What did you do to your TJ today?

No real food today as I was driving six hours through a mini cyclone to get to my next destination…. The nice thing is that the place I’m staying at made my daughter and I some fresh homemade baked bread… it smelt incredible šŸ˜‹ so I have a picture of that ( hope it’s enough to stop me getting demerit points on my membership here šŸ˜‚)

My daughter did manage to take a couple pics of some seals though.. technically seals could be classed as a food pic šŸ˜›

Hours old. Unacceptable.

And I'm surprised no one called him out on that pizza with pineapple yet, got to be jerking someone's chain here....

I was wondering if someone would notice that šŸ˜‚ c’com pineapple pizza is great
 
Finally replaced my blower motor over the weekend because it was going in and out and I couldn't stand being cold. I had replaced the resistor over the summer because the speed controls weren't working. All was fine, until this morning...
Dropping off the kids, I noticed my speed controls were not working only blowing on high then I park and I see it, smoke coming from HVAC controls. :cry:

If it wasn't so damn cold, I'd have no problem pulling the dash really quick to see what's going on if it was warm! Regardless, I have to once again embrace the suck and work in the cold to figure out whats going on. Doesn't help that this is my DD right now. LAME.

Sometimes if the blower motor is going, it will fry the resistors and you'll end up replacing multiple resistors due to a bad blower motor. Even though you replaced the motor over the weekend, the original one could've been cooking the second resistor.

Resistor is good.

Wtf, that's what I call glamping! I never carried a cheese dome in my T J... 🤣

Was it low carb and gluten-free? ;)

Isn’t this one of those cases where as it’s failing, and because of the lack of a relay, more load parasites it’s way up to the control unit? I think I’ve seen a thread where people have added in a relay to this circuit for this reason

I might look into doing that down the line when it's a bit warmer out.
