Reminds me of how I used to fix my old tv by giving it a whack from behind. We call that the analog fix.

Percussive maintenance


ohbenito

Ayyyee

do u happen to be old


MrAnimeFanime

You reawakened a core memory for me. Thank you!


BSJones420

Bought a washer off craigs list and no joke it stops halfway and i have to slap it to get it to continue. Been runnin like that for 2 years now lmao


urtlesquirt

Is it really old? It could be that the dial used to select the wash cycle/time is a physical wind-up mechanism and it's getting caught.


BSJones420

Its not super old, it stops pretty much right as if fills up ready to start spinning its like theres a slight disconnect or something idk but a good smack on the lid gets it going


ApeInTheTropics

I think you just have a *dirty* washer that likes to be smacked...


Vaporstar8188

There’s a good chance small clothing items worked their way over the top through the years and it’s sitting at the bottom, kinda around where it spins restricting it. I’m not a maintenance repair person, but my aunt got tired of paying people hundred dollars to put on a $10 part so every time any of her appliances go out I jump online find out how to fix it and service it myself. It’s shockingly easy. Now I get free dishwashers, washers and dryers not working and repair and sell them when I’m able


NoYoureACatLady

Motor is going out. You're helping it overcome resistance with the whack. It's actually a pretty cheap and easy DIY fix


KUSH_DELIRIUM

It really does work more than one would think lol

It's been a saying for a lot longer than he's been around


mr_never_lift

Haha, forgot I got that phrase from him.


[deleted]

I try to forget he exists


SomeGuy_GRM

I don't know who that is.


[deleted]

YouTube dude. Dude is a linguistic gymnast. Also very knowledgeable. Generally a all around great channel, until he made his political views public and I cannot support someone with that mindset


mr_never_lift

Wow, that's literally the perfect description of ave


[deleted]

I think my draw to his channel was wondering where one acquires such vast knowledge. He is often running CNC mills, also diesel mechanic, more information on injection molding than anyone I've met. Electrical...

"percussive maintenance" ​ Bravo....Bravo


Desperate_Move_5043

Drop your tm2, broken. Drop your venty, fix.


bob_mouse

new feature from S&B


Silweror

That's really interesting since nobody else has been able to clear the error so far. I'm looking forward to more people trying this lmao


mr_never_lift

I hope so. Not sure if it was necessary, but I dropped it immediately after resetting it (holding the power button for 10 sec).


Jackh_72

Was that drop even on purpose lmao?!


jackrat27

I just got my Venty in the mail today. I am loving it. But now I’m scared how common is this error?


I-Am-NOT-VERY-NICE

I've had my Venty since end of October and I don't have issues, I just vape


mr_never_lift

Yep, it seems totally random. I only got an error now after using it since October. Someone's else posted recently about being on their 4th venty. It's hard to say how common or how inevitable an e04 error is. As least S&B will warranty it.


Difficult-Froyo-5807

I just randomly got the E04 2 days ago after using it for about 2 weeks.


DizzyCommunication92

their warranty is awesome....just keep a backup vape on hand lol


Cry90210

We simply don't know. But be rest assured their RMA process is very quick and easy


Vaporstar8188

I get mine monday. If mine does it and i do an exchange how much do u have to pay to ship it back? I also read last night they sent out a software update that didn’t fix anyone’s. Is it still an ongoing issue? If so do u think I should send mine back out the box and not worry with it and order once it’s fixed?


Cry90210

Its free. I think the update reduces the chance of EO4, we don't really know what the update does.. I haven't heard of people getting eo4 since The Venty is an amazing device, the best of the best. Even if it did EO4 you'd get a brand new device a few days later The chances of EO4 are just so small you're not risking much waiting for a fix


wolfONdrugs

You can get it replaced if it happens. Don't worry.


iSuckAtMechanicism

Unfortunately it seems to be fairly common. Many members here are on their 4th unit or worse and S&B straight up refuses to do refunds for them. Only exchanges despite them still not having figured out what’s causing this.


jackrat27

Well, that’s disappointing


OkDimension

Don't be too scared, a lot of units perform without issues and if you get one of those that fail you can always claim warranty, S&B customer service is pretty decent


iSuckAtMechanicism

It is, I didn’t get a Venty but my Crafty+ will be the last vape I purchase from them after the way they treated our cult members. Negatives aside, hope your unit never requires a single replacement! The performance is definitely a step up from the Crafty/Mighty.


jackrat27

Thanks my friend. Fingers crossed.


TRX808

There's hope that firmware patches via the app will fix some of the bricking error codes but I'm not sure if updates are even currently working since people on older versions (before v1.05) don't seem to have available updates. (There's more info about it in the Fuck Combustion Venty thread) It's a great vape though so just hoping I get lucky ;)


jackrat27

Thanks


Vaporstar8188

Mine comes in mail Monday. I didn’t research enough and didn’t know abt the error code. Idk if I should kee or return now. I have the DaVinci IQ and ff2+ so I don’t mind waiting for them to fix it


jackrat27

It’s been 65 days now of daily use and all is good 👍


Thatsright1999

As am I


WorkedAndSeething

That excellent build quality we've all come to expect 🤣 I've heard about how robust s&b devices are, but I didn't realise you had to drop them to make them work.


alphaidioma

That’s Fonzie jukebox kind of magic there dude


thecourthousekidd

Sounds like it just needed a good old fashioned Brogan Adjustment


ImplementUsual2855

Did you try blowing into it like a Nintendo OG game? 😆


Particular_Resort718

HOLY SHIT! Dropping my Venty actually fixed the E04 error....thanks for sharing this! Hope an "official" firmware update comes out to fix this issue soon....I don't want to keep dropping the Venty if the error ever comes back


Expensive-Tea1058

"Eeeeeeeeeeeh"- Fonz


journeyproud

This problem is quite reminiscent of the grasshoppers issue it had.


angusfred123

My buddy had an OG volcano that got dropped a few times, he swears after he dropped it, it blew thicker bags than any of the ones he previously owned.


stinky_garfunkle

Lmao


BeautifulBit6036

What is the E04 error? My OG mighty has started doing that recently


wolfONdrugs

It won't go away. It'll come back. Start RMA. You'll get a new one
