It's obvious to me that was a severe drop in atmospheric pressure causing the oscilator that impedes the flow to the harmonic disrupter to harmonically distort causing the distribulation device to wobbulate excessively and go into closed loop. This was further exaserbated by a corroded computer connection in the cable which calibrates the apparatus that recalcimines the fortiscube leading to a voltage drop which in essence caused the transmission of innaccurate data to the idiot panel. It's a fairly common occurance ... especially after a long night of indulging! Come on now ... you guys knew that ... right?

1. Find transmission oil level bulb and replace since it's never worked.
2. Reverse gear in the transmission. My shifter goes 5 up, 1 down from neutral. I'm thinking I gotta figure out a way to get it to go 2 down to hit reverse.
3. Dealer said I had heat in the winter, cold air in the summer. Really gotta figure out where they hide those controls.
4. Wheel "self cleaning" applicator. I hear its near the frame somewhere.
5. While I'm at it, I'm gonna need to change that stale air out of the tires and put some fresh in.
(Note: Flame away. I'm babysitting a 5-month old puppy that had major surgery on her intestines, and needs hourly care over the last 2 days. Sleep deprivation made me seriously think about the transmission light posting the OP asked then deleted later, payback time
)
