    My husband was the guy who could fix or make a needed part for just about anything. He passed away a couple of years ago. Since then I’m continually reminded how handy he was and I’m not. It seems that I continually need to ask for help or learn something new that he would’ve completed in a couple of minutes. Though disabled I prefer to do things myself whenever I can. My refrigerator is failing and the salesman at the store where I bought the new one told me that if there wasn’t a shut off valve behind the fridge they wouldn’t connect the icemaker. I found the shutoff valve my husband had purchased and looked at another one that he’d installed. I know that I’d better know what I’m doing and since I didn’t know how to install the shutoff valve I went to my computer. I found and watched your video twice to make sure I get it. I learned something new today and I can do it myself. Thank you.

    Does a code PO305--cylinder 5 misfire detected mean it's only the cylinder that needs changing and not the spark plug? As a female that's new to doing my own vehicle repairs since I was ripped off once, I'm still learning and wanted to get your input to take care of my 2000 ford expedition 4.6L V8 Triton XLT.

    • @mybatterhalf6614

      @flowersfam3462 thank you for your question. A P0305 code could mean either a bad spark plug or a bad coil pack. Hopefully, it's not the cylinder itself, but that unfortunately is a possibility also. If you don't have access to a code reader, then I would take your truck to Auto Zone or Advanced Auto and see if they can narrow it down for you. I hope that helped in answering your question. Thank you and have a good day.

      Thank you for watching the video and for your inquiry. When the water is depleted from the Steam Shot, it will stop releasing steam. One thing to keep in mind is you always want to let the machine cool off for a few minutes before you refill it with water because it will be very hot inside there and you could burn your hand if you're not careful. Again, Thank you for watching the video.

    • @mybatterhalf6614
      @mybatterhalf6614 11 місяців тому

      The only reason an electrician would tell you that is to gain your business. You definitely don't need new wiring. As far as the wires not being labeled, you can lebel them yourself. When you get the old thermostat off the wall, before you disconnect the wires, notice where they are connected on the back. The connections will be labeled, and that is what you want to label the wires as. I hope that answered your question. Thank you for watching the video and for your inquiry.

  • @sandiegochocolatefountains

    I don’t understand why you didn’t place the metal inserts into each side when you installed it on the actual refrigerator waterlines. You did it during the example, but when you went to go install it on the fridge, I didn’t even see them. Please help me to understand what I missing here. I’m going to attempt to do this on my fridge because I had a delivery today for a new fridge and they could not install it because there is no shut off valve. I definitely cannot afford to have a plumber open up my wall so I thought this would be an alternative.

    • @mybatterhalf6614
      @mybatterhalf6614 11 місяців тому

      Hi Laura, thank you for watching the video and for your inquiry. The main function of the metal inserts is to add stability to the plastic water line, so when you tighten the fittings they will have something to grab onto and not pinch the line. The reason I didn't use them on the actual water lines is because they were made of a much sturdier material, thus the inserts weren't needed. Those inserts will be used if your water line is made of the very thin plastic like my example line was. When you get behind your refrigerator, look at the water lines and see if they are made of sturdy hard plastic or the flimsy clear plastic. If they are made of the flimsy kind ,then you will need the metal inserts. Also, if your water line is made of copper, then you won't need the inserts for that either. I hope that answered your question. Thank you so much. Bill

Edit: Went to Home Depot website, looked up the valve and looked through the questions. Someone provided useful instructions: LOOKING DOWN AT THE STEM/HANDLE FROM THE TOP OF THE VALVE,, TO TURN THE FLOW OFF, TURN THE HANDLE 'CLOCKWISE'. TO TURN THE FLOW ON...TURN THE HANDLE 'COUNTER-CLOCKWISE'
