We all like DIY's.

Some are good at it, and are able to record videos.

Some are scared at doing it alone for the first time to avoid breaking or screwing up something, videos are helpful, but it still remains hard for some people to do DIY maintenance alone for the first time...

i think there should be a DIY school in each city

are you referring to trade schools?

whats that...
trade school :S

DIY over here means filling air in tires or putting water in washer fluid section (which is also rare)
some ppl get air filled in tires only during servicing.

there's no DIY oil change, or DIY mods or DIY electrical...
ppl pay the shop people to install stuff...


i always wanted to do stuff on my own... but im scared to break anything...

for example - now i got tweezers stuck in my ac vents..
i followed athikerguy4life's video to gain access to the vents, but i couldnt do it, and then i was scared to break something
now i have to go to a mechanic to get it removed....

I always wanted to learn and be able to solve car problems on my own....

Quick DIY tip for your problem

A simple way to get the tweezers out of the vent is to get an ineexpensive magnet, attached it to a clothes hanger and fish for the tweezers. If they are plastic, take some duck tape inside out to the same clothes hanger and go fish!

i was fiddling when it was stuck in the vent....
and it went inside and fell down with a "cartoonic effects" sound

if i try to turn the ac knob to vents/legs/windshield, the knob gets stuck, and i hear the tweezer bouncing inside the underground dungeons.

Sounds like someone needs to get in the vent system and dig for it.

hi,

honestly, i did not get time to open the part for which u gave instructions...
[i was shifting my home + projects]

but i figured out one thing...

the object (tweezers), has fallen DEEEP down and has reached the fins (which directly airflow to vents/legs/windshield)....
infact the knob to move the fins cannot reach the extreme sides for directing the airflow only to vents or only to windshield (it just cannot get fixed in that position).


So the location is pinpointed - fins.
i hope athikerguy4life or someone else has the magic key to this section...
now im ready for some DIY!
