I've seen quite a few comments asking me to make a cleaning video for the Xbox Series X. I already have! Here's the link: th-cam.com/video/dKJ2ATvKKAs/w-d-xo.html
Oh no steve! Ive js heard you had cancer?? Youve got this man,you really thought me alot about gaming consoles and how to repair them! I want to learn more from you! All the best for your recovery ❤❤
you are the only channel on that i don't skip the advertisement because i know you deserve every cent for your content and especially for the fight againt the disease. i love you man.
I hope your doing very well my friend, I'm so thankful to still get videos so often! I've been watching for nearly 7 years now and have learned a LIMITLESS amount of information from all of your videos! 😊
I got an overheating warning from my slim last night, I’ve been watching you for awhile on Facebook and immediately ran to your TH-cam page to find a cleaning tutorial…this video was extremely helpful. Thank you so much, I ended up taking the sandwich out to best access all the heat sinks because they were completely impacted…I did not take the sandwich apart because I know my limits and I don’t want to compromise the Liquid Metal….I appreciate everything you do to help the gaming community!
I've been watching your video for a long while now but never commented. You have many strangers who are pulling for your health recovery. God Bless you 🙏
This guy taught me how to repair my consoles and make some money out of my hobby, I didn't check the account for a couple of months and now I come back and see him like this, it's heartbreaking :( I hope you'll get well soon, Steve.
As someone, who had to took apart his whole PS4 Pro several times over the years, just to clean it properly, I'm again stunned and thankful about how much Sony improved in their consoldesign. So that keeping dust out, or even just checking the heatsink, isn't pure pain anymore.
It's been a minute since I've watched one of your videos, I'm not current on what happened but I can guess. It's good to see you're still at it. If you ever need a hand just let me know, you've taught me a few tricks and I wouldn't mind repaying the favor. My best for you and your's.
it's always nice seeing a device got a proper teardown and reassembled, it gives a unique insight on how the device is designed. my childhood was GBA era and I had no idea how it works, I just know it's a game device that I must own 😅. fast-forward till now, it's amazing how ps5 managed to perform that much with just a box design. it just amazed me to see how things work, how all the parts were interconnected and well designed it is, especially the more modular disc drive. I just cleaned mine a week ago after 6 months of use, it is dusty. took the fan off and clean using brush. looked clean again.
Thanks to watching your videos over the years I have now started to take apart and fully replace thermal paste and liquid metals on my own, I did my PS5 last week!
Hello i just wanted to say your videos inspired me to open my own workshop !! Day 3 gotta keep going Thank you so much for all the effort you do and the entertainment you provide !! Hope you are doing well i wish you all the best ❤
Followed your advice step by step and did the stage 3 cleaning, PS5 definitely needed it, and it went smoothly… Dusting out these system is like an oil change for a car, you gotta do it or it’s not gonna last as long … Appreciate the simple easy to follow video !
Thank you for this tutorial, I like to clean my own counsels. I live next to train tracks and a Pepsi warehouse with about 30 tractors running around. It gets very dusty in the house. So I clean all my counsels about every 3 months. Thanks again Steve
Why is vacuuming the ‚getting really crazy‘ method? I think that the tool every nonprofessional thinks of first. Also, is there a reason why you specifically recommend a mini vacuum? Just in case someone doesn’t have small nozzles for its vacuum? Or is a regular one to strong?
A little worried to proceed with the later stages, but I got the confidence to do some basic cleaning. Every little helps! Thank you for this video, I’ll certainly come back to it whenever I feel the Ps5 needs a deeper clean.
I originally used a Ryobi leaf blower ( just the small one ) and its always worked fine but seeing how easy a stage 2 clean i can retire my leaf blower, the console has a 5yr warranty and in the UK they wont honour it if the security seal is damaged. Keep up the good work and im happy that your hair is starting to grow back.
Love the different stages, depending on how brave you are.. informative as always. Maybe one day ill go beyond step 2 of just taking out the fan and cleaning it
Just did cleaning on my phat PS5 yesterday too.. just nice u uploaded a PS5 cleaning video! All I can say from this video is that the slim is much more easier to work with than the phat version 💪💪💪
Its been a while since I've seen one of your videos. I think the last one was related to DK Oldies. In any case, I hope you crush your disease. This stuff always hits me hard. My son at the age of 5 months was diagnosed with a rare (but treatable) form of cancer. Thankfully he is in remission. Best of luck!
this is the best video ever about cleaning the ps5. I was kinda worried about even taking off the covers coz they take some force and i didnt wanna break em but your vid really helped me take em apart and put em back in place. Didnt need to do stage 3 cleaning but i kept watching anyways 😂
Thanks for this video! I've been wanting to clean mine but haven’t opened a Ps5 before. From watching your videos, I was able to work on our Ps4 over the years. I haven't watched a Ps5 tear down for cleaning before though, so this is exactly what I needed to learn. Thanks again!
You forgot to mention BW-100's unique super power: it doesn't conduct electricity, so it's safe for things like phones that can't easily have power removed! Thanks again, and best wishes.
You are a legend, I love your videos. Thank you for having the courage to do these videos even though you are going through a healing process. I know you will get past this, once you do, promise to braid your hair after you grow it out :D
It'll be awesome if we have the same tutorial for the Series X/S! But that aside, You are the GOAT, Steve! We all love and care for you! I really hope that your sicness is only a Chapter and we still have you for a long time :T
Hey Steve, I noticed on your Flooded Mountain Dew Xbox video at the 2:44 timestamp there's some trace damage on the xbox motherboard right above your flux syringe. Not sure what those traces are for but thought you'd might like to know
OFC You read my mind. I was just thinking about cleaning ours the other day. Kids have it on 24 / 7 so its gotta look like a damn dust bowl on the inside.
What is that fan model? I have the same model fan but it makes a coil whine sound that's so loud and so annoying. I've been trying to see which model that fan is since mine has it too and I can't really take it apart to check for myself because I don't have the tools... Can you please tell me? Thanks!
the slim version hasn't even been out for a year yet so should still be under warranty, contact Sony and get it replaced rather than taking it apart yourself.
@@markrowe8824 I can't, it's from a different country. So the warranty is not available here and I can't really send it to Germany to get it fixed from Turkey.
Great video!!! You always do a detailed video!!! May I ask why you don't use microfiber cloths? For dust removal on the metal heatsink and heat shield?
Steve, any chance you could show how to remove chips without using hot air? For example, by applying hot solder in order to melt existing solder to remove the chip? Hot air stations are expensive and many of us don’t have one.

