Decided to drive the Pathfinder to run errands this morning, since it’s been sitting for probably almost 2 months. Cranked a little slow but fired up quickly.

Then, while driving, realize that the following things didn’t work at all:

Power seat

Window switches

Windshield wipers (but the washer spray *did* work )

Turn signals

Yet the dash, stereo and HVAC all worked fine.

Off to look at the fuse box now...

Check those brake lights!

Yeah I didn’t check those or the headlights.

It’s in the driveway now and won’t move until I sort it out, thanks!

The electrics have been good for the last 13 years, but it does seem like the Prince of Darkness haunted it some time in the last few days...

AMGtech - now with more recalls! > WilliamsSW 04/27/2019 at 11:53

Just charge it for a few hours. Low voltage wreaks havoc and causes all sorts of weird electrical issues.

Yeah, I was thinking about that - I was hoping the drive would help, but I think it was too short.

Problem is that I have a tender, not a charger. If the lights work I may try to drive it a bit more, then put the tender on it.

Thanks!

I've got a charger you can borrow.

Thanks! If it’s not drivable right now ( lights) I may take you up on that offer, perhaps after work next week?

I’ll keep you posted - may or may not set foot outside to look at it today.

Probably not. Eff this weather.

I just showered and put my PJs back on.  I’m not going outside today.

My pregnant wife wants Giordanos for dinner, so I’ll have to go out at least 1 more time unfortunately.

Worthy cause! Sacrifices have to be made!

This was my lunch. The poppers were home made.

Hmmmm, those poppers look delicious!

And is that Tombstone? I like Tombstone - it reminds me of going up to Wisconsin on vacation as a kid, eating pizza in bars with my parents ( That sounds weirder than it actually was).

The poppers were amazing!

Close on the pizza. It was a Little Ceasar’s frozen pizza kit, we purchased through  a fund raiser for the big one’s school.  They’re actually pretty good!  So are Tombstones.

Nice! I’m just waiting for my Giordanos order now. Spinach stuffed for the wife and son, thin crust for me, and a house salad to share ( I love their house salad).

Stay warm!

Never left the house today!

Mmmm ... Pizza ... *Homerdrool*

It was yummy (of course!). Sausage, pepperoni and giardiniera thin crust, extra sauce, light cheese, and well done.

Your lunch was making me drool earlier!
