Avital remote starts up and shuts off
If your Avital remote start system is starting up and then immediately shutting off, it could be due to a few different issues. One possibility is that there is a problem with the system's wiring, which could be causing a short circuit or other electrical issue. Another possibility is that there is a problem with the ignition switch or other components in the vehicle's electrical system.
To diagnose and fix the issue, it is recommended to bring your vehicle to a certified installer or mechanic who has experience with Avital remote start systems. They can perform a thorough inspection of the system and vehicle to determine the root cause of the issue and recommend the appropriate repairs.
Humidifier motor
The Kenmore 758.144161 is a humidifier that uses a motor to operate its fan and other components. If you are experiencing issues with the motor, there are several possible causes and solutions:
- Check the power supply: Make sure the humidifier is properly plugged in and that the outlet is working. If the motor is not getting power, it will not function.
- Clean the motor: If the motor is clogged with dirt or debris, it may not be able to spin properly. Use a soft brush or cloth to gently clean the motor.
- Lubricate the motor: Over time, the motor may become dry and require lubrication to spin smoothly. Use a light machine oil to lubricate the motor.
- Replace the motor: If the motor is damaged or worn out, it may need to be replaced. Contact Kenmore customer service or a qualified repair technician for assistance.
Note: Always disconnect the power supply before attempting to clean or replace the motor to avoid electrical shock.
Where do I send the unit in for service (factory)
I'm sorry, but I would need more information about the specific unit you are referring to in order to provide an accurate answer.
Generally speaking, the manufacturer's website or customer support line should have information on where to send a unit for service. You can also try searching for the nearest authorized service center or dealer using the manufacturer's website or a search engine.
If you can provide me with more details about the unit, including the brand and model number, I may be able to provide more specific guidance.
Simpson autosensing 512 dryer not heating
If your Simpson autosensing 512 dryer is not heating, there could be several reasons why. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue:
- Check the power supply: Make sure that the dryer is plugged in and that the circuit breaker or fuse hasn't tripped. If the dryer is not getting power, it will not heat up.
- Check the lint filter: A clogged or dirty lint filter can reduce airflow and cause the dryer to overheat, which can trip the thermal fuse and prevent the dryer from heating. Clean the lint filter and check the exhaust vent to make sure it is not clogged.
- Check the thermal fuse: The thermal fuse is a safety feature that is designed to prevent the dryer from overheating. If the thermal fuse is blown, the dryer will not heat up. You can check the thermal fuse with a multimeter to see if it has continuity. If it does not, it needs to be replaced.
- Check the heating element: The heating element is the part of the dryer that actually heats up the air. If the heating element is faulty, the dryer will not heat up. You can test the heating element with a multimeter to see if it has continuity. If it does not, it needs to be replaced.
- Check the thermostat: The thermostat is another safety feature that is designed to prevent the dryer from overheating. If the thermostat is faulty, it can cause the dryer to not heat up. You can test the thermostat with a multimeter to see if it has continuity. If it does not, it needs to be replaced.
If you are not comfortable troubleshooting your dryer yourself, it is recommended to contact a professional appliance repair technician to diagnose and fix the issue.