It might be helpful to have a playlist for the cleaning tutorials. Thanks for producing these!
Can you fix my Nintendo switch
Love your videos!
My ps5's HDMI doesn't work and I don't want to mess up soldering off and on myself lol
@@Tronicsfix can you make a video on replacing the rumble motors and the button circuit board on the PS4 controller
Oh no steve! Ive js heard you had cancer?? Youve got this man,you really thought me alot about gaming consoles and how to repair them! I want to learn more from you! All the best for your recovery ❤❤
Oh man, hopefully it was caught early and he’s gonna be fine … ✊

I just found this looking for a way to fix my overheating problem and I am blown away by your teaching. I hope you get better soon

You are so right! 👍
I have used your PS5 cleaning video every year. I always have done a stage 2 cleaning and it has always worked great.
I watch every ad on this man's channel, take care of yourself mate! Thank you for your videos!
Mine is 100% clean, and it will forever be. Tip: I left it un-bought at the shop. Free and effective.
Lol, that's one way to keep it clean!
That’s where mine is too & I told em to keep it lay down.
@@InternetListener that's where my collection goes too.
And it never will be used, never expierience true gaming love and compassion and drama. Thats somewhat sad 😢
So how is it yours?

I love this tutorial of how to clean the PS5 Slim. Great job, Steve!
Thanks to watching your videos over the years I have now started to take apart and fully replace thermal paste and liquid metals on my own, I did my PS5 last week!
Wishing you a great weekend, Steve!
I was pleasantly surprised when I cleaned off my fan, but I've seen some of the hot messes that come across your desk.
Some consoles are soooo dirty!

I've not.been on your channel in a while and was saddened to see your fighting an illness. I wish you well my friend and hope you pull through.
Your channel is a goldmine. Thank you so much for posting your knowledge and passion, i wish the best for you!
Just what to say you are the man been Watching your videos for years you got this all the best
Just did cleaning on my phat PS5 yesterday too.. just nice u uploaded a PS5 cleaning video! All I can say from this video is that the slim is much more easier to work with than the phat version 💪💪💪
You make taking most things apart very easy.

