    How can I fix an unformattable raw micro SD card?

    Have you got an old (er) computer running XP? You can try formatting to FAT32. This has saved me dozens of times. Martin

    9 LED UV disco light - remote control issue

    I believe it to be RF. The board has a 6.7458MHz crystal which can be used for the 433.92MHz transmitter frequency. These are very common with cheap 433MHz transmitters and receivers. You would have to try several cheap transmitters to find out which one works for your unit. Try eBay, they have...

    You cool them, not heat them. Is this units volume control digital or a potentiometer?. Martin

    have motor turn an oval platform

    Have a look here for plastic gears and pulleys. Two same size gears will give a sort of oval shape. Changing the distance between them will elongate the oval shape. The motor shaft will drive one gear, the other will free wheel. You’ll need to cut the desired size oval in plastic or thin...

    have motor turn an oval platform

    I am sorry, I can’t envisage what you are trying to portray. Is it an oval top (static) and a moving belt below?. Martin

    Can you draw what you want please and upload the pic here?. I think what you need is two cogs or drive pulleys and a belt or chain. Have a look here on google images for belt and pulleys. Martin

    A blender with digital control board fails

    No idea what the numbers mean. Did you first check that the bowl locks on properly and activates the one or two safety switches?. Also, some models have a motor reset switch. Martin

    Guidance on Electric Longboard Remote's Responsiveness

    Is it possible that the remote has ‘dual rates’ for a slower, smoother ride?. I know RC helicopter transmitters have ‘dual rates’, most beginners need it initially. Martin

    Pioneer S-W700 Subwoofer

    I keep old transformers, motors and inductors for the magnet wire (enamel wire) for this very purpose. Even single strands from stranded copper wire works fine but is not insulated. So careful bending and maybe glueing is required. Easy to do but takes patience and is worth it IMHO. Martin

    Pioneer S-W700 Subwoofer

    You might consider a ‘point to point’ wiring repair. Basically a jumper wire/s replacing the traces. Martin

    How do you control this? 4681jb1029j motor

    Although it should work on 12V dc, it does say 13VDC @ 120mA. Does your 12V supply at least 120mA?. Also try the polarity as it also states CCW (counter clockwise). I can’t imagine it making any difference though. Martin
