Why not just vent the thing thru a wall instead of up and out? I don’t get contractors who vent a dryer thru a roof or using feet and feet of line. Put the laundry room on an exterior wall. Done.

That’s one of the old school pgps. I liked those nozzles a lot better. That’s what I grew up with. Sucks how they don’t make them anymore. I usually just use a keyboard duster.

Yes! It fixed mine. Had to do it with an empty water bottle and not it works fine. Thanks!

This is only a problem for pgp’s as it’s the only one that has no flat head slots, this is why I don’t use pgp’s unless I really have to

I purchased that Apollo tool 3 years ago and I NEVER had any problems with it. 🤷🏿‍♂️🤷🏿‍♂️🤷🏿‍♂️🤷🏿‍♂️🤷🏿‍♂️

The app no longer appears on Google app store

I’m going to try this this week!!! I’ll comment when done!!!

Just used this fix, and my SodaStream is good to go. I had to run through the procedure twice. I plan to do this twice a year to keep it clear.

Lucky you!!!!

What would cause this to happen? Same thing happened to my 2023 ascent. All lights (check engine, RAB off, eyesight off, etc) were all on.

I am a DIY and i have had similar instance, but I would press and turn that same twisty.

i bet this is why they dont want you using the syrup first only after then it clogs everything up?

Sorry to say, but your entire vent system is not up to code. There’s quite a few things you may want to consider. The duct used looks to be a thin gauge aluminum rather than 28 gauge required by IRC. The joints on the elbows and connections are not sealed properly. More importantly, Inline booster fans are no longer approved by the IRC and most every dryer manufacturer states to not use them in the manual. The one you have is not designed for a dryer exhaust and is not capable of handling the heat or lint. Also the fan being that close to the dryer is does not increase the air speed whatsoever. They were designed to be installed a minimum of 15 feet from the dryer to assist the air as it slowed. Installing one closer than that can damage the dryer. The dryer you have is more than capable of pushing 65ft+. You can verify this info by looking up your dryers model number. I will say you did great by replacing the foil venting with semi rigid as the foil really increases the static pressure leading to more lint accumulation. My suggestion would be to remove the fan, seal all joints and seams and install a single damper style exterior cover. If your set on using a inline fan I’d suggest looking into a code improved Dedpv but imo it’s completely unnecessary with your vent setup.

Thank you, oh so very much! FINALLY FIXED! I wish I could give ten thousand thumbs up!

The dealership guy told me to wait 4 days, dont do a reset, wait and see he said. Gas cap loose = need to reset the car CPU, seems BS.

I have had no problems with it for two years now. I also don’t put a “ton” of pressure on it. Define a “ton”.

Dammit, it worked! Thanks!!!

I had ALL my dashboard icons come on AND EYESIGHT off… and yes, did the same thing and it fixed the issue. Can you imagine how much a dealership would have tried to get out of someone?

This is good information. We need to do this.

I have tried powering off the entire car. The problem goes away the first time I start it, but reappears the second time I start it.

This was incredibly helpful. Even after 8 years! Thanks for posting!

FYI - In future one small suggestion- use one short wood while compressing to keep strut straight like 90 degree. And other one long wood along floor jack and tie wood at top using rope with strut so when removing strut it doesn’t spring backwards(expand) all of sudden and then floor jack to release the spring pressure.

What brand struts did you use? I’m not happy with either OEM. Nor lucky on aftermarket(TRQ) one. Appreciate your feedback on what did you use. ACURA struts are too soft. Poor quality spring by OEM in my opinion. Or it may be just me.

Thanks for putting my verbal into great video.

Also you could use something to tie around wood at and strut to keep together.

Use folded thick cloth under the wood on knuckle towards brake rotor side to prevent wood sliding to have upward slope. Thanks for making this video.

Or just cock everything

Replacing the springs every 5/7 years is best for dependable service 😊

Nice work.

It worked. Thank you.

Haha. I did get lucky, but I did it on both sides, and the other just took a little bit of persuasion. I would do it this way every time vs. trying to smack the knuckle apart.

I actually saw that comment you referred to about someone explaining this way and thought "darn wish there was a video of that" haha thanks for making this! Not sure if Im going to take this route though...looked tricky. You got so lucky when it fell in 😂

Light stayed off. Totally fixed and back to normal 2 weeks and 2k later.

Try Go Brewing, Best Day Brewing, Untitled Art, WellBeing, as well as imports from Germany and Poland. Way better than anything from Athletic or macro breweries. ProofNoMore has a good selection of you live in the US.

Is there any update on this? Did the lights come back again?

My Apollo is about 15 yrs old and still going but I tend to mainly use solid rings and just use your crimps in tight spaces.

But a Pex crimper that look like bolt cutters. They actually work. I always use solid rings as well. The rings he’s using in the video won’t pass the code in my area.

Same boat. I'd rather get something new that works. Returning things invoves communications, weighing, postal cost, waiting.. screw it.

I have not broke mine yet, but I have had it lock up. This mostly happens when one handle is up against a wall. It does the job (most of the time), but it is a poor design.

Thanks, got the trimmer plus and was quickly welcomed to the monopoly world of attachments…

One thing I did was tape plastic sheeting in different portions of the shower and watched if the leak continued. This allowed me to eventually find the bad area and get after it.

I highly recommend it. Best of both worlds!

I have both I'll try it

same with the craftsman 18" 42 cc. A lot of their parts are the same as this one I have noticed.

At what point do americans just admit that a vented clothes dryer... a machine with a 6,000 watt red hot heating element that blows 100% of that expensive electric heat energy out of a 4" hole in the wall... is maybe a worse idea than *dehumidifying* the moisture out of the clothes with a heat pump dryer? Switzerland admitted it in like 1997 lol.. but then, they're an *actually developed* nation. Seriously, heat pump dryers make sense!

Blowing the hot air directly out of your building is such a waste of energy. Better use a heat pump dryer.

By showing what was built up in your rigid pipe you disproved every thing you were claiming about the flex hose.

If you put a match to that old vent hose, you will have an eye-opening experience. Don't use that cheap crap.

Got a link to the Amazon listing?

You should put that lint trap in front of your $100 in-line booster, that way it doesn't get clogged up.
