Chosen Solution I replaced my battery with an aftermarket replacement while running Mojave OS. I went through the initial calibration - fully charging the battery for two hours and then using it until shutdown. After that I used my computer for an hour or so, shut it for the night (unplugged), and in the morning the battery was drained. I put the charger in and downloaded CoconutBattery. This divulged that my computer woke in the night and rapidly drained the battery for no apparent reason....
Chosen Solution So I have a side by side fridge and the heater to the coil recently went out. I replaced it, but now it seems to be getting too hot. The vent above it goes directly into where the ice maker stores the ice and it’s partly melting the ice, causing everything in the fridge to be frosted. Anyone know what the deal is? Hi @tea9000 , There is a defrost thermostat / part #240 that you can check....

I even tried to use fan control applications which sees the speed its running at but can’t turn it down....

Chosen Solution Hi All, Recently purchased an s22 ultra on retail mode. Found the password from a forum user on here. Retail mode removed but still no option to factory reset it via settings or bootloader menu. In bootloader menu no option to wipe device at all. Alot of people on this forum say demo phones have no antenna etc. This unit has 2 imeis and network calls/mobile data etc work fine....
Chosen Solution My s4 normally reads my SIM card no problems, until about a month ago, when it started intermittently losing access to the SIM card, blocking it from the network and preventing calls. Sometimes a reboot would make it work again for a bit. I tried a few other SIM cards with the same results. The strange thing is I find if I remove the phones back plastic chassis exposing the main board the phone reads my SIM card no problem, and will work continuously until I put the back chassis back on....
Chosen Solution Hello. I just recieved a Galaxy S8 active with diagnosed battery swelling. This repair should’ve been a breeze, but when I put in a new battery the phone powered on but became very hot very quickly. Specifically, the two shielded components on the motherboard on the left side of the battery. Everything else was at a normal temperature except for those two components. The battery is OEM and brand new....

After assembling whole phone screen don’t work, no image. Thanks for help Did you disconnect the battery before you unhook the cables for the screen and before you reconnected them. It can damage the back light circuit. See if you can see an image in a darkened room with a flash light angled on the screen....
Chosen Solution I love my 24" LED Cinema Display and it has been working great until a couple of months ago. I started noticed that it didn’t turn on after sleep but I finally found that it started working again if I dimmed the screen a notch. That problem sort of increased and now it’s only working when it’s set to the minimum brightness. If I increase the brightness it starts to flicker and then after a couple of seconds it goes black....
Chosen Solution I recently moved and during the moving process something happened to my tv. After finally getting it set up, I turned it on and noticed several lines and what looked to be a crack on the right side of the screen. When I touched the screen to see if it was cracked it wasn’t. Can I fix this myself? @datch214 definitely a cracked LCD. Yes you could repair this yourself if you can find a new LCD....
Chosen Solution Hello! I just did a full replacement on my iPhone 5s changing wifi antenna back housing, battery, and screen! Got it all back together! But now it’s only showing the ‘needs charging’ and ‘charging symbols it won’t boot up, I tried plugging it in without a battery attached and it just bootloops showing the Apple symbol. Is this easily fixable or anything? Maybe I did something wrong lol...
Chosen Solution Does anybody know how to solder a 01005 smd part by hand Louis de Looze, 01005 is the metric package 0402 which is a component the size 0.4 x 0.2mm. To solder that, you will most certainly need a big magnifying source and great soldering skills. I recommend to let somebody do it that has experience in microsoldering (using a microscope while soldering) Take a look at this possibility....
Chosen Solution Turn the computer on (normal boot), login, wait a couple of minutes, and the computer spontaneously shuts off. CPU thermal protection at work, right? Right. Reboot the computer into safe mode with networking. Same thing happens as above, only it takes ~10 minutes for the computer to shut off. Take off the base and push the fan with my finger. It moves easily. Just to be sure, blow some air through the fan to the rear vents....
Chosen Solution Hi there everyone! So, I’m having some troubles with this iPhone 6 Plus.. I bought the phone with a broken screen. Tested it, everything was working properly - including the screen - and there were no other problems, except a not working lower mic (Voice Recorder, WhatsApp voice messages, etc - no sound recorded). Therefore, and with the screen, I also bought a Lightning Connector and Headphone Jack Cable Replacement....
Chosen Solution I have what I thought was a compatible HD-a WD Scorpio Blue 120 GB and I’ve sucessfully disemboweled my Pismo powerbook (the old HD is an IBM travelstar 12GB). But the connector pins look really different on the new HD. Have I got the wrong thing? have I not removed something? The wide flat cable connecting the hard drive to the logic board is what I’m talking about. Thanks...
Chosen Solution the question says it all, I have a 1300 mAh battery, is it ok to put it into an ipod that had a 700 mAh battery in it? Yes it is. It should not give you any trouble, as long as the dimensions are the same. Just watch when you are charging it, it may take longer.
Chosen Solution Hi Everyone! I’ve opened my iMac to replace a bad HD but I left my LCD slipped from my hand damaging the V-Sync cable and the Flat cable. Now, my screen is black, I can see the desktop all over the LCD with an flashlight and I can use the iMac with a external display. Checking the connectors, the V-sync just ripped the ground connector (both sides with weld) from PBC....
Chosen Solution Codec121c david, if it is a Chrysler product, then the The C121C is “TORQUE REQUEST SIGNAL DENIED”. This can be a problem in the PCM or the Anti-Lock Brake Module. You will need a scan tool to determine which is at fault.
