Inside the van it's 20 degrees hotter. So I got a 12v fan. Bliss. when you leave a 120 degree attic, 110 actually feels nice. 90 consecutive days over 100 degrees last year. We're trying to break the record this year.

Failure To Launch

Another ridiculous project that cost me time and money
 Here's Oggy trying to fix his tail lights. This is a brutal project because the problem is a brand new Chinese part that can only be replaced with another brand new Chinese part that will also be crappy. So, it's dollar store manufacturing being applied to pre-digital ford technology. That equals problems as no tail lights and no turn signals are caused by failure of the tines to properly connect to the contacts on the turn signal cam. If I were a man with no regard for the environment or humanity I would set about properly manufacturing the turn signal cams that actually work. But since I am Oggy I will repeatedly repair the broken Chinese part with hours of brainstorming.
How am I checking the tail light? By propping a mirror up behind the van.
