This works on most mini electronic devices like cellular phones and degital cameras etc .

it sounds crazy .

Remove the back (or Cover ) of the phone( or Camera ), battery, and SIM if your phone ( or Device ) uses one , DIRECTLY
.

Then, with a q-tip (or something similar), dab the connection points (shiny, goldish) on the battery, SIM, and phone. This should aid in drying.

Finally, place all contents in a bag of uncooked rice (separately, do not put back together just yet). it sounds crazy , but it draws the moisture out.

It normally is working after just 7-8 hours, but I would wait 12 hours or even 24 hours before attempting to use (just to be sure).

beware the water damage, despite being dry now, will void any warranties. Also, the phone's hardware is now weakened and if you drop it, the green mother board and circuitry could shatter - so be more careful.


This does work on electronic devices aside from phones as well. Simply tailor it to your device. If you do not have a SIM (Verizon phones, cameras, all others), remove only the battery. If you have an iPhone/iPod or GPS and cannot remove the battery, simply make sure it is all the way off, then put it in the rice bag. All electronic devices react the same to the rice trick.

Nespresso D150 coffee makes leaking water tank

If your Nespresso D150 coffee maker is leaking water from the bottom as soon as you attach the water tank, there might be a few possible causes for this issue. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot and address the problem:
1. **Check O-Ring Seal:** Even if the O-ring inside the water tank appears fine, it's worth inspecting it closely for any signs of wear, damage, or misalignment. If the O-ring is not creating a proper seal, it can lead to leaks.
2. **Clean and Lubricate O-Ring:** Sometimes, debris or residue can accumulate on the O-ring, preventing it from forming a tight seal. Clean the O-ring and the area where it sits in the water tank thoroughly. Applying a small amount of food-grade lubricant can help ensure a proper seal.
3. **Check for Cracks:** Examine the water tank for any cracks or damage that could be causing water to leak out. Even a small crack can lead to significant leakage.
4. **Check Water Tank Connections:** Ensure that the water tank is properly aligned and securely attached to the machine. If it's not properly seated, it can cause leaks.
5. **Inspect Machine Gaskets:** There might be gaskets or seals on the machine itself that interact with the water tank. Inspect these gaskets for wear, damage, or misalignment.
6. **Water Level Sensor:** Some coffee makers have a water level sensor that detects the water level in the tank. If the sensor is damaged or not functioning correctly, it might cause leakage. Contact Nespresso or a professional technician for assistance with sensor-related issues.
7. **Pressure Relief Valve:** Coffee makers often have pressure relief valves to regulate pressure within the system. If this valve is not functioning properly, it can cause leaks. This might require professional assessment and repair.
8. **Contact Customer Support:** If the issue persists despite troubleshooting, consider reaching out to Nespresso's customer support or a professional technician who specializes in coffee maker repairs. They can provide more specific guidance based on your machine's model and issue.
Remember that working with electrical appliances and water can be potentially hazardous. If you're unsure about any aspect of troubleshooting or repair, it's best to seek professional assistance to avoid causing further damage or compromising safety.

Can I have good compression and 0 % leak down and still have bad oil rings or a cracked block letting oil leak in the cylinders?

GREAT QUESTION.! OK now I see you have many posts and topic?
you need to have 1 post 1 top, (oil burner) do that use comment to the one post so it all stays as one.

YES ENGINES ARE AN AIR PUMP, HUGE.
EACH CYLINDER IS,
why not lead off with a real problem and all evidence first.
yes compression test can show 200PSI easy with 10:1 CR
both tests only prove the top 2 rings are good and cyl walls not scored hugely.( lead down at TDC)
no engine or maker told at all.

those other questions, about cracks
well gee , depends where the cracks are. and how bad they are.
freeze damaged water jackets? (you do know the machine chip pressure tests the block and head to find cracks not seen
and the cracks in heads can go anywhere wants. port, combustion chambers or water jacket to top if head OIL side. lifter side.

most times the leak-down test finds bad rings and is done at TDC.
so only finds cracks a TDC, unless you do tricky tests just after valves closed.

