I paid a whopping £4 for this Paw Patrol toy car thing. Don't know why. Anyway, it apparently doesn't work, so let's test that out and fix it. Maybe. Hope you enjoy! Steve
Nicely done! My 7 year old daughter saw "Paw Patrol" in the description and since she's a big Paw Patrol fan she wanted to see it, and since you asked who wanted it my daughter says she loves to have it! 😂 So... pretty please? 🤣😂
I really only come here to benefit from Steve's expertise. Button doesn't work : 'I think that's going to be a button problem'. It's like watching Sherlock Holmes at work😂
Short vid but good as the rest, Dave needs a companion beside him maybe one of those dead spiders you find in older dusty toys? But I do have a request could you find a non working voice activated R2-D2 that's from 2002 it's good sized about 15 to 16 inches tall, I'm asking cause I'll be acquiring one and would love to see and learn how it's fixed. Thx stezstix and try not to burn anymore plastic bits
Great video, gotta love the cheap fixes. I best not show my 5 year old son this. His birthday in a week and he will want it, He wants everything Paw Patrol 🤣😂
When you lift components like that using an iron you need to be careful abut how much you lift the first side. When you bent it back like that, after getting the first 2 legs off their pads, I commented out loud that you may have damaged the pad(s). Only to see it and the trace pulling up seconds later. It happens to all of us, I've definitely learned the hard way before
I see you have crabs. Because a pill bug is not a bug, it's actually a crustacean. A little land crab. Even featured in A Bugs Life. How's that for a plot twist?
Dave is clearly a sleeping policeman and was therefore unharmed. One thing which may help in future is that this style of switch is usually linked internally between the horizontal pins, so at 5:06 you could have soldered the link just to the top left switch pin.
Why not just use flux and hot air to remove the faulty button? It's surface mount, after all. Doesn't matter if you melt the plastic as the old switch is going straight in the bin anyway.
I didn't know which comment to go for, so you get a two-for-one deal on this comment. Is this just you gearing up to filming a slightly larger blue car restoration? :D or Dave's like a tiny wizard with a protective bubble spell around him, laughing at the mortals.
Good video dude. I watch all 3 of your channels and have a massive request. I'm trying to find someone who can make a video on how to mod a retron 3 av(hyper beach) to HDMI... I don't want to use a converter and really think theirs a way to mod it
Nicely done! My 7 year old daughter saw "Paw Patrol" in the description and since she's a big Paw Patrol fan she wanted to see it, and since you asked who wanted it my daughter says she loves to have it! 😂 So... pretty please? 🤣😂
I was going to say that! 😂 But since you were first on the ball, I let you have it 😂
Harry's daughter to get the paw patrol thing gets my vote... because he's at the top of the comments.
Awww make it so. That would be a nice outcome to this video.
In agreement, please do a follow up to this
YES!
I'm a lead animator on the paw patrol series and i've been watching your channel for a few years so this is a nice surprise 😄
I really only come here to benefit from Steve's expertise. Button doesn't work : 'I think that's going to be a button problem'. It's like watching Sherlock Holmes at work😂
Poor Dave ran over by the cops
5:53 We've LITERALLY just flown back from Barbados back to Phoenix, Az on vacation!
The music brought back memories..
This is a great example of a "easy" fix of something that would normally ended up in the thrash.
Time to reset the melted plastic counter again…
Great fix !
7:31 This is the lamest episode of Battlebots I've ever seen.
Yea but once Dave enters the arena...
He enjoys it
I feared for poor Dave’s safety
😆 he's alive and well
@@StezStixMixwell not really alive😂😂😂
He is incased in impenetrable armour. He is invincible and will likely last longer than us.
Dave lives forever in our hearts.
How is this comment from 4 days ago when the video came out 5 hours ago?
Nice 56-point-turn.
and this is why i like watching you steve over others as you do random items like this
ooooh you melted plastic you need to reset your flip chart lol
It doesn't count if it's a broken part he's removing
@@thadofalltrades he was soldering it back on !
You'll need to CHASE that round the room 😂
Stupid Paw Patrol thing!
he couldn't make himself say it because its cool, its good to be a big kid again and have fun
Disappointed there was no song to skip at the beginning of the video.
If it goes to court, I'm prepared to say that I saw Dave rioting. 😂
Dave is unaffected. That's a clear win for Dave!
Music good. Those buttone are connected on the switch internally.
For keeping the tactile switch flush with the board, it might have been better to put the wire on top of the pins, using a U shape to reach both pins.
I'm guessing that this was another late night inebriated ebay purchase.
Is there any other kind of eBay purchase?
That's kids for you
This is my 4yos favorite video you've ever done
I lost it when the plate disappeared from the switch and your comment. You need a "Well i cant find it " counter.
