It's time to speak out for your right to repair
Dear Minnesotans,
Right now, Minnesota has a chance to pass the first Fair Repair bill in the nation.
We have a chance to guarantee our right to repair electronics—like smartphones, computers, and even farm equipment.
We have a chance to help the environment and stand up for local repair jobs—the corner mom-and-pop repair shops that keep getting squeezed out by manufacturers.
We've been working with local repair companies, non-profit refurbishers, and tech-savvy politicians to come up with a solution. And they've done just that — Minnesota is the first state to consider a Fair Repair Bill.
If you agree with us, find out who represents you in the Minnesota House of Representatives.
Tell them you support the bipartisan Fair Repair Bill, HF 1048. Tell them that you believe repair
should be fair, affordable, and accessible.
iPod Nano 7th Generation Teardown
Tried to replace a broken digitizer and ended up breaking the LCD. These instructions don't make clear in Step #6 how deep you need to get the opening tool in order to pull out the ENTIRE DISPLAY ASSEMBLY. The picture indicates, quite wrongly, that you only need to get the tip of the opening tool under the glass. This will result in separating the digitizer from the screen prematurely, and then breaking the LCD screen. The reality is that you must get the tool deep under the metal base of the assembly and pry the whole thing out with much force (it's glued on both sides). Frustrating.
