Re: Frankentruck

Frankentruck made it back to Milledgeville today, but not without one issue...

I was in slow moving traffic on GA 400 waiting to get on I285. Up until then, the overdrive was working just fine. Once I got on 285 and back up to speed, I noticed it wasn't shifting at all into overdrive. Pulled off at the next exit, stopped at a gas station, popped the hood and checked to make sure the power wire was still plugged into the relay. It was, so I checked the fuse. The fuse had popped. Had to drive the rest of the way in lockout so the trip took longer, but at least I can still drive it.

I'll have to look into it more in the next week or two. Got a couple exams coming up, so probably won't figure out what went wrong until those are done
