Novation LAUNCHPAD Mini | No POWER & Damaged USB | Let's FIX It!
StezStix Fix? youtube channel
he fixed it same board
Launchpad mini, U5 is a Voltage reg that feeds the 3v6 so more than likely a 5v reg allowing for the circuitry inline, Remove L3 to bypass it. usb incoming power from Vbus, GND from DGND to feed a off board 3.6v reg, 3.6 feeds into 3V6
Looking at the board again, it looks like an LDO adjustable reg
Found it, it's a USB to 3.6v buck circuit U5 is an iD8242 R21, and R22 as a voltage divider with C21 cap for the adjust/fb
sometimes, even if you cant find a schematic, you can get lucky and find an image of the board, to see what a missing component is
The pokedex display connector is a zebra connector, similar to those used in standard 1602 lcd displays - they need to be pressed down really firmly and are held by metal tags on lcd displays - so maybe it would be worth trying a bit of extra pressure on the zebra strip while testing the device?
The "click" of a hard drive is usually the sound, when the power turns off and the head(s) slam back to the parking position. The volume depends on the vendor.
I'm sad for you, bcs your getting bad items now, but keep doing your videos. They're inspiring. I used to work at a repair shop when I was 14-16 years old and I used to love it. Life put me on other path, but today I'm 37 years old. And bcs of your videos, I'm buying the tools to go back repairing electronics
Appreciate it. Don't be sad for me, if I didn't enjoy it I wouldn't do it 😊 It's comments like this that make me love it, so thankyou!
Because he’s getting paid through sponsors and TH-cam… so he’ll gain back his money he loses.
@@Ladiesman2I77 We all know that, but he became like everyone's "friend" that we're cheering for him. The guy is a hard worker and he has the gift of being good in speech
This income stream is better than the repairs on eBay it’s safe to say! :)
Your persistence is inspiring. Keep up the great work. Wins are definitely coming.
For the second item
Check the lcd voltage pin.
For the 3rd item Check the ic data sheet
If the ic shows it’s a 3.3v ic
Then any 5v to 3.3 transistors will work
When I can't find schematics for a board I try to look up replacement boards or find pretty much anything on Google that shows me a picture of that board. And then I try zooming in and seeing if I can find the parts that I'm looking for. Anything's better than nothing
The fact the the power supply on the PS5 was dead and when that was switched out you see a different fault makes me VERY suspicious that the unit is made from different broken consoles.
The LCD connector on the Pokedex is a zebra connector. They were used in the original Game N Watch handhelds, and, for some reason, some robot vacuum docks.

I have the same Pokedex, you need both batteries in it to work. There is some 5V logic chips I am sure, that will need both batteries connected.
For the PS4, that seems to be a 6-second blue light of death, from what I know from videos, that’s usually caused due to the solder balls under the southbridge ic.
I know it's been a while since I commented it's good to see you still enjoying and loving what you do it really inspires me.
Hey man keep going Joe. I’m learning from you either way. I’m going to start trying to fix things. Just got a place sorted after a few years kinda living in my car but can’t wait to be taking things apart and trying to fix them. Long time sub to your channel btw. Keep up the good work 👌
Joey, U5 is a 5 pin mosfet marked ID8242.
Hi Joey remember I said I had a strange 1 with a ps4 few weeks back it had the same problem as this 1 monitor the board with your ir cam when its powering up before switching itself off. I found a cap glowing but the strange thing was it was testing good in and out of circuit
Last item you should be able to figure out the transistor you need buy checking the datasheet of the ic next to it if it connects to it
The dohicky on the Pokémon gadget is called a "Zebra Strip" i had a Nokia 3210 which showed nothing on the screen, i believe i cleaned it with IPA ans reasembled it with extra force and now it works absolutely flawlessly no issues
And it works by having hundreds of separate parallel paths for electricity. Each pin on the board has multiple channels touching it. The alignment of the screen with the board is essential so that the connections go to the right places.
Great video!! The screen on the pokedex is the same as on a BEO4 remote from B&o Nice :)
You'll Repair the next ones! Great video and attempted repairs! Thank You. 🙂
The music board thing.. could be a voltage suppressor??
Man, seeing that Pokedex immediately took me back. I forgot about that thing.
you need to reball the apu. i believe this is a 6 second blod. wich mean that the apu and the ram chips cannot comunicate whit each other. i have many of that repaired with a reball. i can purchase from you if you want. i could try to make a video on it
I am watching your videos and trying to learn electronics repair too! I am studying for technical specialist in vehicles and I want to expand that to electronics for my hobby, I cannot tell you how many stuff ive broken while trying to fix it! 🤣 1 Macbook, 1 Acer laptop, a fujitsu laptop and more lol. Making it worse than it was before i bought it. just letting you know that sometimes people have a little bad luck but it will all turn out fine in the end. Keep posting bro. I love your videos. I hope that one day I will have the same knowledge as you.
The silicone carbon pad (Zebra strip) on the Pokemon thing can be removed carefully and cleaned on both sides
APU gone on PS4 reball only option sorry dude. You could try the washer technique but that's not for resell
I think someone tried jailbreak/manipulate the firmware of that ps4 and failed/bricked it, since everything else seems fine.
I think U5 is part of the USB to 3.6V buck regulator circuit. Its a 1D8242 5 pin device Pin 1 is Vin, 2 GND, 3 Enable, 4 FB and 5 Switch....
