A few years back, you made me so embarrassed that I took down my "Laptop Cooking 101" video. Good job I found your videos so I stopped giving people bad advice! (i.e. BGA "fixing"). Thanks man. Appreciate your expertise.
Great video. I hope you are going to place a piece of kapton tape over the pads that held that JTAG connector, so that another piece of food will not be able to short the pads again.
you know louis, now that right to repair has passed in California there is a chance that the tools that fit on that JTAG connector might become available. and I will smile a bit when you have to refit every jtag you removed :)
Metric volts eh... nice, I'll remember that one for the next time. In the meantime, I'm curious as to why it's gone and done this, time to get some debugging data off you. EDIT: Now fixed. github.com/inflex/BK-390A
Wilson, the code is all available at github.com/inflex/BK-390A/blob/master/win-bk390a.cpp It's C++ (strictly speaking, it's C in this case) and just uses the plain Windows GDI interface.
Wilson, the delay (meter->screen) is because of the meter itself; it updates only at about a 2Hz rate and only over a 2400bps link. The software itself is updating the screen within a millisecond or two of receiving the full data packet from the multimeter.
i dont ring the bell but i still watch your videos as they come along, I only keep up to date with happening news, love your channel for learning and that i do on my own time. Great stuff, you're a kick ass dude and respect you much.
You should insulate those j-tag pads when you're done with it... Maybe some black epoxy? A nice thin layer that they may not notice at first glance in the refurb factory :D
JavoCover from the amount of times things got sucked in I do think he learned that way, good thing is that with his Hakko aifilter he can retrieve parts relatively easy by opening the cover and picking it up from the first filter layer ;)
I know this is figured out by now but still. It says volts under volts and MV beside the millivolts. Could be displayed better the lettering and such but it saying both so you know what is what. I'd say put a big V under the voltage number, and the mV under the millivolt numbers that way you can do the right size so you can see both and still be able to show - and +.
Why don't you repair other laptops Louis :((((((( I just fried my Asus gaming laptops motherboard by not wearing anti-static wristband and not plugging out battery! I need people like you man :(
Louis, I'm surprised you don't have a bench meter with RS232 hooked up to software to display the voltage. Not too hard to get a Fluke 8840a or Keithley 195 for under 100 dollars. Both units are super accurate. The 8840a is also super fast. I own both. I guess a big issue with a bench meter is you'd need space behind the bench so you can see the display, but the RS232 means you can just see the values on the monitor. Not that I have any idea about how nice that software is.
I have a laptop that sporadically died it seemed. Made sense it is 15 ish years old if not older. Popped it open to see what was wrong and saw what surface mount micro soldering entailed and I went nope, I did what I could I scrubbed it with a tooth brush and alcohol put it together and it worked. I noticed a spot where water got in and a spark had jumped (there was a black mark on the board where it sparked) across a cap and something else (I measure about 19 volts in that area). With an apple product the damn thing would probably explode if that happened.
I'm looking for multimeter for basic reading use. Like dead pc speakers woofer and motherboard boot loop, ect. Which one would you suggest from fluke. Just for hobby and learning.
I live on Argentina. This month they're gonna open the first commercialized and actual support store for Apple. Thanks for this videos. If I ever have a friend that has some kind of trouble, we'll probably gonna have to use your videos for repairing any kind of motherboard. Since, they sell some of their macs, over 30.000 pesos (Something like 1500 dollars, which is way WAY over the normal price of any kind of laptop here on Argentina). So, I can only imagine that some of my friends will have them, just to say "Hey...look my new Macbook. It cost me more than any other laptop, so it must be awesome"... Anyway, great video :D
No need to ring the f----ng bell that make every video on TH-cam make a notification on your phone. If you know what you want to see and checking in the right place you don't need that bell.
