Predator is Acer's high-end gaming line. It runs hot under load, so cleaning, thermal paste and fan replacement are common jobs.
Common Predator repairs
- Overheating
- Screen
- GPU faults
- Charging
Keyboard and touchpad
Sticky, dead or repeating keys and an unresponsive touchpad are common after spills or heavy use. On the Acer Predator Helios 16 we replace the keyboard or touchpad, and check the ribbon cables at the same time.
Liquid spills
Turn the Acer Predator Helios 16 off straight away, unplug it and don't try to turn it back on. The sooner we can open it, clean the board and replace corroded parts, the better the chance of saving it. Liquid-damage repairs are outside our warranty, but any new parts we fit are covered for 90 days.
Screen replacement
Cracked glass, lines across the picture or a black screen with sound still working: we replace the display panel on the Acer Predator Helios 16 and test it fully before handing it back. If the fault is the display cable or backlight, we fix that instead of fitting a whole new screen.
