That moment when you don't have any fuses because you blew another fucking fuse on your new car. Then your like fuck modding, because fuses keep getting blown because you're too lazy to disconnect the battery, but feel that you shouldn't have to, because you never had to it the past.

Get some new ballasts bro. Also be careful when installing LEDs. I blew many a fuse that way because I was lazy and didn't disconnect battery too.

and :gheyhug:
Thanks guys. She's a lot of fun...lots of personality already. Happy, Sad, Pissed are all very apparent...she also reaches over and starts pounding on keyboards and smartphone screens. They do learn fast...she might be on AZ by the time she's 2.
Derp Daddy moment...I put the bow on to take some pics...mainly took them because this 80 year old lady at work bought her those sterling earrings and although B hates them, I told her I wanted to at least take some pics and thank her for the thought. Forgot to tuck BOTH her ears in under it...so she kinda looks like BABBBBYYYY RUTTTTTHHHHHHH Poor Z.
Dem ears! She got my huge fkng head and big ears.
5 pounds and like 2 days old vs 13 pounds (guessing...been 2 weeks since 12 # at doctor) and 4.5 months.

Note to self, just unplug battery next time. I was on DA and some guys were saying you to to go with a CANBUS led. Didn't have time to research what it was but I'm guess it must have something in the bulb to not cause issues.
#5695

Nah . Accords don't need CANBUS,dumbass ricers are just messing up their installs and shorting the leads together causing the fuse to blow..

The first time a fuse blew I just went and bought this on Amazon: Littelfuse 00940560ZXA MIRCRO2 Blade Fuse Commercial Assortment, 70-Piece https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00HWNCFZ6..._sy98wbZGF7MCB

I just shove 30 amp in everything. Seemed smart and safe.
Why the fk is putting an LED in reversed polarity shorting? Normally it just won't light up...Are they grounding sockets to body now? So when you put it in backward positive is using the bulb to jumper to ground?
Kevin, also...if you look under hood, there are usually about 5 spare fuses to get you by.

I usually just stick a paper clip in there and call it a day
Nah not reverse polarity, just when they're shoving it in, they're touching both leads together and shorting the circuit.
Even when you're careful, it still happens,

I've never had it happen.
Except now that I say that, it will.
Funny enough...but I must have stripped out a wire to the courtesy light that was shorting, kept killing fuse 6...alarm, keyless, lighting...i finally got so fed up with it i did shove a paperclip in and fried the circuit on the multiplex unit.

dumbass.
I hope your job involves keeping you as far away from wiring as humanly possible.

How the hell does one do electrical work and not disconnect the battery?

I don't mind the potential shock. I probably switched out 40 outlets/switches at the house with the circuit live. But in the car...the potential collateral damage...it's just not worth it.
Well...I've got another 6 lb roast in the crock pot today. Making copycat Chipotle barbacoa.

Chad, if you've never had the inkling...keep on that path, man...first 2 months we were VERY like why the fk didn't anyone say that if we were on the fence, NOT TO.
Wally...fkn A, man...but, you know...we didn't all get JORDANS every 6 months. Doesn't have to be THAT expensive.
Now that some time has passes, things are cool.
I never used to pull the battery...for some reason, reprogramming the clock and radio channels seemed harder to do than troubleshooting what I shorted. I definitely fkd up on that wiring...but it shorted later on so I REALLY could NOT figure out what the heck I did or what wire I messed up so I had no inkling where to start troubleshooting. In the end, only lost the courtesy lights, which I covered with vinyl so I didn't care much, could have been MUCH worse.

Do you man, don't do things because of the social pressure of it. Do it because you and the wife are 200% committed to taking care of another life for 18 years.