Your...Kung fu...is strong...today....Grasshopper. Must be TH-cam messing up the audio. Several vids I've watched that were uploaded today have had messed up audio.
if the food falls on the same spot when the Jtag removed, would it cause the same problem? or is it something specifically in the Jtag that makes it fail
wait if you can just remove the jTag connector and the board will still work that is the damn porpous of them installing the connector in the first place? and then just as i asked that question you answered it.
Hi Louis.I have the same problem on a Macbook air motherboard, NO green light...the only difference is that when I plug in the charger the fan spins at Max rpm...do you know what the cause might be?Thank you!
I know nothing about board repair but I do know that this is the second time I've watched Louis replace an SMC reset IC in a very short timespan. You'd think they make such an important component more rugged. Then again... It's Apple.
wtf my friend spilled an entire glass of cool aid into his pc power supply while it was running (accidently) and it still worked after we replaced the psu. This guy put a crumb of banana bread barely on his power connector and fried an IC on the motherboard?!? Nice build quality, Apple.
I need some help about the soldering such small pins. Not sure why, but when I try to solder these small pins , lets say a SOIC chip, i bridge the pins with the solder every time. When you solder the pins the excess solder is like sucked away to your solder iron tip, unless there is a big ass solder mess. I just seem to bridge the pins no matter what, and it is frustrating. I am using flux, the one you use, but i'm not sure about my solder, not sure if its leaded or tinned, how can you tell, does not tell me on the label? Or is this just all technique and I'm a dumb ass who needs practice.... :) - I want to get back into this work, but have never worked on SMD stuff before, and it is exciting. Needing a life style change. Also, how do you find a fault on a 3.3v rail, when it is grounded and there is a ton of components on the 3.3v rail? I removed one burnt out chip, but 3.3v is still grounded. Oh, I also hit that bell. Love your videos, maybe some tuts on fault finding without a schematic.
To the guy who wants to offer memory upgrades: There is a very good chance you brick a 1000$ phone from someone who is no fun at all. He will kick your ass pretty bad and that's not worth it.
Considering how much of a centre of potential destruction the Jtag is I'd love to know why Apple don't take steps to protect it from exposure to liquid and other contaminants. A blob of sealant over the legs and a cap to sit over the socket surely wouldn't be that expensive.
Better yet, why even use a connector? I've designed many products and the JTAG has always been on a bed of nails array. The IFL and test is almost always done in production with a bed of nails test jig and a connector just adds cost and unreliability to the product. If it's a product likely to get moisture damage you can cover the BONA with conformal coating or varnish after test. Also having to attach a connector during test is just another way the product can fail final test, not to mention making the test procedure slower. In product development it takes just a few minutes to solder wires to the BONA, or you can just get a production test jig built at the same time as the final board and use that...
I see the point of having a 'jam the lead into the hole on the board to do the job' approach, it does at least make it quicker and simpler to do the job (lets face it, the people doing the job are probably largely unskilled because they're cheaper to hire) but yeah, i tend to agree with your point. I just think it's insane for such a vulnerable part of the board to be left exposed to the slightest of abuse for the sake of what's literally pennies worth of gunk and plastic. It's not like Macs are cheap, put 2 cents worth of protection on the damn thing Apple! I'm sure the kind of people willing to spend that kind of cash wouldn't mind, they could call it 'Apple premium ingress protection' and make it out of branded white plastic all while giving it a cute name.
You don't exactly need to be a rocket-surgeon to use a bed of nails tester. You put the board in the slot and pull the clamp down; the pogo pins go in the right place by the alignment of the jig. I would have to guess the point of the connector is that it can be plugged in while it's still assembled into a laptop.
puddingpimp Exactly. You don't need to completely remove the board, and you only need to send apple stores and repair facilities a cable rather than a test jig. That's why it's a connector.
I like JTAG connectors... Great hacking potential. However, routing that many important things to the same *tiny* connector is just dumb. Hell, at the very least do the layout so shorting adjacent pins doesn't kill it, but I'd say go full size or go home. Crappy Apple designers.
