MacBook Air 13" Mid 2012: Re-Balled RAM but we still have no boot up

Wed, 15 Apr 2026 17:59:16 -0700

We have a nice 2012 MBA (A1466) (820-3209) that had a 3 beep RAM issue.

We removed the RAM, Cleaned up, No corrosion found, Re-Balled and installed again. Now all we get is an orange / green light on the charger. It appears that all the power rails are intact with no shorts. Q is why isn't it giving us 3 beeps when RAM isn't being detected / failed RAM chip. What are we looking for to check if each RAM chip is functioning or getting power? @oldturkey03 any insight please?

We initially used this video to diagnose.

Mvwb765fw1: Washer not filling with water

Wed, 15 Apr 2026 16:11:42 -0700

My machine was throwing codes for the lid lock sensor. Just before I addressed that it threw a code for LF and I no longer had water. Fixed the issue with the lid but still no water. Checked the water inlets which were fairly plugged. Replaced this with new but still no water. Agitator and drum spin and I have the normal hum but no water.

MacBook Air: Space bar edges not registering

Wed, 15 Apr 2026 15:47:49 -0700

Not a question, but an answer to the question I've been trying to find the answer to and can't find anywhere, macbook air space bar sucks (specifically the 2022 model which is what I have) if the edges aren't registering as key presses, what I've done is bent the two guide bars downward in the middle ever so slightly so that when installed the edges of the space bar are a little higher than the middle. Hope this helps some poor soul doing the same research I just did.

Maytag Washer MVWB765W: Washer will not fill with water

Will not fill with water. No valve blockage and electric valves open and close when bench tested. Control board was tested and it too is not the problem.

My dryer keeps saying the water reservoir is full, even though it is empty. If I restart the cycle it will work for a couple of minutes and stop again. What is the sensor that is sending this message? And where is it located? TIA

So I got a PlayStation3 Slim model CECH-2004A, PAL 120, I guess; and when I press the power button, green light, it beeps three times and then red blinking light. Is it the famous Yellow Light Of Death? What can I do? (weird fact: i checked the HDD and it said it was 40GB, is it possible?)

Xiaomi Mi 11T Pro: Microphones not picking up any sound

Wed, 15 Apr 2026 13:28:50 -0700

None off the mics are picking up sound. Not during phone calls and not when recording with camera and not when using a sound record app. This is not a software issue. Can the mics be replaced? And what replacement parts do i need? Is it even worth the hassle?
