Best advice.

Best advice to you but wrong in so many levels.

You don't advice a married man or woman to be independent. It's better to tell them to get a divorce than encourage them to do what will further separate them.

I understand what you are going through and it is not entirely your fault.

You both have faults but starting with you, I think you are jealous of your husband's relationship with his brother for one. It has caused you to nag. Your brother in-law noticed it and left because of it. So I will put it clearly to you that you nag rather unnecessarily.

Being introverted isn't helping you, if you were close to his brother, you will not complain but sit together, 3 of you and laugh. Be a part of what makes your husband happy not takeaway what makes him happy.

You and your husband were nqever close in the first place so his closeness to other people makes you jealous and a nagging wife, that is on him but you should know better than to nag.

From my experience, you guys are not in the same page or think alike. You view things one way and he views things another way without coming to a compromise. This means you live your lives as individuals cohabiting and having a kids. This means he is comfortable with other people in his life while you are also comfortable with your own people.

To find a solution, the problems will have to be identified especially by both of you and compromise be made .

The key is understanding and compromise.

Understanding means you have to watch your husband, pick what he likes and be part of it.

He wants to gist with his brother till 1am, crash that party, gist too, join the fun.

If his mother and brothers love you, he will love you more.

Give him what you have to give and don't demand what you expect, appreciate what you receive

yes total roof area.

Take your total floor area and add 50% of it, that should give you a worst case estimate of the roof area.

If your floor area is 200sqm, your roof area should be + or - 300sqm.

Mup4life:
Good day house pls can a house of 58ft by 32ft and a 15ft kingpost have as high as 415sqm area?

You mean roof area. Without specifics, I think that's too much considering that a 415 roof nearly covers an entire plot (465) in a flat roof style

Hi adanny01,

Sorry for the late reply... Been off NL for a bit.

You are correct, I did do a video https://youtu.be/tMh9tbo4Ee8 that showed how to replace the ELD although the objective of the video was to fix a high beam light that wouldn't turn off. (Disclaimer: @all - this is one of my older videos that I am not so proud of the videography , you should check my newer videos before you judge me ). This was done by replacing the logic board in the non-serviceable part of the engine fuse box. You will encounter the ELD in the course of this procedure. I did not change mine.
Now, 2 questions as this could be a failing ELD or alternator. Do you have a CEL with an ELD related code? Also, does the battery circuit warning indicator come on at all? If it does, does it flicker or stay steady. If flickering, I would be leaning more towards an ELD. Steady, I guess more of an alternator that is unable to switch into high gear since you say it supplies 14vdc approx at idle.

Assuming things are pointing to the ELD, that should be the cheaper option to replace. In my case I got the used, skeletal engine fuse box for; I think N2,500. All useful components were already gone: fuses, relays etc save the ELD and logic board.

Happy to see how this pans out. Let me know.

Upon further research and diagnosis, I zeroed on ELD and will get it when I can.

From what I read, the ECU controls the alternator when to give full power (14v or above) or low Power (12.6v). Since the alternator is able to deliver 14v when demanded, it means it's in good condition.

The ELD is responsible for detecting high current draw then outputs a signal to the ECU which toggles the alternator low or high. 2 things are very prominent for high current draw, headlight and power windows. I checked and the headlight doesn't trigger high alternator output so I can safely conclude that the ELD is not responding to current draw like it should have.

I did understand that other triggers for high alternator power is the fan blower motor but this is direct from the fan switch to ECU, so the switch triggers the high alternator power. The conditions for low alternator power are a combination of temperature 75°C and above, speed 10-45mph, RPM lower than 3000, current draw less than 15a, during starting, AC off etc

I will source the ELD when I can. For now, I make sure I idle the car car without gear frequently. I have noticed the battery is not getting weak like before.

We just want to help him

What bad things has he done when high on weed?

If there is nothing, the free the man. As long as he is responsible, don't bother.

Exaggerating news..

It is not an exaggeration.

GuyWise101:
This is a derogatory word for Igbo and yoruba.

No, it is not

Bakano means Kano man
Bakatsine means Katsina man
Basokoce means a sokoto man
Bayorube means a yoruba man
Banupe of course is Nupe
Bakatafe is kataf

This same format cannot be used with everyone

Baigbo wouldn't sound ok
Bativ
Baibibio wouldn't work

So a different name is used.

Nyamiri is derived from 'Nyem miri' (give me water) as Igbos used to say during the building of the Nigerian railway.

In Akwa Ibom, Awokusa means Hausa man but alot of people think it's derogatory which is obviously not.

Arewa1stSon:
this is not about Shekiri and ijaw that are neighbors!

This is about Hausafulani people of Northern Nigeria... People who share the same ancestral land and have been marrying each other for over 400yrs now.

We are not neighbors... We are one people!!

Attack on Hausas is attack on the north!!

Attack on fulanis is attack on the north!!

Attack on kanuri, babur, Nupe, tangale, zuru is attack on the north.

Keep the hatred and the stereotypes you have for the Fulanis in the south!!

Fulanis in the north are cherished and loved!!

We Only hate bandits, Bokoharam and kidnappers!!

Hausawa are slaves to Fulani whether you agree or not. With time, the Hausa will rise up, not against their brothers who have Fulani blood but against the ones that have remained pure Fulani and these are the ruling houses of the Hausa traditional institution which is pure Fulani.