Hi Louis, I love to watch your videos, I wanted to know why don't you use JTAG connector to measure voltages on different rails as it has mostly all the power rails that we need to check...
Basically, this JTAG connector is used by apple to access every vital part of the board ( for flashing, updating EFI, etc etc), the problem is that, as you can see in this video ( and some other ), JTAG iscentralizing every access but also make it too much vulnerable to corrosion, food, and other things which lead to malfunction. Removing it is a good solution so it doesn't happen anymore.
SOMEONE HELP PLS My MacBook pro 2011version doesn't turn on. When I plug in the charger the light on the charger burns green but the MacBook isn't charging and doesn't turn on when plugged in. I tried the smc reset a 1000 times by removing the battery but when I plug it in the charges burns green again and the MacBook still won't turn on. Sometimes if I connect the charger the light doesn't turn green and I can power it on but the fan is spinning violently and loud. If I disconnect the unlit charger the MacBook turns off. When I do manage to turn on and log on with the spinning fan I notice the battery icon isn't there and is a cross instead. Pls help me or help me diagnose what is wrong.
Ringing the bell isn't very important if you regularly look at the subscription page. You only really need it if you don't want to look through that or if you really want to see the livestreams as they happen. Also, for some reason I sometimes get notifications anyway.
When you add too much solder to the center pad, then push it down so the solder squeezes out, doesn't that carry a risk of the excess solder bridging between the center pad and one of the pins? And it would be under the chip, so you wouldn't see it. Right?
I don't get what is so hard to get about TH-cam notifications. ANY VIDEO that ANY CHANNEL you're subbed to releases, shows up in your "Subscriptions feed/tab"; whether or not the bell is clicked. They show up in that list in chronological order. All that the bell does is give you notifications through ANDROID, Windows, or iPhone. They don't get "buried" unless you're looking for the in your "home tab". Use your "subscription feed/tab", not the "home tab" and you'll never need to worry about the "bell notifications". If you're not getting the notifications from the bell, its most likely because of your OS, which is where those notifications are displayed through. If your TH-cam app has been force stopped, put to sleep, etc then the notifications won't show up. It has nothing to do with TH-cam preferring one video/channel over another. Videos, from channels you're subbed to, WILL ALWAYS show up in the "Subscriptions tab/feed".
You must be behind the times, here's a summary of how the subscriptions actually work th-cam.com/video/CNuqzIguyCU/w-d-xo.html Here's the full video of the youtube team making fools of themselves: th-cam.com/video/OgZ2ABxFp6g/w-d-xo.html
TH-cam subscriptions have been unreliable for years due to their frequent attempts to steer users toward "recommended videos". They have made the system progressively more hostile, e.g. eliminating groups and forcing users to view everything in a giant blob. I switched to TH-cam's not-well-known RSS feed some years ago. It's far more reliable than the subscriptions feed (at least since the times I abandoned it) but also acts up from time to time. Also, it's not true that the sub feed prevents users from viewing new content; the side bar on every video works fine for that. Really not sure why they don't just stick with that. It works fine as is and has for many years.
So, there are a couple if things I don’t understand about your work. First, why are you always so down on Apple? It seems to me that they are making you rich with work. Second. Why do you say a motherboard is fixed just because you get a fan spin? I work on Apples everyday and I see computers that have a light and fan spin but the unit will not power on. So that cannot be the only way you prove that it works and, “go to the next board”. Third, how is it that you can get so close to resistors and such with that heat gun and not have them come off the board? I find that amazing. I’d love to say tons more but I don’t like typing on an iPad. So until next time, later.

folks please stop using adblock on louis' videos so he can afford a new hdmi connector which doesnt drop out constantly :)
:'(
I always look his videos from my Smart Phone, so, yeah, I actually watch his ads :D
Finding a new connector to a sony NEX-EA50.. good luck to that :'(
I don't ever disable adblock, sorry. Also, pretty sure he can afford a new connector :)
I use TH-cam Red so I don't have to worry about ads.
