    • How to Repair Electronics

    Posted , by

    iPhone repair

    The internal battery in an iPhone is not easy to replace without special tools. Ask your phone service provider to replace the battery.

    What would life be without our electronic “gadgets”: televisions, satellite systems, DVD players, CD players, stereos, cameras, smart phones, VCRs, and, of course, computers?

    Boring!

    We depend every day on these and other electronic devices to help us work, keep us connected, and keep us entertained. Fortunately, electronics are relatively trouble-free. Yes, internal programs may crash, but the devices themselves seem to last forever. How many still-operational computers do we store in the garage because their operating system or memory are out-of-date?

    So this is what the Fix-It Club thinks you should know to maintain consumer electronics.:

    • How electronics work
    • What can go wrong
    • How to identify a problem
    • What is needed for repair
    • The steps to basic repairs
    Comfort controls manage heating and cooling systems. Sometimes the problem is solved by replacing the batteries.
