Winter grime, rust prevention, wiring headaches, and window tint laws — this week’s Drive Radio covers it all! John Rush is joined by Roy and Dietze from ProTech Auto Shield to tackle listener questions about underbody corrosion from mag chloride, fading carbon fiber, and why your old Chevy’s gauges or marker lights might quit on you. Plus, practical hacks from listeners — like the DIY sprinkler trick for cleaning your car’s undercarriage!
John also breaks down the truth behind the rumored “30% drop in car prices,” explains why AGM batteries aren’t all they’re cracked up to be, and reminds drivers
SPEAKER 23 :
It’s a mighty fancy automobile. Oh, she’s a real road king, all right. Zero to 60 in 7.5. She’ll do a quarter mile, 13.40. 390 horsepower, 500 foot-pounds of torque.
SPEAKER 03 :
Whatever that is. Performance and image, that’s what it’s all about.
SPEAKER 17 :
There’s no such thing as a stupid question. This is Drive Radio. All of your automotive questions are just one phone call away. 303-477-5600. Drive Radio is made possible by the member shops of Colorado Select Auto Care Centers. To find one near you, go to drive-radio.com. Now, Drive Radio on KLZ 560.
SPEAKER 16 :
All right, Drive Radio, KLC 560. Again, Charlie Grimes, your engineer. Larry Unger answering phones today. Got a couple lines open, 303-477-5600. Roy and Dietze both from ProTech Auto Shield with us today as well, talking about car care tips and things along those lines. Chris in Colorado Springs, you are next.
SPEAKER 11 :
Hi. How are you, Chris? Hey, you guys spend a lot of time talking about, you know, paint and glass and all this stuff. Always wondered about, you know, with all this mag chloride and stuff they put on the roof in the winter, what about the bottom of my car?
SPEAKER 16 :
Great question. Really good question. This is one where even though you’ve got to be careful with, you know, automatic car washes, especially those that have the brushes and so on, which I’m not a fan of, the touchless ones, aren’t too bad as long as they’re a modern car wash and they’re not using caustic soaps and so on. And typically you can look at the car wash and kind of know, is it new, is it old, and so on, Chris. The thing I do like about the automatic washes is, and the more modern ones will have this, is the underbody wash, which I believe in the wintertime, especially after every storm, I religiously will roll through one of those, if nothing else, just to get the underside of the car cleaned off because otherwise that crud just sits there and starts to do its thing. And I want to get rid of that.
SPEAKER 11 :
Do any of your shops that you work with, can you make an appointment with them or anything to, like, you know, have them pressure wash the bottom of your car or anything like that?
SPEAKER 16 :
I don’t think any of them are set up, you know, space-wise, Chris, to be able to do that. So, no, I don’t have any shops that, you know, on the mechanical sides of things that do that. And I don’t know of any… real even collision centers that do much of that uh there’s there’s two ways to do it either find a car wash like i just said or i’ve seen guys rig up a garden hose with three different nozzles where they just drive the car you know drive the truck in your case over the nozzles and just turn the garden hose on let it run for a little bit and get all that stuff washed off that way Right. Okay. One of the two. But most of the more modern washes, I have one not far from me, but most of the modern washes that have the underbody wash, if you drive through there nice and slow, you’ll see a difference from going in to coming back out of it pretty easily.
SPEAKER 11 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 16 :
Thank you. Because, Chris, as you know, it’s hard even on a self-serve car wash with the wand and everything to get clear underneath everything and really get everything washed off. As you know, it’s really difficult to do that. But, yes, you need to be doing that.
SPEAKER 22 :
Thank you.
SPEAKER 16 :
Great tip. No, great question, Chris. I appreciate that. Now, side note, is there any coating? There’s really no ceramic coating or anything you do underneath the car, is there?
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah. I mean, you can put ceramic coating on the undercarriage. Okay. I mean, everywhere. Basically, I mean, I have done it twice already. But I don’t really like to do it because you get into the mechanical things. I mean, all the stuff. And then I’m not a mechanic guy. You know what I mean? And then when you spray the ceramic coating, I don’t know if it will cause something. Good point. But I’ve done it before, and I think I did a Mustang Mach 1. Okay. A few years ago. Okay. And it looked really nice. I mean, it looked really nice. Okay. Good to know. But it’s not something that we do.
SPEAKER 16 :
Good to know. All right. Rob in Centennial, you’re next. Go ahead.
SPEAKER 07 :
Hi, John. It’s been a while. Hey, Rob.
SPEAKER 16 :
How are you, sir?
SPEAKER 07 :
Pretty well. I was thinking it was the scariest car I can ever remember seeing. I was thinking the most memorable car was that Duesenberg Model J that Adam’s family was driving in the movies.
SPEAKER 16 :
Good point.
