Chosen Solution Water entered my sharp Aquos phone, and now the screen is shaking where can I repair it? Hi, What is the model number of the phone? The impurities in the water causes corrosion and provides circuit paths for the electricity which were not in the phone’s operating design and could damage the components. The corrosion starts immediately and is ongoing until it is completely cleaned away First do not try to charge or to turn on your phone and then remove the battery as soon as possible from the phone to minimize any further damage....

Chosen Solution I don’t know my default phone so can you tell @kale, there is a possibility that the default password for your handset will be 8 zeros (00000000).

My question is, what kind of on/off switch would I use for one thin wire?...

Chosen Solution What type or brand of antifreeze is recommended for CR-V 1996 ? Tanya, recommendation is for Honda 2 antifreeze.

If in doubt, your local supply place will most certainly provide you with proper guidance.

Chosen Solution My gas gauge is broke so I keep track by my mileage and I normally get around 380 miles per tank of gas and 3 weeks ago I ran out of gas around 280miles and thought maybe it wasn’t filled up all the way so this time I topped it off and still got 310miles.

I then replaced the home button entirely, but still the problem occurs.

I found that most of the time the connecter to the main board is the problem as it does not fully click in place....

Chosen Solution I just replaced the volume button flex cable in a 6 (actually a 6 Plus). The mute switch is loose and doesn’t work properly. It seems like it needs pressure on the top edge of the inner switch to function properly. When I press my finger on the top edge of the switch it clicks and functions normally. Without pressure, the switch doesn’t click or work properly. I’ve transferred everything from the old cable....

Chosen Solution I would like to be able to open these scales to dry out the LCD display, but I can’t see how to get into the unit.

Any recommendations? Why don’t you just build one that fits your work area?...