JDT would you be interested in a tv repair. it has power but wont display. as far as i can see it is all ok including the LCD
One of the Pins of the missing transistor may be connected to ground via a resistor, so the
grounds polarity will provide a clue as to what type of transistor "NPN or PNP" would be
used, to save costs manufactures use the same transistors, so take a look around on the
circuit board and see if you can locate any other transistor and see if you can get another
one to see if it will fire up the unit, if it fires up make sure the transistor is operating around
the same temperature as the other transistor, and if it is and the unit works, you may do a
quick dance, lick your finger and stroke the air notching up a win for a miniscule profit.
If no transistor can be found on board at least try a NPN or PNP that will fit there..
APU 👁👉👍👈
Have you never seen a Zebra strip, most vintage LCDs use them, ultra common when i did my training many moons ago
I have one of those Pokedex's still.. when I dig it out depending on it's condition, I may make it in to a computer
Joey talk to the coder or tronics fix for some of your problems so u can come back to the stuff u haven't be able to fix and see if they can help
Nice video Joey. Let's go for green in the next video!
U5 is an id8242 on the usb vbus to 3.6v buck controller
I had a losing streak this month I noticed you don't use washers to tighten the apu to test if apu is faulty
I don't understand why there are constant screws missing after someone's tried a repair. They came out, put them back in!! What did they do?? Unscrew them and then throw them across the room??
Look at the reference designator U5 that is an IC not transistor. Might a linear regulator.
Would it make sense on that ps4 to inject voltage and check for hot spots?
Good content as always Joey - couple of suggestions. The DJ board - if they are inexpensive, buy a working one to find out what the blown component on yours is, then sell it again. For the PS4 I would take a hard look at the thermals... they are very sensitive, so use a GOOD paste and GOOD thermal pads on all those chips around it (8 each side)... I also found that using thermal pads too thick was a bad idea, so go for 0.8 mm or 0.5 to get everything contacting well.
I had the same Pokedex a long time ago. It need both batteries otherwise it dosent work.
I have a launchpad mini. Is there some way to message and I can get photo’s sent and details of what part you need?
I was about to buy a ps4 pro for €100 last week, with the exactly same problem at this ps4 you have. But I gave up bcs I don't have enough time, experience or spare boards to try to replace the components like the ram for example...
Bring the pokedex to the Channel is really nice and exclusive but OMFG a lauchpad? NICE 🎉 haha!!!
Pd: Last week i was thinking about buy this lauchpad model but sadly i chose the piano keyboard 😅
WE GOT A SPONSOR !!!LETS GO JOEY....
who needs ubereats when you have a Joey Teleportation Device (patent pending)
you've been having bad luck with consoles, maybe there is some other item that would resell well?
Joey do you have your own repair website now then? Just wondering as I would love to use your services in the future and recommend you 😁😁
I know you can do this joey.
Unusual EBay ltems. Can. We. Fix. Them ? Profit. Or Loss. S1ES 36
You can just plug the 5v line into the board the test the 12v 🙏 or you can figure out which wire to jump, but if you get it wrong you short it so plugging into board is safer 😂
Ask how i know
Another beep on beep off? The bad luck continues.. the next one will be a fix. For sure!
Joey ..keep the faith.....that's why its called gambling...but eventually we'll beat the house!
PS4 could be the southbridge
hi joey try typing : MAIN MIDI PCB BOARD - NOVATION - LAUNCHPAD and good luck
The more videos I watch the less sure I'm if this is serious or a parody of all the repair YT channels.
You’re not letting us down buddy. Luck will change
Don't loose hope Joey you got this !!!!!!!!!
Don't despair it won't still be like that, I hope that profits will follow the next video. I wish you the best of luck. Your work is so inspiring.
Thankyou, I really appreciate the kind words :)
Time to buy something easy to fix to get the moral up
Love the community in these comments. Everyone is so supportive of you and want you to succeed
This is a wind up yeah?
Yeh those power supply need 4.8v enabled to test for 12v
Weirdly enjoy these videos 😂 but what would be interesting is if you tried fixing console controllers like ps4/5 or xbox, is something I'd like to see trying to attempt to fix consoles is slightly scary 😂 whole soldering and whatnot, hopefully you won't you lose much money 😂
Its such a shame that someone wouldnt know that the playstation they're selling has a blue light of death
There's no way you've never seen a zebra connector
Always learning :)
@@JoeyDoesTech hopefully you get out of your slump soon Good luck bud!
Another good tip.
We in germany have the pcb solder.
I think he learnd this work.
I dont see a bether worker on youtube.
Ask him ,when you have a ps4 with no Chance.
We are all Humans.
We must work together.not vs🤷🏻♂️.
Thats what i think

StezStix Fix? youtube channel
he fixed it same board
Good old Steve!
Hi Joey i have a Xbox one from a friend in pieces he moved house and didn’t want it and end up to me i can send it to you if you need it for free maybe its an easy fix and you can make some money on it .
I think you've been at a disadvantage because sellers have been dishonest, misleading or outright lying. It's a shame but we all think you're doing great. Most importantly, you're entertainment is. And your TH-cam skill has improved by leaps and bounds as well
. Cheers
The screen is broke
i do not warch ads even skip embedded ads
Your content is great! Sucks that you've hit a strike of bad items, hope you hit something good soon!
Ask stezsfix he fix a beat pad a year ago if he's still got it