SPEAKER 07 :
I mean, that thing was, you just kind of look at it, you kind of almost want to go bowing and waving your arms in the air to appreciate what you’re saying. We are in an interesting time right now. We have a lot of cars that are wearing out, but you can’t get the little parts through that are out of production. But if we could hold out for another five, maybe ten years, there’s going to be printing. There’ll be printing the parts. We’ll be either centering them or cold spraying them, but maybe talking about having, basically, part of the manufacturing shops and all the warships so they don’t have to come to the port to get the parts. I’ve got a buddy with a 2000 Saturn SL, or LS rather, LS, and it’s a real nice car. He’s put a lot of mileage on it. He’s always taken very good care of it, and it’s running very well, and it’s showing the sign of dying on him. But he just the other day pulled up his parking brake, and suddenly something snapped, and it fell right back down again and would lock. Oh, boy. And we looked into it, and there’s a weird little part from GM that… You can’t get any more. And I have been pretty thorough. I have a lot of sources, because I have my 93 SW2, so I’ve gotten pretty good at tracking out weird old parts. And what I’m wondering is, we both know how a parking brake works. It just puts pressure on a cable that locks a little shoe drum on the back of the axle. Couldn’t you almost put anything that would fit in there, and you suggest a cable so you could get the right amount of pressure and put in a new one or an aftermarket one?
SPEAKER 16 :
Whoa. Good question.
SPEAKER 07 :
It’s the sort of thing, a smart old mechanic who could just look at the thing and have a selection at once. You pull out the old one, put in the new one, and just go into the same hole. With the VW, I’ve learned an awful lot about the things you can get away with.
SPEAKER 16 :
I think on that car, that’s what you’re going to be left with unless you can find a replacement. But good luck. As you know, that’s not easy.
SPEAKER 07 :
And you go to a junkyard, you’ve got somebody else’s problem from 10 years back.
SPEAKER 16 :
Correct.
SPEAKER 07 :
If you don’t have an answer now, it’s the sort of thing I thought we could think about. Look around and see if somebody has an idea about that.
SPEAKER 16 :
I’ll do that.
SPEAKER 07 :
It’s a shame to have a car in danger for the lack of an $8 piece of plastic.
SPEAKER 16 :
Correct.
SPEAKER 07 :
Can’t argue that. One of the things I was thinking, we could talk about a law getting passed, is that if a manufacturer discontinues a given part, they should be required to hand over a 3D model of it so that it could be printed. Yeah, I can’t argue that.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah, I mean, for those… Yeah, for those sorts of pieces, yeah, I see nothing wrong with that. Now, when it comes to some of the electronic components and so on, I think we’re out of luck on that one. But, yeah, on that case, yeah, I would agree. Yes?
SPEAKER 07 :
They now make a complete replacement for the old printed circuit board. It goes behind the control panel on the Vatican’s dash. It’s all wires and connectors and everything else, but it’s completely functional to replace with the old printed circuit, which is disintegrating.
SPEAKER 16 :
Nice.
SPEAKER 07 :
And that’s the sort of thing that’s going to… If you have a vigorous enough aftermarket or it’s low enough overhead aftermarket, you should be able to reduce new parts to replace the stuff that can’t be gotten anymore. I thought about also trying one of the old-time restoration places. There’s a couple of good people I know, but Aurora… and just seeing what ideas they might have, because this can be a unique problem. These things are going to wear out, and you’ve got to find a solution for it.
SPEAKER 16 :
Very true.
SPEAKER 07 :
So if you can think of anybody or talk to anybody that has an idea, you can put it up, or I can email you, and I’ll fill you up with the contact information on this sort of thing.
SPEAKER 16 :
Okay, good to know. I will do that.
SPEAKER 07 :
John, it’s always good to talk to you. Rob, as same. I appreciate it.
SPEAKER 16 :
Thank you so much for calling, all your support. Appreciate you very much. Jim in Wellington, you’re next.
SPEAKER 06 :
Hey, I have a comment on Washington and their side of your vehicle. So what I have is like a lawn sprinkler. You’ve seen them before. They’re about the shape of a triangle.
SPEAKER 16 :
Right.
SPEAKER 06 :
And at, say, the base of the triangle, they have two small wheels on them. And then at the top of the triangle is where the hose hook’s on it. and that you can find the sprinklers, and they spin. They spin around.
SPEAKER 16 :
Right.
SPEAKER 06 :
So what I do is I put the sprinkler at the back of the vehicle. You have your hose going underneath the vehicle, and then you turn it on so it starts spinning in the water, and you go to the front of the vehicle, and you slowly just pull it underneath your vehicle and let it agitate and spray off, and that works really good. Great idea. It gets up in the frame and all that stuff. Yeah. If you go through some mud or something, you can just let it sit there for a little bit, slowly move it forward, and it really washes it off really good.
SPEAKER 16 :
Great idea. Yeah, I like that. No, that’s a great idea. Great tip, Jim.
SPEAKER 06 :
Have a good day.
SPEAKER 16 :
Hey, you do the same. No, appreciate that. We have really good listeners, by the way, a great community of folk. Thank you for that, Jim. I appreciate that. I know others listening do as well. We’ll take a timeout. We’ll come right back. This is Drive Radio, KLZ 560.

SPEAKER 18 :
Well, I saw the thing coming out of the sky. It had one long horn and one big eye. I commenced to shaking and I said, ooh wee. It looks like a purple people eater to me. It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flying purple people eater.
SPEAKER 05 :
One-eyed, one-horned, flying purple people eater.
