I tell them I can only give a repair estimate if they can tell the cause.

I've had to tell clients, finding the problem can be a fairly extensive process, having a solution is the easy part.

Why does spell check change it after the whole post is done? “Drove” Then you don’t notice it unless you proof read it.

I get that too. Drives me nuts, even though that’s a short drive. At least we do now have editing for just a few minutes.

Rest of the story. She had called her regular guy Monday & he was out of town. Her daughter asked me to look at it. I’ve done work for both of them.
Other guy came today as I was opening panels again. He found a neutral lug slightly loose in a crossbar with several others. It was very slight but I should have seen it before. He had a crows foot lug & used it on the neutral bar. All good.

Reminds of of more than once, near the end of the day...wife calls asking when I'm gonna be home for dinner...I tell her, well, I might leave in 10 minutes or it might be a few hours, just don't know yet

Oh yes, I did a few of those calls to my wife. "If it's a light bulb, I'll be out of here in 30 minutes, could be all night if I have to hunt and peck." Wife, "So you don't know how long it will take?" Me, "If it's a light bulb........."