Remember, the real Fulani herdsmen don't intermarry with Hausa. The ruling Fulani class marry amongst themselves.

It will never benefit the Hausa to remain the same ethnic group as the Fulani since they will always be secondary.

The Fulani have been fighting a Jihad and still are, Hausa is a tool in this fight for dominance.

If I asked which are you, if Fulani you will proudly say so but a Hausa man will dodge the question

Probably I have a mobile office I tow everywhere I go, not everybody lives in Lagos, some of us live and work in forest regions and we tow our camper to work and government reserve area for camper living

Good for you

nurey:
Then the 5.0L V8 for me then

How many times will you actually tow?

The F150 is America's no 1 car, imagine the sales but how many of the units are actually put to towing? How many go off road? How many even get to use the bed.

Majority of this car users use the it like a regular car.

Among the Ford engine options, the Ecoboost is the most sold, that's because it checks most of the boxes with a combination of horsepower, torque and fuel economy.

Towing capacity is like having seat warmer in Nigeria.

Well, the same old private sector hasn't been investing in rails

Let's be honest, railways needs a lot of money. And the truth is, we haven';t had the money we need. So, we take loans.


The problem is that the government isn't ready to get us off oil or get us off the kind of economy we run...selling raw materials and using the cash to import. We need the economy to be reformatted to being productive enough to give us the kind of revenue we need to avoid borrowing.

You said it as it is.

The rest of the problem is truly policy. All the bad roads in Nigeria are as a result of lack of rail transport to move heavy goods. With cargo trains, roads will last longer saving billions spent on roads. The policy of banning certain goods on roads need to be implementedas soon as we can get some rail.lines.

The next issue will be minimum wage and standard of living. As it is now even the Abuja-kaduna rail isn't affordable for low income earners. The lines won't be too. That means what we need now are cargo trains

Good day Piyke.

I did remember watching a video of yours doing an Electronic Load Detector ELD job.

I am having the issue currently and mine is horrific. It has left me stranded several times. I thought I had a dead battery but if I charge outside the car the battery holds good charge only to become weak days later.

It was just yesterday I discovered during live scan that at idle I have 13.9-14.5vdc but while driving it drops to 12.4-12.7vdc and 11.9vdc with full lights and high sound system volume. It means I drive on batteries and idle on alternator except when AC is on. So if I don't have enough idle time, my battery will be depleted and can't start the car. It has happened randomly more than 5times. I left the car for 4months and it started at once but when I drove out, the battery went flat.

What was your result? Is changing the ELD unit only a viable option?

EDGEof2MORO:
My i4 2007 accord does not start at first attempt, usually after sitting idle for 6-10 hours. It starts only at second or third attempt. The OBD scan shows Oxygen bank 1 sensor error.

Could that be the problem? I read that a faulty 02 sensor would not affect startup. What do you think?

That could be fuel pressure related.

Your fuel pressure regulator is responsible for keeping pressure in the fuel line even after the car has not been started for a long time. That pressure it holds on the line enables the car to start instantly at the next start otherwise the fuel pump needs to build pressure before the engine will run.

So your 1st kick was just for the pump to build pressure. It is located in the fuel sending unit in the fuel tank.

Bestman2021:
After three days of living in my house and working on the car, he couldn't fix it.

I asked mechanics to put it up for sale but no mechanic would take it from me to put it up for sale. They said no one will buy it. It will occupy unnecessary space in their workshop because the popular belief is that Nissan Murano is not a good SUV.

I contacted the dealer I bought the car from and he assured me that it wasn't a problem, that maybe those mechanics don't have knowledge of Nissan Murano. We both shared the belief that the first mechanic who repaired the cut fan belts and changed the engine oil (Mobil 1) and gear oil for me with NS2 CVT gear oil I bought myself must have tampered with the car unnecessarily and couldn't put it back in shape after.

After three weeks of exhausting all the mechanics and rewire guys in my state and nearby states, and pouring over 200k extra into the car hoping it would work, I sold the car as scrap.

Your mistake was doing more than you should have.

Next time, let the seller change engine oil before the journey and then never change gear oil immediately after buying a car even if it's the original recommended gear oil.

What about those who legally need it for their pains as prescribed or those who use it to keep up with the young girls that have been extorting their boyfriends or sugar daddies

Hello Guys, I need your help and advice on what to do about my 09 toyota corolla (south african version) ac compressor. My car's ac compressor has been burning repeatedly since mid November last year and am on the 4th compressor now which was changed on 18th December with an adapted 507 new compressor as last resort on advice of the technician; to my chagrin, it burnt on 26th December almost setting the engine on fire after burning out the belt.
So I decided to let it rest and drive without ac till the christmas festivities are over. Now, I would have loved to scrap the car but it's a manual transmission and am enjoying it.
Please Nairalanders, help me out cos I have always bragged to my friends who are none members that there is no issue in this world that you guys can't handle.
Thanks

This is a very common issue with especially the SA model, infact the range of Corolla and Camry of the year.

my friend bought a 2010 Corolla very cheap because the previous owner tried and gave up on the AC. The previous owner handed to him 3 working compressors but all would cut out after 20 minutes of cooling. The expansion valve was changed several times. A Peugeot compressor was used but the vibration and loss of power was something else.
