Re: The GREAT Ms. American 3.14159's Left Brake Light Won't Light Mystery Caper

Hey Mr. K, There isn't a DAIRY QUEEN in Onalaska, or Livingston, but I DID get her $40.00 worth the gasoline at the Onalaska Conoco. She must really like it because she drinks a LOT of it!

Re: The GREAT Ms. American 3.14159's Left Brake Light Won't Light Mystery Caper

Re: The GREAT Ms. American 3.14159's Left Brake Light Won't Light Mystery Caper

Hey Mr. K, yes, but the Steering Wheel has to be returned to "Straight Ahead" for that to happen, which doesn't happen when parking Ms. American in the Car Port. Also, the Turn Signal isn't something...

Re: The GREAT Ms. American 3.14159's Left Brake Light Won't Light Mystery Caper

Hey CJD, just got back in from the Car Port, after doing some diagnostics on Ms. American's Brake Lights. What was found was that the Left Brake Light wasn't ON with the Brake Pedal Depressed. So...

Re: The GREAT Ms. American 3.14159's Left Brake Light Won't Light Mystery Caper

Hey Mr. 5851, have seen this explanation previously, but don't have any idea where all these components actually are. This is the first anomaly with Ms. American's Brake Lights that hasn't been easy...

Re: The GREAT Ms. American 3.14159's Left Brake Light Won't Light Mystery Caper

Hey Mr. E, it certainly seems to be a problem that comes with aging. Ms. American will be 58 years old on Sunday. We all seem to wear out sooner or later.

Will run the test on the Turn Signal...

Re: The GREAT Ms. American 3.14159's Left Brake Light Won't Light Mystery Caper

Hey All, got about 50% of the Slop out of the Steering Wheel. Took about 3/16th of a turn. More than 1/8 of a turn, but less than a 1/4 of a turn. No sign of binding. The Steering Wheel now has only...

Re: The GREAT Lubricate Ms. American 3.14159's Manual Steering Gear Box Caper

Re: The GREAT Lubricate Ms. American 3.14159's Manual Steering Gear Box Caper

Hey Mr. K, there was one time a suggestion to list Ms. American on eBay, with an indefinite reserve, and see how much the bid would be. But I have no idea of how to do that.
