The internal fuse is probably blown. Contact Lionel at Lionel.com for instructions on how to get a replacement.

My signal keeps going especially wen im inside also my 3g is almost never there

I have the same problem. I live in a trailer park. When i am in a trailer (mobile home) most of which are covered in metal... my signal fades to nothing unless i am near a window. I have the same problem in masonry block buildings like where i live in the maintenance building. Those signals work better when tall buildings are nearby for the signals to bounce off of.

Help Audiovox Onyx

Its because of the tall buildings and all the power around you breaking the signals.

When i turn on gps message reads no gps signal if you continue search results may not be based on your current position. ok or cancel

Your GPS MUST have line of sight to the satellites.
Are you in the garage or is it a very cloudy day.
Also tall buildings can block some sat view the GPS must have at least 3-4 to work most link to 7-9 all the time. GPS do not work well in metro areas too many tall buildings.

No turn signals on 1996 Chrysler town & country but 4 way flashers work?

The turn signal flasher is worn out. The turn signals have their own flasher. It is usually on the drivers side of the vehicle under the dashboard. It is normally a cylinder about 1 inch in diameter and 1inch tall that has two prongs on it. My advice would be to go to the parts store and get a new turn signal flasher for your car. Look for something under the dash that looks like it and exchange them.

HI! I BOUGHT NEW CONDO WITH ADEMCO SECURITY SYSTEM MODEL 6128RF. I DON'T KNOW THE CODE TO ACTIVATE IT.IS ANY WAY TO FIND THE CODE? THANK YOU!

Yes but, what you have described is a basic keypad that can receive signals from wireless components of your system. What you need to find is 1) the transformer for the system ( usually tan about 2.5" square) and the main control box 15"tall by 12" wide (inside will be the back up battery) You will need an owners manual and a installation/programming manual for your system. The manuals are available online or post your info here. The door of the main control will have sticker saying which model you have. Now you should be able to follow the directions and be up and running in less than an hour if everything is working properly. If not, you may have a variety of batteries to replace.

I recently bought a Garmin 200W Widescreen satnav. I have tried and found a satelite but each time when I take back indoors I loose it, is there anyway to lock the signal in after acquiring.

Hello snippey,

Global Positioning System satellites transmit radio signals which are received by your GPS receiver unit. Your GPS receiver uses these signals to calculate its current location, speed and altitude.

The GPS is not able to perform these calculations unless it is actually able to receive the radio signals from the satellites. Radio signals can be blocked by obstructions such as tall buildings, heavy foliage, tall hills and mountains, etc. Anything that prevents your GPS receiver from having a clear view of the sky will affect it's operation. This includes attempting to use the unit indoors or inside of a vehicle without an external antenna.

There is no way to "lock" the signals in. The GPS simply must be able to receive the signals and in order to do that it needs to be able to "see" the sky.

Hope this helps,
Ken

Westinghouse lcd w32701

This sounds like bad inverter board.
Every time LCD goes from Standby to ON state - Inverter Board resets it’s self for approx. ~1 sec, during which time you should see blue screen.
Problem is that board detects problem with voltage/current on one of the seven transformers and shuts down automatically...
As to the costs:
- BestBuy repair service approx.. $600.00
- Buy new Inverter Board & repair LCD your self approx. $200.00
- Another option is to repair Inverter Board, but parts are sometimes hard to get...
Now for the DON"T TRY THIS AT HOME or AT YOUR OWN RISK solution:
-The cheapest method is to bypass protection circuit, by transferring good signal from working transformer (using 10nF/250V capacitor) to detection circuit at the faulty transformer.
Then watch movies on your LCD unlit BAD transformer totally BURNS-OUT.
This will be obvious by dark stripe about 1"-2" tall across your display.
Hopefully the only damage will be to the transformer and not CCFL (light behind your LCD), but when you are faced with a choice of using it for a while longer or throwing your LCD to garbage right now... to me this choice was simple.
Good LUCK.
