@@TCRSCircuit wow nice work on that. Yeah i found your channel when i saw the xray video and was like this guy knows his stuff! Keep up the awesome work!
I got one lenovo to life, it had a big burn thru all layers. Cleared the burn area and got problems with power button, charging light and screen backlight. Had to run wires for backlight and power button but hey, laptop seems to work ok, well with dead usb3 port and two usb-c ports. Only one usb3 port remaining, but its enough.
Hey Tim am I correct in assuming that where the board internally shorted there was no vital traces below which is why you were able to dig in that area?
Well, the part isn't important. Just a simple decoupling capacitor. This board had a 6 layer internal short. Exposing that area to more heat putting it back is far more risky than leaving that capacitor off. This was for data recovery only.
Hey Tim congrats on your continued success not only in your repair business but also teaching others to do the same!!
It was olways a pleasure to see your video .
Great stuff ! first time ive see someone atempt this. Usually they just give it a no fix and move on.
I've done it many times.... this one in this link was worse... th-cam.com/video/0_WgZtuTokw/w-d-xo.html

I think 15C blade is good to remove board layers. Try it some times.

Correct.
very nice job! i have learned so much the from your videos. i was wondering what do you use (program) when your saving the data.
Target disk mode..
@@TCRSCircuit cool thnx
Great work! I just knew that board was a done for it. Thanks 😎
watching you do the impossible inspires me. what is your success rate with removing shorts this way?
Depends on where the short is honestly.
I love watching u fix things, but I'm annoyed when you say part aren't important.
