JorjaHello16:08
JorjaMy friend brought a truck and the ABS light is on (it is not on when the truck is first started). The truck is a 95 Chevy S10. Where should they start looking for what might be wrong with the brakes as the truck stops just fine?16:08

furySorry Jorja--not sure if there'd be anyone around that knows. This channel is mainly about automotive software. (Automotive Grade Linux & GENIVI)18:21
furyWould be neat if there was a channel to go to for mechanical help, tho. I've got a leak in the compressor and condenser of my AC, basically means I can't drive the car until it gets below 60 :P18:22
furyOr pay a couple grand for someone else to fix it for me18:23
JorjaIt is not my truck18:35

smurrayheh, my rental for the week is a Nissan, it's not obvious to me if you can listen to the radio or XM and have navigation instructions come in from your phone over Bluetooth22:33
smurrayit didn't seem to work on first blush, had to switch source over to BT audio22:34
mdpmranostay: an am/FM radio with analog presets even counts :)22:34
mranostaymdp: well i did take out that crappy stock cd player/radio22:35
mranostaymainly just to have audio in jack22:35

mdpBa dum bump *splash*22:51
mranostaymdp: canadian dollar is pegged to the North Korean Won, right?22:51
smurraymranostay: I could stand the Canadian dollar not being quite as strong, it's rallied a bunch the last month22:54
mranostaysmurray: i guess getting paid in US dollars changes one's outlook :)22:57
smurraymranostay: yep!22:57
