Q:Can overheating cause the PSU fail for good? I have a gaming rig and been playing demanding games. My PSU just failed on me this morning. I can't turn on the power or anything, it just went dead all of a sudden. I took it out and it was pretty hot on the top.I'm just wondering if this is even possible? Or is there like a fuse that melts when it gets too hot?

No, there are usually no fuses. The power supply overheats and the circuitry fries. Get another that is rated above the minimum most of your computer components are rated to work. If you have a high end, add-on video card, look at the documentation that came with it, or manufacturers website to find those specs. Look at links for power supplies.

Q:I pulled the fuse to the sir bags when i worked on it and put it back and now it will not go out ?

Option 1. Dealer Option 2. Changing its body control module. Option 3. You need to buy an ABS/Air bag Scanner for a DIYS deal. Good luck

Q:Every time I buy a little figurine or annual ornament, I am amazed at how crystal clear the glue is that holds the crystal together.Anyone know what kind of glue that is or what kind you think it might be?

As a bead artist, I don't know what they use in manufacturing their pieces, but I do know they advise the use of epoxy if you're planning on creating pieces using their components! A two-part epoxy, as they suggest, will give you an incredible bond that can withstand most anything, and it does dry clear! I hope this helps!

Q:Helo i have a 1992 ford escort and recently got a new battery because my car wasnt starting up.I had the alternator tested after i had it jumped and the alt tested fine. But when i got my new battery i parked my car for a few days later got in and it didn't turn on. wen i tied to turn it on the bell for the open door caution rang and i felt the click on my ignition switch but no reving.what could be is it a fuse?If so can it be possible to jump a car wit a bad switch?

It could be a fuse. But I'd look at the starter also. a lot of times you can jump start a car with a bad starter. Or if it's a stick shift just bump start it.

Q:i have determined there is no spark on my sons dirt bike and i have already eliminated the kill button but need to know how to check the coil,stater and CDI box to determine which one has failed.i dont want to go purchase all 3 if i can check these with a simple volt meter or test light.I know the basics of how the system works and know for sure the issue is not with the spark plug or a broken wire since i have traced down all wiring to maks sure it wasent that simple of a fix.

Assuming the chain and sprockets are in stable condition, approximately halfway between the front and rear sprocket the backside portion of the chain ought to circulate vertically between 25-40mm while status immediately without-one sitting on the bike, no rely if it is greater beneficial than that it may be adjusted till the slack is actual. If there is important lateral stream or the adjusters are on the minimize or any tooth are broken on the sprockets the two the sprockets and the chain must be replaced. The marks on the eccentric adjusters are publications in elementary terms and should no longer be depended on as completely precise. to make optimistic the two the wheels are in an analogous direction use 2 parallel planks the two area of the bike.

Q:I have a 1982 Prelude, and everytime I try to connect my battery, the 55 amp main fuse (located in the engine wall by the negative battery cable) blows. Any ideas? Did I get a battery that is too big for the car?

First is to make sure you have the cable hook up the right direction. Second you may have a short out of your main fuse box. If you capable disconnect all wire to your alternator, tape them off and reconnect you battery if the fuse not blow then replace the alternator, if it still blow then get help from a local mechanic.

Q:I believe I have a blown fuse and need to change.My dome light and power lock are not working and I believe that it's a fuse. The front cig lighter was not working but change fuse and now works. I have a 2k max gle. There are 2 fuse box in the engine dept that may also need fuse according to nissan book. The fuses seem to support several electronic but only list one component so it's difficult to tell what fuse is for power locks.Thank You

look for power socket or cigar lighter in the fuse box under the cover above the hood release on the back of that cover is a list of what each fuse does. And in your owners hand book starting on secton / page 8/21 to 8/22 tell you what to look for. Page 8/21 details the under hood fuses. Mostly red 10 amp and blue 15 amp fuses power those circuits. there are three spair fuses in the box marked spair you can use one of those until you get more. More often than not it is a bad cell phone charger in the power socket

Q:I have a 2001 ford expedition. It has been completely fine until today I started it up which it starts fine but then I noticed my windows wouldnt roll down so I was like ok but then it wouldnt come out of park at all not even when I shut it off and turned the key a little.Additional DetailsOk i figured out that the #15 5amp fuse was blown but when I replaced it, it blew again does anyone know about that?

The number 15 cavity with the 5 amp fuse is for the Generic Electronic Module (GEM) and for the Brake Pedal Position (BPP) Switch. In other words you most likely either have a bad component or a short going to the above.
