  1. Located between Grants and Gallup, the Zuni Mountains are a 60-mile-long, forested mountain range (part of the Cibola National Forest). Mount Sedgwick is the highest point at 9,256 feet. The area features ponderosa pine, red mesas, and an extensive network of hiking and mountain biking trails.

  6. Nestled at the edge of the 3.3-million-acre Gila National Forest, Silver City blends rugged Wild West history with a vibrant, welcoming arts scene. Just a scenic four-hour drive south from Albuquerque or two-and-a-half hours from El Paso, it is the ultimate high-desert escape.

  7. Hype for the Future 100Q: Indiana State Road 135

    Introduction Within the State of Indiana, State Road 135 is situated to the east of SR 37 but to the west of Route 31. SR 135 traverses the regions of Central and Southern Indiana, exclusively south of Indianapolis, until reaching the Ohio River and thus being forced to become Kentucky State Route 79. Attractions Within the Southern Indiana portion of State Road 135, travelers can expect to pass through iconic historical communities such as Corydon, Salem, and Vallonia on the journey […]

  8. Looks like the #Renault #Scenic 2 is leaking oil.

    I was able to confirm my gearbox reverse light switch repair and gearbox oil change are not the source of this (gearbox still full, lowest spot of the engine is just at the gearbox darin plug thats why the oil goes there).

    Cleaned the accessible bottom part of the engine, found that the gaskets of the oil stick failed so ordered a new one and found out that the oil is actually coming right from the top of the engine. To access this part, a special nut and a new air inlet gasket are required. Waiting for those now...

    According to some online sources, the screws that hold on the cover are not sealed/tend to leak around the screw head. So just removing one at a time, cleaning the surface and reassembling them with a bit of "gasket maker" could fix this. Cleaning is useful anyways to find out where exactly the oil comes from if this does not fix it.

  9. Here we go... for some reason the engine must be running to get error codes from the ECU. I can't clear them while the engine is running and I cannot access the ECU with the engine off. Maybe something about can bus gateways?

    DF232 is the sensor connector (ordered a new one, readings are ok if zip tied in place).

    DF1070 seems to be "AC compressor took too much power" e.g. to disable the AC in case the compressor broke. I was told that the detection is not great and it sometimes just triggers. There seems to be a software update to improve this detection, but I need to get it from a Renault dealership.

    I'll replace the broken connector and try to find a way to reset the ECU DTCs next. Baybe it works with the "default" OBD2 setting or I need to enable some CAN gateway switches...

  10. Temporarily reassembled this mess... but was interrupted by rain. Can't run the engine with some plastic covering the currently non-waterproof front of the car. Moving parts, hot etc...

    So I switched the reverse light switch and its connector last week.

    Indeed, the parking brake was unhappy about the inconsistent signals.

    Reverse light works again.

    ASR is happy after driving a few meters.

    Apparently there is the option for TPMS but they are not fitted. Ok, I dont care.

    Apparently there is a short for the steering column lock sensor. I will ignore this one for now.

    The #iCarsoft thingy can show/plot the climate request signal. As the fan blew 100% in the meantime but just for 1 day I assume the climate controls have a bad CAN bus contact/loose connector.

  11. Please applaud my elaborate oil filling contraption. I spared no expense and bought a new funnel.

    Yay 🍾Indeed, the switch AND the connector were bad. And the transmission got new oil, while at it.

    The switch indicates reverse (pin 1 white and 2 yellow bridged) and neutral (pin 2 yellow and 3 brown bridged).

    This explains the "catastrophic electric handbrake meltdown service immediately" display in case the car is on a red light in idle. The car wants to engage the electric brake but is missing this signal and is soooo sad.

  12. Hmmm... why is the connector for the magnetic clutch unplugged and grinding on the drive belt? 🤔

    If plugged in, and driven by a lab PSU I hear a click and it draws ~50 W.

    So I guess at least the magnetic clutch thingy and wiring is good.

    So I need to debug this at the CAN bus level and see why it does not switch on.

    As the replacement connector for the reverse light switch will arrive next week I can stop here for now, and do a fun thing. Like watch paint dry...

  13. The #Renault #Scenic II saga continues.

    Yay, I got the correct reverse light switch.
    Nay, there is a bad contact in the connector in addition to the original reverse light switch not working.

    Done:
    - replace protection and switching unit (original one is fine)
    - fix unit connectors (someone damaged the old ones)
    - get new cover/enclosure (someone broke the old ones)
    - replace battery mount bolts (had to drill them out due to rust)
    - replace headlight bulbs (they failed, just to annoy me)
    - derusted (left) wheelhouse mounting bracket (most rusty part on this car I am aware of)

    TODOs:
    - paint wheelhouse mounting bracket
    - replace reverse light switch connector
    - test new reverse light switch with new connector
    - replace reverse light switch in gearbox
    - swap gearbox oil
    - debug AC magentic switch (the thing that started all of this)
    - mount towbar + wire trailer outlet
    - mount bumper, headlights, ...
