Troubleshooting a Failed Speaker Channel

Image
  Troubleshooting Speaker Channel Issues Check to see if the speaker channel is inoperative with all sources. If one speaker channel won't play no matter the input, you can more confidently narrow the problem source to a speaker issue (you can skip to step three, but return here if no solution has been found). For example, if the problem exists only with DVDs and not any other source, such as a radio or CD player, then it's possible that either the DVD player or the cable connecting it to the receiver or amplifier  is bad. Replace that cable with a new  cable (or one that you have confirmed is in working order before testing using it to see if it resolves the problem) Remember to check that the balance control is centered and the volume is high enough to be heard. If the problem persists, move on to step two. Make sure the hardware isn't defective. Electronics can malfunction or die out at any time, often with little or no warning. If repl...

Troubleshooting a Dropped Camera

Image
  Have you ever suffered from a dropped camera? Fewer feelings in the world are more sickening. Most of the time, you'll associate digital cameras with happy feelings and good times. After all, when you're using your digital camera, it is usually at a special event or when spending time with friends and family. It might even be funny (weeks later, of course) when you realize that your comedic brother-in-law was making an obscene gesture in the background of every family photo that you snapped over a three-day holiday visit.After all, that's why Photoshop was created. But when the camera is halfway to the floor – have slipped through your fingers – it's the opposite feeling. The dread is overwhelming, and it seems like the few seconds it takes for the camera to hit the ground takes forever, yet you're helpless to prevent it. And you already know that no amount of time spent with Photoshop can fix a broken camera.   Even though you're afraid to do it, you ...

How To Repair a Headphone Cable and Replace a Jack Plug

Image
I think you'll agree, headphone cables break more often than we'd like. These tiny pieces of plastic, rubber, and copper put up with a lot of stress, especially when used in conjunction with portable media players and during daily commutes. Walking down the street, twisting and curling the cable, seeking that magic sweet-spot that brings your left speaker back into play makes for a frustrating and wasteful trip to your local electronics emporium for a replacement. Tools You'll Need Find the offending section of cable  The first thing we need to do is work out where on the cable the break has occurred. First, plug the headphones into an audio source and put on some music. Put the headphones on, bend the cable 90 degrees across the top of your thumb and run it along the length of the cable starting at the jack-plug end. The majority of breaks occur here as it is the point of highest stress (should this be the case for you, see the "Replacing the Jack Plug...