A few years back, you made me so embarrassed that I took down my "Laptop Cooking 101" video. Good job I found your videos so I stopped giving people bad advice! (i.e. BGA "fixing"). Thanks man. Appreciate your expertise.
nice work taking it down man so many people don't care if they misinform
mV = mate Volts. You'd have to do a shoey to understand, mate.
Bloody oath!
As always you can buy the parts or tools I use in this video from our site at store.rossmanngroup.com Thanks for watching!
This man just had a full infomercial for his own website lmao
If there's anyone you should feel welcome to shill for it's yourself!
The food bit was GREAT!!!! You are a credit to our profession!
Great video. I hope you are going to place a piece of kapton tape over the pads that held that JTAG connector, so that another piece of food will not be able to short the pads again.
you know louis, now that right to repair has passed in California there is a chance that the tools that fit on that JTAG connector might become available. and I will smile a bit when you have to refit every jtag you removed :)
Louis has got that classic music radio host voice.
Metric volts eh... nice, I'll remember that one for the next time. In the meantime, I'm curious as to why it's gone and done this, time to get some debugging data off you.
EDIT: Now fixed. github.com/inflex/BK-390A
Aren't all Ozzies measuring in mate-Volts?
After carefully studying the data, I've come to understand it's actually macVolts :D
Wilson, the code is all available at github.com/inflex/BK-390A/blob/master/win-bk390a.cpp It's C++ (strictly speaking, it's C in this case) and just uses the plain Windows GDI interface.
Wilson, the delay (meter->screen) is because of the meter itself; it updates only at about a 2Hz rate and only over a 2400bps link. The software itself is updating the screen within a millisecond or two of receiving the full data packet from the multimeter.
Bugs happen. Thanks for everything you do for the repair community.
i dont ring the bell but i still watch your videos as they come along, I only keep up to date with happening news, love your channel for learning and that i do on my own time.
Great stuff, you're a kick ass dude and respect you much.
Louis, I saw an ad on facebook today for the right to repair bill
a video that doesn't start with 30 secs of your back to us? unsubbed
Lack of humming is even more bothersome.
He could have mooned us.
Pimping your shop - know what mate, good luck to you. You've all the hallmarks of a super entrepreneur, credit where due.
@12:57 "Faster than Israel will trick the US in a war on Syria"...LOL. I hit the bell just for that. +10.
dunno why but your ads were making me laugh like hell......
You should insulate those j-tag pads when you're done with it... Maybe some black epoxy? A nice thin layer that they may not notice at first glance in the refurb factory :D
Removing the JTAG connector... genius
No Louis it metric volts.
I'm disappointed I didn't capitalise on that opportunity now that I think of it.
No, it's 'Merkan volts.
I see a nice new, anti parts eating, feature on the fume extractor 👍🏻
Rik van der Mark I hope he didn't learned the hard way to have an anti part eating system. Like digging in the container searching for a resistor.
JavoCover from the amount of times things got sucked in I do think he learned that way, good thing is that with his Hakko aifilter he can retrieve parts relatively easy by opening the cover and picking it up from the first filter layer ;)
I just turned off the ad block and replayed the video. The Ad played fine.
I've not hit the bell, yet i still get notified of your videos
I know this is figured out by now but still. It says volts under volts and MV beside the millivolts. Could be displayed better the lettering and such but it saying both so you know what is what.
I'd say put a big V under the voltage number, and the mV under the millivolt numbers that way you can do the right size so you can see both and still be able to show - and +.
Crumb wins.
Breadality.
I was always wondering why he hated JTAGs so much. Now I know. Awesome.
Why don't you repair other laptops Louis :((((((( I just fried my Asus gaming laptops motherboard by not wearing anti-static wristband and not plugging out battery! I need people like you man :(
you're killing it man! Great job
Damn me too...... Next time Louis Rossmann. Good video BTW.
