All things have an expiration date, and things can break when they run out. It is a shame, of course, if the equipment breaks down before time. It’s understandable to throw away something that looks good, even though it no longer works, it’s a shame to throw it away. Household appliances, plumbing, locks – the things that break most often in the house. This can happen for a variety of reasons, from poor quality parts to dust or moisture.
How to repair the remote control (remote control)
The most common problem that occurs with a remote control is when the keys do not respond to pressing. It is best to start with the elementary – replace the batteries in the remote control. Note the “+” and “-“. Are the batteries right?? If you put the batteries, but the remote control still does not work, then you will have to disassemble it.
Your task is to disassemble the remote into two parts: one part with buttons, the other – the electronic board. Remember how you dismantled the remote control, what screws you unscrewed, you still have to build it back. Body parts and rubber buttons can be washed under running water. The cause of their poor performance may be accumulated inside the dust and dirt. The main thing is that the water did not get on the part where the contacts are. Moisten a little cloth with alcohol and wipe the side with the contact elements.
When all parts of the disassembled remote control are dry, reassemble everything as it was before the repair of the device and check its operation. After such operations, in theory, everything should work.
How to repair the charger?
The problem is that the charger does not supply power to your cell phone or other equipment. In this case, the problem arose with the contact wires, which during operation have repeatedly bent and unbent.
Look carefully at the wire, you may notice a bend or damage to the insulation. Usually this happens in the place where the wires enter the body of the charger or connector of the phone or camera.
To repair the charger, it will have to be disassembled, you will also need to remove the damaged places the wires and re-solder.
The lid can be glued or screwed on. If it is screwed on, it is not difficult to disassemble the charger. The option of mounting on the glue will be more complicated. To disassemble such a charger, you need to tap the seam with a small heavy object, and then using some flat metal object to disassemble the cover into two parts.
A replacement for an old remote or charger may be the purchase of a new one. But it’s hard to find a brand-name equivalent. And poor quality charging can even lead to failure of the charged cell phone and camera. In any case, trying to repair a broken charger, you do not lose anything. You can always go to the store and buy a new one, but you should try other options before doing so. After all, the reason for the breakage of the remote control from the TV can be elementary – the presence of dust.
