It was 83° today and a bit humid, I was disappointed because I couldn't open my windows : (I don't know who else is far enough in the NE to get this bullshit weather, but goddamn it's cold today.
The back driver's door of the daily was frozen solid, so I gave up trying to open it.
When I got back into the car, it claimed that door was open, so I gave it a little pop and the warning went away.
I get to work and can't lock the car because it thinks it's open again... I don't want to pop it again because I figure the alarm will just go off whenever it decides it isn't closed again.
So I smack the trim to break the door free and open the door... But now it won't latch closed because the latch was frozen "open" since I first pulled the handle...
I cobble together a makeshift deicer sprayer from an old water bottle and some washer fluid, and punch a hole in the lid with a pen and start spraying inside the handle and inside the door latch, and work the latch with a stick/occasional door slam for the next 30 minutes until it finally unfreezes and latches. Walk into work 30 minutes late and without feeling in my fingers. Great start to the day.
Anyway, fuck that, it's the weekend now

The driver side back door on my wagon still doesn't open for some reason, no ice needed

Everything needs an override, so you can simply tell the appliancemobile that one owns in theory, but not practice, to shut up and do what you told it to.🥰 1Leave a comment:
