Chosen Solution Recently, I spilled milk on the keyboard of the laptop. After letting it dry for 2 days, I turned it on, but the screen was black. Then, I cleaned the logic board with rubbing alcohol; as a result, my laptop won’t turn on nor will it charge. The next thing I tried was replacing the battery, but my laptop still won’t turn on nor charge. Only an ACMT would suggest trashing a $700 board over a simple circuit fix!...

Chosen Solution Made a mistake trying to fix my psp go and made it worse, L trigger no longer works, any way to reattach connector to logic board? aaron, the angle of the pictures is a bit distorting. It appears as if your solder pads are still in place. I would resolder the connector. You will need a good soldering iron with a small tip to accomplish that, but not impossible....

Chosen Solution Hi guys recently droped my s21 Ultra phone in salt water… phone was constantly powering on and off untill the battery died.. The battery is toast and ended up expanding, so i opened it up to replace the battery but the salt had corroded the “power on button” connector on the logic board. (it totally fell off the board when i opened it up) is it possible to repair/replace the pin connector on the logic board its self?...

Chosen Solution Can’t seem to find these for some reason. Anybody know of some? 2.5” to 3“ long What is the diameter you are looking for? PH000 and T5 are screw sizes not the threaded shaft of the screw. Are you trying to drill out a broken screw head which is down a mount tube? If thats the case you really want a left hand drill and carefully hand drill the head out....

Chosen Solution My Macbook Air is 3 years old and it stopped working overnight. I could see the battery is charging, but nothing shows up. Its not turning on. I went to apple service centre for repair, they are not able to find the issue and identified small corrossions on logic board and they are suspecting that might be the issue. I havent spilled any liquid on the machine, they said it might have happened due to moisture....

Chosen Solution (This is an update on a question I asked earlier) A neighbor has asked me to fix this 13” mid 2013 MacBook Air. It shut down in the middle of an update and will no longer boot up normally. She was updating from MacOS 10.8 Mountain Lion to MacOS 10.14 Mojave. I verified it died in the middle of an update by taking out the SSD and plugging it into another MacBook from the same year....

Chosen Solution Hi, This is my first time dealing with such issues and having no clue whatsoever. At first my Macbook turned off while watching some video and it won’t turn on even after trying all the possible troubleshooting methods out there. Even tried troubleshooting with an apple executive but din’t turn on. So, I went to the Apple service centre and they said as my Macbook was out of warranty they’ll diagnose the device which will cost be 2500 INR (25$) to which I agreed....

Chosen Solution What is the main reason an electrical board in a washing machine fail cold solder joints. A ‘Cold Joint’ is one where the solder did not melt completely. It is often characterized by a rough or lumpy surface. Cold joints are unreliable. … Repair: Cold joints can usually be repaired by simply re-heating the joint with a hot iron until the solder flows.

Chosen Solution I have started converting all my regular use tools over to iFixIt “Moody” series “made in USA” the teal handle drivers. I ordered a tri-point driver in this style to replace the current one I use in iPhones but it is not small enough. I ordered Y0 figuring Y1 would only be larger. The current one I use is made by a knock-off foreign company called “BEST” and it says 0....

Chosen Solution I have a teddy ruxpin that the eyes and mouth work but he moves his mouth to all the characters on the tape. I’m not sure if there is a fix for him. I have searched and found no one with this same problem. I have tried different tapes but it still does the same thing. If its an original 1984 teddy ruxpin, and if you are using his exact WOW tapes, it could either be that the tape is messed up/stretched, or that the servos are out of sync, due to wrong signals from the cassette deck, (like having dents in the pinch roller)....

Chosen Solution ! i jumped it, let it run for about 1/2 . it started fine 3 times ! got up the next morning to go to work and a dead battery ! If it has the original battery, you might want to consider a new one. After 12 years it doesn’t owe you anything. You can have it tested, usually for free, at many parts stores. They will put a load on it and see if it has the current capacity....

Chosen Solution So I know my calculator turns on properly by the initial text box, then it has the black bar that should blink, but once I press a button it freezes. Nothing gets it to unfreeze aside from removing the batteries (which aren’t the problem since I’ve tried new ones). Thanks in advance. Hi! Perhaps you just need to RAM reset or reinstall your OS. This ifixit guide will help you with that!...

Chosen Solution So one day I left my 2DS closed in a Garadge for probably a month now maybe. It has 0 scratches and everything looks fine. But when turned on it looks like the DS is coming inside out. Basically it has 4 white lines connecting, 3 in the bottom, one at the top, and as I said they look as if they are connecting. They have giant circles at the tips of them surrounded with a sort of rainbow thing, like a wire or something, and the lines had like a smudge look, and the rest was just black....

Chosen Solution The dishwasher is 18 years old. Washes well, no problems there. However, for several weeks now, the front panel where you press for whatever function you want to use, is not working very well, and it’s getting worse. That is the only problem we have at this time. The dishwasher has stainless steel interior, drains well, dries well, no complaints there. If the electronic panel does not work I don’t have a functioning dishwasher....

Chosen Solution I have spent some time on your site, and found similar problems I experience. My iMac screen is black to the naked eye, when plugging in a external monitor it works, and shining a flashligh on the screen reveals that my screen is still working, so my guess is the LED driver portion of the main board is faulty, is there anyway I can fix this? It sounds like the backlight went out....
