Good morning, all.
Boy oh boy, it looks nice out there.
Weather and coffee both at 10.
Definitely cutting that grass today. Do that...anything else I get done is gravy.

How does the pressure sensor on the spare work?

Do you have to register it, if you put it on?

I guess the truck doesn’t see the spare.
Computer only monitors 4 tires.

So when the spare gets rotated to the ground, it has to be scanned or activated or stimulated or whatever.

I didn’t pursue it beyond them clearing the alarms on the dash and seeing all four pressures displaying normally.

I have video of one of my cow dogs trying to herd a tiny fawn she found hiding in tall grass.
Refused to cooperate, kept his head down, and wouldn’t run - which completely baffled the dog.

She kept barking and jumping at the fawn, who finally sprang up and bleated loudly, and tried to head-butt the cow dog.
The fawn bravely stood his ground.

Oh, and then there was a complication - momma deer came out of the brush and was prancing and snorting.
Oh, boy…
I made it a point to call the dog off before momma taught the rude cow dog a lesson.

Toyota has the ability to program 8 sensors, but it can only read 4 at any one time.
My '08 Tacoma did have a sensor in the spare, but nothing since 2010 has... but of course the spares are space-savers and set to 60psi.

Newer Toyotas (starting around 2020) are self-programming... when you rotate the tires, or replace a sensor (with the correct part number), you hit Reset on the display and after about 10-15 miles it will automatically recognize the sensors and what corner they are installed on.

Another little pool project is to pick up some ball bearings that are around the main drains of the pool. Probably a manual pool vac fell apart at one point in the past.

Thought I came up with a good idea to rig up a magnet on the end of one of the pool poles. But nope, those damn bearings don't seem to be magnetic. I've picked up a few by hand and they seem to be stainless steel. I guess this stainless steel is not magnetic.

Looks like some diving targets.

Don't think I mentioned this yesterday, but the golf cart bag attachment and MSO came in. Bag attachment works great. But the MSO (kinda like a vehicle title) has an issue with the VIN number. The VIN number on the MSO is really just the serial number. The insurance is having an issue with that. Does not give me confidence in what the DMV will do. But waiting to hear what the insurance folks suggest. Sigh.

Need more coffee.

Whoa! That automatic sensor recognition is some crafty programming.

Morning guys.

Feeling a lot better today than yesterday! Man that shingles shot kicked my ass. Every muscle and joint was in pain yesterday. Slept 9 hours Tuesday night, a 4 hour nap yesterday, and 9 more hours last night. No fun.

Anyway, having some good coffee and watching the skies as today and tomorrow are impact days for the weather. Expecting thunderstorms across the area. Hopefully no tornadoes like they had near Tampa yesterday!

Have a good day everyone!
