    Assessing tire condition- NDT bias tires

    Dry rot is a crap shoot. I have had tires with cracks that I drove on for years , made in the 60’s recapped in the 70’s driven till 2020. Still worked till I put on some “newer” shoes. Have some “army” recaps from the 90’s that looked new but came apart as soon as they hit blacktop.

    Humvee cluster acting up solved

    A dead short “would” allow for the breaker to reset for a second before re tripping , the resistance from the length to the short would allow it to reset , the lower voltage takes a second to heat up unlike the house voltage that trips instantly , higher voltage heats wire faster.

    Humvee cluster acting up solved

    I would say theirs a short someplace and the circuit breaker is tripping , comes on for 1 sec and Tripp’s off. You’ll find it when it catches fire. 🤨 or you start looking for a shorted min feed wire
