If you were as inattentive as I was, you might have missed important details necessary to complete this quest.

The quest must be completed by following the Steamwarden Hurlt's instructions within the allotted time.
If you make a mistake or miss a choice, don’t worry—just talk to the Steamwarden Hurlt again, and the mini-game will restart.
The sequence of tasks is always different, so be sure to carefully follow the instructions each time.
Note: If you are not sure what to press on when he calls, just hover with mouseover outlined equipment and you will see the names in the tooltip.

Friends,

Make sure you don't have an addon that turns off NPC dialogue in a city/town. :)

This type of quests... i hate it i hate it I HATE IT! New expansion and already second quest with a "watch chat like idiot, filter out NPC spam and click correct button like baboon".

I hoped those quests would never ever return after annoying Shadowlands where I remember some of them to this date.
Little did I know Dragonflight was done by other WoW dev team and the annoying Jim from SL is back at it again...

This quest seems to be bugged for me. I can't seem to click fast enough to get the NPC to accept my work. There is a several second delay between when I click and when my character performs the action. By the time my actions register onscreen, the NPC is already fed up and tells me to start over.

I was able to complete it today with no one around. This quest is very lag intolerant.

Comment by Avelandea

It's pretty clear only one person can do this reliably - if two people click on the same object it often doesn't register properly. You can click on it again and have it register, but you do risk blowing the entire quest if you do any action twice.

Make sure you have a chat bubble enabled. Way easier to react and act. I think it requires clicking around 6-7 times. Options->Interface> Chat Bubbles-> All

If you are facing North (look at mini map), these are the chat directions.

NPC yells out the issue, you need to read and click the correct shiny.

North East is the "read the numbers"

North West is the "valve turn it off"

South East is the "control panel"

South West is the "pipe's coming loose"

Hope this helps.

You need to have fast reflexes for this one. Also, don't double click and don't try it with multiple people around. Disable all add-ons to prevent any lag. They need to slow the time-out on this one - even an extra second makes a difference between pass/fail.

I find this helpful, turn on click to move, then you just hand click on the item called for, character moves to it and does the action required. I also have chat bubbles on which others have mentioned.

Copy pasted quest that I think I've done atleast 100 times by now over my course of playing WoW.
It's not a very fun quest and somehow he fails me everytime because I don't know what to click when he calls for maintenance?
Like what are you talking about dude just tell me to kill 20 of some type of mob instead and I can do that for u instead of this please

Comment by Frydaddy

NPC yells out the issue, you need to read and click the correct shiny. If you are facing North, THESE are the chat directions:

"What's the pressure at, now? Read me those numbers, now! "
Upper Right (North East)

"The pressure's too much! Throw the shutoff lever!"
Upper Left (North West)

"That pipe's coming loose! Quick, smack it back into place! "
Bottom left (South West)

"The blasted console is stuck! A little percussive maintenance should loosen it up. "
Bottom Right (South East)

any addons or weekaura for helping this stuped quest

Comment by Veranteja

I HATE this quest
once you have finished reading the text and gotten front of the right machine and click it, this guy has already changed his mind which machine he wants you to read.
Seriously blizzard, do better

Comment by Maille

Ugh! I did this on my main and now I'm on my alt. I can pick up the quest starting point from Skitter but I can't pick up from Fourman Grimes or Janky or Granny Scribbles. it does say my Warband previously completed this quest. So does that mean I can't do it on any of my alts?

Comment by facetiousgerbil

What would really help is if the items stay lit up as long as you're on the quest, so you can actually read what you're supposed to be looking at before he yells at you for being too slow and turns off the buttons again. I hate this quest.

Comment by Zoiphy

"throw the shutoff lever!" the toggle lever on the ground

"read me those numbers" - click the circle shaped gauge

"the blasted console is stuck!" - the control panel square box

"pipe is coming loose" - the pipe

Comment by sarahlogic

A lot of players, including tauren on extra-large mounts like to hang out here, but using the Overtuned Corgi Goggles helped a bit. Mounts can still be in the way but they are reduced a bit. If other players are doing the quest, it's easier to click on the items, as well. The Murglasses toy could also work.

Also, I always have "interact on left click" in controls set, so I click each item to run to it quickly. Having quests like this is an accessibility issue and should not have such a short time limit.

Comment by Zazopoulos

If you stuck like me, just drop the quest and take it again. Make sure that you will just talk with the Steamwarden Hurlt without do whatever you want, otherwise it will stuck again.
