Chosen Solution So a week or two ago, my TV’s LED was clicking on and off but the display wasn’t turning on, so I looked it up and tried to diagnose the problem on my own. I discovered that the TV would stop clicking when the Z-board was disconnected, so I ordered a new one with the buffer and replaced them. And the TV ended up working! However, this weekend, after being on for 10+ hours, it randomly shut off and turned back on, which is what happened before the TV started clicking....

Chosen Solution We have Kenmore Elite washing machine, model #110.44932200, which is about 20 years old. Recently it started a loud banging during the end of the spin cycle. I opened the machine to replace the shocks and the front seal, and looked at the spyder and the rear bearing. The spyder was not cracked or bent, and there was no obvious signs of rust or damage to the rear bearing....

Chosen Solution I have a 2008 Mac Pro that I’m trying to install Samsung 860EVO SSDs in. They are recognized over USB in a dock, but I’ve yet been unable to get them recognized when plugged into the SATA ports. A Toshiba spinning drive works just fine over SATA. Does anyone have any experience with this? EFI update is current. Could it be the SATA cables? Format it GUID in your dock and you should be fine....

Chosen Solution Hello I have a Macbook Pro from early 2011 and I had problems with the video, I took it to a technician to reball it and it supposedly worked, at the same time it failed again and this time they told me they had changed the video chip. In the end, it failed again and when I took it to repair it again it did not work again. I finally bought a used logic board in china and was able to successfully install it as a replacement for the deceased one....

Chosen Solution Hi, All. I ordered a Macintosh SE from eBay the other day in working condition. As I’m sure you’ve all experienced before, USPS really doesn’t care about your packages, so when I saw the USPS guy throw it off the truck I had a feeling it wasn’t going to work… and I was right. When I connect power and flip the switch, the computer makes a fairly loud hissing/whistling sound....

Chosen Solution To give some backstory on this MacBook Air had water spilled on it, the person who spilled the water had put the laptop in a tent position waited for probably an hour then tried to attach the MagSafe cable and power on repeatedly. After no success he gave up, and I offered to attempt to fix it for him. There was minor corrosion in multiple spots of both the logic and I/O board as well as the CPU heatsink thing....

Chosen Solution I upgraded my MBP’s RAM to two 4gb sticks from crucial and a Samsung SSD, after heavy use earlier in its life. It’s been working fine for about two straight months, and today when I took it out of my backpack and opened it, it gave me the three beeps. I restarted it and it seemed to work fine, but then froze and shut down twice after that point....

Chosen Solution Hi I found my old iPhone 5s and suddenly realised why I needed a new phone back then. It doesnt recognize any simcard anymore. It kept saying searching, and I messed up when I tried a factory reset, cause after I did this, the phone had to be activated again, but it won’t without a simcard. I guess my question is, is there any way to activate my iPhone 5s without a simcard inserted?...

Chosen Solution when i press botton it shows a light then off. Sounds like your ram is inserted incorrectly. You should remove it then put it back. You can do this by inscrewing the two screws from the middle panel, and the ram will be one or two cards about 3 1/2 inches long. Push off the clips on both sides of the ram, then tilt up and pull out. If it is put in incorrectly, removing may take some effort....

Chosen Solution So, recently my N3DS’s thumbpad was a bit wonky, and I opened up the system to clean it. Well, after I put it back together, it took an unusually long time to boot up, and when it did, it had a tendency to randomly freeze for a few seconds, and it couldn’t read the microSD card. So, I tried taking the card out and putting it back in… while the machine was on....
