Chosen Solution Trying to flush Rheems tankless gas water heater. Turned off the gas first, then unplugged it per plumber’s advice. Inlet and outlet valves all shut off. Hose connection valves on. Using a 1/6 horsepower pump. No flow of vinegar through the heater. Reversed hoses and got just a trickle. Cleaned filter, still nothing. @bpcammack take a look at these instructions and see if they are consistent with what you did or if not, if it works for you....

Chosen Solution I am trying to clear the cache on my phone. When I tap the “clear cache” button, it doesn’t do anything. How can I get this to work? This may because of one of two reasons- Your phone clears its cache without displaying a pop-up message saying that it completed the task. Some phones are like this.Some apps are programmed to not clear cached information that is necessary to receive the services you want to use....

Chosen Solution I have blown capacitor also but it was NEX AV7, will it be okay to replace it with NEE AV7 or NEL AV7? I discovered that the 3rd letter indicates a year, will this matter when it comes on replacing one of this? I only have one blown cap btw I believe you’re correct that the difference in “prefix” is just manufacture date. Otherwise these are equivalent. It’s a pretty common part on these era Macs....

Chosen Solution My laptop was running fine and had nothing happened to it. Just Turned it off one-day and it would not turn back on. Hi @malice9182, It seems as though there is no power getting from the charger to the laptop to either charge the battery or to turn it on. This could be either a faulty charger or more likely a faulty DC-In jack - Lenovo part #01FR146 (supplier example only)....

Chosen Solution Hi I came across this website but I only manage to see for iphone 12 pro but not iPhone 13 series. Will there be a battery kit soon for it? Hi Rino, This is the discussion forum for repairs, and the iFixit Store personnel do not monitor these forums for sales-related conversations. You will have much better luck getting an answer from them by emailing them at support@ifixit.com.

Chosen Solution The dial will move through the cycles, but it won’t agaitate, and will fill with water and spin only if I remove the dial and pull hard with pliers. I’m not sure of the part I need. If your Kenmore 110 Series Washing Machine refuses to spin or agitate during the wash cycle, see the Kenmore 110 Series Washing Machine Doesn’t Spin or Agitate problem page for possible causes and solutions....

Chosen Solution Hey all, so this is my brother’s iPad that we’ve been having trouble with. As a quick backstory, he dropped it a couple of days ago. Since then whenever we’ve plugged it in, the lightning bolt symbol appears and the battery bar turns green, yet the battery keeps trickling down. We’ve already tried a hard reset and confirmed it was not the cable nor the adaptor itself, and in fiddling with it, it has now run out of battery....

Chosen Solution Basically, I turned it on. I turned on the WiFi. I started a firmware update. It’s showing a black screen, with a ring in the middle. Along with a loading bar that says “installing system update". Every time the bar fills, it resets. Shows the RCA logo screen. And goes, right back to updating. I can’t click on anything. And it’s been about, 13 or so hours. Any suggestions, on what I should do?...

Chosen Solution Just bought a brand new wonderboom 2 and turned it on, the outdoor mode tree is illuminated and will not turn off when I press the button? Is this meant to be on? If not, why won’t it turn off? thanks! edit: have added picture of the illuminated outdoor mode light, the only time I can get the outdoor mode off is when the speaker is plugged in?

Chosen Solution Recently got a bike rack from a friend and the arms will not lock in the upright position. I disassembled it and it’s just not very clear how the mechanism works when the arms are raised. I am enclosing a few pictures (with the cover removed for clarity). I was unable to obtain any sort of manual or diagram from Yakima. To their credit, they have lifetime warranty for the original owner and they would simply have replaced the rack, but I am not the original owner and my friend does not have the proof of purchase info....

Chosen Solution The light that indicated it is on,is on but the screen stays black My be the picture is there. Try see it with light on the screen. If might be dim screen. These models have inverter, LCD or inverter cable issues. Good luck. Thanks.

Chosen Solution Why won’t my Nvidia Shield K1 charge. It is plugged in and not charging at all. Even when it would charge, the battery life was minimal. The most likely cause of your issue is a damaged Micro USB port. I have seen this issue from multiple different people including my own personal device. Insufficient support around the micro USB port allows for movement and subsequent damage to the port resulting in poor (if any) connection to the cable....

Chosen Solution My Samsung UN60H6350AF tv just wouldn’t turn on one day. The red light blinks 6 times then stops. There is no sound or picture. My condo does have questionable electricity with possible power surges. I tried to unplug it, hold the power button, wait for a few minutes, then power back on but nothing happened. I have unplugged all other cables from the tv. I think I’m going to need to open it up but need repair/troubleshooting guidance and tips for safety....

Chosen Solution The screen on my tablet is unresponsive and not registering any of my fingers pressing on it. How do you solve this issue? I suggest following this troubleshooting guide under the unresponsive screen section.

Chosen Solution I’m not sure that this is the same lens as mine but this is my problem: I was trying to but my camera in the bag but the zoom was all out so it wouldn’t fit. I tried to zoom out and I did but it was stuck and I had to force it a little and after forcing it it doesn’t zoom in anymore. The ring turns perfectly but it does nothing....

Chosen Solution My message icons says I have new messages but I don’t. I have deleted all my texts and tryed restarting my phone. I went into the app manager cleared the data and cache and that did not fix it. I can not figure it out please help it is driving me nuts. Check the messages inside of SIM card. there should be unread message. Look in your archives for texts....

Chosen Solution I successfully replaced the digitizer and tried two new antennae with no success. I have researched solutions and tried them all, still with no success. Everything else works beautifully on the ipad. Just no wifi or bluetooth. Is my next step to look for and install a new logic board or is that overkill? Is there a wifi part that could be replaced aside from the wifi antenna? Any suggestions would be appreciated....

Chosen Solution Hi everyone, I’m not sure if anyone has encountered their MacBooks just stop working. My 2016 15” MBP went to sleep and never woke up, it lives on my desk I was doing some photo editing went out for a bit and when I came back and tried to wake it up and there’s no response. I tried every keyboard combination to try and power it on and I tried listening if there is fan spin when I tried to connect the power cable but there’s also no fan spin, I’ve also changed cables and my power brick and still no boot....

Chosen Solution I have a used first generation iPhone SE with 64gig of storage. a few weeks ago battery drained quickly after a charge. It then got difficult to charge. Would only charge with Apple charger. Now, it will not charge. Starts with discharged battery icon and plug into a power supply icon. (1) Should the iphone run with a discharged battery and the phone plugged into power? (2) Is this a sign that I need to replace the battery?...
