r/repair

Hello I am trying to avoid having to pay repairs because financially strapped at the moment. I initially heard this clicking and turned the breaker off on my oven since I can't access my plug without possibly pulling out the gas. I let it dry for several days turned back on still clicking let it dry for another week turn it on still clicking scrubbed it some more today at the igniter as I have read everywhere. Still clicking. I live in a very dry state so it's had plenty of time to dry up at any of the moisture so I'm not sure what to do next. It's only this burner doing the clicking and sparking. It all started in the middle of me cleaning the burners trying to use degreaser to get all the gunk up.

My kid and his girlfriend had been using it for a while and we're not very good at cleaning up after themselves. Please excuse the mess of the stove I was trying to fix it and here I am. I have a still picture in the very first comment after this because it wouldn't allow me to attach a photo with the video.

The gap is not this big normally, I pulled it apart for the pic so you can see it better…
I really hope and am desperat that I could fix this. I don’t care how it looks as long as it holds somehow!

Hi there. I’m looking to buy this portable for $150 on marketplace but the transom looks like it need repair. Would I be an easy fix? I’m good with cars and have a bunch of tools but I don’t know anything about boats. Would you ever buy this?

The hard plastic side panel on my child’s car seat headrest has cracked and separated from the foam padding underneath (see photo). You can see broken plastic pieces where it split.

What’s the best way to glue/repair this so it holds up long-term? What kind of adhesive works well on this stiff plastic (looks like ABS)? Any tips on technique — clamping, prepping the surface, etc. — to get a strong, durable bond?

Thanks in advance!

Found an old bracelet of my dad’s and am hoping to repair it. I took it to a jewelry shop but they said I had to provide the new wire.

Is there anyway to open it or dry it to get the water out? Please help me

So, I have to push the thing to the right for the right speaker to work and it’s annoying. I’ve spent 50 dollars on this pair and I need a fix. Someone please help me find a solution.

The lug that holds the bottle drawer on my Bosch fridge has snapped off. What glue would work best to glue it back in place?

As I was pulling out of the garage I hit the mirror and it folded backwards. When I try to twist it back, it’s like there’s a lock that won’t let me twist it. How do I put it back into place?

The back of my iPhone is completely shattered, as you can see in the photos. Somehow everything still works perfectly, including all three cameras, zoom and flash.

Is there actually any hope of repairing damage this bad without replacing the entire phone? Has anyone had similar damage fixed, and am I looking at a crazy expensive repair?

Please help. Really need some reassurance, I legit cannot sleep.
