It was my first ever repair on this scale, not the best for sure and I learned my lesson. Thanks alot though Northbridge Fix!
Don't give up, just keep practicing on faulty PCBs you don't need.
I learned my lesson same way as you. I was trying to replace HDMI port on PS4 and it ended up with 5 ripped pads.
After few months and lots of practice PS4 was working again, because I was able to fix it using jumper wires
Don't kick yourself. He makes it look easy. Keep practicing and solder on.
Buy old Xbox 360s they're cheap and a good starting point imo.
Hiroshima under that charger port 🤣 but good content you created well done 👍🏼
That’s not bad at all. I’ve been microsoldering for years and I’ve seen way worse customer attempts. IMO the soldering for the charge port that he did was a little weak. I normally like to put solder balls onto the non visible pads and melt the port into place and then touch up the visible pads.
In fairness, you guys make repairs so interesting that it makes taking it up as a hobby much more appealing. And at least it is an honest customer not a professional repairman that messed it up
Dude, you're f*cking electronical neurosurgeon, you make it look so easy, and as service technician myself for last 14 years (mostly as end user support, basic hardware/software and it outsourcing), i can tell that a lot of people think that it'll be as easy as you present it, but waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaait, there's a catch. That catch is called practice. A SHITTON of practice. My confidence ends somewhere in replacing microUSB ports, reflashing bioses on dead boards and replacing few bigger mosfets, there is no way i'll have balls to go deep in ipad6 or iphone 6 and up. I have microscope, have (i think solid) solid soldering station, have good light, have steady hand, but don't have that confidence. But, i'm trying to practice as much i can. (on laptops i buy referred as "dead" from ebay or so or on really, like really dead boards). I take it more as an hobby than actual focus of my work, but i like to not stand on same spot for a long time, and i love to LEARN more about shit i do.
KUDOS m8, you're pretty inspirational man, love your vids, and love that you share your great knowledge. Thanks a lot for that.
you have the hands of a surgeon, keep up the good work.
loved the sped up piano music in the background. Super Dad.
I really like ur smiling when u see a device is working….
Hearing children is always nice! I'm enjoying your videos. Watching them i have a craving of replacing and soldering components..
Awesome fixing and analyzing skills. You have my humble admiration.
It is funny how easy this guy make the soldering process. The experience and consistent work is the reason.
Mister u make me so impressed today. You work like a surgeon 👨⚕️. Really enjoy your videos all the time. Thanks for teaching us. Love from Sydney.
I worked for a company once who had a standard $15 upfront inspection fee on all jobs, if customer went ahead with repair it was deducted from bill total at the end. On some items if they were considered useful to us as donors and it was likely to be an uneconomical repair we would explain this to customers and offer waive the fee in return for the item.
I had a feeling it’s going to work ! Job well done Alex !
Hello from Greece.
You are the best teacher.
Thanks for the knowledge and for your videos.
Also if you can please give the temperature and the speed air then use the hot air.
Regards
I don't want to say you make this all look easy, but you do make it look doable.
Kids made a beautiful background music for your video, 🎶.
such an inspiration for techies!
tiny cap : here we goo...
Northbridge : where are you going. huh.. back to place
Me asombra la facilidad con la que cambia cualquier componente, es un maestro sin duda. Saludos desde México.
Man you work like magic... Great job.
I had to laugh at the level of frustration from the first pause in the video before starting the repair.
I've had some like this before and ask myself why am I even bothering, but when it works it's rewarding.
VERY NICE. Reliable supply chain is CRITICAL.
I love your vids, that's why I'm here. I think it's weird though that you sell all the stuff to allow people to attempt these sorts of repairs themselves, yet chastise them for attempting it. Even you, a well experienced technician, knocked off a cap in the process. It would have been cool to hear you say some things they did right and some things they did wrong. Good video either way I just think it would have been more fun to hear a good natured critique since the chap is just learning and working on their own device.
The customer seems to have been honest with what happened. Which is super rare!
A very interesting video, seeing a real professional at work, with great skill and determination to repair the nigh impossible.
Awesome video as always. What a great job to have, that your kids can visit you while you work.
Wondering how can someone dislike a 20 minutes long video that was uploaded just 20 seconds ago😂😂?
