Looks legit!

My no start was a bad nss. Derp.
 
Reminds me of this mess on a house when I was on a mission trip. This was going to the meter/circuit box on the outside wall of the house.

That's actually probably not bad. There's no open splices.

When you want to run separate circuits to everything you end up with a lot of wire.

mac 'not an electrician...but my dad is' gyvr
 
Yeah, that's a mess.....not a fire hazard!
 
Decided to test the arb air pump this morning on the way to work to make sure everything was working for the clean up.....flip the switch and it didn't pump up.....
 
You're not required to attach the wires to anything, that's why you can just bore holes in studs and feed wire through them. It's definitely a mess but it's probably to code.

I even see a lot of yellow and orange wires, so they're at least using lower gauge wire for higher amperage circuits.

I'm waiting for Ken to chime in, but he probably still doesn't have electricity :shhh:

You know if you ran autolockers this wouldn't happen. If it comes down to it, you could strap your welding gas tank in the back and get some adapters.

Yea I know, if it was an ox I wouldn't have this issue either....I am already working out a plan to use my 2 gallon compressor and an inverter if I need to. new compressor is 150.

Starting to think budget beater again.
 
Pre heated the jeep this morning, 27* out and i had to throw the boys in there so i wanted it to be a little warm for them. when i turned it on i remembered that at WF my blower got stuck on defrost only.

Don't ya hate that. Mine was doing that right before I got rid of it.

Mine is also stuck on defrost only. That's the default setting when there is something wrong with the adjusters. But you probably already knew that. I guess I should start looking at mine. I'll let you know what I find with mine.

Nah I am actually working at work :moon: I have had power back for a few weeks now on my new panel and auto transfer switch.

If you pass wires through bored holes you don't need to secure them, but cables which aren't supported that way are supposed to be stapled every 4 feet (iirc? might be less) as well as within 6" of every box. I agree that I'll take a tangle of wire that looks like that over flying/open splices any day of the week however. It's ugly and could use twenty bucks in staples, but it's not going to set things on fire...
 
Heat control stuff is vacuum operated. Most likely a leak somewhere in the line that goes to them.

Good place to start. i shoved my vacuum ball under the hood somewhere and the lines have popped out a time or five.
 
That looks pretty sharp!
