Dans cette page, nous répertorions certains des sites Web que nous, membres de la communauté Restart, avons trouvés les plus utiles pour nous aider à effectuer une réparation. (Pour commencer, toutes les ressources énumérer ici sont en anglais. [Talk:Resources|Faites-nous savoir] si vous trouvez de bons sites francophones équivalents.)

Général

  • The Art of Trouble Shooting combine la théorie et la pratique, vous permettra d'obtenir un aperçu des principes qui sous-tendent le diagnostic et la réparation de toutes les machines.
  • Awesome software running on old hardware est une liste collaborative en ligne de projets qui tentent de compiler ou d'installer des logiciels « récents » sur du matériel ancien, prolongeant ainsi la durée de vie de ces produits.
  • Battery Universityest un site Web éducatif gratuit qui offre des informations théoriques et pratiques sur les batteries aux ingénieurs, aux éducateurs, aux médias, aux étudiants et aux utilisateurs de batteries, y compris des conseils sur l'optimisation de la durée de vie des batteries rechargeables et sur leur chargement et leur utilisation en toute sécurité.
  • Electroboom! rend la sécurité amusante. N'essayez certainement PAS cela à la maison!
  • BigCliveDotCom a une chaîne YouTube dans laquelle il démonte et explique le fonctionnement de nombreux appareils électriques et électroniques différents.
  • EEVblog est une autre chaîne YouTube très instructive, peut-être un peu plus technique, discutant souvent de dispositifs inhabituels.
  • Ressusciter les morts : une personne ordinaire peut-elle réparer un disque dur ? est un article très intéressant, démystifiant certains des mythes sur la réparation des disques durs. Vérifiez également les flux de commentaires sur cet sur l'article de Slashdot. (Remarque : les disques durs sont scellés contre la poussière pour une bonne raison - supposons qu'un disque ouvert peut tomber en panne à tout moment.)
  • Oldversion.com est très utile lorsque les nouveaux logiciels ou leurs mises à jour sont trop lourds ou ne fonctionnent pas du tout sur un ancien PC (ou implémentent de nouvelles fonctionnalités que vous n'aimez pas) .

Disassembly and Repair

The quickest way to find disassembly information for a device is often to feed the device make and model into your favourite search engine, appended with "disassembly". But the results will be of variable quality and usefulness. The following sites will often figure in the search results and may give some of the higher quality information.

  • The espares Advice Centre contains hundreds of simple diagnostic and repair guides and videos, as well a large collection of manuals, focused on domestic, kitchen and garden tools and appliances. There's a search box in which you can type "What's wrong with your appliance", or you can select the type of your appliance from a drop-down list and browse the avalable resources.
  • Bad Caps Forum is a place to get help for suspected bad electrolytic capacitors.
  • Camera Repair Flickr Pool is a pool on Flickr with photos of camera designs, including digital cameras.
  • Electronics Repair presents tips and guides by Jestine Yong (and his friends around the world) to repair load of electronics products. Super useful.
  • Fixit Club consists of simple instructions and tips on troubleshooting and repairing household things that break by best-selling “How Does it Work?” author Dan Ramsey.
  • FixYa is building a crowdsourced database of help queries and personalised answers.
  • iFixit makes it easy to fix things with online step-by-step repair guides, troubleshooting tips, and a thriving community of repair technicians who want to help.
  • Lowend Mac proposes we use “Apple gear as long as it helps you remain productive and meets your needs, upgrading only as necessary” and helps maintain and use older kit for longer.
  • Powerbook Medic is an online library of repair videos mostly of Apple products.
  • Reddit’s Computer Technicians is for people who are repair professionals or aspire to be. “End users” are encouraged to use /r/techsupport
  • Repairs Universe video library has a growing number of videos of smartphone and tablet repairs and teardowns.
  • sci.electronics.repair FAQ is a comprehensive historical archive of tips and guides on repairing many kinds of consumer electronics.

Manuals and Reference Info

As with Disassembly and Repair, your favourite search engine will often give you the quickest results, using the search terms "service manual" or "schematic" according to your need. Some sites list huge numbers of device model numbers, in some cases perhaps to optimise search rankings, but the the more technical service manuals may be lacking.

Technical Datasheets

In order to understand how a device works or to find a spare part you may need to identify an IC. Usually a small black package with 3 or more (often many more) pins, it should be marked with a part number and a manufacturing date code. The smallest devices just have an abreviated part number of just 3 letters and/or digits. If you can recognise the manufacturer's name or symbol the manufacturer's website will generally give the most reliable information. Alternatively, you can look up the part code with your favourite search engine or consult a datasheet archive such as below.

  • alldatasheet.com has a wide selection of semiconductor datasheets though the results it gives often need to be read very selectively. Often a device has a marking that is only part of the full part number due to space limitations. You can use the pull down next to the search box and select "marking" then enter the marking you see on the semiconductor, then search. Hopefully, this will find the part you are looking for.

(Search resuts at datasheet archives often need to be read very selectively as they may give large numbers of similar part numbers, often for very different and irrelevant types of device.)
