Repairing a PowerA Enhanced Wireless Controller - Zelda Edition

I found this at a 2022 garage sale and was disappointed to see upon testing it out the right bumper and trigger buttons didn't work. After further research it seems like these controllers have their fair share of problems. Maybe this video can help you disassemble yours if you need to! Thank you for all of the support.

Cleaning Battery Corrosion on a Dead TI-83 Plus Graphing Calculator

Corrosion in the battery compartment of these graphing calculators is super common due to their typical use patterns - need it for a one-semester class and then it gets tossed in your desk drawer with the batteries still in it. Not a problem, alkaline battery corrosion is really easy to eliminate! Thanks so much for all of the views, likes and subscribes! I never would have guessed this channel...

Repairing an HP PhotoSmart 6525 Printer Not Printing Black Ink
Просмотров 88 тыс.3 года назад
I will continue to run some more tests with this and see if it can get back to tip-top shape! It may need a hotter liquid mixture to really get flowing again. I hope this helps you, particularly if you need to take apart your printer to get to the printhead. I have also seen that new printheads are available on eBay for ~$25. EDIT: 9/16/21 - I ended up selling this printer for $35 $21 shipping!...

    alteclansingsupport.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/IMW478-Quick-Start-Guide.pdf Pairing a Single speaker with Bluetooth Device Pairing your first device When you turn on for the first time, it automatically goes into pairing mode and flash its Bluetooth LED while searching for a Bluetooth source device to pair with. Pairing additional devices Press power button and volume down button - Both Buttons at same time. Mini LifeJacket 3 will enter pairing mode, and flashes its Bluetooth LED while searching for another device. Once the device is paired with, Mini LifeJacket 3 sound to confirm pairing and the Bluetooth LED will remain solid Blue 7.You can also use the included 3.5mm Auxiliary Cable to connect audio devices through AUX In port on your speaker. When the LED light appears to be purple in color that is because both the blue LED (indicates bluetooth connected or flashing ready to pair) and red (indicates charging) LED are both lit and those two colors combine together to make purple!

    I have the life jacket 3 from 2015. Mine is not charging anymore, but it does power on and work. I haven’t checked to see if the port has dirt built up inside, but I did begin breaking it down to check the wires. I see in recent comments pairing suggestions were made. Holding down both volume buttons is how you reset the pairing.

    One thing I would advise when swapping out the Molex connector is to very careful not to accidentally short the the 2 wires together, I personally would either swap one wire at a time, or throw some tape on one of them while both are out of the Molex connector, shorting a lithium Ion battery does NOT end well.

    It looks like it was in pairing mode, judging by the flashing LED. I have a Super Lifejacket which I'm planning to look into. It works, but the I believe that the battery might be on its way out, since when I charge it, the red LED never goes out. There is a button combination, (I can't remember it), but when they are both pressed at the same time with the unit on, it tells you the battery charge status. As for the battery itself, it looks like a battery that can be purchased at any Vape Shop, except you would need to tack weld leads onto it.

    • @Rangerman9404
      @Rangerman9404 Год назад

      Sounds like it's going into pairing mode, Altec Lansing controls are a bit finicky. Try tapping the buttons in short bursts, rather than holding them down, like you would to adjust the volume on most Bluetooth speakers. On my Super Lifejacket, there is a dedicated "pairing" button, which its smaller siblings seem to lack, but even on that, if you hold the volume up button down, it will skip to the next track. I did notice playing around with my other speaker, that it seems that you enter pairing mode, (normally) by pressing the plus and minus at the same time, I wonder if somehow when you press one button, the other goes too, and enables pairing when you don't want it to.
