Nintendo Switch Lite with a dead Touchscreen, the least fun I've had with a repair
Replacing the Digitizer (Touchscreen) on a switch lite was more of an adventure then I had bargained for....mostly due to my own idiot tendencies :)
Here is the ifixit guide as promised, it will have all the detail you need if you try this at home...

    RGB does separate the colors, the green wire, however is a chroma mix, not green color. Green is not a primary color either. Scart was only really used for the Canadian and European markets, and the RGB standard. In the US we used “component,” which was a different configuration. Thanks for the video though.

    Cool video, I got a Japanese N64, where the seller hacked off the plastic. Kinda unfortunate, as I would have rather they kept it intact so it could *theoretically* be reverted, even though I know I never would. The case is cracked and broken as well, which is fine, as I wanted to re-shell it with transparent purple or green, and buy one of those 3D printed cart slots anyway. I lack the skills or tools, etc. to do an HDMI mod, unfortunately. Maybe someday down the line, I love the idea of modifying, and personalizing my consoles to make them my "own". Even though there's really not much I can actually do.

    For 6 switch models and jr. You can composite , and even S-Video mod them without removing parts and keep the RF modulator functional.

    As a weirdo who bought a Zune when they were new and have since owned a couple (just swapped the battery on my HD a few days ago over on my channel, so it was funny seeing you do Zune content on yours as well) I will say I personally prefer the Zune software over itunes, and back in the day it was doing what spotify is now. You could pay monthly for a subscription to the music service download as much as you could ever dream of, and still get to keep 10 songs every month (which honestly is really cool for a subscription service... not like netflix will let you go yeah keep a few movies even if you cancel). You could wirelessly lend songs to people, so if you knew another weirdo who had a zune you could just go hey check this song out and send it wirelessly to their zune. They could keep it for a few days (forgot how many). Also HD Radio, it still is one of the best HD radios around (if you are into that sorta thing) It had so many weird and neat quirks that set it apart as more than just a wannabe ipod, it genuinely felt like they were trying to do new and original things instead of playing catchup... they just did not have the right Steve pushing it. Steve Balmer was no Steve Jobs when it came to advertising their products. Alright that's the end of my Zune rant haha.

    • @TechGuyLife
      @TechGuyLife 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Possibly, but you might want to check other components to see if anything else is shorting to ground. According to the schematic (wiki.console5.com/tw/images/5/54/NES-001-Schematic---CPU%2C-PPU%2C-RAM%2C-CIC.png) 14,15,16,17 and 20 are supposed to be ground, so no issues there. pin 21 should not be tied to ground, that's for sure.

      check all the other pins on the ppu if nothing else is shorted to ground then most likely the short is something attached to the video out and you'd have to look at that on the schematics, there's capacitors and transistors in between pin 21 and the video connections. It might even be a small blob of solder or a broken trace, which can be really hard to find.