Probably the board owner :)
@Haroldo Hilário 😂😂
@@robp4616 😂😂
the same person who attempted the previous repair
lol
Indeed for microsoldering proper flux and solder is paramount. Do not cheap on them. Or face consequences in form of solder does not sticking to components or flowing over all area where it must not flow. Destroyed several connectors because of bad flux :( Fake chips nowadays indeed are problem too.
Love how you do your videos, everything you say is so precise. And you always show us the working device at the end. I’m going to get into micro soldering repairs when I can get some equipment. Thanks for the inspiration.
That look of shock and disappointment when reading the client's note. LOL! Ps. Great work - great channel!
I must always admire the skills and ease going on here and I quite often when working on watches have your video's on playlist and just enjoy listening and watching these amazing repairs :D
We did an amazing job:
You did all the soldering and cleaning while I watched this video while eating chips
Me: wow,what a great job soldering that USB chip. I wish I could solder as well as that customer.
Alex: we'll have to replace that chip.
As always, impeccable work, the finesse and patience you have is truly remarkable, icon in the making!
Que maestro de la soldadura y todo.saludos desde Argentina.
Wow! what an awesome repair! You could have repaired 3 Switches with the time used on this board. But what a great guy and a great result
Every time When you say "we did a good job"
Im answering yes we did 😂
You are the Best. i learn so much from your Videos! Ty so much for this good work, keep it up !
14:48 love the humor here
Wholesome content bro, as a newcomer in repairing this was so helpful and inspiring to me. Greetings from Argentina
another solid repair, thanks for keeping us entertained and educated
😂, I'm actually working on one today. Nice job bro. Cheers
Omg i was just watching one of your video's i just cant stop i love it !
Watch the cat piss one. It’s hilarious!!
@@dougtaylor7724 i did ! I lol so hard 😂😂
The piss is out of control.
You can’t make that stuff up. A truly classic line.
Salaam. Amazing as always . Always watch your videos ❤️🇬🇧👍
@@kaiserschnitselsr.9228Its Salam and that Means peace in Arabic
thank you so much
gracia por todo el conocimiento ,no solo de sus tecnicas de microsoldadura, tambien nos enseña a manejar situaciones como esta con el cliente
You should definitely do this live on twitch. Nice content
Alex as usual great job and thank you for sharing your thoughts and the skill you have.
If a customer is trying to repair his/her own devices and fully aware of the consequences then that is brave and can do whatever he or she likes. I say go for it as along as you are aware of the consequences. He/she is paying for it and so be it. We are all benefitting and learning from it. For sure there are learning lessons for all as negatives and positives.
ما شاء الله عليك
الله يبارك لك في شبابك
ويحفظلك والدك والبيج بوس

Great great job. Be blessed.
I had mine repaired after failing but almost being able to replace a usb c port with the wrong soldering station equiptment . A guy did a dang good job for me and replaced it but now it want power on, when it did before .
I know the guy who sent this board is going to be reading the comments, so I have but one question...
WHY???
That board screams inexperience; either that or you're using the wrong tools for the job (which, to me, is still a sign of inexperience).
As Alex says, don't practice on boards/devices you care about. Practice on dead boards. At least the missing components were noted in the email as well as all work that was done. Glad this one turned out to be a success.
Fluke 87V?? You are the dude.
I thought Repair is easy but now i know it's not easy for everyone 👌
I've got very good time with this video. One comment is not enough to quote everything I liked from it.
But, I wish I could ask you two things, if you allow me.
1 - Is there any "trick" when soldering this micro capacitors? When I try to do like you, seems like my tweezer touch the board before the component itself, and it does not solder properly.
2 - Is there any temp recommended when you do soldering like those caps? I try to keep mine at 350-380 degrees but sometimes it took so much time to melt the solder. Maybe more air? I use 40-50% only because I'm afraid of those components fly to Narnia
NO YOU DID AN AMAZING JOB AND MUSIC
oh boy i have the same issue and ordered all the replacement chip
i hope i dont shake my hand like this dude :D
odd is that i have no shorts at all but it "charges" at 0.2 amps and with a battery which i have loaded externally it works fine and stays on the same percentage (with 15v charger plugged in)
This is exactly what ASMR videos should look like.
