Hello! You found your way to the Repair Wiki! A wiki where we collect everyone's findings on repairing electronic devices, so it's all in one place.

Here's what you need to know before contributing:

Structure
We've set up Repair Wiki to have this structure to organize and simplify the content published as well as to make searching for specific information easier.

Each manufacturer has multiple devices and each device as their own repair guides.

Example: Apple --> iPhone 14 --> iPhone 14 screen replacement

Manufacturer page
When creating a new manufacturer page, the title should be just the name of the company (e,g, Apple, Microsoft, Samsung, MSI).

Manufacturer page attributes are the company's founding date and the types of devices they manufacture (e.g. Phones, Laptops, Computer components).

After the page is created, follow the template that is generated automatically. Include a short description of the manufacturer at the top then list every device they made and their repair guides in lists, each list contains a single generation/type of devices.

Example: iPhone section inside the Apple page The "Additional Information" column should only contain relevant information such as repair guide compatibility with other devices or resources that don't exist on the wiki but somewhere else. Otherwise, leave empty.

Note that devices with shared repair guides can be grouped together as shown above with 3G/3GS and 4/4S.

Here's a full page example (Nvidia)

Device page
The goal of the device page is for it to be a reference for a working device to compare the non working device to. Understanding how a device functions makes diagnosing and repairing much easier!

It should ideally include (when applicable) pictures of the components/PCB, explanation on how the device works, and working state measurements of resistance, voltage, and diode mode for important components/circuits/connectors, power sequence, etc.

Think of when you wanted to repair a device and wished that you had a working one to compare it with. This page should ideally be that plus explanation on how it works.

Example for a graphics card: Pictures of both sides of the PCB, resistance and voltage measurements of the various rails on the card along with part numbers of controllers for said rails, power sequence, etc.

Repair Guide page
Here you can document a specific problem from causes, to symptoms to solutions. Choosing the right title is very important to avoid confusion and making your page appear higher in search results.
