max power Posted December 13, 2010 Report Share Posted December 13, 2010 The inverter in my work truck is taking a shit on me and needs service. My company told me to call the leasing company and they threw it back on me. It used to power saws and other power tools, but right now its having trouble handling the printer.Know of any place around columbus that works on these things?

flounder Posted December 13, 2010 Report Share Posted December 13, 2010 What size inverter is it? If it were a normal truck like a Toyota which has a built in inverter I would say any shop worth its weight in salt. Since you said it runs saws and the like, Im guessing its a more industrial setup which may be able to be fixed but at a specialty location.

Definitely an industrial thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

max power Posted December 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2010 It only has 2 batteries (+ the truck battery) but, yeah its huge. Not sure how many watts, but its a big one like you would see in motorhomes and the like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWing'R Posted December 14, 2010 Report Share Posted December 14, 2010 Guess you shouldn't have been using it to power that monster dildo of yours Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I called my uncle who works for Farber and he said they dont work on them.There is an auto electric shop in whitehall I may call, but I'd have to drop it off and leave it which isnt an option as I need to drive it every day.

Ive been in that boat before. Looks like its time to throw a generator in the bed of the truck until you have time you can leave it somewhere.

max power Posted December 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2010 I could take it somewhere and wait if they did it by appointment, but I dont own a generator and its a 1 ton van. a gas generator wouldnt work out too well.

Gump Posted December 14, 2010 Report Share Posted December 14, 2010 Harbor freight has those. I bought a big one once. Can you get to the inverter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
max power Posted December 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2010 yeah, if I pull the ladder out and get some parts boxes out of the way. It takes up all the space under the shelves in front of the wheel well on the drivers side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jporter12 Posted December 14, 2010 Report Share Posted December 14, 2010 There are some other auto-electric shops around Columbus, I think there's one on Refugee, near 104. Do some calling around is all I know to tell you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
max power Posted December 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2010 refugee and 104 is closer than the place at Main and Barnett and not quite as Hood. I'll see what I can find out. Got a name or anything? Where the hell did I put that Yellowpages? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