Nice, I love how knowledgeable you are
Awesome work as always dude. At 12-45 of the video it looks like a missing component and ripped off pads in the top right hand corner of the screen.
Well done!
Top man. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏I wish you was over here in the uk brother.
Love your work. 👊😉
Kids playing is always good music. When they are quiet....better check!
Always waiting yours videos like crazy thanks n god bless kids add fabulus background sound to videos lot of love to them
Wow great repair 👍
Best repair! Just remarkable
Did the screen also have a crack through it at the end, or a reflection? Good job on the repair as always
Amazing work as always wondering if keeping the switch docked for long periods of time is bad for it I have 2 I barely get to use one in bedroom for game night with wife and one in living room.
After watching the charging port issues and no power I got scared kept em off the dock 24/7.
Alex, you are the master of bosses👍 you picked the 6 caps like a machine from one board to the other💪 i enjoyed the piano-sounds from your kids at the beginning😂
Very nice job, thats the reason you should never stop trying and keep doing, one day you will get the electronic-stuff back to life
You tell that guy Alex!! Who does he think he is running away like that?!? .... We can replace him! Lol
So smooth
Great work Alex!
Another great repair keep up the good work / stay safe all the best
I feel for this guy, I was repairing lcd connector on my switch and a solder blob dropped onto the components. 😭😭
How the hell is that a problem?! I dont care whom you are and how good your eyesight is, you need a cheap ass microscope to do the job. You also need flux, solder wick and a good fine iron tip. I learned it the hard way.
Hey brother, my sons switch stopped charging. Found out it was usb-c was bad. I sent it to a guy in my town said no problem, he put new usb-c plug on but still don’t power on or get charging symbol. I’m not an expert but from watching your videos I’ve tested a lot of the caps and no problems for m92 or p13. But I do have shorted caps to the left of the usb-c plug by the max777 chip. Also when you flip the motherboard over to the right of the p13 chip there’s a couple caps have shorts. Anyway I can email or send you pics of what I’m talking about and you could quote me about a repair or replacement? Thanks 🙏 also your vids are very inspiring and I’ve learned sooo much!!
Awesome ✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻
Good intentions to do work gives successful results👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Keep it up🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Amazing repairment.conguratilations.
Nice job Alex!
you don't see too many sites on youtube where the guy is fixing the board in the store and he filmed it. it's different.
Janitor work, Please clean up my mess ... lol
Outstanding work!
Great Video!! If I need my Electronics fixed, I’m sending them to you. 👍
i enjoy watching your videos i also do repairs i really need to buy some of those tools
You are the man, fantastic job 👏
ما شاء الله ... تبارك الله ❤❤❤❤
ايدين تنلف بالحرير
I wished you never end up this video .. so beautiful
what you are doing there is kind of art
keep doing what you do man >>> much love & respect
NorthRidgeFix do you have a video on the basic equipment we need to begin repairing electronics?
Please tell me you fastforwarded 10x when replacing the 6 missing components, otherwise it was godly fast donor board swaps. Again thanks for another great upload!
And his hands are over here and his eyes are watching the monitor screen all while making the video.
I love your videos man! 😍Amazing!😃
Hello,
Can you make a video how to find the right smd capacitor and smd Components please ! Because the smd capacitor there are not any description on it ! Thank you so much for your videos they very helpful !
Best regards,
Good job of not giving up - if it cost more just call them and tell them how much and see what the customer says - see what they say
🎹 🎶 made your video more interesting
Thanks kids!
Like always..... you are the best !!!! 👌👌👌👌🎊
"Hiroshima bomb under this connector" lmfao, your sense of humor is awesome
He said it so randomly too 😂
Better than factory 😀
ما شاء الله تبارك الله
الله يوفقك اخي وتقريبا رآيت كل فديوهاتك
❤❤❤ اخوك سلام من العراق
Gold video
We did an amazing job? No you did an amazing job
Better than factory!
Looks like with all those cracks the customer needs a new screen also
It's actually my switch lol.. The screen is good to go, it has a glass screen protector on it that is broken.
Did you use a microscope to attempt your repairs?
No, I did not.. based on his microscope I very much should have!!
@@klepp2005 how much did you pay for the repair?
Very useful i love it this type videos, you are awesome men
what is the air temperature??...
I would appreciate your help ,,, I see all your videos, thank you very much! ..
