JMW picked me up and threw me in the spa fully clothed lmao it was very funny

Fiance did but hes over it now he gets a little funny

wrist is gay made dion a potato salad last night and couldnt find my potato peeler so i had to use a knife

ok boys my air con was on in my house then it started spluttering then the house lights were flickering then the air con turned off.

For the past hour the lights have been going bright then dim and the kitchen light blew then the dryer started chirping then the lounge light blew and the washing machine started chirping

WTF

Disco lights lol. I can look at your air cond if you like since that's my trade. As for your lights flickering on and off, you might have had a power surge, might have been because of the air cond, can't really say without having a look. Maybe there is a sparky on the forum that could clarify this up?

poltergeists.

if its flickering and what not, id say you've got an overload. might be worth getting someone to check inside the main switchboard. aircon could be overloading the board (which sounds unusual if its only doing it now)

legally i cant poke around behind the switchboard but that sounds like where the problem might be

I have seen this before It soudns like the neutral supply to your house has a week connection. You need a good neutral for the return circuit to work. Eg power goes to your light switch then light then to neutral. So if the neutral is not a good bond it will make the lights dip and everything wont have its full voltage. Is it worse with more turned appliances turned on. The neutral can brake at the top of the stobie pole or in you meter box. Find out if any neighbours are having the same problem. Ive seen 2 house next door have the same problem because they both shared the same neutral. It could also be the pole top transformer just about to die putting out high volts (which blows globes). If you can get a multimeter put it on AC volts and put in power point you should have between 230-250v. You will need a sparkie to check if it is your problem or etsa's then you can go from there.

snap...........that would have been my next thought actually brad............did so many service replacements over in whyalla on standby down to old broken neutrals

I guess you would see this up the pole where I would of seen this in the back of the meter box. Sounds like we need a composite crew to go have a look.

ok update the hot water taps wont turn off in the laundry and i went to have a shower befor the water ran out and got zapped hardcore it made me scream and it hurt my hand my washing machine keeps on chirping and foxtel now wont work

    • Which model Maxima? This is good knowledge to have.
    • I'm with GTS, that's not an actual overheat issue. That's an electrical issue.
    • So, it's clearly an electrical problem. Either with the gauge itself, or the sender. It appears to be voltage sensitive (ie, alternator output affects the reading.
    • Yes, at this stage of SAU threads, I  automatically assume that anyone here knows that everything depends on each and every setup and its choice of parts and what an individual wants from the setup. I think your misunderstanding what I've said, I'm not saying your curve will move to the right.. I'm stating the opposite; that my setup has a much larger turbo than my last one, my current exhaust manifold runners are 2-3x longer than the last one, the intercooler is longer and thicker (hks 103mm thick), the itbs are now oversized from 45mm up to 49mm, and the plenum is now a larger Nismo plenum that's been port matched. As a result, I'm making more power, torque and boost 1000rpm earlier than my last setup. My curve moved left, in a big way. You guys with 800-1000+hp turbos should be considering hks v-cam or the other Japanese company Sakura who makes RB25 Neo vct adaptor kits for RB26's. they all make more power / boost / torque far earlier and higher peak numbers. Dahtone Racing modifies the Hks v-cam systems to his own specs and he also developed the worlds first and best dbw individual throttle body kits, to complement his V-cam. Every single car is 800-1200+hp and they all produce huge gains in response and peak power. 
    • I have a 2008 Skyline 370gt with about 160,000 km on the clock currently. A while ago, I noticed the temp gauge would start climbing but it comes down when I give it some throttle. I took it into the shops. The technicians comments are transcripted below. Reported they couldn't find anything wrong with the vehicle mechanically and they pressure tested the cooling system. Funnily enough, the technician commented that the temperature dropped back down when the car is stationary but this is when I'd notice the temp gauge to be climbing. Just wondering if anyone else experienced anything similar to enlighten me? Cos at the onset, the temps were going up one tick and then comes back down when I step on it. Now, the temps are climbing all the way to the top of the gauge, and it's making me very nervous lol. It also doesn't come down to the neutral position anymore. PS I do have a small exhaust leak near the drivers side caused by when I got f**ked by a really steep driveway at a mall I never visited before. Not sure if this would affect the sensor. Technician comments: Check and verify Fan/Cooling system - ALL OK max 106*C and fans operating at 100% Cools down right away. Checked Fan Operation - 55%@101*C, 85% @ 104*C and 100% @ 105*C Vehicle did not exceed these temperatures with max load. Temperature recovered back to 99*C after fan operation while vehicle Stationary.
