SOURCE: barrcuda inground pool cleaner flips over

Often when you are having this problem with automatic pool cleaners, it has to do with the hose. Make sure that you have plenty of slack in the hose to cover the entire pool. Also, make sure that you do not have any obstructions in the hose and that it is not tangled.

SOURCE: My Barracuda G4 keeps turning

You can check your water flow and make sure that it is not too high, but if your pool cleaners flipping over, there is probably a rather sever issue. Zodiac recommends that you contact your local warranty location if the cleaner is still under warranty.

Zodiac barracuda shark unscrews itself

Sorry, but none of you are actually answering the question. I have the same problem (but with the pacer).
The main internal body of the cleaner, (that houses the diaphragm) keeps unscrewing itself and the inner part is the free to pulse (from the full functional diaphragm) in place, because the pulse generated by the opening and closed diaphragm isn't now able to jolt the outer body and therefore move it around the pool.
There is noting wrong with the diaphragm and nothing lodged inside it.
Does anybody have an answer for *that*?

I washed my car a grand marquis now my alarm keeps going off

Had that problem on a BMW 2002. It was the leads to one or more of the door switches. try using an absorbant cloth and drying around the door alarm switch if it is separate. Somes door alarm leads are tied into the door light switch. Older cars have very obvious push pin switches for lghts. If that solves it, a little slicone sealant around the edge of the switch plate will help. Also, could be a similar switch on the hood or trunck lid.

I have a 5650 lexmark printer and it keeps saying paper jams but there is not paper anywhere.. how can i find a solution... when you load paper it keepps getting stuck.. help

There could be something blocking the paper path. Try to shake the printer upside down. You'll be amazed of the things that falls off inside the printer. Also, make sure that there's no paper left inside the printer. Tiny pieces of paper will still lead to paper jams.

I just installed my G3. It pulsates fine and actually goes backwards instead of forward. Is this correct. Also, it seems to keep on the same path and cleaning only the path it has already cleaned going...

It depends on what you call backwards. These do move in the direction of the hose, not opposite the hose. Try adjusting the hose weights per the installation manual and it should work fine for you.

The battery door on my hp photosmart M525 cracked and will not stay shut, therefore batteries fall out. I used a piece of tape keep the door shut, but it is a nice camera and I want it to work the way it...

Okay, from what you are saying its the weight of the battery that makes the battery cover fall of so i would apply a little, emphasis on little bit of glue before i put in the battery to hold the battery in place so the battery stays in even when the cover is not in place, then find a more stylish way of keeping the cover in place, maybe A LITTLE glue to the ridges that the cover slides on will be enough, you wont have any problem prying both lose when you have to, A LITTLE, lol , Hope this helps..

Little clip

is this a clip for holding something in place or a jumper like this one? 5269983d5c31a7ca
http://www.thg.ru/howto/20020904/print.html link if picture does not show ( scroll halfway down to see jumper photo.

if it looks like this , bend the two pins it goes on apart just a tiny bit before you replace it on the pins, this will add enough tension when you put the jumper on to keep it from freely falling offf

Heater pops the circuit breaker

2a9ae80.jpg
Lakewood 5500 Heater - Here is a picture of the rear side of the open heater thermostat with the two switches for 600 and 990W at the left. The 3oz metal piece is the weight that broke off from the thermostat assembly. It fell down and made a short between the case and the power switch. There is a visible burn mark where the short occurred.

I am convinced that if the heater ever falls over, the metal weight will break off and fall down and probably create a short against the case. It may disconnect the 120V power at the thermostat or cause a high enough current to kick out your breaker in the house.

The attachment of the 3oz metal weight to the back of the thermostat is not strong enough to survive when the heater falls over; it wil break off.
