Chosen Solution I was able to remove the battery using the adhesive strips, but the bottom part of the casing protecting the battery stuck to the adhesive and peeled with it. The battery didn’t smoke or bulge or explode or emit any unusual smells. I’m curious how dangerous it is to hang on to the battery as it is in its current state until I’m able to recycle it and what safety precautions I’ll need to take… I’ve attached a picture....

Chosen Solution Hiya, I’m writing wikis for home appliance repair and keep running into recommending continuity and resistance testing to validate whether a part is still working. I’m interested in acceptable or typical values for different load and non-load elements. Load elements meaning any component that consumes power, and non-load meaning unrestricted paths for electricity. Please help me source and confirm resistance (Ω) values for: Loads: heating elements (0-50Ω)solenoids (on/off > 10Ω, and regulating < 10Ω)motors (10-200Ω)pumps (submersible 2MΩ)Fridge Compressor (1-50Ω)Dishwasher Drain Pump (15-40Ω)Circulation Pump (10-100Ω)Water Inlet Valve (500-1....

Chosen Solution My lock switch on my iPod Classic was stuck in the locked position despite me trying to switch it off. I replaced it with a new switch assembly and everything was fine for a few weeks. Today the lock symbol is back and I cannot unlock it with the switch. I restored it and the switch is still engaged. Can this be fixed or do I need to replace the entire iPod?...

Chosen Solution Aside from length (3.1 and 2.3), what is the size,- width and thread pitch - of the lower case screws for the MBP mid-2015 retina 15? I have a lightly stripped hole that I’d like to chase w a tap if I can find one that size. Daniel Stra those are M1.2 by 2.3mm and 3.1mm length respectively. Your local jeweler might just have the right Tap to chase the thread....

Chosen Solution My MacBook (aluminuim, 2008) gets very slow few weeks ago. Startup and every other actions like opening safari and others takes significantly more time than earlier (startup about 5min, safari startup almost 1min), the colored spinning circle is appearing all the time. It happened to me already a year ago, but back there MacBook was still in warranty so I put him to repair and they replaced the hdd....

Chosen Solution My MacBook Pro 2012 mid 13” will not boot up. It keeps trying, the fan runs for a sec and the indicator light turns on, but almost immediately it shuts back down. I believe I’ve found a missing ferrite bead but cannot find the part number to replace it. Does anyone have a schematic to find this part? Kaleb Williams looks like this board is a 820-3115 and the missing component is actually NOT a ferrite bead....

Chosen Solution Hello there, The screen of my MacBook Pro 15” (Mid 2015) flickers in equal time intervals (about 3-4 per second). However, when I use the trackpad to move the mouse or the keyboard to type anything the flickering stops temporarily until not moved again. The weird thing is, when I connect an external monitor to the laptop, the flickering stops completely on both the Retina and the external monitor....

Chosen Solution Have a 12 year old microwave that sometimes shuts itself off 1 second after pressing start. But then works totally fine after trying again. Is food cooked in here safe to consume? Hi @sbc4816 , If it shuts off 1 second after starting, the food has not even begun to get warm, let alone cook. As long as the food is cooked thoroughly, (ensure that you have selected the correct cooking temperature for the food, especially meat), the second time you start it, i....

Chosen Solution Hey guys! I just recently installed a Kingston SSDNow V200 128GB with the iFixit dual hard drive kit, set up a core storag logical volume in terminal. Since then the mac freezes after about 5-10min of usage. The spinning rainbow wheel pops up and I have to hard reset the mac. Does this have something to do with the data chunks which have to be moved? I already tried splitting up the drive, format and reinstall....

Chosen Solution Hi guys, I have an iPhone 7 Plus here with a broken screen. According to the customer, the phone powered on when he put it on charge. The screen was broken, so my job was to replace the screen, an easy job. I trust the customer, so I didn’t turn on the phone before going ahead with the repair. As usual, I disconnected the battery before removing the broken screen....

Chosen Solution A customer of mine is having multiple issues with their device, no water damage, but screen is cracked. When they make a call, the ear speaker works sometimes when it’s recently been rebooted, and the caller can hear them. They say it stops working after a couple minutes or more. The taptic engine also was not working, and when I opened the phone up, all three screws were loose to the taptic....

Chosen Solution Does anyone know what is “AppleAD5860”?My iPhone Xr randomly bootloop, panic log says: “panicString”: “panic(cpu 5 caller 0xfffffff019766bfc): "i2c0::_runInterruptMode Timed out waiting for interrupt; last write status 00210118 int shadow 00290100 xfer 00000000 fifo 00000002 for device ad5860" @AppleS5L8940XI2C.cpp:430 So this kernel panic refers to the inability for some components to receive communication it needs. I2C is an inter-chip communication protocol. In this case it seems as though the CPU cannot receive an interrupt from somewhere it’s expecting to send one....

Chosen Solution Hi. I literally have an iPhone 5s from !&&. It’s my sister’s. It was having issues with recognizing chargers. I replaced Tristar after trying known good housing. It fixed it…for a time. Apparently,since I god aggravated at the dock fpc connector,I pushed a bit hard. It wore it down. I used hot air and replaced it. I put a quarter on the baseband and all shields were on.(the back shield I put back on after Tristar with my soldering iron ,no hot air....

Chosen Solution I am wanting to know if bridging the blue inductor coil on an iPhone 4 has any effect on the transmission power of the phone? This component preamplifies the signal, so by rights it would decrease the signal if anything? I just don’t know the engineering design as to why this component is needed if bridging doesn’t affect the signal; as I have bridged an iPhone 4, and cannot fault the signal strength....
