I know I come up with some random topics, but our central AC/ furnace is malfunctioning. 

The problem is that the fan will not turn off at all. It still blows cold air and all but the only way to turn it off is to flip the breaker. Tried replacing the thermostat in hopes of a cheap fix and of course that didn't work. Really don't want to call a repairmen out after taking it in the ass on taxes last month. Husband is sort of handy so if we can DIY this it would be great. 

 
@2earls  Had this happen once, and it ended up being a stuck fan relay.   Sucks when stuff goes out!  My system just died and having to wait and wait and wait and wait for all the warranty stuff to go through so the units can get replaced.  SO ANNOYING dealing with warranty sometimes.  Side note: never buy LG lol. 

 
@DoomKittythat's what the husband thinks it is. I am clueless and only found out today we have to get on the roof to access it. I don't know if he's up to it after working 6 days this week but I will offer to hold the ladder. I'm not scared of heights but I am old enough to wonder if I should be climbing ladders. Besides I have nothing to offer other than moral support. 

So you replaced yours rather than fixing it? I wonder if it is an easy repair or way over our heads?

 
@2earls  Oh i fixed it.   I had a friend help me who knows more about that kind of thing.  With the type i had at the time it was pretty easy.  At least from what i remember lol.  It was at a different place i lived a while ago.   Where i live now has those mini-splits things.  But the units are leaking freon apparently and have to get replaced, so for now I'm making do with a window unit.  At least it's not heaps hot yet where i live.  You could probably google the model number to see how easy of a fix for your unit it would be.  I think with mine i even found a youtube vid with my same model which makes it lots easier.

  1. LW815 @ LW815: Quality* but he’s 100% right and doesn’t seem like he’s accusing his tests of being fake but rather warning to make sure he’s following the directions correct and that many tests are actually shit. It’s honestly solid advice, but I’m sure peanut knows his shit and has quality tests that he’s properly using and had accurate results. As the claim made I also had what I believe was the same issue with the same magazine(different edition) with the same publisher
  2. LW815 @ LW815: I don’t think that’s what Cal meant. Some tests are qualify for sure, but I was convinced something I had was testing positive myself and it turns out the tests I had just test everything +. Plain water and redbull contained it, according to the many tests I ran.
  3. Stims King @ Stims King: @Sinnin try me
  4. Sinnin @ Sinnin: Can anyone point me towards some RC stims please? I would greatly appreciate it.
  5. P @ peanut: @Aarfgh fr bro we supposed to use 10 tests on 1 pill? Lol
  6. A @ Aarfgh: lol @ claiming fettuccine tests be fake vs pnut's far more believable claim?! the gall, sir.
  7. P @ peanut: @CalFresh - i tested 3 pills . All + for fent. I tested 1 tylenol - negative for fent.
  8. CalFresh @ CalFresh: @peanut just be careful to follow test kit directions closely. many of those tests were rigged by the Mfr's to default to. positive to avoid liability issues etc. Many false positives due to improper dilution volume etc.
  9. P @ peanut: Test all pills even if from a reputable vendor with over 1k posts. Test for Fettuccine. Vendor gets mad I called him out. Got refund. Fuck him :mad:
