Hi, Here’s a link to the hardware maintenance manual for the laptop. Scroll to p.77 to view the necessary steps and then the procedure to remove the top case assembly and microphone module The touchpad is part of the top case assembly. If it is determined that the touchpad is faulty on p.114 there are two part numbers (part #3) for the top case assembly. You may have to check which part number is relevant to your particular model variant. Hopefully it may be stamped under the top cover somewhere. Once you have worked out the correct part number, if you search online using the part number only in the search term of your browser, you will get results for suppliers. I didn’t check if it is possible to just get a replacement touchpad without the top cover assembly or not. You may wish to follow it up. Hopefully this is of some help

Hi @maystonto , Are you using this method? To clarify it a bit, when the LG logo appears release the Power button (while still holding Volume down), then press and hold the Power button again until the reset screen appears. When it appears release both buttons Note: don’t let go of the Volume Down at all until the reset screen appears, only let go of the Power button

Hi @dnllguajardo , Is the engine actually overheating or is the temp gauge just showing that it is too hot? Maybe the coolant temp sensor is faulty or the fans aren't operating. Here's a link to the Engine Cooling section of the repair manual for a 2008 Silverado (amongst other models in the same manual). Hopefully it is close enough to be of some help.

Hi, The LCD screen is faulty and needs to be replaced. Here’s a link to a video that shows the dis-assembly of the phone so that access to the screen is possible. Here’s a link to some suppliers of the part. It is only shown to give an idea of the cost of the part. There may be other suppliers that suit you better. Just search for ZTE Axon 7 LCD screen part to get results. If doing the repair yourself is too daunting, contact a reputable, professional mobile phone repair service and ask for a quote to repair the phone. You will already know the cost of the part. Also if you haven’t done so, backup the phone to the cloud or a PC, using the phone’s backup feature, while you still can, before the screen gets any worse. At least this way you will have saved all your personal data etc in case anything goes wrong (hopefully not) with the repair.

Hi @coils , What is the model number of the fridge? Things that could be wrong depending on model, not in any order: Defrost heater open circuit. _ not operating during the defrost cycle to help melt the ice formed on the evaporator unit (located in freezer compartment), allowing ice to build up. During defrost cycle the compressor and evaporator fan is stopped (occurs every 6 -12 hours depending on manufacturer) and the temperature in the freezer is allowed to rise to nearly 32 F (0 C) to melt the ice formed. The heater is switched on to speed up the process as you don’t want the food to even begin to thaw. The defrost cycle lasts about 20-30 minutes Drain tube blocked - this tube leads from the freezer compartment to the evaporator pan below the fridge and drains the meltwater from the defrosting evaporator unit during the defrost cycle. If the drain is blocked water can’t drain and ice builds up. Defrost thermostat faulty - this controls the temperature during the defrost cycle by operating when the...

Hi @tj1997, Try connecting another signal source e.g. DVD player and check if the TV operates OK or not. If it still has problems then check the manufacturer’s warranty statement (should have come with the TV or is in the user manual) about how to make a claim for a manufacturer’s warranty repair or replacement. If it is OK when using a different signal source try using a different cable between the cable box and the TV or a different input (if using HDMI) to see if it is the cable box that is the cause of the problem. If the cable box is connected to a HDMI input on the TV if possible try connecting it to a Component input (red/blue/green +red/white) or Composite input (yellow + red/white) if the box has these types of outputs and the TV has the types of inputs. The reason for this is as your TV is a new model the HDMI inputs will most probably be HDCP compliant whereas the cable box HDMI output may not be and this can cause problems, but I may be wrong about this ;-) If the cable box is suspect what is...

Hi, Thank you for the updated information, it helped a lot It seems as though this may be a firmware related issue, but looking at the information I’m not sure how you would check if you had an affected model since the TV doesn’t fully turn on. Also not sure if it is for your exact model as a serial number is referenced which differs from the Model Ref. information you supplied. Check your TV serial number perhaps if there is one. If you have the correct “affected” model then updating only requires a USB stick to be loaded with the firmware and then plugged into the TV’s USB port and the TV powered on and switched on, after that it is automatically updated. The caveat is that you have to have the correct firmware for the TV. If the firmware is NOT for your exact model TV (and serial number sequence it seems) you will end up with a “bricked” TV if you update it using the firmware i.e. it will not work at all You could always contact them by using the email contact link that is just above the information and...

Hi @jspradlin88, Couple of things that you can try to resolve the problem. Wipe the cache partition - you don’t state the model of your Alcatel phone so hopefully it is the same procedure. Check if the phone operates normally after this. Start the phone in safe mode and check if the phone operates normally. If it does then a downloaded app is the cause of the problem. The trick is to find out which one is the culprit. You will have to uninstall each downloaded app, one by one and test the phone in normal mode between each uninstall to see if it works OK or not. When it does work OK the last downloaded app that was uninstalled was the problem. Start with the downloaded apps that were installed or updated around about the time that the problem started.

Hi @joe999 , It was interesting trying to figure out the only user manual that I could find for the oven. ;-) I can only think that there is a problem with the program control unit, that even though you are entering the correct settings they are not working correctly. A lot of electronic program controls have embedded software that depending on what has been inputted determines what needs to be operated etc as controlled by the program. Something may have gone wrong inside the unit. This is only a guess but otherwise the oven is straightforward. The oven components all work because there is no problem with the other programs so all that is left is what controls the programs. Sorry I can’t think of anything else that would affect what is happening. Update (01/28/2020): Hi @joe999 , It was the program control unit as shown in the user manual Here’s an image of what I thought I was talking about. (click on image to enlarge for better viewing). My understanding, maybe incorrectly as I was using Google...

Hi, Don’t know what “….several remedy suggestions….” you tried but here are some that may help to prove whether it is a software problem or a hardware problem. Try starting the tablet in safe mode and check the screen. If it continues to operate in colour then a downloaded app is the cause of the problem. The trick is to find out which one is the culprit. You will have to uninstall each downloaded app, one by one, and test the tablet in normal mode between each uninstall until it operates correctly. The last downloaded app that was uninstalled was the cause of the problem. If it still fails to operate correctly in safe mode try wiping the cache partition and check if that resolves the problem. If it still fails to operate correctly after wiping the cache partition, try factory restoring the tablet. Be aware that a factory restore (aka hard reset) will erase all your data and downloaded apps. It will restore the tablet to its’ factory default condition (or last system updated condition), so backup the...

Hi @captainsnowball ,

FYI

voilà French exclamation - meaning “There it is!” or “There you are!”

The “red thing” in Step 3 is most probably an IR filter, to filter out visible light to improve IR operation

Hi, As yet I haven't figured out how to amend the link to the User Guide for this radio. The one in the Repair Guide no longer exists, so here is one that still works