read the 100 point tests of of engine rebuild. it's huge. CHECK IT OUT FIRST.
oil consumption a question here?
oil control rings bad, or not seated or wallS with scoring
valve seals bad, are first to fail most time.
or valve stems guides so loose it beats the seals to *****.?
clogged PCV , and it burns more oil and leaks out seals.

the compression test is done , at 300RPM starter running.
warm/hot engine, not cold, all sparks out, W.O.T AND FULL BATTERY CHARGE ! factory manuals shows PSI to expect.
and is altitude dependent, (need chart ask)
AT THIS TIME THOSE PISTONS MOVE REAL FAST
AND WiLL IGNORE SOME SCORING AND CRACKS.
Due TO SWEPT SPEED ALONE.
and the test repeated with 1/2 teaspoon of oil, down spark hole if PSI jumps high rings are not seating.(for all the reasons)
SEE WHY LEAKDOWN FINDS MORE LEAKS ,IT'S SLOW

Wish I new what was the problem , at the beginning,
not told. what put you here, with no car stated, engine or size.

Had minor MVA radiator lost all fluid... No visual damage to car but engine cranks but wouldn't start instantly.... What could cause this?

If you have an alloy engine head and the engine got real hot then you may have a cracked engine head or a warped engine head. A compression test would need to be carried out by a mechanic to test and confirm if this damage has occurred.

I am not a mechanic but I have experienced having cars with cracked head, blown head gaskets and recently a cracked block in engine or worn rings (had to replaced last car as engine block damage is expensive to fix)!
Technical theory on engines follows !

If coolant is leaking into one or more cylinders of the engine via a blown head gasket or cracked head or warped head then the spark won't fire and the fuel won't ignite in the cylinder until it cranks over to a different cylinder that has no water in it. On the next engine timed cycle the water would have been forced out of the water filled cylinder and into the exhaust pipe and will come out as steam.

Screen cracked. any way i can fix it?

if you don't have an idea in electronic repair i suggest to send it in trusted tv service shop. since replacing an lcd monitor is not easy you must considered something not to be damaged too. besides you can not get the same replacement in local store.

When a firing pin won't return it's usually caused by damaged o-rings inside the gun. The most likely culprits are the o-rings around the outside of the cylinder or the rings on the drive piston. Another cause could be a cracked cylinder or bent driver. Remove the cap on top of the gun and check the condition of the o-rings, cylinder and driver. You'll have to order any parts that need to be replaced as Bostitch doesn't make a rebuild kit for this gun. Don't forget to lightly oil the o-rings with pnumatic gun oil when reassembling the gun. Most pin and finish nailers say they are oil-less but they still need a drop once in a while to keep the o-rings from being damaged.

I have no clue on how to replace water pump on a 1995 chrysler cirrus 2.5L. I have to do this myself I dont have the money for a garage.

This is found on the autozone.com website.

2.5L Engine
See Figures 3 through 7
  1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
  2. Place a large drain pan under the radiator drain plug. Drain and properly contain the engine coolant.

This procedure requires removing the engine timing belt and the auto tensioner. To help assure proper alignment at assembly, it may be helpful to set the engine at TDC on No. 1 compression stroke. This should align all timing marks on the crankshaft sprocket and both camshaft sprockets.
  1. Remove the accessory drive belts and crankshaft damper.
  2. Remove the right engine mount. This requires safely supporting the engine with a floor jack and wood block so the mount can be removed.
  3. Remove the timing belt covers.
  4. Remove the timing belt and tensioner.

  3. Install a new gasket on the water pump and fit the pump inlet opening over the water pipe. Press the assembly together to force the pipe into the water pump.
  4. Install the water pump-to-engine bolts and tighten to 20 ft. lbs. (27 Nm).
  5. Install the timing belt and timing belt tensioner. Set the timing belt tension.
  6. Install the timing belt covers. Install the right engine mount. Remove the floor jack and engine block from underneath the engine.
  7. Install the crankshaft damper.
  8. Install the accessory drive belts and set to the proper tension.
  9. Connect the negative battery cable.
  10. Fill and bleed the engine cooling system.
  11. Start the engine and verify proper operation, with no leaks