Open the JTAG bay doors, Apple.
I'm sorry, but I can't do that Louis.
Louis _BOSSmann_ back at it, exposing the barrel full of rotten Carpples
amazing stuff, i always enjoy watching your videos
Louis, I'm surprised you don't have a bench meter with RS232 hooked up to software to display the voltage. Not too hard to get a Fluke 8840a or Keithley 195 for under 100 dollars. Both units are super accurate. The 8840a is also super fast. I own both.
I guess a big issue with a bench meter is you'd need space behind the bench so you can see the display, but the RS232 means you can just see the values on the monitor.
Not that I have any idea about how nice that software is.
What's the name of Paul Daniels software you use for viewing the scematics ?
I have a laptop that sporadically died it seemed. Made sense it is 15 ish years old if not older. Popped it open to see what was wrong and saw what surface mount micro soldering entailed and I went nope, I did what I could I scrubbed it with a tooth brush and alcohol put it together and it worked. I noticed a spot where water got in and a spark had jumped (there was a black mark on the board where it sparked) across a cap and something else (I measure about 19 volts in that area). With an apple product the damn thing would probably explode if that happened.
those are macbook volts (mv)
i love to watch you give apple hell so much i subscribed!
I'm looking for multimeter for basic reading use. Like dead pc speakers woofer and motherboard boot loop, ect. Which one would you suggest from fluke. Just for hobby and learning.
Damn, just missed it. OH well. Great video!
19:37 - Thank you to whoever asked that question, I didn't know what it was either.
Also, now that I do, *hahahahahaha* suck it Apple 🤣
If you had to buy a macbook, would you remove the jtag connector preemptively? Or at least seal it with some conformal coating/nail polish?
I live on Argentina. This month they're gonna open the first commercialized and actual support store for Apple. Thanks for this videos. If I ever have a friend that has some kind of trouble, we'll probably gonna have to use your videos for repairing any kind of motherboard.

No need to ring the f----ng bell that make every video on TH-cam make a notification on your phone.
If you know what you want to see and checking in the right place you don't need that bell.
I disabled adblock in order to help louis to stay with youtube because twitch just doesn't work for me.
God bless you
Thought you didn't believe in God?
Your...Kung fu...is strong...today....Grasshopper.
Must be TH-cam messing up the audio. Several vids I've watched that were uploaded today have had messed up audio.
if the food falls on the same spot when the Jtag removed, would it cause the same problem? or is it something specifically in the Jtag that makes it fail
wait if you can just remove the jTag connector and the board will still work that is the damn porpous of them installing the connector in the first place? and then just as i asked that question you answered it.
Great store
Rang the bell but i still missed out. Watching tho.
Nice job, I know who's getting MBP if it goes down. :)
why to remove jtag, while for power users it could give possibilities?
IDK, I assume its same like with phones.
Hi Louis.I have the same problem on a Macbook air motherboard, NO green light...the only difference is that when I plug in the charger the fan spins at Max rpm...do you know what the cause might be?Thank you!
How do you PC products compare to MAC products ??
I knew that you will remove JTAG connector when noticed it. Nevertheless that looked like a castration for me :P
It seems that your chip-eating monster has now some mouth guard on it.
I know nothing about board repair but I do know that this is the second time I've watched Louis replace an SMC reset IC in a very short timespan. You'd think they make such an important component more rugged. Then again... It's Apple.
i love when you go shill mode
Whats the point of the J-TAG connector?
Great 👍 video thanx
what do you have against JTAG? just curious :)
That’s how you make an Apple Crumble
How is it that you get the schematics for these boards? I would have thought the manufacturers would be pretty tight with these.
google the number of the board and you will find sites selling them.
wtf my friend spilled an entire glass of cool aid into his pc power supply while it was running (accidently) and it still worked after we replaced the psu. This guy put a crumb of banana bread barely on his power connector and fried an IC on the motherboard?!? Nice build quality, Apple.
