Thanks you. Background music would more distract me while I'm troubleshooting. For monotone works like placing hunderts of solderballs on an ic, I sometimes hear podcasts with handphones. So it doesn't appear in my videos. I have some donor boards for parts. Sometimes I prepare some ics in advance.
@stentofix thanks again , I have a reflow unit but my experience on APU is limited ,however I will try and reflow to see if it comes back to life , if not I may even try a relball if it fails ,will keep you updated and perhaps we could put a signature on that error 👍
The HDMI ic costs atm aprox 40€ itself. And the customer desides not to put more money in this repair. After reflow the HDMI ic, I tested the caps, filters and HDMI port. All fine. There is an output at 480p in safe mode but when resolution changed to 720p or 1080p the screen stays black. If the customer would have agreed to continue, I would have changed the HDMI ic. But it is always a risk if a board has privious repair attemps and could end up in a rabbit hole.
I appreciate your videos. I wonder if you have come a cross this, UART shows DRR4 issue. Is this near the ssd controller above as only 1 there. I understand ps5 has DDR6 not DDR4? What is your take on this. Can this DDR4 be changed from another board or game over? Can you change 1 RaM with other the make from diffent ps5 board. I have seen people changing them with same Ram. It so not clear whether this can be done.
Thank you. The one single chip for the SSD controller is a DDR4 and the eight main RAM ics for the APU are GDDR6. You can replace every single RAM ics with one from a donor board. The only thing the eight GDDR6 RAMs must be the same brand/type and can't be mixed.
Top Video. 👌 Ich hab mal ne Frage: Ich habe mir auch WEETOOLS und nen Programmer besorgt. Leider erkennt mein PC nicht den Serial Port USB. wenn ich aber den WINBOND direkt auflöte und mit dem Programmer in den USB packe dann kann ich den chip auslesen. Also Programmer funktioniert. Hast du noch nen Treiber oder so für WEETOOLS installieren müssen damit er erkannt wird? Danke schonmal im Vorraus😅 😅😅
Wenn der Programmer nicht zum Aulesen des WINBOND Chips sondern zur Kommunikation mit der Southbridge genutzt werden soll, muss der Programmer auf TTL umgestellt werden. Beim CH341A ist auf der Seite ein Jumper der von 1-2 auf 2-3 gesteckt werden müsste. Dann sollte es mit der Com über RX/TX funktioniren.
@@stetofix Saugeil für deine schnelle Antwort. Werde ich morgen gleich mal ausprobieren. 👍 Bin übrigens jetzt schon gespannt auf ein neues Video von dir. 😎 Vielleicht kannst du ja ein paar Temperaturen in dein Video packen.

@stetofix, Would you be so kind as to provide a link for the programmer and did you buy the programmer with the 3.3v fix or did you perform the fix yourself? Thank you. :)

@stentofix , just a quick update re my last question after playing with the board a bit I found that if the Apu clamp was released it would stay in BLOD so i conclude that the problem is the APU as on reapplying the the clamp the iboard will boot to white but then turn to pulsing blue. and abit of a query about the Uart rtc if you know , I was reading inthe forum that there should be a time stamp after every error is that correct, did you manage to find out if thats correct if not is the southbridge at fault thanks in advance 👍
It sounds like a reballing for the APU is needed to fix the contact problem. Yes, the second row after the eight digit error number is the time stamp. If the battery is taken off, the time stamp will always starts at 00000000.
@stentofix , thanks , can I ask,is it possible to get error code with no timestamp but with attached good battery ,which sounds contradictory , but would indicate some fault relating the the southbridge tks
Yes, it is possible to get errors with no time stamp. I just saw some error codes with no time stamps. (gbatemp.net/threads/ps5-uart-commands.642741/post-10342695) They are all Exxxxxxx errors and may indicate problems with southbridge or nor, as you wrote.
It is an old version of 'Mechaniker IX5 max mini'. I like this method very much, because I struggled in the beginning very much at reballing Switch SoCs with magnetic holder and solder paste or solder balls. So I tried placing the solder balls with a stencil, take the stencil off and place the ic on that hot plate. Now I'm using this method for mostly all bigger ics.
@@stetofix nice. I use to struggle with the stencils before, but my main struggle now is using hot air to get the balls to flow. Most times they move because of the airflow, and get merged. Too low of an airflow and it takes too long, too high and the balls move around. I will try the hot plate method. Thanks!
Please, can you explain to me what I need to start the UART, I have a CH341A, I know how to connect GND, RX and TX, jumper to the second and third pin. What do I need from the program, do I need to pay anything, is there a tutorial for it, any help would be great, thanks?

Hi like your videos very informative , have been playing with Uart but none of my error codes seem to match anything that I have found . Have been following J D tech and I was wondering where to find the SSD ram chart that shows me what chips I can change 2 on one side 1on the other perhaps you could help tks

Hi again thanks for the info I have used uart to guide and get error “80C00140” according to your excellent List it is APU Freeze and Referes to DDR 6 Can you clarify it is ram replacement ,not APU . Many thanks for your help👍👍
'80C00140 APU Freeze (No Response) - GDDR6 data line problem (replace)' refers to a data line problem between APU and GDDR6 RAM ics. But I don't kown if the com is interrupted at the APU or and one of the GDDR6 RAM ics. From my point of view, it could be a broken trace/solderball under the APU or one of the GDDR6 RAM ics.
@@stetofixthats cool yes ,I am unsure too. Will probably go for a ram reflow to see it it makes any difference . Many tks for the reply looking forward to your next video
Sad, I feel for you, I had a dead PS5, fixed the power supply and it was still dead, replaced the southbridge and it worked. I thought that was it but the console won't update, now I'm waiting for the SSD controller, I think that's the problem. I've never done a UART check on a PS5, I have a CH341A, maybe I could do that too. Basically, I wish us better luck next time 🙂
Thank you. I hope that new SSD controller will solve the update issue. 'fingers crossed' With UART I added more informations to a case. Not allways usefull, but sometimes like in this case pinpointing the defect exactly.

Is the HDMI IC really that expensive? Also, have you checked filters on HDMI lines and capacitors around IC for shorts?
The HDMI ic costs atm aprox 40€ itself. And the customer desides not to put more money in this repair. After reflow the HDMI ic, I tested the caps, filters and HDMI port. All fine.
