OK...I'll let you know for sure,but, now that I covered it, it might last a while. 😉 Maybe you can cover it with a clear roofing panel? I hope it's not leaking now...

Its a weird hassle to me; they set up all of the security features,but, none of them work when you need them!! What good are they if they are not going to help recover your account?? ANYHOW >>>>>Did you watch the video? Did you leave everything alone and simply wait a week? Like the title of the video says- wait a week! I hope it all turns out OK for you!

THAT is a drag !! I hope you can find it soon! I'm sure you have already checked all the parts stores near you- maybe online?? Please let us know where you find it! Thank you for the comment : )

I found the one i needed, but only after I took the wrong one back, just like you did.. I asked them if there were 2 on the car, and they said yes.. I just don't know where it is.. I've looked all over the internet

@@jasenheatley8454 OHHH OK, gotcha. I totally misunderstood (sorry about that): I disagree with whoever told you that, there are NOT two temp sensors on that engine! Temp sensor, thermostat, that's it ! 👍

​@@dbsmaybemodsrepairs good to know.. I was tired of looking 😂

@@jasenheatley8454 Always great to get a project like that off the to-do list.😉 Happy Holidays!! 🎄🎇

THAT is awesome! Thanks for the reply, I'm really glad it worked for you; these things are expensive now! Thanks again for the comment and happy trimming!

@dbsmaybemodsrepairs absolutely! You saved me a few hundred bucks because I was just about to give up on trying to fix them. Thank you again!

I had NOT thought of either of those two things, Cool! I want to go out and smell my gloves now : ) Thank you so much!!

@@dbsmaybemodsrepairsYou are welcome! I just can't stick my hands in stinky gloves. Maybe my hands sweat more than other people, but if I use gloves without liners, they stink after one use.

@@GudasWorld_2 It's smart that you use them for that! Thanks again : )

Thank you for the nice comment! I appreciate you as well; all the best to you and yours! : )

You are welcome Pete!! Hope you got that plumbing all done , just right! : )

Thank you! I never new the brand and name of it. All the best to you n yours.

That's a bummer! The whole lid lock concept is weird to me- I wonder if it is about keeping people from looking in and seeing what is going on or NOT going on when the washer is operating. I'm glad it's possible to bypass the lid lock. I hope you get yours up and running again. Thanks for the comment!

Seems to be a control board issue. I managed to get my fingers to where the switch toggles ( lid was unlocked not like the flashing led indicated) and went back and forth with it and between unplugging and re trying I managed to get it started. I'm thinking that the motherboard can't tell if the switch is closed or open. I know it will go down again, so I haven't canceled the warranty appt. Bought the extended warranty just now too. This machine does a nice job of washing clothes and I'd like to get some years out of this thing. Thanks for the reply and hope you have good luck

That's awful!! Mine has been just fine from day 1- I hope you get some answers from GE .. Thanx for the comment and I hope it all gets resolved soon!

A couple questions : ) EMT meaning metal conduit, is that right? (heating won't help with metal emt for sure). If so, are they rusted at all? And you are wishing to install an outlet/junction box on the ends of the conduits correct? How about using 1/2 in. Electrical Metallic Tube (EMT) EMT-to-Box Offset Set-Screw Connectors ? You don't need to spread the conduits much to get them on. You can swivel them a bit after you put them in the box to fit onto the conduit ends. I think you are on the right track by not wanting to bend of crimp metal emt conduit. www.homedepot.com/p/Halex-1-2-in-Electrical-Metallic-Tube-EMT-EMT-to-Box-Offset-Set-Screw-Connector-90371/100120544

@@dbsmaybemodsrepairs yes EMT is the metal electrical conduit Thank you for the link to those offsets from Home Depot. I saw those, but I guess I never realized they could be swiveled Kinda feeling like duh 🙄 I’ll give them a try.

@@oahukiteboarder808 I hope you have enough space to get them on the conduit ends AND I hope they work !!!😉 If the offsets hit each other when you are trying to install them and won't thread in there because that, maybe just thread in one offset and one straight; thread the offset one in there first and leave it a bit loose for swiveling in the general position you desire, then thread the straight one in.

@@dbsmaybemodsrepairs thank you so much. I wish everyone on TH-cam paid attention to their comments and responded.

@@oahukiteboarder808 My pleasure- I am only standing on the shoulders of the good folks that have helped me a million times (give-or-take) over the years. I hope you got that junction box or whatever installed OK

If it's been sitting a while-lube the blades (if you can) a bit before you try and loosen them up like in the video. Hope it is just stuck and not broken so the method in the video works; we're keeping our fingers crossed! Thanks for the note!

