Diagnostic and Drop-Off Information

Contact Yellow City Tech before dropping off a device so timing and intake details can be confirmed.

Diagnostic fee

Repairs begin with a $25 diagnostic fee paid at drop-off. If the customer approves and proceeds with the repair, that $25 is applied toward the final repair total.

Waiting for an obvious replacement part

When the required part is reasonably obvious and can be confirmed before diagnosis—such as with a cracked screen or visibly damaged chassis—the customer may request to keep using the device until the replacement part arrives. This must be discussed and approved before the part is ordered. Devices with uncertain symptoms or potentially complex problems must be dropped off for diagnosis first.

Keeping the device is generally not appropriate for board-level or motherboard repairs, no-power or intermittent failures, liquid damage, data recovery, or any problem that requires inspection to identify the failed component or confirm the correct part.
