My door sensor switch was dirty, which meant intermittent entry lights, no key-in and lights-on beep, and my alarm would arm itself with the door open. Graciously Honda made the switch super easy to remove and overhaul, and I finally got around to it this morning. Feels so nice to fight entropy and freshen up the little things on a clean 13-year-old car.

Now that non-functioning cruise control, that might be a bit of a trickster...

My power door locks decided to go into turbo mode one day (just clicking on and off with haste randomly). So I unplugged the fuse. No more power door locks! Easy fix that way since I don’t ever use those.

The idle on my miata was rough. Figured out it was because there is a switch that detects if the clutch is in. Even though it wasn’t designed to be rebuild-able, some forum people had figured out how to take it apart and add a spring from a pen to make it work again. IDLES GREAT!
