It appears a black CD Wallet with approximately 60 CDs went missing at the DECA event the Saturday before last. If someone has inadvertently picked it up or knows of its where abouts there is a reward for it's return!

I know this was the last time I took it from my car so I hope someone might be able to help me find it, I would hate to think my first exposure to SAU Vic is going to be soured by theft!

Thanks in advance,

Tim

... You do have to be careful ;)

I really hope it has not gone missing, thats the pits

The locals do like to come and have a gander @ the goings on up in shep.

Not pointing the finger, but i know i could leave my car unlocked around any Vic member and have done so many times.

Hopefully it surfaces Tim.

When was the last time you saw it etc etc?

Many people could steal a CD wallet, there's an unbelievable amount of value in it.

Though as Ash has said, I trust all the Vic member who attend the DECA days. I always leave valuable outside with everyone else, and my car unlocked and I've not had an issue.

*knock on wood*

Good luck with it mate

Hang on ...i was the hillbilly in the silver R32 aparked near you at DECA. I will check all the sh1t that got thrown in my car at the end of the day.

Wayne, GT Auto in Bayswater was also parked next to you and dumped his gear next to mine.(Silver R33 with cage) Ill dif hius number up for you.

Who was parked on the other side?

Tim - where did you unload your stuff - in the carpark?

I have a few boxes of things still in the boot - and I know Chris and Snowy are the same, so will have a look for you.

I had my stuff between the table (shared this table with GAdge and his son) and a tree right near where you walk though to the carpark adjacent to the office where we did registration (if that makes sense?)

If people do have stuff that it could be amongst and wouldn't mind checking, I'll be at the AGM tonight!

Thanks,

Tim

Yeah sorry Tim I was next to you but I didn't have that much stuff to throw into the car..My stuff was next to brenton's (random dude) on the tree..had a look and nothing mate,

Hope it shows up

I'll check my stuff too, as it may have been mixed up, and i've still got stuff in my car...

I'd hate to think that any DECA attendee would deliberately pinch it... and I don't believe it to be the case.

Well, my car and tools were next to Troys, and at the end of the day my mates and I had to search for some of my expensive tools, and found them in another competitors toolbox on the other side of the carpark! I was never asked/told that they were "borrowed" from me.

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