My son at the age of 5 months was diagnosed with a rare (but treatable) form of cancer. Thankfully he is in remission. Best of luck!
Glad that modern consoles are decently easy to take apart since they know people will. Need my clean my fat ps5 soon
Do I have a PS5 slim?
No.
Did I was the video in its entirety?
I sure did!
Do I know anything about electronics repair?
No.
Do I care? No. Am I impressed? No. Do I own a slim? Yes! Did I watch the video in its entirety? I sure did! 😅😊
One of the best channels on TH-cam and mostly because of the host... :)
Thank you so much ❤ Today I did my first clean watching your video. Every step went right and my PS5 is alive and clean 😂

Glad to see the 30 screws are completely necessary for this console
FINALLY someone is telling me what I need to hear!
Watching your videos is therapeutic
I’m still scared to do all these on my own. Particularly, unplugging the connectors.
You forgot to mention BW-100's unique super power: it doesn't conduct electricity, so it's safe for things like phones that can't easily have power removed! Thanks again, and best wishes.
god i hope you make it through and get healthy again! you have saved me so many times dude in how to do stuff i truly hope you get well soon!.

Thanks for the video, I hope you are doing well !!
I would like to see this with an original Xbox One because I have an almost 10 year old Xbox that I still use that has NEVER been taken apart.
Nice guide Steve!😊
I just bought a PS5 slim :)
Great cleaning tutorial! Thank You.
Hope you're doing well mate! Always love your content. Stay strong 💪 🤘.
Can you please do more of these types of videos with other consoles? Maybe some retro ones like a ps2! Love your channel❤
Get well soon. Greetings from Croatia.
It'll be awesome if we have the same tutorial for the Series X/S! But that aside, You are the GOAT, Steve! We all love and care for you! I really hope that your sicness is only a Chapter and we still have you for a long time :T
What type of torx screw did you use? because I got some but they just don’t grab the screw?
Great video the step by step guide method was amazing to watch 🎊 I enjoyed it.
Bless you Steve!! You do some great work here.
Thanks for the video sir ! ❤ hope you’re doing great and keep pushing baby!
Hey Steve, I noticed on your Flooded Mountain Dew Xbox video at the 2:44 timestamp there's some trace damage on the xbox motherboard right above your flux syringe. Not sure what those traces are for but thought you'd might like to know
There must be something wrong with me. I don't own a playstation, nor do I know anyone who owns a playsataion and yet I watched this whole video.
I can’t seem to be able to pop it off, is it me overthinking it? because it feels like it’s gonna snap
This is exactly me but it won’t snap I finally took the chance earlier but it will sound like it but it won’t snap off
You're overthinking it. Once you do it for the first time. It becomes kinda fun to take them off.
Another great video!! Hope you are doing well. Best wishes.
Great video 😊
Get well soon Steve! I hope you are doing ok.
OFC You read my mind. I was just thinking about cleaning ours the other day. Kids have it on 24 / 7 so its gotta look like a damn dust bowl on the inside.
I hope that everything is ok with you ❤ take care man
How often should I clean it
Depends on how dirty it gets. If you notice dust on the outside then it needs to be cleaned.
Hey Bud great video as always. How are feeling by the way. I hope everything is going okay🙏
Hope you're doing well man!
Thank tou very much, my ps5 really needed it.
Very helpful! Thank you
11:27 when I was removing it, I rip off the gray part 😢
same is there anything i can do ?

What a monster power supply man..
do you have a site where you resell everything that you've repaired?
Do I have a PS5? No
Am I watching and learning? Yes I am
And that's how you clean your PS5 Slim. Nice.
Where can I buy the alcohol thing you have that lets you push down and get some on the cloth??? Thank -You my friend
Great video!!! You always do a detailed video!!!
May I ask why you don't use microfiber cloths? For dust removal on the metal heatsink and heat shield?
I lost the little adhesive sticker that you need to remove for pulling the fan plug out....is it a problem?
Do you think there us any benefit to cooling if the fan covers is left off?
Wonderful and useful video. Can you do 1 for show how to clean an old ps3? Thanks for your contents!
