    Default Saved by the Medics!

    We have a 25-year-old GE range that died. Unfortunately it's a downdraft design in an island and the replacement options are few, ridiculously expensive ($3300+ and expect a lot of labor cost for rerouting vent), and have bad reviews from owners (Adam Ragusea hates his for those who watch foodie YT channels).

    So it is a great relief that sending off the critical parts to CircuitBoardMedics.com got me a fully functional oven again (stovetop still worked while parts were away and a pellet grill is a fine backup oven). It cost about $400 but that sure beats the $4000+ alternative.

    Overall, it's a service that I can recommend if you have a circuit board crapping out. Excellent customer service beginning to end.

    I don’t recall for certain if my experience was with the same company, but 6-7 years ago I happened upon a neighborhood garage sale that had recently had lightning strikes because there were 3 TV’s marked “Free” at 3 of the sales. Well I picked up the nicest one of the 3 and had the power supply and main board repaired online for less than $200 so basically got it for 90% off at the time. These kinds of companies are great and certainly know their stuff when it comes to electronics and circuitry.
    +1 for being a resourceful person!

    Nice job. As we have come to live in an age where everything is disposable, I think we forget that many things can still be repaired.

    Throw in the inability of some, ok most of the world. To actually have the basic knowledge to fix something. Without needing a "tech" to do it for them.

    It amazes me to this day what people put out for trash pick-up that just needs a little common sense repairs. Including a nice wooden office type chair I'm sitting on right now !!!

    I recently fixed our couch that we inherited from my grandmother. It is a double recliner with electric leg support and head rest and it's pretty comfortable. It stopped working so I took apart a control panel, found some loose components and resoldered them. I have no idea what they were, don't remember how many I actually touched, and know I shocked myself on capacitors at least 5 times. Couch works again now though.

    I wish I could find someone willing to repair my TV. I have 1 LED out in the backlight, causing a dark spot. I have the parts, but Samsung glued the panel in like a smart phone, so it's extremely difficult to remove. Nobody will touch it.

    We had the circuit board go out on our 4 yr old dryer. Found a new board on eBay for $49. Manufacturer wanted $200.

    Back in 2016 the dashboard in my 2004 Suburban went out and I sent it to CircuitBoardMedics to repair. They did a great job, upgraded to green LEDs and added a transmission temp gauge. Did a great job, everything was still working fine when I sold the 'Burb in 2019.