Hopefully you make more from the video that you paid for the Paw Patrol car. LOL
Me and my 5yr old have recently began watching ur vids... an unhealthy amount, in fact! I'm sure he would love your paw patrol thing!
I've picked up a couple of nice microwave ovens on fb for free and have repaired them, thanks for the inspiration.
You need change the melted plastic counter to broken trace counter....🤣
Short vid but good as the rest, Dave needs a companion beside him maybe one of those dead spiders you find in older dusty toys?

For those small solder joints, i use fluxed desoldering braid,works good,and you dont need to pull too hard ,to get this Switches off the Board.
2:32 Look at that hang nail...
Love watching your videos - out of interest what microscope do you use?
Well done.
Since it's a kids toy you deserve a pint of zero percent Scrumpy and some sherbet dip.
I would have watched this happily on your main channel :)
@6:03 melted plastic counter reset 😂
Impressive work Steve,. Good repair done...
Thanks to watching your videos I decided to take up soldering as a hobby and have already repaired my first broken electronic
Might be time to get some decent console repairs on the go Ste. Plenty of sega CDs out there in need of a decent hot air gun.
0:49 😂 I spit on my phone just now..
Flip the controller and it'll STILL go in the same direction.. Short vid so it'll be fixed..
You had me at WOOF :)
I'm glad my two kids just reach the Not a fan of of Paw Patrol any more club. That and Peppa Pig.
Amen. Although you'll do well to prevent them becoming Fortnite zombies
Great video, gotta love the cheap fixes. I best not show my 5 year old son this. His birthday in a week and he will want it, He wants everything Paw Patrol 🤣😂

Good fix as standard thanks Steve 😊
This whole video is woof! 😆
I see you have crabs. Because a pill bug is not a bug, it's actually a crustacean. A little land crab. Even featured in A Bugs Life. How's that for a plot twist?
Nice fix!
That soldering music was....something....!
Do you need decent faulty electronics to fix ?
your posting less often... I need my FIX!
Funny, right before you pitted Paw Patrol vs Dave, iIwas thinking, "Dave must have something to say about this situation".
Oh I just noticed the shirt after reading a comment, I know I've seen it before, but I'm wearing mine today too :)
Dave is clearly a sleeping policeman and was therefore unharmed. One thing which may help in future is that this style of switch is usually linked internally between the horizontal pins, so at 5:06 you could have soldered the link just to the top left switch pin.
Sleeping policeman, not heard that term in years lol. Much better than a speed bump.
I thought you'd play out on 'push my button' by Sugarbabes
Why not just use flux and hot air to remove the faulty button? It's surface mount, after all. Doesn't matter if you melt the plastic as the old switch is going straight in the bin anyway.
Stop buying crap. Its an addiction, admit it.
I can hear your mains hum in this video.
No melted plastic either!
Just watched this with our 3 year old and she's driving another version of this (the red dog marshall) she will buy it from you 😂 let us know
Collect 'm all!
Woof woof!!
Well you should only get exited if it’s Marshall! I have it on good authority from my grandson!
Nice music for a Patrol Thing (?)
What type of solder iron are you using
The button wasn't working is because it was soaked in the original flux so you could have soaked it in alcohol and then it would have probably worked.
Yr just a big kid at heart eh Steve 😅😅
It's okay Steve, we all know why you bought it :)
Nice
Return it to the seller as not described, it works, seller described as not working 😅
donate it some kid will love that
I have plenty of faulty electronics you can fix if you want
Love the shirt!
CUTE hi
GG
nice Tshirt.. you fight like a dairy farmer.
This one had burned plastic written all over it but it suprised me.
I snorted right along with you!
I didn't know which comment to go for, so you get a two-for-one deal on this comment.
Is this just you gearing up to filming a slightly larger blue car restoration? :D
or
Dave's like a tiny wizard with a protective bubble spell around him, laughing at the mortals.
Hi Steve could you mend my Action Man helicopter because if you can fix a Paw Patrol thingy…….
Can you invest in a steadycam please.
Early midlife thing 🤔🤪
That's what she said?
That was paw
Melted plastic counter? 6:00
That's solder.
😂😅😂😅😂😅
Well this was like watching a rerun of “Let watch paint dry” on a Friday night 🫠
It's Friday?
@@technoman9000 lol 😂 in my mind it is
where's the rap ???
😀
Going left or right is heavily overrated...
Good video dude.
I watch all 3 of your channels and have a massive request.
I'm trying to find someone who can make a video on how to mod a retron 3 av(hyper beach) to HDMI...
I don't want to use a converter and really think theirs a way to mod it
Steve your a poor ref Dave clearly won!!!!
Stupid paw patrol......thing 🤣
Stupid paw patrol.
I would've gave it to some random kid
