance you have to figure in the income you lost by not investing the money you spent on the car. Economists call this alternative use cost. Many people don't understand this, but it is a very real cost. It is related to a concept called time value of money (TVM).
Gen 1 uses a resistance heater. I'm guessing it heats the liquid in the thermal management system, rather than heating the air directly. Gen 2 has a heat pump. I'm guessing that the heat punp has its heat exchanger in the thermal management loop. I wouldn't think that the A/C box is very...
Sorry I misread his post. That is odd. My guess is that the inside hear exchanger retains condensate from when it was cooling the evening before. Perhaps the drain ts clogged. When it changes to heat it evaporated rhe water, which then condensed on the cooler windscreen. If so it should clear...
This is normal behavior. Every car i have ever had does this. You must turn off recycle, if your windows are fogging. Recycling cabin air builds up moisture which will condense on the cold glass. Wth recycle off, outside air is heated or is dehumidifier. Recycle is for quickly heating or cooling...
Tile sells stickers with a qr code and a legend "scan to return". Ater you register the sticker in the app, you will be notified when someone scans the sticker. You could attach a tracker to the adapter, but the tracker costs more than the adapter. If you use a Tile tracker, you can have your...
HD radio is a trademark for a form of in-band on-channel (IBOC) digital radio transmission. There are AM and FM versions. Unusually for a standard, it involves patented and proprietary IP content. Currently, using the standard requires requires the purchase of proprietary chip sets and licensing...
Sorry, I didn't pay attention to the context. I guess that mirrored film on the roof would not be objectionable, but might run afoul of the law, depending on the wording. I wonder what mirrored film on the roof would look like.
You might want to reconsider putting a cooler in there.. The refrigerator cools by transferring heat from the cooler's interior to the outside ambient. That is, it pumps heat gainst the thermal gradient. It also adds an unavoidable amount of heat to the environment (entropy). The cooler might...
We get spoiled by the remarkable horizontal accuracy of GNS. The vertical accuracy is always worse. The position accuracy depends on the number and location of satellites in view of the receiver, among other things. This called geometric degradation of precision (GDOP). It affects altitude...
I ordered a Storm Blue R1S Launch Edition with bronze wheels on July 8, the day of launch..I have heard nothing from Rivian but a bunch of spam..it's i only a littie more than 2 weeks after all. The charger arrived. It will be installed in my home next week.
I ordered some extras for delivery...
The standard MINI switch panel lacks a switch for the rear fog lights. There is a kit to change ithe panel out for one that does. It requires a programming change to enable it. I had this on my 2002 MINI.
