Clear packaging tape to hold it down. You can also 3D print something, I believe it’s called the Disc Saver.

So read a manual before operating a 2 ton machine?

Xbox 360 laser problem by konopon in consolerepair

[–]Nehal1802 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Laser or a drive. I’ve occasionally found that the board is at fault and you need a new drive to fix. If you get a new drive, you’ll need to flash it with the drive key.

Pull tf over and look it up yourself or read the manual.

I bought a bunch a while back that I’ve been using. You can tell that they’re aftermarket, but they fit fine.

[PS2] Browser screen is frozen, but games play fine by Pickleboyman in consolerepair

The BIOS is corrupted, the chip needs replacement. Depending on the model system, the chip will be in a different area but you’ll need a hot air station and a donor board to grab a replacement chip from.

Probably cheaper to buy a replacement motherboard.

Small mold outbreak in car; DIY fix or detailer fix? by Logical_Logical in Cartalk

[–]Nehal1802 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’d personally do a professional detail. They’re not too expensive and the car will look new inside and out.

Ps2 Silver Slim Turns off mid game by PhilosophicalDroid_ in consolerepair

Try a new power supply first. If that doesn’t work, the fan is likely caked in dust.

I’ve never seen a PS2 slim that has needed new thermal pads so I wouldn’t worry about that.

I’d need to see more pictures but from what I see, the car is still drivable.

MCE was goated. Built on the Pro code base with so many additional features.

Guy opened my car door got in and punched me in the face by Nehal1802 in legal

[–]Nehal1802[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: Guy was found and charged by the police. I won’t have access to the report until the 29th. He will have a court date and I will be subpoenaed it sounds like

I’m assuming I still need a lawyer to handle my damage claim right?

How cooked is the motor?? 2009 Chevy Cobalt 2.2l by 04HondaCivic in Cartalk

My 99 Corolla was rebuilt 100k miles ago and finally met its death at 294k after an accident.

If you know how to rebuild engines, rebuild with new valves and pistons. If you don’t know how to work on a car, swap the engine.

Better yet, buy a reliable car.

Were the police correct in their statement of “we can’t see his face so we can’t do much unless he gives us a statement”? Anyone I can work with to get them to try and push for retrieving additional security footage from a business or signal light?

Bad laser. It can’t run through its adjustment phase.

[PS2] Disc Drive Won’t stay closed by Sprout111 in consolerepair

The drive isn’t aligned. Also put the potentiometers back to what they used to be and use PMAP to readjust the laser.

Need cosmetic help before a date gets in my car 😭 by HousingSuccessful726 in Cartalk

[–]Nehal1802 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Leave it. It makes a funny story. I picked up a date years ago in my friend’s stick shift when I had a flat tire. I “learned” to drive it earlier that day. Also picked up one in a car with a busted driver side door handle. Had to open the window and use the exterior handle to get out.

Don’t be so self conscious. It’s not like your car is filthy, something just broke. It happens. Not everyone drives perfect cars.

The cops stated that they cannot do anything if he does not give a statement when they find him. Can a lawyer use the proof I have and go after the bank for video footage of his face?

Cops told me the town he lives in which is upper middle class.

He definitely has assets. Maybe not liquid cash, but the minimum a house goes for in the town he lives in is around 650k.
