Mice
I am so upset today. I have had troubles with my van the past two days! I just found out from my wonderful husband.... that mice have made a big mess in the brain box or where the computer is stored, by eating wires. No F****** wonder the thing doesn't run right and yes I just vented big time! Thanks for listening.

Re: Mice
Thanks! No, a very cheep fix but very time consuming too. gmc48fan used this liquid coating stuff and coated every wire, let it dry, and then wrapped each wire with electical tape. Problem solved and my van is back to running normal. Thank godness too because even though I could not diganose the problem I knew there was something wrong.

Re: Mice
Crazy!!! My van has gremlins......the lights will just turn themself on, interior or exterior...sometimes both at the same time.
Can park the van, have everything turned off. Double check everything is off and look outside later and the lights are on, but switches are off.
Today, I have no lights at all....but that's not to say that later they will be working again
I have no clue........... maybe I should look for a mouse nest?

Re: Mice
not mice! gremlins. its all about those nasty like devents. they love to mess with all that stuff. on a bright sunny day they love to turn my windshield wipers on full blast. I can almost hear them giggling while i try to make them stop. if you catch the ones that are messing with you let me know. i want to tie one or two to my windshield wipers. then drive through a hurricane or something with them on there. it would be my turn to giggle.

I am sorry to hear about your situation. Are you sure it was mice?
It sounds like chip monks to me ! |

Re: Mice
Honestly, they're on my sh*t list And as soon as I can get everyhing out of my garage I will be fixing it so they cannot get in again, every little crack and hole will be filled in with concrete....that should keep them out. LOL the little ba*tards have pissed me off and I won't take it anymore.

Re: Mice
Buy the sticky paper that catches their little feet with glue so they won't be able to run off. Line the whole garage with them to make sure they don't get past anything. lol Heard it is great for catching gremlins too!

gee now I know why some garages look so tacky!
2 rules
1. alternate tacky sheets with none so you can step through the garage
2. sticky side up
remember once they are trapped, do not feed them! |

LOL! Great stuff! I think as a last resort I may have to try the sticky tack sheets...but for now I parked my brothers old car there for them and they can nest in it instead. (The bro may not like it but it won't sit there for too long then either  hehee