SPEAKER 16 :
all right you guys know that song so i don’t have to mention it because it’s right there for you so all right mark is next in wiggins go ahead mark hey good afternoon john uh i’ve been uh working on a 1986 chevy uh one ton that uh
SPEAKER 10 :
Since I bought it years ago, it’s had a number of issues, but this one issue I can’t seem to diagnose, which is the front parking lights, I guess the marker park lights, are not coming on when you turn the headlight switch on. So the rear lights work. So the taillights, turn signals, side markers on the rear work. The license plate lights work. On the front, the headlights work, high and low beam for switching between those. And the turn signal lights work on the front, left and right. And so I sent you an email of a schematic that I’m trying to go through, you know, to see where in the world is this not working, because why is the turn signal working and the hazards flash working, which tells me the bulbs work, But when I turn the headlight switch on, they don’t come on.
SPEAKER 16 :
Did you check? Because those are duo-filament bulbs, so the brighter part of the bulb, it’s an 1157 bulb, the brighter part of the bulb is working for the turn signals. The marker lamps or the parking lamps are the dimmer of the two filaments. Do you have two bad filaments by chance?
SPEAKER 10 :
I don’t know. I mean, I guess all four of them going bad at the same time.
SPEAKER 16 :
Well, what normally happens is one goes bad, and then another, and you don’t really notice it, and then all of a sudden you notice they’re all bad.
SPEAKER 10 :
Okay, because I thought maybe the headlight or the light switch itself was going bad somehow.
SPEAKER 16 :
Well, did you check to see? I mean, so when you turn the lights on and you unplug a marker lamp, for example, do you have power there?
SPEAKER 10 :
Data haven’t checked. Use a test light.
SPEAKER 16 :
I mean, that old car, you just use a test light and determine if there’s actual power there. Well, if you’ve got power there and nothing’s lighting up, well, you probably have a bad bulb.
SPEAKER 10 :
Okay, but if there is no power, then where do I go next?
SPEAKER 16 :
Trace backwards and try to determine. Again, with a test light, try to test backwards. Do you have power coming out of the fuse box, for example? Do you have power across that particular fuse because the marker lamps are on their own fuse? Do you have power going across the fuse? If not, why?
SPEAKER 10 :
Well, because, and that’s why I was wondering because, you know, when you turn them on, the turn signal indicators on the dash come on, which doesn’t seem normal.
SPEAKER 16 :
That means you have a bad, that means there’s either a bulb out, typically, that’s back in those days when those were on all the time, that tells you a bulb’s out.
SPEAKER 10 :
Oh, interesting. Okay. Okay. Well, if I have four bulbs out, I’m going to be laughing at myself.
SPEAKER 16 :
Well, and again, the easy way to test is get a test light, see if you’ve got power to each. If not, then we’ve got to go backwards and figure out what’s going on. But have I seen all bulbs go out? Yes. Over the years, yes.
SPEAKER 10 :
I mean, it is an old truck. But I just thought it was maybe it could be something like a wire got chewed up or something like that.
SPEAKER 16 :
And again, Mark, possible. Again, given older vehicles and they can sit and have rodents and so on and things that happen that are unseen, sure. I mean, is that a possibility? Absolutely. Even before you put bulbs in it, I would get a test light and just see is there any power there.
SPEAKER 10 :
Got it. I will work on that.
SPEAKER 16 :
Those are two separate circuits. For everybody listening, it’s always been this way, even on modern cars, same way. Turn signals are always a different circuit than park lamps.
SPEAKER 10 :
Right, right, because that goes through the flasher system. Correct. Yeah. Flasher and brake lights and hazard. It’s schematic. You know, scratch my head. Like, why is it getting power, you know, to one side but not the other side? I thought I was looking for the physical wire, which goes into a power… And those would be brown.
SPEAKER 16 :
On that truck, those are brown wires.
SPEAKER 10 :
Yeah, brown. And so I’ve… I didn’t want to cut the loom open just yet before I called, so I wanted to.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah, so when that went all the way through on a GM, all parking light wires, as you know, they’ll all be brown.
SPEAKER 10 :
Got it. Okay. Front, back, side to side.
SPEAKER 16 :
I mean, every circuit for that particular, all the wires, I should say, for that circuit will be brown, Mark. Even when you hook a trailer up, same thing, going to brown.
SPEAKER 10 :
Oh, so that brings up another point. There is, like, a trailer plug adapter in the back. Would that have anything to do with it? Could.
SPEAKER 16 :
Double-check it. You might even unplug that, plug the harness back in directly, and see if anything changes.
SPEAKER 10 :
Ooh, I will try that.
SPEAKER 16 :
Absolutely, that could. Yes, it could.
SPEAKER 10 :
Okay, okay.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yep, absolutely.
SPEAKER 10 :
I will give that a try. Maybe that pigtail’s gone bad. Could very well be.
SPEAKER 16 :
You might, yeah. Again, that’s an easy one to test. Okay, perfect.
SPEAKER 10 :
Thank you. You’re on the right track. You bet, Mark.
SPEAKER 16 :
Appreciate it very much. Yep, wiring can be one of those things that can become very difficult at times. So I’m right there with Mark, so give that a whirl and see what happens. Okay, let’s talk, Roy and Dietze. And for those of you listening, too, some of you with more of a… non-regular car. Maybe that’s the better way to say it. Some of you that have higher-end vehicles, you can have carbon fiber hood scoops. You can have carbon fiber on the roof. You can have carbon fiber in different places, depending upon the type of car that you own. And one thing that I did not know that I’ve learned from Roy is that carbon fiber can fade faster than other parts of the car, correct?
