Today's vehicles come equipped with halogen head lamp bulbs, they are brighter and for the most part a lot easier to replace then the old style bulbs of years past.
When replacing any halogen type bulb please be careful not to allow your fingers to touch the glass on the bulb, your skins oils can shorten the bulb life by half being they develop high intense heat, which explains why they are so bright and excellent for night driving.
Also please use care when installing a light film of dielectric grease on the electrical connector plugs, don't get that grease on the bulb either, the dielectric grease keeps the connectors moisture and corrosion free for extended bulb life as well.
AMBIENT 5 DAY FORECASTER
If the product appears to work, then it's most likely it's simply broken. Something responsible for lighting up the day L.C.D. isn't connecting or is shorted out. Take your receipt to place of purchase for a new one. Not many pros can fix just the Day part of LCD displays; the expense outweighs the cost of a new one.
One thing to consider is these types of LCD read-outs are sensitive to water. Did you get it wet, or place it in a very steamy room (shower, clothes drier) ?
That would explain the problem but my advise is still the same. If receipt is gone, sell it at a Flea Market; caveat emptor (Latin for marketplace law, "Let the Buyer beware" - you needn't necessarily tell anyone the Day is broken and you can use the proceeds towards a new one, lol!

What standard wrench replaces a 25 mm wrench
That is just under 1 inch. 25 mm is 0.98 inches. 25.4 is 1 inch.
I'd use a 1 inch and hope it isn't too tight. If you had some real rare wrenches like a 63/64th that is very close.

Just got a new electric string trimmer earthwise
You can use one hole, but the head has 2 holes because it is a dual line trimmer, able to use 2 lines at once, supposedly faster to trim with 2 lines, but will work equally well with one.

Want a operating manual for saw zall
I believe that one has the quick release chuck, right? The one where you rotate the outer ring to release the blade? I would turn it to the release position with it pointing towards the floor and tap on the side of the chuck with a screwdriver handle or small hammer. (you may need help with this due to lack of extra hands, and of course, unplug it first.) Good Luck.

Protection from Home, and Office, Invasion
Perhaps the safest and best weapon you can use to protect yourself during a home invasion, or an office invasion for that matter, is a can of wasp and hornet spray. Yes, that's right, the stuff you buy at the hardware store when it's time to paint the house or get rid of a nest up in the eaves. Why is this so good. Because it will accurately spray up to twenty feet [20'] while a small can of mace or pepper spray only has a range of five feet [5']. And, if the perpetrator is hit in the face and eyes he will have to go to an emergency room for the antidote.
Buy a couple of cans, then when you actually need a wasp spray use it and replace your "weaponized" can with a fresh one!

Pin point bearing noises
If you have what sounds like a bearing noise in your car and can't pin point it.Use a long screw driver and place metal end on solid area near noise and the plastic right at your ear this will amplify the noise without purchasing a expensive mechanics listening tool.

How do I attach multitool parts to my HT20VSK
To change bits you should unplug the device.
Turn the shaft while pressing on the lock button located toward the tip of the machine. Turn until lock button is allowed to depress fully.
While holding the lock button loosen the collet nut at the tip of the machine.
Remove the bit you want to replace and slide in the new one.
Sometimes you will have to tap lightly on the top of the bit to get it to release.
You may at times have to replace the chuck to accommodate the different shaft dimensions of some of the bits.
To do this you will have to remove the collet nut completely to remove the chuck.
