:hello:

Well, I didn't even get to take the Z out last night. In a fitting end to a shitty week, the dehumidifier arrived with some damage to the box and plastic housing around the top. I disassembled it to make sure nothing serious appeared damaged and then repaired the housing so it would be secure & the crack was glued shut.

Then I asked my wife if she wanted to come for a drive and I backed the car out of the garage and she got in... And the garage door wouldn't shut. The safety sensors again. :mad:

I had cleaned & realigned them like 2 weeks ago and have had the garage door open and closed several times even though the red sensor was blinking - which should not have happened. But it did, several times in a row. Until last night...

So I had my wife help me park the car across the street and called the garage door people & they replaced the sensors. I could easily have done it myself but they showed up with parts and had it done in about 15 minutes.

I just got done reassembling the dehumidifier & hooking up the drain hose to the sump pit, and it seems to be working fine. :tup:

I hope the rest of my day goes smoothly and I get to drive the Z later. I guess I did drive it about 75 feet yesterday. :rolleyes:

Hair has been cut. Coffee has been consumed. Hands are still in tact from not dealing with molex cable.

The female plug end is a real pain to get back in. BE SURE TO PUT THE TOP IN FIRST!!! then the bottom latch will catch. The passenger side is a nightmare because of a wire harness running right in the way where you have to try and snake your hands in to push the bottom of the plug. It is not fun lol

Might it just be easier to spice into the factory wiring pre Molex? Thinner wire could still be ok with such a short run.

Yeah, I would guess if you stay at or under 50W RMS no need to run new cable.

This video helped me a lot if you decide to do it though.

Yep, I ripped that series to my desktop. Good info. I'm going to be RMSn' around 80, so I was doomed to digit damage from the get-go.
