  1. Heat it & beat it. If it stands up to that then sandblast & treat it. May have a few holes to patch. But then i've patch up land rovers worse than that & they're horrible rust magnets.
  2. Or solder. Or drill small indents in the housing for grip & use an epoxy.
  3. Haha. Was trying to hook it up to my little transmitter. It was based on blink.
  4. COM 4 wasn't responding, i re-installed the drivers and plugged it into a different serial port and it started responding again as COM 5. Stupidly forgot to test which fix it was. I'll just guess a cooked my USB port by plugging it in while the car was running. Beats me why this doesn't flash at 20ms intervals
  5. What does this mean? Did i fry it again?
  6. Weld. Machine for whatever wheel nuts suit the car, or whatever is available. Plugs on wheel stud holes sounds kind of dumb.
  7. I'm rough & brutish but i use meths, acetone, blow a handful of chalk over it & it'll how up the big cracks. If you can find that sort of thing in one day & it passes that test then you might want to use a bought in kit. Or not, depends on how rough you are.
  8. Fishing sinkers, solder, any lead. It flexes takes the worst of the shock loading.
  9. Weird seeing an O2 sensor on a 4K. Back in my day people welded diff's. I would rather pour lead in them. The axle shafts will thank you. So... what will you do about the rear bumper?
  10. So some of you are really into programmable ignition and electronic sensors. I tried to make my own electronic ignition. After 3 seconds one of the MOSFETS running a coil shorted out. After 7 seconds all of them had. Each mosfet was rated at 20 amps. But considering they were dealing with the primary and ... lets face it. some of the secondary output (These old timers are like that) i don't think they were up to the million volt task. At least 2 hall effect sensors survived. Barely.
  11. That's a description of beach-hop. I thought kumeu was about the cars.
  12. I want to go again. Is anyone going on a sunday?
  13. Might not be able to at night. What about the daytime?
  14. It's more like 10 days away isn't it? And i hope i make it. Probably everyone else will hope i don't but it's still a good day out.
  15. Seems to work well on shitty shipping containers though. Not so much on car panels.
  16. I noticed that when the magnet hovers over the sensor the output pulses over & over. For my application this time that's not a problem and i can make it an advantage. For other things there might be something required to make it pulse once only. Sounds simple but i bet it'll need massive restructure of the code.
  17. It's a Christmas programming miracle! Now to add variables that speed up the delay based on prior input repetition. ...and i have enough spare parts to make an electronic injector system... Hmm..
  18. Yup, blink is easy. Reprogramming it to morse code was easy, string of lights blinking at different rates was easy. One sensor that activates one relay was easy. Multi sensors, not yet.
  19. I looked at the examples and got a bunch of error codes when i tried to make it function. I don't even know what a stray slashNumber is.. Pretty sure the pages of reference is where i got this unusable code from. "How hard could it be, that guy down south made his dashboard indicator light controller in one night". Turns out it's impossible. And now everyone will know i'm dumber than shit & shouldn't exist.
  20. I think i do. Might have 4. They were cop rims so whatever size those are...
  21. Ok, so what am i doing wrong in the "else if" area. Pretty sure i goofed something there.
  22. const int sensorPin1 = A1; const int sensorPin2 = A2; const int sensorPin3 = A3; int sensorValue = 0; int sensorMin = 1023; int sensorMax = 0; void setup() { pinMode(2, OUTPUT); pinMode(3, OUTPUT); pinMode(4, OUTPUT); } void loop() { if (sensorPin1 >= 900); { pinMode(2, HIGH); delay(200); pinMode(2, LOW); } else if (sensorPin1 <= 900); { pinMode(2, LOW); } if (sensorPin2 >= 900); { pinMode(3, HIGH); delay(200); pinMode(3, LOW); } else if (sensorPin2 <= 900); { pinMode(3, LOW); } if (sensorPin3 >= 900); { pinMode(5, HIGH); delay(200); pinMode(5, LOW); } else if (sensorPin3 <= 900); { pinMode(5, LOW); } } Proof i'm not a coder.
