Fog on right side of photos

We sometimes see a vertical foggy area on approximately 1/4 of the right hand side of the photo. It is always the same shape, just a band that goes from the top to the bottom of the photo. Its not clear if it happens in any particular setting, it seems sort of random. What could be causing this? How could we troubleshoot?

Assuming the film door opens from the right, then the most likely reason is the light seal on the door. If it's just got dirty, brush it clean with a stiff brush. If it's badly worn then a camera repair shop may replace it for a reasonable fee - although I have done DIY repairs on this sort of thing using velvet :). Not for the faint-hearted tho'.

BTW the reason it's random is probably that it depends on how long each shot was in the gate before winding on and the ambient light conditions.

Hi, when I take photos by my recesky there is always white small area at the left side of the photos.

Ah,the joys of lomography! You apparently have a light leak somewhere on the right side of the camera. If there are any joints, try covering them with black electrical tape and shoot another roll to see the results.

Or learn to enjoy the sometimes-unpredictable art of lomography.

01 jetta tdi , lower tail light sockets have room for 2 bulbs on each side , the inner ones light up in reverse but the outer bulbs do not light when other do like parking , stop , 4ways and so on = can...

The outer bulbs may not be used in your vehicle's application. Sometimes VW's and other European vehicles are equipped with rear lights that are used in foggy weather. They will come on when the fog lamps are activated and the switch on the dash will give the driver the option to turn on the right one or the left one depending on whether you are in a country that has left hand driving or right hand driving. The lights are there for "parking purposes" so that the vehicle can be seen in extreme fog conditions when parked on the street. If the vehicle isn't equipped with the system, the taillights may have provisions for it anyway.

Need a fuse box diagram to wire in fog lights

Fog lamps are installed on the front bumper. The switch is located to the left of the steering column on the dash panel. The fog lamps are turned off by the circuit relay when the high beam driving lamps are turned on. The circuit relay is located on the right front wheelhouse panel near the blower motor.

Good luck, and remember rated this help.
Removal & InstallationFog Lamp Element
See Figure 1

Fig. 1: Exploded view of a fog lamp assembly

  1. Remove the lamp stone shields, the four bezel attaching screws, and the bezel.
  2. Remove the reflector assembly from the lamp body.
  3. Remove the bulb holder from the assembly. Remove the element from the bulb.

DO NOT handle elements with your bare hands, always handle with a clean cloth. Oil from your hands will cause the element to fail.
  1. Installation is the reverse of removal.

Fog Lamp Switch
The fog lamp switch is removed and installed by simply prying the switch from the instrument panel and unplugging the electrical connector.
FOGLAMP BEAM ADJUSTMENT

  1. Position the vehicle on a level surface, facing a wall approximately 25 feet away. Remove the lamp stone shields and loosen the adjustment nuts.
  2. Turn the fog lamps ON and adjust as follows:
    1. Distance between the light beam centers should be equal to the distance between the lamp assemblies on the bumper.
    2. Height of the light beams on the wall should be 4 inches less than the center of the lamp assemblies when mounted on the bumper.
  3. Install all previously removed items after turning OFF the fog lamps.

Maytag Microwage display screen is foggy

At our Web site, we have a video available showing how to remove a typical over the range control panel assembly in under 5 minutes.

Then you can detach the keypad connector (as per attached photo) then remove the control panel screws.

Be careful not to crack the glass display when handling it, or it's a goner.

Then you can use a soft cloth (not a paper towel) and a mild cleaner (not ammonia-based) to clean the front surface of the VFD display glass and the rear side of the clear bezel (display window) that's attached to the keypad.

Direct spraying of cleaners on the keypad and steam from the cooktop can damage the controls.

I always recommend that you spray non-ammonia cleaner on a soft cloth (not a paper towel which can scratch) and gently wipe the keypad.

We're happy to help you with free advice and we'd appreciate your thoughtful rating of our answer.

Photo size too large for email

You can do that in 2 ways.

1) Shoot the photo or video in reduced size (less quality). This can achieved by adjusting the settings in your camera.

2) Use 3rd party software like photoshop or Microsoft paint to manually reduce the size using it.

Reduce photo size

Try Picassa. All you need to do is to make some basic correction. very very minimum that you dont even know that there is a change. save the photo back into a different location. You will see a change in the pic size.

Alternatively, google for Digital Photo Resizer. I used a trial version for sometime and it helped.
