There was a seller on eBay that sold an audio converter a couple of years back, however I do not remember the sellers ID, but they do exist,

Hi, if it is doing that same sound during radio play and or CD play then more likely it is a bad audio cap.

Hi, it's a blend door actuator.

Agreed, I keep my IPA in an old 3M twist nozzle spray bottle for the larger jobs.

Acetone is way too strong of a solvent it will strip away the clear coat causing light spots in the paint.

@EightiesNut 😲

Hi Steve, I am unsure of the part number to source the RCA jack terminal however I am sure Digikey has the terminal in stock. You would absolutely need to remove the board as the terminal is a through-hole mount. I hope it goes well.

I bet those were some amazing times for you there as it was such a remarkable school, thanks for sharing those memories!

@@EightiesNut my hope kinda is that my friends see this comment lol

I hope they do. May you have a great week.

Hi, Is yours the Bose Acoustimass 6 III?

Yes, he was a real class act. He helped and educated so many during his amazing time as a teacher. He finally retired in 2009 after 36 years.

@@EightiesNut Indeed, I'll always cherish the memories being in his class. I remember every Friday we would have a pizza party and play games as long as we did all our homework for the week. He taught us if we ate our dinner we get our dessert.

Thank you very much, my condolences. I am sorry I do not do any type of retail repair anymore, I haven't in years.

This process with alcohol is not for glass. What you need are new single edge razor blades and Sprayway. The Sprayway will not be used as a glass cleaner but rather more of a lubricant so that you do not scratch the glass. Replace the blade at the first sign of dulling as dull blades will scratch your glass. Keep the blade in a very low angle as you are sliding it and you will go through the sap like butter. Good luck!

My pleasure!

Thanks! I am sorry I do not.

The pleasure is mine.

Thank you, he truly was an angel on earth.

Yes, there was an adapter kit years ago on eBay it's probably still available on there.

What an absolutely beautiful story. I am glad this video brought you a happy nostalgic memory. Thanks for the support!

@@EightiesNut Thank you for posting the video. Yes. It is a very sweet memory of my absolute favorite childhood bike. 💜💫✨

Thanks!, it is a 3:1 ratio. 3 parts semi-gloss to 1 part black primer. I have not had any luck matching with spray cans in the past, so I have only ever used automotive paint. You can try your luck with spray cans as it definitely won't cost as much. Good luck and thanks for the support.

@@EightiesNut Thank you for the info and video! I watched your whole video about the Dealership converting Z28's to IROC's 🙂 Sub'd

Thanks for the subscription, It's my pleasure. I have two IROC's now one complete weekend driver and one that's kind of a beater. I still drive the beater everywhere as I don't have to worry about it or door dings. In fact, the beater is a sleeper.

Hi, you need to use a good magnifier and check all CD related solder for cracks. Only one thing causes the issue you're having, cracked solder. You just need to find it and reflow it. As your unit heats up and expands it makes good contact at that point. Good luck

@@EightiesNut Thank you for the tip. I took it apart and poked around with a magnifying glass. It now works perfectly. Do you have experience with the SoundTouch series or the older Lifestyle series? I have some of those with a variety of issues. Not much info out there from people that actually worked on them.

If she could speak, I am sure she would say the same back. Thank you so much...

Hi, the Comp is basically a BMX racing bike with thin frame tubbing's, thin rims, and tires super light and in most cases 20" The Pro has a couple of factors size and strength frame size between 20" to 21" typically they have a thicker larger frame that is more heavy duty and robust with wider larger rims and tires I would even argue much stronger welds. The bikes play two completely different roles. One is made to be super light for racing and the other is made heavy duty to be able to take a beating and you would not want to use one for the other it's like having an all-terrain vehicle or a race car both awesome but made for two completely different things.

@@EightiesNutthank you for the reply and sorry for my late reply

Thank you! I hope you can stick around for many years to come.

Thanks! We will be making better quality videos as we go on, possibly even some livestreams with Sandy.

Hi, the LED is located to the left of the red/white dip switches.

Hi, next you should check the power transformer.

Thanks! I realized I should have placed it on a turn-style after I completed it. I need to purchase a powered one as I can't find my manual one but I think the powered one would be better than spinning it by hand. Yes, it looks like 17:30 to 20:00 was muted due to copyright music. Thanks for the support.

Oh, the Punch 45 is very nostalgic for me. I used it back in the day, for years in my 68 Skylark GS it pushed my "The Punch 6" subs" (mids) in my doors. It truly was a little beast. I still have it somewhere. In the trunk I had two Cerwin Vega 12" home subs before Cerwin Vega made car audio, they were mounted to a baffle board behind my rear seats and the trunk was used as the sub box, free-air. They hit hard and my punch 100 ran cool and never overheated as the subs were 8ohms. For the rear deck, I ran Pioneer 3-way 6x9's Dang! they were good times... Thanks for the support, have a great day buddy!

Those were all blockbusters. Did you see them and just didnt know or never seen them? If the latter, you need to watch them man, awesome flicks!

@@tellurye I seen them

Maybe I should just insert more bags like 3 or 4. I have plenty of bags so I will try again.

It could be so many things, but if I had to guess without physically inspecting it I would think a bad ground/open circuit or a failing cap.

Hi, yes I do.

You almost got it. The correct answer is 1977. Thanks for watching I hope you enjoyed the trivia.

Hi, if it is doing that same sound during radio play and or CD play then more likely it is a bad cap.

@@EightiesNut ok thanks for that. And if you could educate me, what is a bad cap? Haha!

@@DeanCrowder I almost fell for that, hehe

@@EightiesNut No seriously, I honestly don't know.

Oh sorry, I thought you were kidding. I was talking about the amplifier capacitors on the PCB sometimes they swell or burst and sometimes they just dry out. In the process of failing but not yet failed, you could get chirping sounds or hums, I would just replace all the caps as that will make the sound amazing again. Through time old caps will change the sound quality and because it's gradual slight changes and not drastic changes most people wont notice it. I notice the sound difference immediately because I am so used to listing to them. I could till a unit with new caps compared to a unit with old caps.

The pleasure is all mine. Happy I helped.

Hi, you can purchase it directly from Digikey They have all of the electronic components in stock RCA input jacks.

@@EightiesNut thank u!

Hi, by normal do you mean RCA jacks?

moss fits look like ics

Hi, an amplifier MOSFET is typically mounted onto a heatsink (aluminum) to dissipate the heat that the MOSFET produces. That is why so many amplifier housings are made of aluminum as the entire housing is used to despite heat. MOSFET's have four terminal leads however many have three and the ones that have four at times you may use only three, as you can use the source (S) as body (B) MOSFET lead terminals are source (S), gate (G), drain (D), and body (B)
