+On Monday 2020-10-26 I blew out the front drivers-side tire on a pothole on Fish Hatchery road.
+I was driving to the Gym very early, between 4 and 5.
+I put on the spare tire and limped back home.

+<h2>2020-12-26 electrical problems</h2>
+
+On Saturday the 26th Blaise observed three problems with my car:
+
+<ul>
+  <li>shifter did not release from park when starting (worked with override)</li>
+  <li>cruse control did not work</li>
+  <li>brake lights did not work</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>
+The common denominator is the brake switch, which we investigated.
+Eventually we found that the 20 A "stop" fuse which fuses the brake lights was being burnt out every time the brake was depressed.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+Some splicing work for the brake light in the roof of the trunk was found to be shorting out.
+After fixing this problem, the car seems to work fine.
+However cruse control is still broken.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+In the process of fixing this problem David reset the car computer by disconnecting the battery for several seconds.
+We also discovered that the rear passenger-side brake light was broken, which could be coincidental.
+The brake light was replaced the next day, working fine.

+Although we could not measure any problems with the brake switch, Blaise is still suspicious and would like to see that switch replaced.
