Why wasn't it disconnected and what did he mean by re-pinning. Maybe he figured it out or has someone working on it. Happens all the time here I've seen. Post a question and never come back.

No two people are the same and that saying applies in many ways to this situation .

I read the first reply like this. "What do you mean re-pinning?" which is a good question, nothing wrong with that, but the second half, "if you were doing electrical work, why was the battery connected?" Is like telling the guy he's an idiot for having his battery connected while doing electrical work. If he's litteraly asking him WHY it was connected, what reason could there be to have it connected while he was doing electrical work other than he forgot? So since the OP obviously knows (otherwise why would he bother to mention that it was connected) it was a mistake to have it connected, why would this person ask the OP that question other than to point out that the OP was an idiot for having it connected? That's what it sounded like to me, then the second poster echoed that interpretation. Also in response to the OP not wanting to come back to ask more questions. Men can be prideful sir, and I know that I personally don't like being talked down to, and some men don't even like asking for help at all.. to their own detriment. I don't wanna hijack this thread for our petty miscommunications even though we already have.. I'm pretty sure the OP has moved on too haha. Again I apologize if I offended you sir.

No two people are the same my friend

If I interpreted it that way, someone else could too. That's all I'm trying to say.

Thanks!

Still nothing from the OP..
...which puts me, a comfortable forth. The guy's trolling forum's for a quick fix, which is what we're here for actually. If he returns & answers the questions in my post, I think I have one for em too!

Dear OP I'm sorry if I offended you in any way as far as your problem I can't help much as electrical systems aren't my specialty

Good to look out for the new guy(s), but it's not like he had to run the gauntlet or anything. Don't sweat it.

"Arguing on the internet is like running in the special olympics, wether you win or lose.. you're still retarded."

Didn't mean for it to get blown up like that haha. Just airing out my unwanted opinion .

Someone go fetch the OP! Lol.

Well...im army...and in my unit when you get promoted the company makes two lines and you walk inbetween them and everyone punches you in the chest (where our rank is)...they call it the gauntlet. You can't cover your chest....so I ran through....they made me do it a second time..that was a couple years ago.