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah, that’s correct. Which I did not know. Yeah, for some reason, I mean, carbon fiber parts… aftermarket the worst, they fade out really easy. Okay. So that’s why we recommend to do at least ceramic coating, but PPF is the best way to go. Okay. To protect from UV rays.
SPEAKER 16 :
Okay. So there you go. So For some of you, again, that have some of the more exotic vehicles, and I shouldn’t say exotic. There’s even some regular, you know, performance-type cars running around where it’ll have a, you know, carbon fiber scoop or a carbon fiber this or whatever, carbon fiber mirror. Some guys will even change over to a carbon fiber mirror, you know, as an aftermarket.
SPEAKER 04 :
Hood or full fenders, you know what I mean?
SPEAKER 16 :
Correct, correct. So those of you that have that, keep in mind that your potential for fading is higher on that than it would be a regular, you know, regular car with regular paint. So best way for me to say that, so.
SPEAKER 04 :
So like I say, yeah, ceramic coating or PPF is the best to protect for that.
SPEAKER 16 :
Okay. Good to know. All right. With that, we’re going to come back. 303-477-5600. We’ll be right back. Drive Radio, KLZ 560.

All right, we are back. That’s a movie. What’s the name of the movie again, Charlie? I can’t hear you. Sorry. Still, I’m sorry. We have a button problem on Charlie’s end, so that’s okay. It’s a movie Charlie said he wouldn’t watch again. Let’s just say it that way. Okay, there we go. All right, we’re back. Again, Roy and Dietze, both from ProTech Autoshield with us. And any questions you’ve got when it comes to paint protection film, which you can put anywhere on the car now, which we used to call clear bra, ceramic coating, window tint, detailing, paintless dent removal, all of that, we can cover any of those things. We’ve got a half an hour left, 303-477-5600. Let’s talk window tint for a moment. We haven’t done that for quite some time. And a lot of confusion, by the way, when it comes to window tint, what’s legal. And what I will suggest to everybody is you can do whatever you want to. But at the end of the day, what’s legal and what’s not comes down to, in some cases, the jurisdiction that you’re in. Because even though there’s a statewide law when it comes to window tint, some cities really enforce it regularly. Right. honestly, others could care less. It just depends on where you’re at. Am I right in saying it that way?
SPEAKER 21 :
Yeah, and it also depends on what you’re doing with the car.
SPEAKER 16 :
What do you mean?
SPEAKER 21 :
Yeah, so, like, I see a lot of, like, sport cars with really dark tint, and if you’re taunting the police, they’re probably going to… Yeah, yeah, yeah, good point.
SPEAKER 16 :
You’re probably going to get pulled over for that.
SPEAKER 21 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 16 :
Okay, now, and I can’t remember, you guys know this better than I, what is the quote-unquote legal limit in Colorado?
SPEAKER 21 :
For side windows.
SPEAKER 16 :
Because around the back, it’s just like a van. You can do it dark or do whatever you want to. It doesn’t make any difference. But the two side windows and windshield are what they look at, right?
SPEAKER 21 :
Yeah. It would be 27.5%. Okay. Which is essentially 30%. Okay. And on the windshield, you can have 70%.
SPEAKER 16 :
Okay, meaning 70% has to be able to come through. Yes, visible light transmission. Okay, and for those of you that are listening, yes, they use meters to check that.
SPEAKER 14 :
Yes.
SPEAKER 16 :
The cops, a lot of times, if they’re really enforcing this, they’ll have a little meter, they slip it over the glass, and they can check it immediately. What is that percentage? And I’ve seen videos, and it just depends on the police person that you end up with as to how sticky they want to be. But in some cases, I’ve seen, you know, go get a razor blade and take that off or you’re not driving the car sort of a thing. I’ve literally seen that. So if you’re going to go that dark, just remember that, and to Dietz’s point, depending upon what you’re doing and where you’re at and what’s going on, it could be sticky.
SPEAKER 21 :
Keep a razor blade in your car.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah, I was just going to say keep a scraper handy just in case because if you had to take it off, you might.
SPEAKER 04 :
But that’s kind of rare. I mean, I had a couple of customers. They mentioned that one time at some point. Yeah, they had to remove the film, the window tint.
SPEAKER 21 :
Also, keep in mind when you’re traveling. I had one of my customers come in, and she asked me about the legal tent. And I told her about it, and I told her that it will depend on where she’s at. And she told me that with one of her cars, she was traveling to, I believe it was Texas, where as soon as she pretty much crossed the line, they had her take off the tent because it was too dark.
SPEAKER 16 :
Okay. So it can happen. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, my point is I know I hear a lot of people say, oh, I don’t really care. I’ll just put whatever I want to on it. Well, you can. I mean, at the end of the day, you can’t just remember. You’re going to be allowable for that. If it has to come off and get redone, that’s now on you, right? Yeah. Again, one of those things is going to happen. All right. Richard in Littleton, you’re next.
SPEAKER 09 :
Yes.
SPEAKER 16 :
Good afternoon, John. How are you, sir?
SPEAKER 09 :
I have a Honda 2000 CR-V. Okay. And the first question I had, because I talked to Larry, and I would like to know on the AGM battery, and it’s got that special charging requirement profile, can I buy that for that year 2000 CRV?
SPEAKER 16 :
Say that again. I’m not following.
SPEAKER 09 :
The AGM battery.
SPEAKER 16 :
Oh, the AGM battery.