Just posting to say that I rang louis' bell

You can ring my be-e-ell, ring my bell.🎶
Great Video, Louis! The deep state comment I really did LOL. It is so true. Best Wishes!
I have a desiccant ball lodged into my headphone jack port on my 2014 macbook pro retina. Any advice on how to get this thing out?
James Hastings try gently heating it with a hair dryer to get rid of moisture in the ball. It should shrink and fall out eventually. Good luck!
I was able to destroy the ball with a nail. chunks fell out.. it works.
James Hastings Cool!
Death by food? Mama Cass?
Considering how much of a centre of potential destruction the Jtag is I'd love to know why Apple don't take steps to protect it from exposure to liquid and other contaminants. A blob of sealant over the legs and a cap to sit over the socket surely wouldn't be that expensive.

True, but wouldn't you need a different one for every model? Given Apples love of ludicrous prices I'd think that would be an expensive way to go.
puddingpimp Exactly. You don't need to completely remove the board, and you only need to send apple stores and repair facilities a cable rather than a test jig. That's why it's a connector.
I like JTAG connectors... Great hacking potential. However, routing that many important things to the same *tiny* connector is just dumb. Hell, at the very least do the layout so shorting adjacent pins doesn't kill it, but I'd say go full size or go home. Crappy Apple designers.
How on Earth did a breadcrumb got there?
Hi Louis, I love to watch your videos, I wanted to know why don't you use JTAG connector to measure voltages on different rails as it has mostly all the power rails that we need to check...

SOMEONE HELP PLS
My MacBook pro 2011version doesn't turn on. When I plug in the charger the light on the charger burns green but the MacBook isn't charging and doesn't turn on when plugged in. I tried the smc reset a 1000 times by removing the battery but when I plug it in the charges burns green again and the MacBook still won't turn on.

there is solder mask between the center pad and the pads for the pins of the chip. Solder does not stick there.
haha, how funny would it be if that was a tiny bit off an apple on the jtag
I didn’t ring the bell
I rang bell :)
I don't get what is so hard to get about TH-cam notifications. ANY VIDEO that ANY CHANNEL you're subbed to releases, shows up in your "Subscriptions feed/tab"; whether or not the bell is clicked.

Here's the full video of the youtube team making fools of themselves: th-cam.com/video/OgZ2ABxFp6g/w-d-xo.html
If you only use the sub feed though you won't ever see new content from people you aren't subbed to.
bell gives email notifications too, if you still use email
TH-cam subscriptions have been unreliable for years due to their frequent attempts to steer users toward "recommended videos". They have made the system progressively more hostile, e.g. eliminating groups and forcing users to view everything in a giant blob. I switched to TH-cam's not-well-known RSS feed some years ago. It's far more reliable than the subscriptions feed (at least since the times I abandoned it) but also acts up from time to time. Also, it's not true that the sub feed prevents users from viewing new content; the side bar on every video works fine for that. Really not sure why they don't just stick with that. It works fine as is and has for many years.
i subscribe so that i can see all new videos in my subscription feed, the bell shit spams me too hard
So, there are a couple if things I don’t understand about your work. First, why are you always so down on Apple? It seems to me that they are making you rich with work. Second. Why do you say a motherboard is fixed just because you get a fan spin? I work on Apples everyday and I see computers that have a light and fan spin but the unit will not power on. So that cannot be the only way you prove that it works and, “go to the next board”. Third, how is it that you can get so close to resistors and such with that heat gun and not have them come off the board? I find that amazing. I’d love to say tons more but I don’t like typing on an iPad. So until next time, later.
this foul j-tag should be eliminated with a monstrous iron tip
I have a rung bell (as I have on many other channels). Mine hasn’t rung in years. Bloody TH-cam.
