    CRT TV/VCR Combo RCA T13008BK Bad video

    I have a TV/VCR combo that has a really bad video problem. As you can see in the pics below, the picture is very snowy and scrambled. I connected my iPad to the video output and the video was good. The screen is snowy and turns blue(no signal) then snowy picture again. The audio is also distorted at times. Is this thing worth working on or not. Is it just a dirty head on the VCR or something more?

          lol, thats what I'm thinking? Is it worth having to risk my life to discharge a CRT so I can get access and remove the chassis holding the VCR. I get old crap old people bring me and I am too nice to say no thanks.

              Well the only reason I can think of saving a CRT would be for retro gaming? The older gaming consoles just don't cut it on the newer TV's of today. I have an old CRT id like to fix one day just purely for this reason tho the CRT I kept was "apparently" "The Dux nuts" back in the day so possibly worth saving for that reason too mayb?

                  it probably has a few bad caps - high voltage ones like 10uf 250v
                  i would also put money on it having some broken solder joints.

                      This is from my son’s gaming computer that at first had minor overheating issues when playing a very intense game with it causing the computer to crash or reboot

                      Then bough a new motherboard and a new computer case that a cooling system in it already installed also brought the cooling system for this video card but now the issue with it is that it randomly rebooted screen goes blank randomly and suddenly video freezing or started with video being there then blank screen and then the video comes back or it just stays blank for a while and then maybe it will come back but it...

                      On this motherboard with a CPU (requiring discrete graphics) supported by the BIOS (version F3) and a new video card, it has a beep code indicating a CPU failure while the onboard diagnostic LEDs indicate a video system failure and using a different motherboard of the same model had the same result despite confiriming that the new video card along with the power supply as well as the connected display/cable was operational in another system.
                      So therefore, I've found that the Video diagnostic LED illuminated before CPU diagnostics were performed and since the CPU has failed, video diagnostics...

                      Apple iPad Pro 3rd Generation 12.9" (A1876) No Power/Charge When Screen Is Connected
                      by grimacelord
                      Hello.

                      Working on an Apple iPad Pro 3rd Generation 12.9" that has a weird issue. When the display is NOT connected, the iPad will charge and power on normally. I know it's on because I can hear notification sounds and the charging notification sound.

                      If I connect a brand new display to the logic board, the iPad will not turn on at all. When I connect the iPad to an 18W wall charger and a USB-C ammeter, I can see that the iPad is attempting to charge, but constantly "resets" after just a moment or two.

                      For example, when I connect the iPad to...

                      iPad Air A1475 Boot loops after replacing battery
                      by trepachka
                      This iPad was working fine except the battery was not holding charge for more than 40 minutes. I replaced it with a new battery. I haven't glued the battery yet, just inserted it into the slot and held it with battery screw.

                      The iPad was powered on with the new battery and I am getting white screen with Apple logo for about 10 seconds, then the screen turns dark. It then cycles like this forever.

                      I know the battery is working because the iPad continues to boot loop without the charger until it depletes to 0% and the message displays I need to plug in the charger.
