    This help me a lot since I kinda forgot what I’ve learn in the past I guess haha…easiest explanation and demonstration..thanks!
    I watch couple of your videos (because I just discovered this channel by chance) and I’m quite frustrated on why did this channel didn’t boomed yet with all the quality content shown here huhu😭😭😭

    well I was really hoping to see some of the sayings on resistor codes here, but, no luck.... lol I did learn a neat way to check a resistor when it is open, and burnt, or discolored really bad. if you scratch off the ceramic coating to get to the coils inside, you should be able to read the resistor or at least half of the resistor to determine the value of it. That is a good way to find out especially if you don't have schematics to follow. great video again.

    Mosfets totally confuse me a video on them would be awesome, what used for, what's source drain gate etc ? Especially in laptops

    • @BuyitFixit
      @BuyitFixit  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      They are similar to transistors (see pt4), Gate is similar to the Base on a transistor (the signal to switch it) and the Source, is usually the Source of the power, and the Drain is where it Drains to when its switched on.

      Resistors don't have a polarity, installing either way is fine.

    Should all resistors have continuity?

    • @BuyitFixit
      @BuyitFixit  ปีที่แล้ว

      If you mean with like a beep on a multimeter, no. If the resistance is too high then it won't register. Like a 10 ohm or 100 ohm resistor would beep, but a 10M ohm would not. Hope that help!

    Hello I have a cordless drill charger, there’s power going to it but the led’s on the charger don’t light up nor does it charge my battery, it’s a tiny board with one small resistor resistor I’ve measured that and it reads 00.5,as the board is so small there’s nothing else to check, is resistor bad or anything else I can check a new charger is quite expensive.if I can repair this that would help great.
    The colours on the resistor are Black,Brown,GreenSilver and Brown.

    What if there is a continuity on a resistor when you test it with a multimeter

    • @BuyitFixit
      @BuyitFixit  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Depends on the value of the resistor, a 10 Ohm resistor would show continuity on a multimeter yet a 10K probably wouldn't.

      It depends where the colours are so 220 ohm would be RED, RED, and BROWN ( which means 1 zero)

    When I measure ohm by fluke, it starts with a big number then goes down to a number. Why it does that? (e.g starts with 315.7 ohm then decrement down to 150 ohm)

      Not 100% on that. Is the meter working ok? Accurate? Have you tried a different set of leads ?