SPEAKER 09 :
Yeah, should I buy the lead acid, or can I buy the fancier AGM battery for the Honda CRV?
SPEAKER 16 :
That is completely up to you. Where is the battery located on that one?
SPEAKER 09 :
It’s in the engine compartment. and it’s on the, I would say, probably the passenger side towards the rear.
SPEAKER 16 :
Then buy whatever you want, truthfully. I mean, if it’s not inside, the only time I’m, and even the manufacturers would say this, the only time I’m big on making sure that you use a sealed-type battery like an AGM is if it’s inside the car. Sometimes they’re in the footwell. Sometimes they’re in the trunk. Sometimes they’re underneath the back seat or front seat, things like that. In those cases, yes, you’ve got to use an AGM. In your case, where it’s outside of the cabin, do whatever you want.
SPEAKER 09 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 16 :
And frankly, I am not. This is me personally. I hate AGM batteries, just to be honest with you. I’ve got them in a couple of vehicles because they’re inside the car and there’s no choice. But frankly, Richard, I can’t stand them. I would go to a lead acid in a heartbeat.
SPEAKER 09 :
Could you expand on that a little bit more, John? Because, I mean, they really make a big push about the AGM batteries being the most up-to-date technology and everything like that.
SPEAKER 16 :
They are the hardest battery. If you’re driving the vehicle every day, you know what, might go along with what they’re saying there. But if you’ve got a vehicle that has to be on any kind of a… battery tender sort of thing because you don’t drive the car a ton, which is ironic because most of the vehicles that these batteries are in are that type of a vehicle that you might not even drive on a daily basis, for example, because most modern vehicles don’t have the battery inside the car. Yes, there are some, but most of the time that’s more of a performance car, an exotic, something along those lines, Richard. And I will just tell you straight up, maintaining an AGM battery sucks. They’re awful.
SPEAKER 11 :
Wow.
SPEAKER 16 :
Meaning, if I had my way of doing it and they weren’t inside the vehicle, I’d change them all over to a lead acid. And they’re half the price.
SPEAKER 09 :
Okay. Great that you tell me about that. Great you’re telling everybody that listens. Second question, if I can do this on a Honda CR-V. I’ve seen many of the YouTubes how to purge the air out of the radiator, but I’m just kind of curious. Does that motor… on that Honda CR-V 2000, does it have a drain bolt on the side of the block? And does it also have, because I’ve been reading a little bit about online on this, and does it have also a drain bolt on the… on the thermostat housing to really purge it if I wanted to get all that air out completely?
SPEAKER 16 :
I don’t know on the block. I’m not familiar enough with that engine to tell you that. You could see the housing for the thermostat and know, just follow the hose and find the housing and look to see if there’s a bleed valve there. If there is, you know there is. If there isn’t, there isn’t. You could feel it with your hand or see it with a flashlight or whatever. But yeah, if there’s going to be one there, it’s very apparent.
SPEAKER 09 :
Okay, gotcha. All right. Thank you very much.
SPEAKER 16 :
Now, on a side note, and this is for everybody else, listen, I got this question a while back from somebody else on a similar vehicle having air purge problems. In the automotive world where the technicians are fixing these things regularly, they make a tool for doing exactly what you’re talking about, which most shops have because of how hard it is to get the air out.
SPEAKER 09 :
Okay. All right. Well, fair enough. Thank you for all the information.
SPEAKER 16 :
No, you’re very welcome, Richard. Thank you, by the way. I appreciate it. And, yeah, by the way, I’m not the only buddy out there that feels the same way about AGM batteries. I know there’s a lot of folk out there that are big fans of them. I’m not one, I’ll be honest with you. I would never use one unless you absolutely had to. A, they’re super expensive, and, again, B, they’re extremely hard to maintain. For that reason alone, I am not a fan of them. John and Cheyenne, go ahead.
SPEAKER 08 :
Hey, John, how are you?
SPEAKER 16 :
Good, sir. How are you today?
SPEAKER 08 :
All right. I called right at the end of Fix It Radio. That guy that sent you that text was, well, there’s a few words, but he was a knucklehead because he doesn’t understand.
SPEAKER 16 :
Thank you. Thank you. Appreciate it.
SPEAKER 08 :
He doesn’t understand. Sometimes you bring those guys on for a long time. He says it was a commercial, but there was so much knowledge there coming out, you know,
SPEAKER 16 :
Well, I think, John, especially when it comes to, and for everybody listening, I got a really bad text message about my Fix It radio show today being nothing but an hour-long commercial. We had two different guests on. One was talking about how to properly stain your deck and your wood and your fence and all the different things. And, yes, he was from a company that makes stain, but very informative. I learned some things. I hope a lot of you listening did as well. And then I had Dave Hart from Roof Savers of Colorado on. He’s our Roof Max host. guy and he’s helped me over the years John with so many things from my commercial roofs to my personal residence roof and so on in we really today spent a lot of time talking about the insurance sides of things and how things have changed along those lines trying to inform people that you’re no longer gonna replace a roof under insurance like you once would because they’re tightening things up there just not write in blank checks like they used to John no they’re not and that’s why I tell anybody that asked me
SPEAKER 08 :
If you can afford the upgrade one time, go with the metal roof.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah, and or in Dave’s case, do the treatment, extend that life, get as many years out of it as you can. I mean, the bottom line is you’re going to have to do more on your own now than you’ve ever had to.
