My wemo insight switch quit working. Wemo does not answer my emails. How to I remove the Insight switch but not delete my wemo light switch?
Restart the Wemo Insight Switch:
Sometimes a simple restart can resolve connectivity issues. Unplug the Wemo Insight Switch from the power outlet, wait for about 10 seconds, and then plug it back in. Observe if it responds after this.
Update the Wemo App:
Ensure that you have the latest version of the Wemo app installed on your phone. Outdated apps can sometimes cause communication problems with the devices.
Check Your Wi-Fi Network:
Confirm that your Wi-Fi network is functioning correctly. Since you mentioned that you've already checked your Wi-Fi, let's move on to the next steps.
Factory Reset the Wemo Insight Switch:
If the switch remains unresponsive, consider performing a factory reset. This will remove any stored settings but won't affect your other Wemo devices.
Here's how to do it:
Press and hold the small tab at the bottom of the Insight Switch for 10 seconds until the light blinks red.
Wait for the light to blink blue again, indicating that the switch is ready to be paired with the Wemo app.
Connect the switch to your 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network (not the 5 GHz network, as the switch isn't compatible with the latter).
Re-Add the Wemo Insight Switch:
After the factory reset, set up the Insight Switch again using the Wemo app. You'll need to provide a custom name and picture for it.
During the setup process, make sure to select the correct Insight Switch and not accidentally remove your Wemo light switch.
Contact Belkin Support:
If none of the above steps work, I recommend reaching out to Belkin's customer support. While email hasn't been responsive, you can try other channels such as their official support website.

My Sony model # MHC-V11 MAKES NO SOUND everything seems to operate but i cant get no sound from it
Troubleshoot this issue. Here are some steps you can follow:
Check Speaker Connections:
Ensure that the rear surround speakers are properly connected to the Audio/Video (A/V) receiver.
If applicable to your model, verify that the A/B speaker selector is set correctly. If the speakers are connected to the A speaker connection, the selector must be set to the A position.
Test Tone Operation:
Perform a test tone operation to check if the speakers are functioning correctly.
Increase the rear speaker volume or adjust the surround speaker settings to the maximum level.
Speaker Size Settings:
Try selecting a different size (small or large) for the rear surround speakers in the menu.
Surround Sound Mode:
Verify that the A/V receiver is set to a surround sound mode.
For Dolby ProLogic surround sound, ensure that the center-channel mode is set to NORMAL or WIDE.
If your source is a DVD or Blu-ray Disc player, check that surround sound is enabled in the player's menu.
The audio being received must be multi-channel.
Different Surround Sound Mode:
Try setting the A/V receiver to a different surround sound mode.
Source Content:
Verify that the source you are playing is encoded in surround sound.
Note that during periods of mainly dialog, most of the sound may come from the center speaker only, with audio coming out of the rear speakers when there is background or ambient noise.
Factory Reset:
Reset the unit back to factory default settings (consult your operating instructions for model-specific steps).
If applicable, follow the steps for calibrating the appropriate settings automatically after connecting the calibration microphone device.
Speaker Wires and Replacement:
Check and replace the speaker wires if necessary.
Consider connecting a different pair of speakers to see if the issue persists.
If you've tried these steps and the problem remains unresolved, I recommend seeking professional service.

Ensure that all speaker connections are secure and properly plugged in.
Verify that the speaker wires are not damaged or frayed.
Check the speaker settings in the system menu to ensure correct configuration.
Inspect the speaker impedance and compatibility with the system.

