It's these little things that drive me nuts.....
 

I've been trying to find the problem as to why my truck wouldn't start. Starter wouldn't even turn over. I've been wasting my time chasing wires, changing my starter, pulling out my hair, etc, when I noticed that my lights were looking a little dim. Turns out it's a near dead battery. Grrrrr.....

Been there, done that. Not with a dead battery, but other 'stupid' mistakes.
Live and learn.

I'm not trying to be a wise acre but you have to start simple and go from there! That's a lesson I've learned the hard way!

I was gonna say KISS Keep It Simple Stupid...but I didn't. ;)
In hind sight...I'm glad I didn't.

Shorty- You've got to stay off the "Highway to Hell" as it is known to have "High Voltage" around it-no wonder you have electrical problems! Sorry, I could'nt "resist" the a.c-d.c. thing-oh, bad pun!:D

I changed out an alternator once only to find that a fuse was blown. :(

I've done other ingnorant things, but this one is the funniest to me. The older I get I do manage to gain some wisdom though.

AH GRASSHOPPER---- Also check the ground from your battery to your block and your block to your firewall. been there done that----time and again!!!!!!
"WISDOM THROUGH EXPERIENCE IS PRICELESS UNLESS YOU FORGET IT"! Huck;)

live and learn its always best to start simple first then start working on the harder stuff

yes i agree dont automatically before you check the simple im only 19 and i have wasted a good bit of money from jumping to conclusions but i pretty well learned my lesson on things and go after the stupid things first

the little things drive you nuts? Its not a drive..just a short putt...lol
