Chosen Solution I’ve looked for parts and I can’t seem to find them anywhere, I see plenty of sellers selling the 5th and 6th LCD’s as they are compatible with each other. But I can’t find any for the 7th gen, this got me wondering if the 6th gen is compatible with the 7th gen. Yes, using a 5th/6th generation iPod Touch screen should work.

Chosen Solution Hey folks, I have a late 13 iMac that was originally optioned with the tiny 256gb PCIe ssd. While that is a benefit, I want to add a HHD in the stock location. Is that even possible?

In addition, you’ll need this part: OWC In-line Digital Thermal Sensor for Hard Drive Upgrade for 27" iMacs 2012 and Later as well as a SATA III (6....

Chosen Solution Hey everyone, I’ve had my mid-2015 MPB since late 2015 and use it for around eight hours daily for pretty CPU intensive audio production. However, recently the fan has been running non-stop even when I’m not using the computer, and I think it’s due to dust building up inside the computer. What’s the best way to clean it out? Is it even possible? I’m not looking to replace any parts (I don’t think), just want to give it a nice once-over to remove any dust or other crap that might be in there....

Chosen Solution Hello iFixit users, This is an incredible website, and it seems like many users have benefitted from suggestions made by others. I’m experiencing an issue from an iMac I had willingly bought as a faulty machine.

There would be intervals of time when the iMac would otherwise not boot for a few days....

Chosen Solution My phone do not respond when connected to my laptop, and the microphone do not work. I bought several parts on ebay. After test, I found none work. All parts work when charging only.

Chosen Solution Hi, I have an 8-year old Electrolux Frigidaire top freezer refrigerator, Model: NFTR18X4LWA. Recently, both the freezer and the fridge are not cold enough.

I finally found relay marked EGi,relay is good…is there a injector fuse on a 2000 Mazda LX 626 ? Any other suggestions to remedy problem would be appreciated.
