When you buy a used vehicle you always wonder what the first problem will be. So when the "check engine" light came on while driving home it was frustrating but not all that surprising. I was overjoyed t the thought that I had bought a very good 5 yr /60,000 mile warranty! So I had an appointment this morning with a mechanic to check it out. Also when we left Homosassa I was not convinced that the trailer brakes were working right. The mechanic said the code reader was for a Nitous Oxide sensor and that could be why the brakes didn't work. All I could think was what kind of idiot engineer made the trailer brakes turn off when a NOX sensor reading was off???
Next stop was the local Dodge dealer. We have an appointment for tomorrow morning.
This afternoon I fixed the trailer brake problem. It was a bent contact in the plug. Took 2 minutes and most of that was getting the pliers.
Drove around the park a while when we came back and saw a big turtle beside the road. Stopped by for a visit and watched him eat some grass. A half mile farther we saw 2 deer crossing the road. While walking Cal before bedtime we had some small critter cross in front of us. That got Cal all excited. Quite a wildlife park!
