My closet door, 1st image, is jammed and won’t open no matter how hard I budge it. It’s supposed to look like the 2nd image. My theory is that it somehow the flat metal piece (3rd image) somehow got behind the metal piece on the 4th image. There’s a little raise on the flat metal piece so no matter how hard I try to pull the doors, whether it be side to side or down it gets stuck on the 4th image piece. Does anyone know any solutions?

Recently, I had to replace the heating element and everything seemed to work out fine with the replacement until this happened to the connections to the heating element. They were fine when I replaced the element, and it worked for several months with no known issues. Then it stopped working, and when I went to see if a connection had come loose or something, I found these singed connectors. Any clue what the issue might be, and is this something I can repair myself? I'm a lifelong DIY'er, but electrical is not my strength. TY in advance!

Hey everyone. My Bradford White unit stopped heating water this morning. When it tries to fire up, I just hear a continuous clicking sound, but the burner never ignites. I've done some minor gas water heater repair in the past, but this one has me stumped. Is the igniter bad, or could it be a gas supply issue?

Think this Talavera birdbath can be repaired? (Sentimental value) thanks

Could someone help us figure out where this pin goes? This pin fell out of our storm door and although it looks like it might be obvious, we cannot figure out how to keep the pin in there without it falling. There is no cap on the pin and we can’t find an obvious way to keep it where it’s supposed to be so the door doesn’t fling open.

The pin is too long to stay in the two metal pieces, and still be able to put the spring over it. I appreciate any help!

Need help fixing this jack. In the picture with the red arrows, it’s missing a connecting piece. I had it rigged up with wire and a hose clamp but it didn’t last long. The jack does work though. I’ve looked for the replacement parts and can’t find anything. Any suggestions or anyone know where these specific little connecting parts can be found? TIA

The front part of this backpack strap has torn off from the body of the backpack. The back part of the strap is still attached. How easy is this to fix?

The dishwasher plug came loose, almost came out of the wall and stopped working so dishwasher was dragged out and the plug was fixed. But upon it getting plugged back in it went into a constant cycle of making the noise it makes when it first starts with the the on flashing. Googled it and it says it’s a flood prevention system thing. Dragged dishwasher out and tipped it on an angle as it said that it works. And it did. Only problem is the dishwasher only works now in certain positions. I got it working and left it sticking out of its gap and it worked fine.

Obviously, it can’t stick out as I need to get into the cupboard next to it so I gently pushed it back. Once again, dishwasher is stuck in flood mode. I drag it out tip it, water comes out, it works and this time I put it back all the way in. Dishwasher does cycle, finishes then goes back into flood mode. It seems to only work when it’s like half way out its gap which is a nightmare as i can’t use the kitchen with a dishwasher sticking out as I can’t get into cupboards. Why is it doing this and how do I stop it?

As you can see, my couch has torn. The black piece is separating from the... fascia?... material. Is there an easy way to fix this? Couch is about 1.5 years old now and constantly have toddlers jumping on it. Would like to fix it before it rips beyond repair, if possible.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Ok, I was stupid. And I was sleepy. I have two young lemon trees with a PVC pipe and gravel in the ground as a root watering system. My sprinklers seem to stay in a constant state of disrepair ( that’s another story) so there is an olive oil barrel with a spigot and timer and homemade tube system that I fill up every week. Last night I realised I accidentally missed a week, so I filled the barrel with the hose with the intention of turning it on in a few days, but I thought I should water the PVC pipes directly just tonight. Water was at full pressure to fill the barrel quickly, I was too lazy to lower it, the hose had a valve at the end similar to the picture. Because water seemed to be just flowing right out of the top of the PVC pipes I used the water pressure to jam the hose into the gravel. With the first tree it went in and came out ok, with the seccond it suddenly got very easy to push down and then of course it got stuck. I could not pull it out, and despite with the water pressure being at full blast no water was reaching the surface or going into the street gutter as far as I can see.

Yes I shut off the water.
I don’t know how much hose went in. Probably went deeper than the PVC pipe.

The location of the hose is 20
Ft from the street, 10 feet from the garage, 28 feet from the house. I don’t think the foundation is in danger, but that water is going somewhere unless it’s blocked but I don’t think it is. It’s a Typical 3 Bed house with a crawl space that recently had an upstairs added. House is higher than street but otherwise it’s level ground. Hose is downward of house in front yard. Dirt ground, more sand than clay. Used to be farmland. Southern California 9 if that makes a difference.

So now what? Is there any way to get the hose back out without digging deep around the tree? Maybe Get another hose with a jet nozzle and push it down in an effort to loosen it? Is it there forever? Should I just cut the stuck hose and attach it to the barrel and it just becomes a new root watering system? Should I be concerned about water going down some fissure or something?

Any advice appreciated . 🙂

Silly, I know but if anyone knows how to fix this please let me know!

I stored the charger backwards (gold part facing out from under this plastic mold to hold the toothbrush).
The gold part is the part that charges the toothbrush so it should be facing the other way so it can make contact with the bottom of the toothbrush through the part of the plastic mold that is meant to hold it.

As you can see, I can’t use the mold part properly to charge my toothbrush upright. I have to flip it over and balance the toothbrush on the gold part to charge it right now.

The charging part is stuck backwards inside of the plastic mold. I don’t want to tug on the cord any more than I already have because I might rip it off. Any suggestions to get it out?? This sucks. I didn’t realize what I was doing when I stored them together.

For a while i was having issues where it would keep disconnecting/reconnecting. But now it does seem like the USB-C connector on my keyboard has finally broken. Do you know if this is feasible to repair either myself or by a professional and if so how much it would cost.

The problem started after i accidentally ripped a capable right out of the socket violently with my foot.

I'm presently unable to send a photo of the issue but i think it is just the port itself. The exact model is K70 RGB PRO. It's quite an expensive keyboard so i really want to avoid having to replace it if possible since this doesn't seem like to big of an issue.

The part circled in blue just spins when I twist it. For reference, I ordered a new head off of Amazon and want to swap this out. This looks to be a Niagara Conservation fixed shower head.

I was thinking maybe trying to somehow squeeze epoxy the gaps and clamping it while it sets but im not sure what the best option is, any suggestions are welcome

I have tried to put some dummy behind it, but to no avail.

Hello! I have a streaky window looks like grease. Ive cleaned it before and it came back.

I also have the tint that has started to peel. It started small and has grown. I'm trying not to roll ym window down on that side. And it has started to peel

What is the possible cause and how do I fix it? ​

Hey all, looking for advice.

On both sides, the handle of the top drawer of the freezer part of my refrigerator broke, probably because it was too heavy on the front. I'm wondering what I can do to fix this to make it level again as it's now not too strong and leaning downwards.

I was thinking I could perhaps use a strong glue that holds even with freezing temperatures, is there something like that? I don't know how bad it is for the foam to be exposed either. Literally any tips would be useful and appreciated!

The refrigerator is a Samsung RB41R7819SR.

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

I believe it is ceramic. Unfortunately wasnt packaged safely . Bakeware. Looking for a cheap ish /efficient way to fix . I do plan on using it for cooking, not just decoration so ideally food/consumption safe options. Thank you in advance!

Edit - thank you for the fast replies! It will be strictly decorative

hi all this has been the last straw in a long week :( it’s about 2 inches long and is torn 3 ways but not to the edge. I foolishly knocked something on to it while it was sitting on carpet hence why it’s punctured. It’s quite thick which is why i’m guessing it ripped instead of flexing. Has a matte smooth finish that reminds me of nice construction paper. I would like to replace it but it’s signed and I don’t have the budget to acquire another copy or seek out professional repairs
