[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1317727, member: 9096"] I notice exactly the same things, and I'm still relatively young (I shouldn't be noticing this)... I really notice it when troubleshooting something with other people.. One of my good friends is a master mechanic, and there are very few things he can't fix.. he is a RARE find. SO many people nowadays.. in the age of electronics, can't understand simple wiring diagrams and what would happen if a short/open circuit happened at various points in it.. even ELECTRICIANS. I was hired to find out why an screw type air compressor would only charge to about 20 PSI.. so first order of business was to look at the pressure switch with a voltmeter.. no power.. so I fiddle around (up on a high platform) until I find out there's just no power up there at all except for the motor power.. I go to the breaker box and find the pressure switch supply wires dangling there.. they had NEVER been connected!.. I put them on one leg of the motor wires and away it went. I billed $100 for that and the shop owner apparently grimaced a little about it.. That's just fine, if he wants to hire inept guys to fail at fixing simple problems he's welcome to it. It's always an easy fix if you know what's wrong! [/QUOTE]
