Chosen Solution Hey guys, I was hoping someone could help me figure out and/or identify the polarity of these SMD components (circled in red)? I believe they’re ceramic and the two CAPS have no polarity, but I’m not sure what the rest of these components are. Believe a couple of them may be some diodes. Any help would be appreciated. These got bumped off when I was removing the HDMI IC Chip....

Erased the harddisk and tried to install the new OS (10.10) but I got this message after entering my Apple Id: this item is temporarily unavailable.

Chosen Solution I noticed my refrigerator and freezer aren’t keeping temperature properly. The freezer will not get below 30F and the fridge is in the 50F range. The temperature actually remains pretty consistent at those levels throughout the course of the day. The fans and compressor run constantly. I replaced the defrost thermostat but the issue remains. I noticed in the process of replacing the thermostat it appears there is ice buildup on the pipes above the evaporator....

Chosen Solution Repair went fairly well until I connected the display cable and tested the screen. The phone is on and responsive to the power button, but the screen is black and, as far as I can tell, unresponsive and black. Is there a software or hardware issue? Re-did the connection and held the power button down until the screen turned on.

Update (12/08/2016) It is a good start, but I need a more detailed teardown for the processor replacement. I am decent at repairing but I do need the steps. Does anyone have those steps? Absolutely not. The 2009 has the processors and RAM on a bottom tray....

I have opened up the TV and when I unplug the main board from the power supply I see the LED light come on. Makes me believe the power board is fine.

Chosen Solution Hello, The screen of my Macbook Pro 17" (from 2007) sometimes turns totally black. This is really at random moments. Sometimes only for a second, but most of the times it lasts several hours. The backlight of the screen still works perfect, but nothing appears on the screen. Even when I restart my MacBook, the screen maintains black. Sometimes the screen start to work properly again. But it never lasts for a long period....

Chosen Solution I have small scratches mainly on the black glass of my SE and the Apple logo. In a few years down the line when I trade it in for a new iPhone, should I get the housing replaced, if possible? And if so, can you guys do it? I have only seen parts for everything apart from the housing itself. I usually run a sturdy case 99% of the time so I don’t see more scratches or damage occurring from now on....

But occasionally when I come back to use the computer after it has been asleep, the second monitor, which is extended, seems to be frozen.

Chosen Solution I’ve had my W123 for almost 2 years and still find some things on this car confusing. And to think I’m a Master Tech for GM. Sad, I know, but I just wanted to thank all of the contributors to this thread. I’ve been able to make nearly all of my repairs and restorations through this section of ifixit. There’s still a few things I need to figure out, and will probably be asking questions, so I’d like this opportunity to give even more thanks in advance!...

Chosen Solution I know this issue has been brought up a lot but unfortunately I am still unable to find a fix for it. My MacBook was working fine yesterday then froze while I was typing on it.
