COMM THREAD XVII IN HONOR OF STHU AND POST

[Doormatt]

Anybody know any good sites for downloading ebooks? i know about the gutenberg project, and ive checked Demonoid, but they dont really have the greatest collection. i just spent like 300$ on a kindle and im gonna get my monies worth, i pray to god more of my school books will be in digital format.

Any car people in here? The drivers side power window isn't working, but clicks, and passenger window works perfect. I have a feeling it's because I accidentally close my door too hard when parking on my sloped-driveway. It was working all day till I got home from work.

sounds like the motor might have died on you, could also be a faulty switch or a problem with the regulator. since you say its clicking i'm assuming you have power, so i'm leaning towards the motor, but not 100%.

I'm reading people with window motor problems and they say it has been off an on for weeks and finally went out. However, today is the first instance I've had.

[Gek]

Did you lean on your window, like when it was half way down or something?

CNN's Brooke Baldwin. I want her in my mouth.

what are you a cannibal?

I really enjoy hermes' one liners.

damn, should've changed my name to "TWOFER". played last night and I was 2 for 12 or so from the field, AGAIN.

work time.

[Imadogg]

Floor cleaning?

Yea some Mexicans were doing that while we cleaned up clearance to how our district manager wants it to look. It was hell.

Hope everyone is well

[TyCobb]

Damn. das booty ima.

Door panel is almost off.

[TyCobb]

Damn, $250 for a new window motor and I'm not even sure that is the exact problem. Closing car doors is serious business, folks.

[dockingsched]

double check all the small stuff. even if you hear a click, doesn't hurt to check your fuses, and if u can (have a spare, know someone with a similar car) double check the switch. what kind of car do u have if u don't mind me asking?

'04 350z. How/where do I check a power window fuse?

I've been following that tutorial and am at the part where you order the part.

No, this is what happened:

- drove home from work with the windows down
- parked my car, got out closed the door to run inside the house real quick (window still down)
- got back into the car, went to the bank to get some money to buy mallows, but in the Ralphs parking lot I pressed window roll up button for both sides, only passengers went up.
- turned off the car, turned it back on, still didn't work.
- drove back home, parked in garage, tried to close the window, still didn't work.
- ????????
- no profit, just loss.

Productive day in the Comm. Thread I see nice.

Good first game on MNF, now let's go Raiders!

[hermes]

Can someone teach me how to make techno/dubstep/trance music so I don't have to go to college anymore?

i wouldn't bother with it, it won't be a big deal in a few years (or at least not big enough to make any kind of substantial living off of it)

My bets on motor, but there is a chance you just knocked some wiring loose. I think it's fairly easy to pop off a door panel, although I've never done it.

most cars have one by the battery and on the driver side, under the steering wheel somewhere. should have a diagram on the lid that tells you which fuse works for what.

[TyCobb]

I'll check it out tomorrow, thanks cashmonies. Time to hoop it up. Game time.

That's the broken motor, normally happens when the car hits around 80 - 90k mileage. I had 2 of the rear windows on my audi fixed in the last 3 months and it cost me $700 parts + service. If you can do it yourself you can buy the part for around $90 - $100.

coolness, the one u want to check is the one inside under the steering wheel.

That seems like a very detailed tutorial.
