Snowbird Get Together '15

Re: Snowbird Get Together 15'

Hoping that Ford can get a clock spring in stock over night. Then I can get my Stallion up and running. Without it, no turn signals, horn, dimmer switch, or cruise control which means no Fred! Fingers crossed, never heard of any other Stallions having this problem. Clock spring is the ring under the steering wheel that has a ribbon wire that is wrapped like a spring, and runs down the column into the engine area.

Big Dog, did the problem just happen? Maybe they can ship it in by early next week, so you can at least stop by.

I just became aware of it, if nothing else, I'll come over in the pickup. How could I not see you, and Janice along with everyone else!

Fred never heard of that problem but I bet it may have gotten messed up when they took the steering wheel off to install the GPS. It may have taken this long for the spring to finally let go. Just a thought being as far as I know you have the only one that had the wheel removed. Hope they get it fixed for you. Maybe get a used one from a junk yard?
 
Re: Snowbird Get Together 15'

We will be there Saturday late afternoon...LQQK for the Cheetah!
Hey, what about Bruce? WOW..
You are going in Saturday? The Gathering doesn't start till Sunday..Great, don't forget to put the refreshments on ice so they will be nice and cold when we come in on Sunday! LOL
See you Sunday!

Re: Snowbird Get Together 15'

Well, had a nice ride yesterday with Rosy, Janice, Bruce & Deb. Would have went a day or so earlier but when Rosy came down and opened his trailer, the cold N/E weather escaped and it took us a couple of days to warm back up!!! Next time I will request him to stop somewhere in Georgia first and open the trailer there !!!

Ted the clock spring is a sealed unit, the GPS, was conected to the external leads for the air bag. The installer never did anything other than put a test light on the existing leeds. Taking the top off of the broken unit the ribbon is broken about an inch from the top. TMS said that it was not that uncommon, even though it has never been mentioned on TT.

"TMS said that it was not that uncommon" - Great, now something else to look forward to in the future . . .
 
Re: Snowbird Get Together 15'

Strange that was their response. There has got to be 100 Stallion owners that have come and gone on here better than 1/9 of the owners yet this is the first we have heard of it. At least you got it fixed.
 
Re: Snowbird Get Together 15'

Drpepper, if we want to ride the good weather before the Gathering, please let us, unlike you who can ride all winter long, we have to put our trikes away for the winter and cry as we walk by it every day! She sits there and says, WHY, do you put me to sleep? So, I crack open the door, and she shivers from the cold! Now she knows!
We are enjoying the rides..the people...the weather..and the sights!
Hurray for Florida! :pepper:

Re: Snowbird Get Together 15'

I'm still planning to ride over Monday morning. Should be there around 9, maybe a little earlier. Do you think you'll still be at the motel, or do you have any idea on where you're riding Monday? Thanks.
 
Re: Snowbird Get Together 15'

We have 54% chance of rain in the afternoon on Monday, right now.
We may decide on what we are doing Sunday after we get a better view of the weather for Monday.

Re: Snowbird Get Together 15'

Hi everybody,
We are here in Florida! Hurray! Leo, Warren, and Bozo, please keep the snow up there. We heard the roads are going to be closed in different states because of the snow.
Ultrafred, dansifford, it is nice to be here in Florida.

Rosy

Hi Rosy, Are you and Jan in Daytona already? Sent you an email about meeting up for lunch today. If you aren't in the area today, we will see you in the next couple of days :)
