Using this archive
This archive brings together Fix My Gadget repair and buying guides for Johannesburg customers. Some articles help with urgent repair symptoms such as no power, broken screens, battery drain, liquid damage, overheating, slow computers and charging faults. Other articles help with buying decisions, upgrades, refurbished laptops, student laptops, MacBook prices and business IT support.
The goal is simple: understand the problem before money is spent. Many devices look broken in the same way from the outside, but the actual fault can be different. A laptop that does not turn on can be charger, battery, charging port, motherboard, RAM or storage. A MacBook black screen can be screen, backlight, battery or logic board. An iPhone that does not charge can be cable, charging port, battery or board. A TV with sound but no picture can be backlight, main board, power board or panel.
Use the archive to find the closest guide, then move to the correct service page or send photos on WhatsApp. Diagnostics are R350 and are waived when the approved repair proceeds. Pickup and delivery are paid services quoted upfront for Johannesburg areas.
