Half-Life: Blue Shift Hints

How do I get through the coolant pump door?

  • 1 of 9: Someone else must have been wondering that. There are some explosives and a plunger set up next to it.
  • 2 of 9: Try using the plunger.
  • 3 of 9: Nope, that doesn't work.
  • 4 of 9: Follow the fuse line along, and you'll find the problem.
  • 5 of 9: How might you connect the broken segments back up?
  • 6 of 9: You don't have any wire, so use something else that might conduct electricity.
  • 7 of 9: There's such an item nearby, ready to be pushed and pulled into place.
  • 8 of 9: Use the metal barrel that's hiding behind breakable wooden boxes a little ways further down the corridor.
  • 9 of 9: Push it so it bridges the two fuse pieces, then hit the plunger (and watch out that you don't get hurt in the explosion).
