How to replace 30 amp fuse under gas tank after rectifier burned up.
Hello Gina!! I'm Sebastián, Ducati desert sled rider!! I just watched the video, it was an excellent ride, what a good video! When you start a new motorcycle adventure
@@sebastianmonsalves6909 Hi!! I’m coming back in December to help Andrés move some motorcycles from Southern Chile through Patagonia and back to Santiago. I’m so excited!!
@@ginalimbrick Oh, wow! That's great! I hope you share it on RUclips! .How long will you be in Chile?
@@sebastianmonsalves6909 Andrés said 2-3 week ride!
There was an easier. Way you should have just cut right down the middle of the board then put your crowbar in there in the whole thing folds up on itself and pulls right out. I do this for a living so it only takes two minutes.
Thanks!
My problem is the frame is all rotten out😱
Just replace the rotten wood first. Definitely adds more work but I'm sure you can do it!
Gracias 🫂
So how did you know it was this and before when you turned the key you got no power? And after now you did?
I knew my battery was good so then I double checked my fuses and luckily that was it!
Thanks
Glad it helped!
Can you do this if the top Of the window is against wood? Do you have to use something else to secure it if wood?
My best guess would be to shim it, use expandable foam, cut excess and then use silicone caulk. Hope this helps!
This is one of the better videos on how to do this. Never use wood in a glass block install as some suggest. A glass block window is "set" in mortar, just as you did. One pointer here...on the wood, before the install, waterproof it. Brush on Redgard, imbed Schluter membrane, use taping knife to squeeze out excess. Then roll or brush Redgard over the membrane, allow to dry. This will allow the mortar to "bite," it will adhere just like it does on the cinder block. Before you place the window...nail in 8 brick ties, two on left and right side, and two on top and bottom. This will fasten the window mechanically to the building structure. Add these two items to this install and you have a pro install. Great work Gina!
Great tips, thanks!
Ok! It looks it it doesn’t need a frame just measure the opening and mortar. I live in an older house and called and they want to charge me $2000 and said that they had to replace the wood framing. I think that you completely removed the wood frame and used the mortar and caulk around the window correct.😮
@@yvettekammie8869How many glass block windows are you getting replaced?
if you cut the 2x4s, from the old window frame, in half with the sawzall, they would have come out much easier
Cute ass!
She puts in clothes to wash first then goes to remodel. Love it😂
OMG, I’m so sorry, this was my first video, I filmed it the wrong way and then realized you could hear the laundry! 😂
@@ginalimbrick Don’t apologize I love it! YOURE GETTING THINGS DONE ✅
@@squirrelgirl1712 Thank you! 🤗
Great video! I may have to do the same @ my rental property. How long did this job take? You have to let the mortar dry before applying the caulk correct?
2 days for both windows. The longest time spent was in the demo of the existing frame. Yes, let the mortar dry first then caulk.
How to buff a scratch out of one of them windows
You should always put a vent it.
Glad I watched this. Def hiring this shit out.
You are my beauty. Thanks
Glad I could help!
Hey ..what else did you replace? ..just the rectifier and the fuse?
So I replaced the rectifier and fuse and that lasted about 1 year with continuous jump starts even with a new battery! I had to eventually replace the stator also. Now it’s perfect!
I'd use foam seal on wood to keep moisture from sill plate.
Foam is undefeated
Not afraid of pretty long hair getting dusty..
Thanks for the video
Hope it helped a little!
“ I can’t believe this is my life right now”what a great comment at such an amazing location!
I am just so thankful for every opportunity i have and definitely don’t take it for granted! 😁
Hilarious and informative. Lovin it
Thanks! Glad someone gets my humor! 😂
Great video Gina! Very impressive 👍
Thanks! Not too bad for my first one!
awesome video. Let's do the best of the world, Nepal ;)
Nicely done! Great job!
Thanks!
Wow, loved this! Staying tuned to follow your next adventures. Rock & Ride on!
Thanks!!
Hi Gina! Our condo management has broken our basement window twice when they replaced the back steps on our patio. Our metal window frame is so old and rusty (1973 install on the condo) and we were thinking of going with a glass block upgrade but we aren't sure that would work out too well. That window sits right behind the back steps and there is no way of getting behind it. What option would you choose?
You could install it from the inside however you would still need to mortar the exterior. If that’s not an option maybe you could just clean up and paint the metal frame. If it’s behind the steps then can you see it at all from the outside?
If I interpreted the background noise correctly you were doing a load of laundry while installing a window. Multitasking FTW!