Hi Larry, that's is great information, thank you! I wonder myself as I really wanted to have the durability of spar urethane and probably should have just used regular polyurethane. I recoated as couple months ago with the last can I had of the spar and it was still full of debris: I was intensely careful about sanding , washing and drying- still tooooooo many tiny goobers ! I'm in a very, very dry area so dampness or humidity were not a factor in my case. To be clear, I used a rattle can for the last couple times. I was happy with the coverage and shine, it just is not the same with all that crap in it. I think the spar aspect of it or just the bottom of the barrel so to speak of the batch I got? All that being said, the point you made about the material wicking moisture and probably junk along with it, is amazing and helpful: I hope everyone pays attention to that: I know I am!! Thanks again

Oh man, yeah I was in the front yard last week fixing a broken riser and it was a scorcher- nothing to do but power through it. My neighbor was talking with me and hiding behind a phone pole !😆The Phoenix area is at a different level though- that's brutal....and it's monsoon season ! I am glad it worked for you. I have done a few of these this year- I am waiting for a nice,open hole to make a PVC no-slip coupling video, so far everything has been so tight that this method has been my go-to. I hope you don't need to do it again any time soon! Thank you for the nice comment- stay cool!

Please let us know your conclusion after you try it! I hope you derive some benefit from it and thank you for the comment!

It certainly could be ! I think I remember mine was not reading correctly and fluctuating like that before I changed the sensor. As long as you don't have air in the system, then I think that you can depend on the thermostat NOT being the cause; it's new. I hope you get it squared away soon: I wish replacing the sensor was easier though.

WHAT ??? You fixed it with gorilla glue? That's fantastic! What version of gorilla glue did you use? Were you able to use the same plug and is it holding up to the pressure, even with the heater on? Congratulations and Thank you !

@@dbsmaybemodsrepairs Gorilla super glue. Plug snapped in half. Glued it back together

@@chrisraz8046 Incredible- I love their super glue: I hope that repair holds forever. Thanks for the comment😎

That's really helpful to know! I never heard of a white bulb for those. Yeah- that black bulb is dim,but seems to do the trick. I use my air compressor to blow the bugs out,but, I'm certainly going to be careful. What do you think about the attractant : is it needed ? Thank you : )

It certainly seems like it !! I'm pretty sure it contains what it claims to contain,but, other than that ...........thanks for your comment!

Oh for sure I was not being very scientific; now that you mention it, I'm not actually sure any vitamin kind of stuff has actually made me feel better- I just wanted to try Geritol based all of the advertisements I saw when I was younger! : ) Thanks for the comment!

Hi, You are quite welcome! I wish I had better things to say about those products. I am going to try a different poly urethane this summer sometime. Thank you so much and all the best to you!

Hi Andy, You are very welcome. All the best to you and yours!😊

It's just assembly tips!! BUT I think there might be some step-by-step videos out there. You CAN do it! Thanks for your comment!

You are welcome!! Thank you for taking the time to comment>>> All the very best to you!

Good to know! It's a hassle when it leaks for sure. Do you know the exact size and type of that plug? Thanks for letting us know and I hope people in areas prone to freezing will take note! Have a great one !

Those were the days !! Those metal cans got heavy ! 150 x 5 = 750 a week!~!! Did he ever say it made him feel better or do you think he just thought it helped him? I mean, it couldn't hurt, right? Thanks for the comment!

I've seen those,but, never tried it; I'll give it a whirl when I can- Thank you! P.S> I STILL haven't tried this using 45s ! I have so many 90s left !

@@dbsmaybemodsrepairs it's tougher to do with 45's and if you try the bell end fix I recommend using clear glue if possible Christy's sets fast

@noeeon9910 I'll bet that's true!! I'm also gonna keep bugging the PVC manufacturers to step up to the plate and make a usable no-stop PVC fitting!! Thanx again

I hope you were able to find out- there's a zillion resources out there on this sensor! Thanks for taking the time to comment and good luck!