Flexible Circuit Board Repairing:
If the issue is related to internal components, you might need professional repair. However, if you're comfortable with electronics, consider these precautions:
Keep the soldering iron temperature around 270°C during repairs.
Avoid touching the soldering iron on the same conductor of the circuit board more than three times.
Be gentle when soldering or unsoldering to prevent damage to the conductor.
Important Notice:
To prevent fire or shock hazard, avoid exposing the unit to rain or moisture.
Do not open the cabinet; refer servicing to qualified personnel.
Avoid installing the appliance in confined spaces like bookcases or built-in cabinets.
My defy slimline cooktop shows ER42 but I changed the capacitors, what is wrong?
The ER42 error code typically indicates an issue related to insufficient power being delivered to the ceramic element.
Check Power Supply: Ensure that the cooktop is receiving adequate power. Verify that the power supply is stable and not fluctuating.
Inspect the PCB (Printed Circuit Board): Since the error points to a fault on the PCB, visually inspect the control board for any signs of damage, loose connections, or burnt components.
Capacitors: You mentioned that you've already changed the capacitors. While this is a good step, it's essential to ensure that the new capacitors are correctly installed with the same rating and polarity.
Reset the Cooktop: Turn off the power to the cooktop completely. Disconnect it from the mains for a few minutes, then reconnect it and power it back on. Sometimes, a reset can clear minor glitches.
No joy? Consider professional repair.

How do you get an LG LV720 video cassette recorder out of safe mode?
To get your LG LV720 video cassette recorder out of safe mode, you can follow these steps:
Locate the original remote control that came with your VCR.
Look for a button marked as C.LOCK or LOCK.
Press this button. This should allow you to exit the safe mode3.
If you don't have the original remote, you might face some difficulties. Some users have reported success by pressing the record button for 6 seconds on their Panasonic VCRs but it's unclear if this will work for an LG model.
My precor 100I AMT elliptical keeps resetting when you slow down. Anybody know what's causing this?
Check RPM Feedback:
The most common cause for the timer to stop after 7 seconds on a Precor elliptical is NO RPM feedback.
Start by checking the connection of the speed sensor to the lower board. If necessary, reset the connection.
Also, inspect the magnet located on the user's right crank arm (versions 1 and 2) or the user's left crank arm (version 3). The magnet passes the speed sensor with each revolution of the crank arm.
Ensure that the magnet is installed correctly, with its south pole facing the speed sensor. You can verify the magnet polarity using another magnet or a compass.
Speed Sensor Spacing:
Confirm that the spacing between the speed sensor and the magnet is within the range of 1/8" to 1/4". Adjust if necessary.
Battery and Power:
If your elliptical has a battery, check its status. A low battery could cause issues.
Consider using the optional power adapter kit to ensure consistent power supply.
Error Codes and Clearing Logs:
Check for any error codes displayed on the console.
Clear the error codes and power down the unit.
Inspect cable connections to ensure they are fully seated.
Power on the unit and monitor the error code log for any reoccurrence.
Professional Assistance:
If the issue persists, consider reaching out to professional repair services or contacting Precor support for further assistance.
DIO3T131FEUK Integrated dishwasher has power but won't switch on
Check Power Supply:
First, ensure that the dishwasher is properly plugged into an outlet. Sometimes vibrations or nearby appliances can cause it to come unplugged.
If it's plugged in, test the outlet by connecting a small appliance (like a toaster or blender) to see if it turns on. If it does, move on to the next step.
Check Circuit Breaker:
Verify if a circuit breaker has tripped. Go to your circuit breaker box and look for any tripped breakers.
If you find one, flip it to the "off" position and then back to the "on" position.
Test the dishwasher again to see if it powers on.
Child Lock or Delayed Start:
Some dishwashers have a child-lock feature that prevents accidental starts or changes to the wash cycle.
Check your owner's manual for instructions on disabling the child lock or delayed-start features.
Ensure that the dishwasher door is securely latched.
Reset the Dishwasher:
If the dishwasher has power but won't start, it might be stuck between cycles.
Allow any drain cycle to run (if applicable), wait for 60 to 90 seconds, and then press the start button once.
Unplug the dishwasher for a minute or two, then plug it back in. This can help reset the machine.
Refer to the owner's manual for any specific reset procedures.
If none of these steps resolve the issue, consider reaching out to professional repair services or the manufacturer for further assistance.