Haha! I didn’t realize how loud it was going to be 🤦🏻♀️
We’re do I buy the glass blocks
I measured first and then ordered them from Home Depot. They are heavy so I had them shipped to my house. They arrived in perfect condition.
Thanks for posting!
Looks like you are going to a party after you finish the video because you went from step #1 all the way to step #5 You never mentioned how important is to how measure you window before buy the new one You never explain what type of mortar is for the job You just appears inside the basement and then appears outside the basement Worst video ever
Sorry I couldn’t help you out!
6 minutes of taking one window out...🥱🤦♂️
For the ones who have never done this before, or are afraid to try…step by step. Good thing you have a choice to watch it or not 😁
Thanks for the tips.
Hey all you cool cats and kittens!
Ok, that was funny 😂
can u put these in a wood frame,for house window
Yes, I had a wood frame around the opening I could have left in place however I wanted a clean look and didn’t want the maintenance of painting and possible bugs.
nice safety glasses
I guess theoretically you could rip some hardy plank or hardy backer board into a 1x4 and secure it with masonry screws around the frame of the window and then put the window in for tight fit and then add mortar. When you say mortar would a modified thinset be ideal or unmodified?
Thanks, I finally found my safety glasses 😂 I just used the quikrete mortar mix. I suppose the modified could be better but I’m not sure.
What kind of mortar did you use?
I used Quikrete mortar. I’m sure there are better options but so far so good and no water issues.
Our house basement had mold from glass block windows, no ventilation. We had to remove two blocks and put in a open/close vent. I noticed that you took out a vented window and sealed it with a solid block window.
No ventilation=mold. I have other ventilation as well as heat and a dehumidifier. Sorry about your experience, but glad you got it figured out!
Thank you so much for your video ! I was stumped on where the hell the “main” fuse was. It was pretty easy after that, to fix “except” getting the fuse cap to open, as you said.
I’m so happy it helped even with my bad video skills 😂
Just had my rectifier catch on fire as well, tried everything and am hoping this solves it 😭 apparently there was a recall for the rectifier for 09-12
It’s pretty crazy when you’re going over 100mph on the racetrack and all of a sudden you have smoke in your face 😂 This should definitely fix it, haven’t had a problem since I replaced it and the fuse. Good luck!
Gina Limbrick thanks for the good luck it worked ! You’re absolutely right that smoke scared the hell outta me and I worked and stressed over this bike for weeks trying to figure it out and every shop was completely full to take it in
@@Jack_guerra Yay!!
@@ginalimbrickwhat specifically can I do to avoid that or other problems
The most important thing in the case of a regulator rectifier is to make sure it is mounted somewhere where it gets air flow. In my case my shop mounted it behind my race fairing with zero air and it got way too hot and caught on fire.
hey gina forgot to mention concrete is not waterproof and have seen many youtube videos of these windows leaking through the concrete,,should that ever happen just paint the mortar and that seals it,,i always paint the outside mortar and yet to have a leaker,,best of luck
nice job but why in the world would you rip out the wood frame if it was rotten,,all you had to do is put screws halfway into the wood frame place window in place ad mortar and your done,,been doing windows like that for years the mortar bonds to the screws making it rock solid and yet to ever see any separation from wood and mortar,,good job though
Obviously I’m not a pro however my goal was to eliminate any wood products that might cause me issues later (rot) as well as maintenance (painting). Just wanted a clean look. Thanks for the compliment and your idea is great as well!
Did you use a special kind of mortar around the perimeter of the window? Can you tell me which porter you did use?
I used Quikrete Mortar where you just add water.
YOU ARE AMAZING, THANK YOU
I’m a dingus and in a dark garage hooked my battery charger up backwards (reversed polarity). Got no power on key turn even with a new battery, and all fuses in the fuse box under the seat were fine. Finally found this video and it’s exactly as you described, the 30A fuse blew under the tank. Thank you very very much!
Yay!! Awesome and so glad the video helped!
I did this shit today mate. im praying to god to not blow the cdi but just the goddamm fuse!! =///////
Love u thanks
Dirt-bike gloves AND sunglasses? Coolest contractor I've ever seen. Plus it sounds like she's doing laundry at the same time. Good job!
SlimDoug Maddox Haha! First time doing a DIY video and I learned a lot about making them! Sorry about the noise 😂
I’ve learned alot
You might have used a 1x4 under your sill plate to fill the large gap between your window and sill plate. It would better balance the mortar line around the window just for aesthetics.
did you slope the outside mortar to push rain away from pooling at the base of the window?
Daniel weis Yes I did! I should have mentioned that, good call!
Cool nice job!
