Chosen Solution Vizio tv and sound bar. everything was working until today. When I switch to streaming service, I get the picture, but the sound stays on the previous channel. Have powered off and reset, but sound will not switch to streaming services. Ray, when you “powered off,” did you completely pull the plug on power? I have strange problems like this occasionally, but have “cured” them most times by pulling the plug out of the wall, waiting for a minute or so, then re-starting....

Chosen Solution The disc on the back will not stay on Hi Traci, I assume you are not referring to the complete back cover (which is fixed with four screws) but to the smaller lid in the middle of the back cover, which is glued? Even though my Active 2 was only one year old, I had the same issue. I googled a bit and found out it is a common problem - though Samsung usually seems to deny it and claims this was caused by contact with water (funny as this watch is sold as water-resistant)....

Chosen Solution Hi, If anyone can help me with a Macbook Air (2012, 5,2) please I turn it on, no startup chime, just black screen and fans ramping up. Then somehow, after numerous restarts, and various key combinations, I managed to get into recovery and got it to instal Lion. Everything was running great. Turned it off for the day, next day, the same thing, black screen and fans at a max....

Chosen Solution My MacBook has somewhat recently suffered a chip burning and giving out a puff of magic smoke. I don’t know what this chip does or what it goes to, but I’m not sure I want to turn the computer back on after this happened. Can someone with better skills than me help me understand what this chip goes to and why it fried? @jay5113yaj Okay so your board is a 820-2327....

Chosen Solution Warm light turning on. But heater is not working ***MOHAMMED THAJUDDEEN we would need to know what make and model your popcorn maker is or at least see more of it. Since the warming light turns on it stands to reason your unit gets power. In that case I would suggest you use an Ohmmeter and measure the resistance on your heating coil to see if it has continuity or if it has failed....

Chosen Solution My sons cat chewed the cable in half. Can it be fixed or is there a replacement part I can purchase ? Thank you This will fix it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ulN-_FWe… @masonbubba that will depend on where it is split. You can remove the insulation from both sides of the cable end, then solder those ends together and apply insulation after each soldering.

Chosen Solution I recently went to the Bahamas. My camera fell off my chair and into the ocean. It was in the water for no more than 5 or 10 seconds. It turned back on and l saw the screen changing color, nothing since then. It didn’t have much sand in it but it still didn’t turn on. What’s the chances it can be repaired? Unfortunately, 5 to 10 seconds of time spent in water is more than enough time to fry the motherboard....

Chosen Solution I forgot I had my phone in my pocket when I went tubing, then I was about waist deep in water for a few minutes. I realized it a few minutes after I got out, so I took the battery out. I dried it out as well as I could, but it wouldn’t turn on. I left the battery out for about 2 hours. I put it back together and left it alone....

Chosen Solution My toddler stuck LEGO in the card reader slot, damaged the contacts beyond repair. I have been searching for a new switch lite card reader to no avail- wondering if the one from the original switch will work. No - it’s a different sized part

Chosen Solution I have a Honda 93 model VT 1100 shadow. My clutches went out so I decided to change them. I did so and now I can’t get it to shift into gear. It would make sense to most when you did the repairs you missed something or didn’t align something correctly. Or you forgot the shift pin to move the clutches. My suggestion is to check your work over and if you had any parts left over you may have to tear it back apart and figure out what you missed....

Chosen Solution Title says it all. Was wondering if I can solder it back on, or there is a trace I have to glue down. Or if neither will work Update (03/16/2018) @snakes202 you need to solder this back on. The pins in the North and South direction on your board (picture one) need that connected to carry the signal If on pcb pads is still in place then flux it and drag solder it or shield the plastic part up and with hot air rework station....

Chosen Solution Sometimes when I take my watch off the charger and go to unlock it, the display looks distorted in the way that it turns green and its also pink sometimes. I think it may be a loose connection but I dont want to open it up and i would prefer to fix it on my own rather than at apple. I want to narrow down the issue before I open it up....

Chosen Solution Hi there! I have a question regarding the Galaxy A5 2016 (SM-A510F) We fix these devices on a regular basis for a company that uses a few hundred of these. Lately we have been encountering alot of problems with devices being drained really fast, even after a new (full original) battery swap aswell as a full factory reset. I have to say, what i do notice is that often, these drain devices are also having WiFi issues (not being able to get WiFi to turn on, it either does not turn on at all or just keeps scanning)...

Chosen Solution Hi All, Looking to repair my Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1. It’s stuck on the boot loop issue. I have tried everything: Hard/Soft reset, connecting to the comp, booting into recovery mode, remove battery, nothing works. I tried to flash the BIOS as recommended online, although my comp doesn’t find the device when connected via USB. I also tired to boot it into recovery mode to wipe the device, but i only get the option to boot into ODIN mode....
