This actually just happened to me like 30mins ago after I switched out the front map lights to LEDs. In the manual on pg.283 it says if the interior lights come on fine it might be a blown fuse, so I'd check the fuse box.

I got jumped once and no problems here.

LOL that's epic. That man gave no fucks. Do you know exactly where that's from?

Too good for the other TSX's? I understand man.

Man I've been picking up your slack for DIY mods.

Why don't you come back and do awesome stuff again!?

defconskylude

i have 2 kids now and im done with my TSX.

im all into firearms now

i got a new mini mill and will be designing/fabricating my own rifle chassis for .22 long rifles

so im learning some basic machining and solidworks when i convert it into CNC

I'd like to think of myself as a solidworks wizard! Towards the end of my last semester at school I was getting into machining, but never got the chance at work to learn how to code.

You should learn MasterCAM.. It's supposed to be pretty good for amateurs. If you call MasterCAM and tell them you are a student they will send you a free copy thats good for a year. That'll give you the basics for programming your CNC machine to cut what you have designed in SW. It has a whole SW app. that brings in a .STEP file and you can select edges/profiles and faces. The biggest thing is know how big the cutter is and areas that may lead you to crash the machine. It doesn't really warn you if you've entered code that may cause your machine to crash. The virtual simulation is sub-par.

Also, since you fabricate a lot, you're probably aware that people are rapid prototyping metal now too. ProtoLabs can do a bunch of metals just from a simple SW file. ANNND they only 3 day lead times. Pretty cool!

Sorry bud, no idea where this happened. But holy shit, notice how he is SO close to T-boning another vehicle at some point after losing his front wheel?

xtcnrice

That's incredible. I obviously wasn't around back then to notice your DIY work "live" so to speak, but I've read though parts of the forum and your DIY work is spot on. Good luck with your gun related work. I think us 2G guys would love to see you post some of your non-car related work here once in a while.
