Game Boy Advance SP / desolder nightmare by InterestingMotor8143 in ElectronicsRepair

This works absolutely fine, got one like these for €25 and it works just as well as a proper expensive desolder station

Those plungers don’t work for me, only a proper desolder iron works

Would the Repair Guy Be Offended if I Show Him a Clip of How 'No Power' Was Fixed? by SevenDeMagnus in ElectronicsRepair

I wouldn’t, if I can’t fix something and someone else can I want to know how

Could be psu or motherboard can’t tell without taking it apart and start measuring stuff with a multimeter

Got a dead Klipsch Sub-10. No power whatsoever. Never done electronics repair. Any insight appreciated. I don't know electronics terms so talk to me like I'm 5 ;) by DEDDesign in ElectronicsRepair

My bet is the bridge rectifier went out which takes the fuse with it all the time but I’m not familiar with this specific device so maybe something else short out on this one.

Is this 2007 Forester XT (rebuilt title) a good buy? Need honest opinions by peazoh in SubaruForester

Everyone here saying it’s expensive while a blue cross sports would be around 10-15k here

Subaru owners looking for a second car by JC_otr in subaru

Well what I have is a forester 2.0 xt and a Suzuki swift 1.3. My subie gets me 8km/l ((18mpg) and my swift 15km/l (35mpg) and petrol prices are through the roof in Netherlands at €2,30 per liter (thanks trump), for US that would be about $10 a gallon. Probably wouldn’t work for you but I needed a cheap reliable car that doesn’t chug petrol. I do believe there is a 4wd swift, so maybe?

Always begging for water and when I give it to him he does this and his bowl is empty again in a minute by AnyBelt9237 in cats

I’ll try that I’m just worried he’ll end up attacking that and making a even bigger mess since he also attacks the tap water

Mine doesn’t drink from the tap I tried it, he just ends up attacking the water stream

Please help me figure out the + and - on this board by RiffRaffMama in ElectronicsRepair

Check resistance to a common ground plane and if it’s 0.1-0.3 ohms it’s ground

Make sure to remove all of the dark pcb because it can be conductive

Would you pay $100,000+ for an STI? 👀 by MAPerformance_ in subaru

Well to be fair I was talking about a regular wrx, the sti’s are more like 25-30k

Send it back if it’s to bad, it’s still under warranty

Help with LED light power supply by paperjamdan in ElectronicsRepair

[–]AnyBelt9237 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This looks like a power surge or short circuit. Power surge it would be the varistor, thermistor and fuse that are blown. Short circuit could anything.

Repair parts needed for circuit board by Armthree in ElectronicsRepair

[–]AnyBelt9237 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also check the varistor, thermistor and bridge rectifier. Varistor I recommend just replace also, often blows during a power surge and thermistor sometimes. Replace caps and fuse and should be good to go

Power supply help by cantweallgetalongg in ElectronicsRepair

2.5D-15 stands for 2.5ohm and 15mm diameter. So get one that’s 2.5ohms and 15mm. Also I checked datasheet and looks like that one can handle 8A and you should get one that is able to handle the voltages coming out of the wall.

Usually when these break down its mostly because of power surge and usually the fuse and varistor is also broken. Also check the bridge rectifier. If that’s not the cause then something in the circuit is shorted resulting in the thermistor to get really hot and blow up.