Hi, Yes ! You can certainly take the control panel assembly off- it is actually a good idea to do so just to check it from time to time. You can see the screws on either side (two on each side)of the long green housing that is basically the width of the heater . Remove those screws and keep them in a safe place. Hold that long green housing and lift up; it will lift up, pivot outward at the top and stay there with the bottom lip acting as a hinge( no need to take it off). From there you will see the control board is screwed to the green housing that is now leaning out. There should be a plastic shield that covers the control board; it's light weight plastic light a sheet that is screwed on. This shield is flimsy an is prone to disintegration! It is held in place with screws- take them off, stow them and examine the board. If the shield is badly damaged you might have to fabricate one to replace it. From here you might want to consider taking pictures of how things are wired and put together just in case a wire comes off etc. The outer bezel and buttons are a separate assembly from the control panel board and are connected to the board with a ribbon connector. You should be able to take the control panel board of and wipe it down gently with a soft cloth and maybe some rubbing alcohol (including the led display). You will be able to do the same with the inside of the clear plastic display window in the outer bezel- just gentle as possible so as not to scratch it. Put the control panel back on and that flimsy shield. BEFORE you go- look at the heater area behind that long green housing that is pivoted out. There is a silver metal ledge there- do you see and rat droppings? Rats love that ledge. If you see droppings just spend a few moments to clean that up and examine the wiring for rat gnaw damage ! :) No droppings? great , then just gently lift that long green housing up and out a bit then pivot back towards the heater- you will see how it goes back into place. Once you have re-secured it give the heater a try just to be sure. I sealed the outer bezel to the long green housing at the top and sides, not the bottom. I hope al that helps a bit- I bet you get it cleared up just fine! Thanks and all the best to you.

Thank you. That's exactly what I did and it now fires up beautifully! @@dbsmaybemodsrepairs

@@finney44 That is wonderful!! I'm so glad >> well done !👏👏 Thanks for letting me know.

Hi Timothy~ Thanks for the comment! Sometimes there is just no clean, easy way to use a no-stop coupling and this can get up, and around stuff! I keep hoping the PVC manufacturers will make no-stop PVC couplings ...soon! Thanks again and all the best to you and yours!

I totally understand! Not sure what specific info you are looking for,but, no harm in fast forwarding. I hope you are doing well and thanks for the comment 🙂

@@dbsmaybemodsrepairs I am looking for the part that is in the title. Your removal surgery and removal experience. If you had some kind of skip to this point if you want to hear about that, it would be helpful.

Hi Noredia, Thank you for the kind words! I wish for everyone going through to have at least, or better experience than myself. : ) I would like to type my response to you rather that redo the video and talk more- that would be waaaay tooo long then- maybe it already is! When I had an attack of "gallstone symptoms" it was a gripping pain in my upper torso and sometimes more localized towards my right side. Sometimes it would double me over and prevent me from doing anything, sometimes it would be much less severe. A number of times, I knew I was having an "attack" and was able to just keep going, sort of pretend it was not there. A few times I did throw up and was unable to do much for a while. The "attack" would gradually go away, sometimes faster than other times I guess it was a mixture of symptoms until the very end when I knew it was NOT going to subside and I HAD to get it taken care of by a medical personnel. That was my experience and I don't recommend doing what I did; get proper medical help ASAP and make sure to ask about the possibility of stones in your bile duct: you have to know one way or the other in my opinion. The only "test" I had was the ultra sounds and describing my symptoms to the Drs. My last Dr. was the one who knew I needed help right away and prescribed liver panel blood work which might have helped him decide I had a bile duct obstruction. I was not feeling as bad when I had my other consultations so the Drs. in those cases were not as concerned I guess. They recommended the surgical procedure(s) to increase my chances of never having a problem again which makes sense to me. I hope my response has been beneficial to you and thanks again!

I'm not sure I know better than you! 🙂 This is just an obviously vulnerable area and I could see that the seal had some questionable spots.

BTW- as long as it looks OK and works perfectly, that was all I was going for and that was absolutely achieved >>> zero issues after a year, several washings, and lots of rain.

I have the same model 2013 Yukon Denali (not-xl). If I get that water out, I'll put silicon anywhere I think could be leaking. Better than spending a fortune on a new headlight.

I agree for sure! Plus- you don't need to put the silicone anywhere you can't reach

Hi Walter, Yes- masking to keep it mess to a minimum! and yes that seems to be where the leak was. Are you using a blow dryer or some kind of heater with a blower? 3 teaspoons is a bit of water! I think that a blow dryer directed right into that opening with enough gap to let moist air escape should do it pretty quickly. I hope it dries out fast and you get it sealed up !

I taped a tube to an old hair dryer and put the tube through the hole. Unfortunately, I turned it on high and melted the tube and apparently overheated the dryer and burned up the motor.

