When I took my Contour in to have the blower switch replaced, they left the radio disconnected. It only took about a minute to connect it.
I would never work as a technician at a dealership. They push the technicians to go faster and faster. Thatâ??s just not my cup of tea. I think I failed about every speed test that I ever took.
I owned a small repair shop a few years ago and I set my own pace. I made more money parting out cars than servicing them. People would drive 200 miles to get a used transmission for $375 to $500. People almost give the cars away if they are wrecked or have a bad engine or transmission. No shops where I live will service the imports so that was where I made most of my money.
One person drove 215 miles to pick up a Taurus transmission. We put the Taurus transmission into his compact hatchback car and the rear bumper was almost touching the ground when he left. He had his tools and coveralls. He was planning on removing the transmission himself but I had already removed the transmission.
I would still like to do repair work but my back started going bad and I had to quit repair work.
