Hi mate, Really enjoyed the video and congrats on the repair. I would love to send my ps5 with the same issue for you to have a look at. Already sent to various techs around London with no luck. Kind regard
The components underneath the chip at 5:42 are caps not resistors. At 6:18 the holes in the board are for via stitching for thermal or high current/power reasons. They are also quite likely blind vias (not all the way through) and connecting to a layer/plane/copper pour. At 6:41 you have to be careful and quantify the resistance to ground. Lots of modern boards can have circuits that are very low resistance normally. Especially cpu/apu/gpu vcore for example. Cool about the powersupply. It will definitely come in handy. The big bank of inductors 8:50 are likely a bunch of phases for APU and would only be powered when the console is on. At 10:51 interesting that you found a short there was there a inductor output that was shorted? Checking each large inductor on the board you will basically be covering each rail. At 11:03 the fuse blew because too much current went through it. Likely the shorted capacitor caused a large current to flow through the fuse. If you find something hot that is in line/series/feeding other stuff then likely the short is further up in something that is connected between a power rail and ground. In this case the dead fuse is a clue that something on that rail is shorted. Good idea to inject power on the other side of the open fuse. Nice find with the isopropyl alcohol trick. Did the fuse any markings on it? Congrats on the fix.
The man with all the knowledge! Thank you again for taking the time to share. I didn't find any shorts on any inductors. I mean I may have tested one incorrectly or miss tested on! It actually took over 2 hours testing all loads of different stuff with the IPA before I found it. Even when I did find it I didn't think it was going to work because it would only dissove faster with the slightest amount of IPA. I'm sure if I had a thermal camera it would have been really obvious. Thanks again mate 🙌🙌
Incredible video man, I am always looking for new tech repair channels to watch so it was great luck that I found yours. I am brand new to tech repair so watching people start out as well is very motivational. Keep up the phenomenal work man, I cant wait to see more videos and how your channel grows.
Well done young man. That’s why we do this stuff, I was getting that same omg feeling wen it powered on as I knew it was fine wen the blue light was pulsing
Well done mate that was an amazing fix. So glad i found your channel its nice to see someone who is new to this game of repairing things and have a sucess. I myself am a nooby when it comes to repairs but just need confidence to record and upload to youtube. Keep up the good work kidda 👍👍
Thanks man! Obviously I'm not a shining example of success but you've got one life and if it's something you want to do then just go for it! You don't even have to show your face. There are thousands of successful channel where people don't show their faces 😃
NO.... FREAKING.... WAY! LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Amazing Dwayne! I cannot belive it. Fantastic. Amazing what a bit of perseverance and logical thinking can result in. Fault finding seemed to be of the charts. No clue about micro soldering and when it comes to efficiency IDK since it's your first time and I reckon you spent a bit of time on it. Well done!
Thanks 😃 That would be great! Not so keen on giving away my address haha. Is it possible to send to a locker privately? I'm bot sure! Drop me an email if you can? It's in the about section 👍👍
Hey! I gotta question. What type of camera do you use just starting out? Im wanting to get one but all the channels i sub to use $900 cameras. I work in mental health and im not paying that much for a hobby lol.
I just use my phone for the moment. I'm looking at getting a camera in the new year but they cost a bomb! I also use a digital microscope for the micro stuff on the PCB's.
Thanks man, just checked out your vid. Nice to see another viewers face! Comments are turned off? Also, flip your phone to horizontal mode while recording long form videos :) and portrait if recording YT shorts. Looking forward to seeing some of your repairs!

I have the exact same problem with my ps5. Please can tell me where i can get it fixed?
Im based in the uk.

Thanks bro, it's comments like these that keep me going 🙏🙏🙏
Well done young man. That’s why we do this stuff, I was getting that same omg feeling wen it powered on as I knew it was fine wen the blue light was pulsing
I find it crazy to think i fixed it XD

Thanks for the hype 🙌🙌🙌 so bloody proud of this one 😁😁
@@PainfulDwayne You should be ^^. Your reaction was priceless. Looking forward to seeing what's next in your journey! :)
Well done Dwayne,
great fix and you're learning as you go.
Thanks man. Relly enjoyed working on the PS5. Hopefully I can grab another on at a decent price
@ I’m too nervous just yet to try something as new
I’ll stick to my Xbox one s for now
Just done a hdmi port swap
They're fun to work on and nice and cheap. I'd like to get one with a power issue and see if I can solve that
@@PainfulDwayne I try and keep away from the no power ones (especially beep on beep off) they’re a minefield!
Congrats great fix
Thanks man!
Congrats on the fix!
I can send fuses if needed, assuming you’re in the UK?
Thanks 😃 That would be great! Not so keen on giving away my address haha. Is it possible to send to a locker privately? I'm bot sure! Drop me an email if you can? It's in the about section 👍👍
@@PainfulDwayneI can absolutely do that for you
@@phoneopsplus wow thanks! drop me an email 😊
Nice 1 dwayne
Thanks man, still riding the high from this one 🙌🙌🙌

The Cod3r on youtube offers repair service and he's the PS5 man in the UK. Really knows his stuff.
@PainfulDwayne thanks mate, I'll try to get in touch with him. 👍
Make videos on the PS4 Controller, Joy-Con, and Wiimote!
I will do at some point 🙌
Omg get in there I would of been bouncing round the house
Still in shock now 😱
Hope u don't mind but I've give u a quick shout out on my first video
Thanks man, just checked out your vid. Nice to see another viewers face! Comments are turned off? Also, flip your phone to horizontal mode while recording long form videos :) and portrait if recording YT shorts. Looking forward to seeing some of your repairs!
Think I've sorted coments now