SPEAKER 08 :
Right. So speaking on my own, 1980 Chevy, my 80 Chevy plow truck, none of the gauges are working. I checked all the fuses, and I actually… bought a whole bunch and replaced them all, and they’re still not working. Am I missing something? Is there another?
SPEAKER 16 :
maybe a fuse that under the hood or something that would send the power to no that that one is all underneath the floorboard there on the driver’s side where your feet are as you know which you know you got to be a contortionist to get up there and even look at everything but no everything runs through that that fuse box and and you’ve got power so you’ve actually you know you’ve i know you’ve checked both sides of the fuse you’ve got power going through the fuses so there’s power coming out of the box
SPEAKER 08 :
Right. Is there, like, a main fuse at the beginning of that box?
SPEAKER 16 :
There is a gauge, no, but there’s a specific gauge fuse. I’m sure you found it, right?
SPEAKER 08 :
Yeah, I did. It’s, you know, between having readers and a headlamp on. Right. Because, like, you know, the age thing with the reading glasses. I hear you.
SPEAKER 16 :
No, I’m in the same boat. I hear you.
SPEAKER 08 :
It’s hard to see it, but, all right, you know, I’ll. I bought new fuses and put it in, but I’m wondering if the new ones I bought are bad.
SPEAKER 16 :
Well, what I’ve always done from day one, I guess I learned this all the way back in the day. In today’s modern vehicles, this is a little bit harder to do because you can’t necessarily use a test light for some things. But on that car, you can. So I’ve always been one to have a good test light. with a nice sharp point. And literally, you know, before you even replace a fuse, just when the key’s on, check each side of the fuse, making sure that you’ve got power, you know, going across the fuse. Now, here’s a hint, and I’ve been bit on this one a few times. Back in the day, Again, this doesn’t happen today, but it used to happen quite a little bit. Guys would put accessories on and they would find a spot in the fuse box and they would either put a just a piece of wire. They’d scrunch, you know, they’d make a U out of it. They’d stick it in underneath the fuse or they’d use an adapter or whatever. The problem with those. is they have a tendency to spread the terminal that’s supposed to be grabbing the fuse a little bit too far, meaning you could get power across the fuse, but it’s never going through the fuse box because that crimp isn’t tight enough. So double-check, too, when you pull the fuse out, make sure both sides that fuse is fitting into nice and tight.
SPEAKER 08 :
Do they make a tool, or what would you use to squeeze those back together a little bit?
SPEAKER 16 :
Just a real fine set of needle-nose pliers.
SPEAKER 08 :
Okay, fine set. I got one of those.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah, in your world, yeah, I know with what you’ve done in the past, yeah, you’ve got that. So just squeeze those together a little bit to make sure they make really good contact. But, yeah, and on that truck, I believe it’s only the one gauge fuse that runs power up to the instrument panel.
SPEAKER 08 :
Yeah, there’s three or four gauges together. You’ve got low pressure, you’ve got temperature, you’ve got charge voltage. And, you know, the other thing is, you know, I like to keep an eye on the voltage gauge when I’m plowing because that hydraulic plow motor sucks some voltage out.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yes, it does. Yes, it does.
SPEAKER 08 :
So I’m constantly contemplating and… What is that, L&M? Right.
SPEAKER 16 :
LMC.
SPEAKER 08 :
Yes, LMC. It has the battery plate. I’m contemplating putting a second battery in it just to – I used to.
SPEAKER 16 :
Back in that day in all the plow trucks we ran, I did just because you couldn’t hardly keep up with things otherwise. That’s an easy one to do.
SPEAKER 08 :
Yeah, there’s plenty of room on the opposite side. from where the battery’s on the passenger side, and I could put one.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah, and the way I used to do that back in the day is, you know, originally a lot of guys would put in what they called a battery isolator, and I finally realized that those things were pretty much junk. And what I started doing is I started using, you know, the old, like a plow solenoid, basically, get a separate plow solenoid, have it energized when the key’s on, use that to connect one battery to the other on the positive side.
SPEAKER 08 :
Oh, okay.
SPEAKER 16 :
That’s how you isolate the batteries when the key’s off that way.
SPEAKER 08 :
Okay. That’s all you do. Yeah, that makes sense. But, yeah, that’s why I keep my jump box in the truck, because if I’m pushing and it stalls and I’m down on voltage, at least I can jump it to get it back home with my jump box.
SPEAKER 16 :
A dual battery would really eliminate that.
SPEAKER 08 :
All right. Thanks, John. You’re very welcome.
SPEAKER 16 :
Any questions at all, send me a picture of that, and I’ll try to walk you through that too, John. But yeah, for a lot of you that have the older vehicles, got to have a test light on hand or a couple even. As far as the plow end of things goes, I actually keep a test light with me. So if you’re out plowing and even one of my guys needs help or whatever, you can do a really quick fix typically to kind of figure out what’s going on if you’ve got a test light with you. So, yeah, test lights on those, not even a voltmeter or whatever, just a test light on those older vehicles works as easy and as handy as anything. And, by the way, always make sure your test light works. So find a good ground. Hit what you know is going to be a really good power source. Make sure the test light lights up before you actually start testing anything inside of the fuse box because if your test light’s not working properly, you’re going to spend a bunch of time trying to find something that it’s not going to light up for anyway. So always check the test light first before you start in. Make sure you’ve got a good ground, everything’s working properly, and off you go. All right, one more segment coming up. We’ll be right back. Drive Radio, KLZ 560.
