I remembered purchased this old tv back in year 2007 in Nottingham. Been using this tv since then. But suddenly before end 2016, this tv has stop working. Model of this tv is LG 32LC56 32 inch tv. The problem was, I am not able to turn on this tv. no power at all. Have check the fuse on the plug, the continuity on the cable between plug to the tv also ok. so, the culprit is in the tv..no the cable or supply. One of the common problem with 'no power' problem is due to the power supply board and usually damaged fuse or broken capacitor. So, it is worth looking for this analog / supply board first before throwing it out. In order to fix, one of the important thing that need to be done is to find the problem. Troubleshooting the problem is one of the basic thing that we need to do before repair or fix the appliances. And before we are able to troubleshoot the problem, we need to diassemble the appliance cover or casing, in this case is the TV. Below is sho...

Hi all, has anyone facing the same problem as me..? Difficult to start the car..sometimes it give tack tack tack sound..sometimes, just empty sound when key is turn..it is quite annoying when you know you have new starter motor, good battery. In my case, I have changed the starter motor to new before ..but, the problem still persist..problem still there...so, I suspect..there is something else.. Asking around, I realize that there is not enough current to starter motor to crank the engine..problem are rarely happen, but quite annoying and too much for me. Figure 1: Proton LMST engine layout (Location of starter motor are just behind engine between transmission) The solution is to add relay between starter motor and key circuit to direct the current from battery to starter.. The connection are shown below. Please follow at your own risk. Cost of bosch relay with part number 0332019150 12V 30A is around RM15. Plus the connector and ...

Hi all, Since 15 year ago after own my 1st vehicle..I kept doing my vehicle service myself and usually spending the service or repair work during the weekend..I like to spend 1-2 hours time in the morning or evening to check car condition and doing the service myself if possible. Usually, in my case, I always maintained the duration for changing the engine oil (EO) within the recommended period/distance.. For example, for this proton, I used Petronas semi synthetic 10w40 engine and this type of engine oil can go up to 7500km or 1 year (though Petronas EO still good even after that 7500km )..depending on the condition of our driving..If my driving is harsh for that period..usually I will change the engine oil a bit early..say 2/3 of total recommend distance.. For my Mercedes w203, I use fully synthetic Petronas 0W40 EO which can run up to 13000km or 1 year. So, its depend on the type of EO you use and what EO manufacturer recommend Petronas 0W40 Fully Synthetic EO Down her...

hi all, Good morning, my belling cooker igniter has not working since a year ago because of tiny little creature called 'rat'  bite and damage all of my cooker wiring harness that connected to igniter. That nasty animal are gone for good already after we put rat poison at the back. But, the problem with cooker still unsolved, So I took some time to study the cooker problem, understand the wiring connection and try to find solution. Figure 1: Belling country classic 100G Figure 2: Wiring damage from mouse One of the easiest solution are to buy to new wiring harness and replace. Unfortunately, in my case I am not able to, because all part are in UK, while I am in Malaysia.  So, I need to find other way, which is replace with other suitable cable to make my cooker igniter working again. Before fixing the wiring, we need to do the disassembly of the cooker to have access under the top cover.  Provided in here step by step which hopefully help other...

has anyone face the same problem as mine?  symptom: horn, signal and brake light not working, not charging the battery, headlight and taillight working perfectly..and bright as well when engine is on. current state: just change new battery, so should be no problem with battery. but now voltage in battery drop to 7V because my CT100 not charging the battery. FYI, I have used this motorcycle to commute to my workplace, which is 82 km from my home almost everyday. So, a bit distance travel and very dangerous especially with un-working horn, brake light and signal.. so, I need to get to the bottom of it and solve it. What i did, was to remove my ct100 body casing and troubleshoot one by one. 1) first, remove the battery connection and try start the engine by using kickstarter.  Troubleshoot the problem by disconnecting the battery In my case, engine working, headlight working, tail light also working..but, no signal, horn and brake light.. ...
