[QUOTE="Lifeisabeach, post: 1635606, member: 38864"] Since we don't know what the problem is exactly, we don't know what it takes to fix it. If it's a component that failed, then that component would need to be replaced. If it's a matter of a solder point that has lost contact, then that would just need to be re-soldered (that's what they mean by "reflow" or "reball", if I'm not mistaken). I had an audio-video receiver that started acting up once under warranty once, and on reading the service ticket when it came back, that's basically what they did... re-solder a couple bad spots.