SPEAKER 15 :
You listen to Drive Radio because you have a lot of questions about your car. You have questions about what kind of oil to use, what the best tires are, where to get the best parts. But have you ever asked what will happen to your car after you die? Did you know that if you don’t have a will that specifically states what will happen, a probate judge will order your family to split your car evenly. And because you can’t cut up a car into pieces, your family will be forced to sell it and just split the money. According to Michael Bailey, the mobile estate planner, it is estimated that two out of three people don’t have a proper will in place. And oftentimes, things like your favorite classic car are accidentally forgotten completely. Michael understands that the only way to be absolutely certain that all of your final wishes will be honored is to take a small amount of time to talk about it. 720-394-6887 720-394-6887 Call Michael Bailey, the mobile estate planner, right now to set up a free consultation and make absolutely sure that you don’t leave anything to chance.

All right, that one’s easy. Michael Jackson, Thriller. That’s our last one. Charlie, thank you for that as well. I appreciate that. I got an email in on what’s my thought on car sales, where are they headed, the impending implosion of. I’ll talk about that here in just one minute. John in Loveland, though. Go ahead.
SPEAKER 12 :
Yeah, John, I got to thinking. I remember where they used to put a regulator chip on the gauge assembly and behind the dashboard to keep the gauges somewhat at a lower voltage so that they wouldn’t fluctuate with the charge and discharge voltage off the alternator.
SPEAKER 16 :
Right. Is that still done? Not on newer vehicles. On some of the older vehicles, yes. The old Jeeps, for example, that used to run through the fuel gauge and would run everything else. And so every manufacturer kind of did that differently. But, yeah, in the old days they did do that. Not anymore, no.
SPEAKER 12 :
Is that – I didn’t catch the year.
SPEAKER 16 :
On that 80 Chevy, I don’t remember. It might have a regulator built in, but you’d still have something going to that. My fear on that truck is, is there voltage coming out of the fuse box?
SPEAKER 12 :
Exactly, yeah. Okay. But you’re right.
SPEAKER 16 :
No, that’s a great point because, yes, back in the day, those would go bad. Absolutely. Absolutely. Yeah. Okay. Yep. No, you’re right on target, John. Thank you. I appreciate that. And if you’re listening, John and Cheyenne, yep, that’s another thing to look at as well. And somebody emailed me. It’s a good question, by the way. Not to change the script, but I’d like your take on the latest auto news on sales and finance. I read this morning that sometime in the next three months, all new vehicles will be reduced in price by 30%. False. Yeah, that’s not going to happen, folks. I don’t know who’s saying that. I don’t know where they’re getting their info from. I can tell you right now that not going to happen. You might see some deals. And as we get to the end of the year, by the way, it’s common for manufacturers to have deals as we get into the end of the season. They’re trying to get their dealers volume up as much as they can. Even the dealers themselves will offer incentives and so on. Yeah, I could see some incentives coming along on that end of things, but I don’t see a 30% reduction in price. In fact, rarely do you get a reduction in price on a new car. Sometimes from one model year to the next, they might do a price reduction. It actually happened on Ram trucks this year. You could actually buy a 26 Ram truck for about $2,500 less than you could a 2025, depending upon the model and price. and vehicle that you’re looking at. But again, not a huge jump. Nowhere’s near a 30% drop, and I don’t see any 30% drop. Went on to say, the only reason I ask is it might be a possibility regarding multiple issues with the auto industry that involve secondary finance companies, bankruptcies, et cetera. An unusually large number of unsold dealer inventory. And, folks, again, we’ve been through these times before as an industry. Not to say that the industry is always run correctly. I think at times they make more than what they actually should. They don’t pay attention to where the volume’s at. They assume that people are going to buy things when they may not. And I’m not going to tell you there won’t be some slowdown or some closeouts on some particular models depending upon how much you’re on inventory. dealer lots, but is the market going to crash, per se? No, I’m sorry, I don’t see it crashing. And I know there’s a lot of folks out there that always are naysaying that. Keep in mind, I’ve been hearing these naysayers since COVID in 2020, talking about these crashes. Hasn’t happened yet, doesn’t mean it won’t, but I think it’s probably going to be more of the opposite of that. You’re going to see the Fed this week, my prediction is, lower rates. Whether it’s a quarter or a half, they’re going to lower rates. How much, I don’t know. And I think you’re going to see another rate cut in December. All of that helps the car end of things, if you would, the financing, because most people don’t pay cash for a car. They finance a portion, if not all, of the car. And when rates drop, that actually increases the ability for people to actually buy cars. The average price of a car right now is over $50,000. But there’s also some good deals on cars that are out there. There are still a lot of cars out there that are priced in the $25,000 to $30,000 range. It may not be exactly what somebody wants, but can you still buy a new car for that? Yes, you can. And there’s still, this is one thing that I’m always amazed at, still a lot of money out there. People still have money. Not everybody, but some do, meaning they’re still going to sell new cars. They’re not going to stop selling new cars. Fleets need cars. Rental car companies need cars. Corporations need cars. The government needs cars. I mean, you go down the list and they’re still going to make new cars. That’s not going to change. And there’s going to be a big crash in the car market. There’ll be some dips. And there’ll be certain brands, by the way, that get more affected than others. Always the way it is. It’s not going to change. It’s been that way since cars have been made and companies come and go. Companies don’t go as much as they used to. There’s not much consolidation like there used to be. And yes, there are some car companies that are still struggling. Stellantis, by the way, they’re struggling. We’ll see where things end up for them. Nissan, still struggling. At the end of the day, we’ll see if they end up getting bought out and what happens with Nissan, and that includes Infiniti. So will there be some potential hiccups and can some things happen in the car market? Absolutely, like it always does and like it does in every industry. Am I one of the naysayers and do I look at a lot of the things these naysayers say in regards to crashes coming in the car market? No, I don’t see that happening. If you look at still the amount of vehicles that are needed to keep the motoring public going, it’s still huge. And believe it or not, cars are totaled and wrecked every day, meaning every time one of those gets totaled and wrecked, something has to replace it, either coming out of the used market or the new market or a combination thereof. So, no, I don’t see a crash coming. I could be wrong. If I am, believe me, you guys will be the first to know because I’ll talk about it. But, no, I don’t see a crash coming. Are there going to be adjustments? There is always adjustments made in the car market. It is what it is. And when I say cars get totaled out, Roy knows exactly what I’m saying because he does a lot of work for collision centers and so on. And, yeah, cars get totaled, and at the end of the day, they have to be replaced.
