Hey everyone, my car makes a squeel when I first leave my driveway everyday. It's a high pitch sound like scraping a chalk board.

It only lasts for 20 seconds of driving and wont come back unless I let the car sit for 12 hours or more.

My front brakes are in good shape less than a year old

Any ideas in what it is?

Hey all, I have a ventless washer/dryer combo unit that runs on 120V, rated at 12amps. It's powered by a new, dedicated 15amp circuit and a gfci outlet. As soon as the washer begins to rotate the drum, it trips the gfci outlet. The same receptacle can run a 12 amp heat gun like normal. The machine works when I run it off a standard 15amp receptacle.

Any insight on my problem? Using a regular receptacle isn't permitted in the bathroom.

Thanks in advance.

Hey wise sparkys and everyone else, I'm having a hard time trouble shooting a trip on an afci breaker-ed circuit. I ran 6 new circuits from a sub panel for a tiny house (all on afci breakers, 5 of them work fine). The one that trips will trip even with the hot wire disconnected from the breaker. What does this mean? Thanks in advance. Schneider home line panel & plug on neutral breakers if that helps.

My bag was stolen from a public pool and it contained my wallet, keys and phone. The Find My IPhone feature shows that it's in a house just a few minutes drive from where it was taken. The police have been utterly incompetent in helping as a crime of this scale is apparently too small to investigate with any will.

SO: How could I get the phone back from this person without doing anything incriminating?
