New Battery Not Charging Green Light Macbook Pro 13 Unibody Early 2011

That lead me to order a new replacement battery from iFixit....

No Power To The Disc Drive Everything Else Fine Unique Issue X1 Xbox One

Chosen Solution So here’s an interesting problem I’m having with my Xbox one… I had the infamous disc drive problem where it made grinding noises and had issues reading discs. I managed to deal with that, but then last weekend it wasn’t reading anything nor was it making any noises. I decided to take the box apart and work on it. After disassembling everything, I found that one of the gears on the drive simply wasn’t budging, preventing the drive from spinning the discs....

No Service When 3G Is Enabled Iphone 3Gs

Chosen Solution Dear iFixit, I am having a problem for a bit with my old 3GS: I get very poor connection when 3G is enabled.

No Signal To Talk After New Lightning Jack Install Iphone 6

Chosen Solution I installed a new Lightning and headphone jack on my iPhone 6. Everything seemed to work perfectly but now if I try to talk on the phone and have the phone to my ear I have barely any signal and no one can hear me. If I have my iPhone away from my head on speakerphone people can hear me with no problem. I think it is because the new antenna wire did not have that foam protection piece on it where it connects to the phone but I am not sure if that is the reason....

Nokia 6101 Multiple Errors Complex Situation Im Open To Discussions Nokia 6102I

Chosen Solution Hi, Just a query regarding your future use of the phone? Are there any service providers in your location still using the 2G mobile signalling band? In most places this is outdated and is not used anymore, even 3G is being phased out. If there are none, apart from trying to fix it to retrieve any data from the phone it will not be any good to use as a phone because it won’t be able to connect with any service provider as the phone only has 2G capability....

Only Microphone And Speaker Working After Front Sensor Replacement Iphone Xs

Chosen Solution Hi all. Recently my iPhone XS got stuck in a boot loop due to water exposure to the proximity sensor. I removed the problematic front sensor assembly and bought a replacement from iFixit. However, when I pug in the new sensor only the microphone and speaker seem to be working; the ambient light sensor and proximity sensor are nonfunctional. I know that Face ID will not work after a replacement, but I was under the impression a replacement part (especially from iFixit) would restore the functionality of the other front-panel sensors....

Planetary Stuttering And Stopping While Mixing Kitchenaid Professional 600

Chosen Solution I have been making bread. Recently, the planetary got stuck and the paddle was stuttering against the dough with a grinding/squealing sound. When I ran it without any dough, it ran fine. I suspect that there is some wear on a gear, but I’m not sure where to start. I would start by taking a look at the bevel gear.
