Roomba keeps lying! Debris stuck in the extractors every 2 minutes!?
Переглядів 44 тис.3 роки тому
A video that shows how to fix an issue where your Roomba 980 or similar model Roomba produces error code 2 every 2 or so minutes, which says debris is caught in the extractors, regardless of being clear.
CrawlerBot (Tablet Controlled Mobility Scooter via Bluetooth)
Переглядів 2403 роки тому
Another update to the tablet controlled mobility scooter. Now called Crawler Bot. Redesigned the sharkbus controller board, no longer using the Arduino Mega 2560. Swapped it out with an Arduino Pro mini and will purely be used for managing the sharkbus communications. Will eventually also interface with an external controller, likely ARM based. Likely to use some sort of lidar detection sensor....

Variable Speed Air Pump/Compressor Built Out Of An Engine
Переглядів 1,1 тис.6 років тому
Built a variable air & vacuum pump/compressor out of an old weed wacker engine, some check valves & tubing. Driving the cylinder using a 12V motor. Pulls 240W on full power, which equates to about 0.32 horsepower. The controller I built for the motor is based on an arduino pro mini. Used the compressor to blow up a latex glove in this video. It popped at the end and scared me half to death

    I fixed my monitor successfully by following your guide. You are my hero!🎉 For others who are going to repair their monitor. The three bigger caps are for the IC supply rail which doesn't not pass 5v. Just use any 100uf cap to replace them. While the small cap is for LDO's input, where the voltage could be 5-12v. I am replacing them with my SMD MLCC cap and they work just fine.

    I discovered that one of the cleaning brushes has a steel cylinder that must freely rotate. This cylinder is what the yellow end presses on. If that cylinder can't rotate, then the robot is screwed. I put a pair of pliers on it, got it to rotate and eventually come right off. Sprayed lubricant in there and all is well.

    Great video! I think i would remove the power supply board for inspection/ cleaning. Is it possible to place a small heat sink on the transistor to help dissipate heat away from the board? Thats a great idea to loosen the front bezel, then remove the back cover! Thank you 🤓 for my level of repairing electronics I would tend to replace all 4 caps with matching values.

    • @ri5ux435
      @ri5ux435 Рік тому

      When you're repairing 40 of them in a row, you're not really concerned about cleaning and inspecting power supplies that are working just fine. A heatsink isn't going to do any good when there's no airflow inside of the monitor. Heat is going to build up just the same, it will just take slightly longer. Not enough time to make a difference. The solution: a fan, even a small one, but who's gonna put a fan in their monitor? Probably nobody.

    AVR270 here. It wouldn't boot anymore but would still stay in standby. I went and replaced the two caps with 470 pF 2KV ones. However now the damn thing won't even turn on the power LED. I can hear a faint buzz from the power supply when I plug it in but no other signs of life. What I did differently was removed the top PCB (containing the HDMI ports) in order to get to the far screw on the PSU but I made sure to align the pins and plug the flex cables back in.

    any idea as to why my 3700 avr 7.1? volume outputs are low when using HDMI inputs . THis just started so the sound is very low even turned up to its notmal safe operating range. after about 2 min of use with very low volume the AVR shuts down but the orange sleep mode light on front is still lit. iv tried all hdmi inputs as well as sterio and optical it does the same thing. I love my AVR any help would be great mine is a 2012 model owned since new it has been a great machine i really hope to get it working again.

    • @ri5ux435
      @ri5ux435 Рік тому

      Some power supplies can take weeks or months to self dissipate. Some just a few minutes. It's hard to say for sure. I'd use a multimeter to check them for voltage. This is typically why I just carefully remove the power supply and use a resistor to discharge the caps

    First, Good pointer on what to look for. Second, The problem with mine is the bearing itself is bad, and you will find this on third party rollers from Amazon, some are good some are horrible. Just try turning the yellow caps by hand they should literally spin completely freely with no hangups or force required. I popped the caps off and pack them with some lithium grease and they were both fully functional then. Because the Roomba is constantly monitoring the required torque to the debris extractors, it will stop at the slightest increased power requirement from the rollers.