What!!! ??? That's crazy!! Sorry to hear that ,but, you were on the right track. I would just put the blow dryer on med fan, medium heat and put it about an inch or so away from the opening just to get a decent air exchange - I can see how a tube might simply not be able to be of sufficient diameter to get inside the opening AND handle hot air flow@@walterweatherly4204

Maybe you could try a compressor now that the blow dryer has bit the dust?? @@walterweatherly4204

The tube was from my cpap machine. It fit the hole but couldn't handle the heat. I'd have to buy a new blower. I will see if I can get by without.

YES... It's a hassle ,but, there it is !! You can do it Joe!

That's a great idea and you are pretty fast there! :) I always have a problem with electrical tape getting sticky stuff where it shouldn't be ! LOL Thanks Jules!

I used it a lot when I was in a pinch and needed to yousey leatheman multitool to do quick electrical work. It's not stikey if you immediately remove the tape after use. Heatshrink is great, it's just I never had a heat gun on hand when I needed it as it was most often with the insulated screwdrivers in my toolbox.

@@julesc8054 Great followup info Jules- Thank you again!!

OH! YES! A great inclusion- wear some kind of insulating gloves while doing this kind of work: I just used my thick vinyl gloves that you see in my videos,but,I'm confident that they provide some protection while affording me some dexterity. Thanks for the great comment!

Hey! Another vote for heat gun ++ and don't they have cordless heat guns now? Those are good tips! Thank you!

That's a Fantastic idea too- I think that I just wanted to get it done and making the video took more time than the actual deed of course. I think if someone wanted to make it very nice, using a heat gun would be the way to go if one is avaialable! Great suggestion for sure- thanx!

Propane torch works too just stay away far enough to not burn it.@@dbsmaybemodsrepairs

LOL! That would be me! I would burn the insulation off the wires like right now! Seriously though, like the heat gun suggestion, heating the conduits could be way to bend and turn the conduits as long as they don't get deformed at all: I just wanted to wedge them apart enough to get the conduits in the box sufficiently. Thanks for the comment and idea ! :)

Thanks dafish!! Yeah- it needed something because of the length for sure! Thanks again!!

I totally want to try using 45s! I just have soooo many 90s- I'm stuck in a groove for a while- Thanks for commenting!!

@@dbsmaybemodsrepairs thank you for sharing your knowledge

Thank YOU Ben!! Have a great one :)

Those don't work well in every situation and I have asked the PVC manufacturers to make one that works better - maybe someday! Thanks for the comment!

This is the best way to do it believe it or not. We do this with main lines all the time.

Thanks for the comment I wish there were different lengths of the no stop coupling, like they have for copper, plus, some situations make using no-stop couplings more difficult! This is just faster, easier, and more dependable for me in many circumstances. Thanks again and all the best !! @Supersaiyanprime24

Were you able to get it resolved ? I hope so and thanks for the comment! 🙂

Fair enough! I suppose it was really more assembly tips I suppose; the instructions in the box cover the assembly pretty well. Thanks for the comment !🙂

@@dbsmaybemodsrepairs I apologize I was just irritated while putting this thing together. Your video wasn’t bad these chairs just got me heated

@mikeyjohnston3796 - No offense taken at all-I think folks should absolutely share what/how they feel. I really appreciate your follow up reply for sure :) and , actually think it might help someone decide whether to watch the video fully, or at all (that's a good thing!). The chairs LOOK simple to assemble,but, if someone doesn't have a way to turn them upside down, like using the box as a stand like I did- I think they would need a helper don't you?

Great suggestions! I HOPE I never have to do it again- my finger nails are just now growing back !! 😅😅 BTW..... How much was the sensor at your dealer? Thanks and all the best to you!

Well hopefully you got the idea in less than that :) some of the extra details might help some though.... I think I repeat myself tooooo much.. thanks for comment !

@@dbsmaybemodsrepairs LOL... I sure did ! Thanks for sharing

Hi Aniceth, Last year I hung mine from the house eaves and , same as you; not effective. This year, I hung both under a fig tree farther away- huge improvement, virtually no mosquitoes. I don't know about flies though as I turn ours off during the day. We have fencing between the front and back yards that seems to be a barrier so we get mosquitoes at the front porch still :( I am going to get another one for that area. Thanks for the comment and I hope you find something that works!! BTW that is a very fun name - Aniceth- I've never seen that before...
