I have a 7 1/2 ft J. Smith Xmas tree. The lights working fine until I put my tree topper on which lights up using an extension cord. I bent top branch that sticks up.

As soon as I straightened the branch back the light all went out except for the topper.

SOURCE: i have a 2007 kia spectra my tire pressure warning light went on

check not only the tires on the car, check the level on the spare tire to, cause some of those have the sensors also... most cars will reset the light once you have the pressures right and drive on the tires a few miles to reset the light.... hope this helps you..

Please check out this link. http://www.obd-codes.com/p0500 The code meens that the computer is not getting a good signal from the VSS, Vehicle speed sensor. Your VSS should be located on the transmission unless it is 4wd, then it will be on the transfer case. It is easy to replace. A single bolt holds it in, it has a connector plugged into it that has 3 wires. They are usually located towards the aft end of the tranny on the drivers side, not certain if that is where yours is or not. Hope this helps.

Jaclyn Smith 7 ft Stratford slim pine Christmas tree, need help with connecting lights

Plug in the lights to make sure all the bulbs are working. Starting at the top of the tree, intertwine the lights on top of and under branches. Work your way down and around the tree, hanging lights in the back as well. When you reach the bottom, hide any extra lights behind the tree

I have a 15-20 ft. pine tree. We recently trimmed alot off the bottom of it and now the healthy branches on the tree are turning brown. Is my tree dying?

Pine trees seal themselves with sap fairly quick so you don't have to worry. If the needles are turning yellow and dropping it could be experiencing some shock or it may just be dropping needles for the fall.
If the needles are actually turning brown, check the trunk and branches for signs of boring insect damage such as hole with sap coming out.

Mount pickup bed topper

Iwingman: You can do a temporary installation which will hold it just fine or more perminant depending on the amount of tape you use, if you do the following: Get a roll of "two way tape" The tape comes in various widths. Measure the width of the top of the bed rail and that will be the width you ask for. If they don't have any wide enough, get two rolls which will add up to the desired width. Most suppliers for automotive shops will carry this and it is a guarantee that an automotive paint supplier will have it. Make sure you have enough to cover the length of both bed rails and accross the front of the top of the bed if you plan to make this a perminant installation. Aside from the two way tape, buy some "C" clamps, or you can go to a place that sells camper tops and they have special clamps designed for holding down tops to the beds. Buy some paint mixing sticks which can be used to place between the fiberglass top and the clamp face to eliminate potential damage.
NOW, using a solvent cleaner to remove all wax and grease, plus wash all dirt from both surfaces of the top of the bed and the bottom of the topper where it will be sitting on the bed. Make sure you have the topper sitting on some saw horses or some other place where there is little exposure to the bottom surface.
Install the two way tape on the top surface of the bed where it will be mating with the top. Making sure that where you are is not subject to a lot of trash blowing around. You will need the assistance of one person or more depending on how awkward and heavy the top is. Make a dry run first. Before removing the protective cover from the tape, You can carefully see what will work the easiest in setting the top in place on the truck. It can be done in sections, in a manner of speaking. After deciding the easiest route, place paint sticks down at least 50% of the length of the bed. Peel the protective surface from the two way tape at the beginning surface you had decided will be the starting point for you installation. Only remove a few inches of the protective covering. This way you have an out should you feel your getting in trouble.
As you slowly lower the top down, peel the protective covering down and back towards you.The sticks are a safety measure which can be removed as you go along, slowly lowering the top onto the tape until it is sitting fully and firmly on the bed of the truck. Then go inside the bed and start working your way around the inside of the top of the bed, pushing firmly on the top to help it seat and attach to the two way tape. If all is done properly, you will probably think that the tape alone will hold the top. Don't risk it! It will be obvious how to place the clamps. Just make sure that you put the paint sticks between the top and the surface of the clamps. If you happen to have purchased the actual clamps that are used in top installations, just follow their instructions in how to utilize their clamps. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN!

Rear hatch window installation

To install, get about 1/4" cord(rope will work), put the seal on the window, put the cord in the SEAL, where it seals to the CAB, have someone hold the window up to the back of the cab for you. You want the cord to meet at the top in the center. Try and get the window on the frame as much at the top as possible, then start pulling the cord. Be careful, a medium sized flat screwdriver will help too. The object is to get the cord to pull the seal around the frame of the window for you without using the screwdriver. You can use the screwdriver to help, but careful, it'll rip the seal very easily

When I worked in a bodyshop, we would grease up the cord with white grease, but I've done it without it. You just have to be real careful.