SPEAKER 1 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 16 :
Right? Yeah, right. Not going to change that. Yep. And you guys know, you see a lot of cars roll through your place. And, again, I can’t stress this enough. While some struggle to buy cars, and I get it, there are people that struggle to buy a car. I fully understand that. On the other end of the spectrum, there are people that can just go buy whatever car they want to. Mm-hmm. And there’s a lot in between. Literally, it’s everything in between, and it’s why the car market isn’t going to drop out. And I talked about this, I think it was the last week or the week before, where Toyota’s got their whole new luxury line they’re coming out with to try to compete with the Rolls Royces of the year. Why would Toyota be doing that if they thought the whole market was going to crash? They wouldn’t. So to me, look at some of the common sense things. And the other thing I always want to caution everybody on is when you read certain articles and certain things from the quote-unquote experts, first thing you have to look at is where’s this coming from? Who’s talking about this? What’s in it for them, in other words? If they’re more sensational with their story, do more people follow them, view them, click on their videos, and so on? And if so, then are they really being 100% honest or are they saying a lot of insatiable things so that they can have more viewers, clicks, and make more money at the end of the day? So you always have to look at each one of those stories in that way to determine who’s saying this and why. In other words, what’s in it for them versus you? And I’m always leery of a lot of these predictors, I guess you could say, these philosophers in the car world when they start talking about crashes, because personally, I don’t see that coming. Just me. Now, you might get some of these in different places, but, again, that’s regional and or even state by state. But, yeah, I don’t see much in that way. Let’s finish up with window tint one more time. And I was telling Roy and Dietze during the break that I saw an ad the other day. Saw an ad. No, I would never buy this. Somebody selling window tint in a spray can. You spray it on the window. Now, I can’t think of anything more messy and ununiform than spraying on window tint. Your thoughts, Dietze?
SPEAKER 21 :
So I just did a really quick search on it because I hadn’t really heard anything about it. But, yes, that’s essentially what people say. It’s a huge mess. If you do it yourself, it’s probably not going to be that great. So if you do want to do it, I guess you can.
SPEAKER 16 :
Do it at your own risk. I can’t imagine the mess and even getting that –
SPEAKER 21 :
off if it doesn’t go well because you’re spraying it it’s like taking the spray you know spray paint one of the main concerns was that it’s probably not going to come out right if you do it yourself and getting it off is it’s pretty hard
SPEAKER 16 :
Point being, for me, that’s a no for me. I mean, straight up, that’s a no. Sort of like back in the day, the chrome in a can, which, by the way, never looked like they said it was going to look. The chrome in a can never came out well. Hated that stuff. Rarely used it, if ever, because it never looked like they said it was going to. I can imagine this being a very similar product.
SPEAKER 21 :
Yeah, and it also doesn’t have the benefits that window film does.
SPEAKER 16 :
Yeah. Yeah. And I should mention this too, and Ditsy, you can talk about this. We’ve got about a minute left here. Quality of window tint, big difference from one to another, is there?
SPEAKER 21 :
Yes. Whether it’s brands and even within the same brand, there’s different qualities of it from just a carbon-based window tint to a ceramic tint.
SPEAKER 16 :
Gotcha. Gotcha. So, again, in all of that, these guys can explain. They can talk to you about the percentage of light that comes through. Where would you use that? Also, one last thing to close out with, just because you have deep tinted glass, privacy glass they call it, that doesn’t give you any UV protection. People think that it does, but Dietze, it does not, right?
SPEAKER 21 :
No, not as much as you’d like.
SPEAKER 16 :
So if you’re thinking I’m going to have my kids in the back and I’m going to have UV protection because I’ve got the smoke-dark tinted windows and so on, yeah, no, you don’t.
SPEAKER 21 :
No.
SPEAKER 16 :
Not at the end of the day. All right. That’s it for today, guys. Roy, Dietze, give them your phone number one more time.
SPEAKER 21 :
720-832-8481. All right.
SPEAKER 16 :
