    No over the air reception

    Went out this weekend and had no over the air reception. Checked all the connections and that the booster was putting out 12 volts to the antenna amplifier. Climbed up on the roof and the coax cable had completely disconnected from the antenna. Reconnected the cable and problem was fixed.

    Tire pressure monitor

    I have a TST tire monitor. One of the tires was showing a higher temperature and pressure gain than the other three tires. Turns out that that tire has a bulge on the inside side of the sidewall. Wouldn't have reason to check without the monitor. Fortunately the tire didn't blow. Towmax...

    Spare Tire Carrier Dropping On Its Own

    Not sure if this belongs here. We stopped for lunch and the spare tire was hanging down. It hadn't hit the gerund yet, but was close. The spare tire carrier is a style that cranks up and down similar to the spare tire on Ford trucks. Is there away to prevent this? How common is?
