What does the flashing FL mean?

When the Jump-Starter is fully charged, the display will read FL. Disconnect the AC extension cord from the 110/120-volt AC outlet, and then disconnect it from the Jump-Starter AC charging plug. http://www.carid.com/images/peak/info/pdfs/pkc0j6-manual.pdf

Brand new ,had 79 percent charge from store,i went to use it . wouldnt start car.plugged in to charge read fl [flashing] says nothing about fl in owners manual.whats up with it.thanks ralph

These "cheap jump starters" are little more than a Lead/Acid battery much like what is in your car. If they sit too long on the shelf of your local department store, without having a charge maintained, the cells in the battery will eventually collapse rendering them next to useless without quite a bit of work trickle charging them back to life. As the proud owner of several of these useless boat anchors I can advise you to save your money and just buy a really good vehicle battery (Interstate) that will be there when you need it, instead of wasting money on Wallymart specials that last 2 maybe 3 years. I have learned..... ;-) Take it back and get your money.

Do you have any marine or off road ie 4 wheelers, stuff like that store near you. those kinds of machines have smaller batteries that they can order for you. or a Batteries plus, im thinking they can order you something at one of those places.

The mail power plug is bad

well then, how handy are you, depending you may slightly bend the prongs or tabs further open that will work for a while or you can goto a building supply chain store and ask for a new plug. They are pretty easy to install, a wire cutter stripper and a Phillips screwdriver. and 5 minutes. if your not sure how to actually do it someone at the store will tell you ( menards, home depot, lowes) someone in the electrical department. or you can watch a you tube video on it. the new plugs are 5-15.00 depending on what you want.

Male power port is loose hard to chasrge unit

The port is female with a center pin, the male portion is on the charger. If you damaged this pin and it is loose you will need to replace the plug on the charger. Since these are very similar to some laptop charging ports, having a broken laptop around with same size charging port would be a bonus, or a friend with one too, but they are relatively cheap, I fix broken ones on laptops several times a year and can find a pair of them shipped for under $10 typically. Sometimes you need to solder them on, sometimes they connect with a dongle, should be easy enough to take apart and peek inside. Other wise, if that is beyond your expertise, does the charger have a cigarette lighter, you could likely charge it through that port, or with a trickle charger directly on the battery cables on the unit if need be.

What specifications do i use to get a replacement charger for a Peak Charging Adapter . . . . . . . . 120 volt AC (700mA, 12 volt DC Output

Just as your information says ask for a 12 volt 700 ma charger..but seeing that yours is a 450 amp jumper..any 12 volt that fits your ac input will do the job...one more thing if you do not have a charger..just connect it to your battery and run the engine for 20 min or so it will recharge the car battery and you jumper..also you can get a lighter wire with two lighter plugs and charge it through you lighter..good luck

2001 Cadillac Deville Northstar Engine thermostat location

4.6 Northstar V8. It is located on the rear of engine (driver side) in front. It is in the the water pump housing cover. Remove air box and intake tube and bottom radiator hose. 2 bolts(believe 10mm) on thermostat housing. These systems are a little finicky about air pockets....so fill slowly and let run at idle until operating temp and let cool and check level.....fill as needed and repeat if needed.

Peugeot expert central locking not working

A faulty central locking system might be due to several reasons, such as a blown fuse, faulty solenoid, or electrical wiring issues. Also, it's good to remember the fault might not be with the central car locking system but the key fob instead; over time, fobs require battery changes.

1944c Furuno radar array won't spin 7 years old. Just beeping

It seems like you're dealing with a technical issue related to a Furuno radar array. If the radar array is not spinning and is emitting a beeping sound, there could be several possible reasons for this problem. Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue:
  1. Check Power Supply: Ensure that the radar array is receiving proper power. Check the power cables, connections, and any fuses that might be relevant. Make sure the power source is functional and providing the correct voltage.
  2. Inspect Mechanical Components: If the radar array won't spin, there could be a mechanical issue with the rotating mechanism. Check for any obstructions or debris that might be preventing the rotation. Lubricate any moving parts if necessary.
  3. Connection and Wiring: Examine the connections between the radar array and its control/display unit. Loose or damaged cables could cause communication problems and result in the array not spinning. Ensure all connections are secure and undamaged.
  4. Software and Configuration: Sometimes, software settings or configuration options can affect the operation of the radar array. Check the user manual or documentation to ensure that the radar is properly configured. Try resetting the settings to default and see if that resolves the issue.
  5. Error Codes or Messages: If the radar is emitting beeping sounds, it might be indicating an error condition. Refer to the user manual or any accompanying documentation for a list of error codes or messages and their meanings. This could help pinpoint the problem.
  6. Contact Support: If you've tried the above steps and the issue persists, it might be best to contact Furuno's customer support or a qualified technician for further assistance. They can provide more specific guidance based on the model of your radar array and the symptoms you're experiencing.
Remember, working with electronic equipment requires caution to avoid electrical hazards. If you're not comfortable troubleshooting the issue yourself, it's always a good idea to seek professional help.
