That’s my board! Thank you so much Alex not only did you save my board but you saved me thousands in truck repairs that would have been required if I didn’t get it back!! Thank you!
Cool job bro
How did you break it off so clean without ripping various pads off - that’s an amazing feat by itself (either that or the soldering with extremely weak and brittle).
@@nilomyki i live in Las Vegas and it was on my dash so I think the heat played a part in it. I went to change the screen and it just fell off.
We should support right to repair. These kinds of boards will never be saved by manufacturers. They'd want us to buy a new device.
@@roseelectronics4582 this company no longer exist.
I appreciate you calling out the hot air temps you used in this video. I wish you did that all the time
I love that smile when the repair is successful, love your channel, keep up the great work!
Satisfaction he loves it.. i
These connectors are really sensitive to heat! Thanks for sharing the video, it's a good reference for anyone who needs to learn the process (or encouragement to overcome the fear)
thx for the tutorial, learned a lot new stuff about FPC connector (de)soldering!
You do meticulous and quality work. I'm so glad I found this channel.
You're techniques is amazing! I was giving up on repairs. I'm not as nearly good as you but I'm certainly better then the others in my town thanks to you!
Absolutely love your videos, I’m in the U.k Wolverhampton. God bless you guys, doing a great job. Thank you ❤️ Ravi
20 min video !! Thank you Alex, allah yahfadhak
❤️
It's Hussain not Alex
Its always nice to see your vids, there is always a new information I learn in your vids n very proud of you every time you do some some thing you put the credit as “we did it” even though it’s you actually did but just the humble words n you are such a lofty perch
Great job as always , Who could dislike that, Elekworld? 😁
Very nice work Alex and thank you for sharing. Hello from Sheffield in the UK 😊
show off .:) flicking the pad into place . i love your work
يعطيك العافية محبك من سوريا 😘😘
Amazing patience! I would have chucked it in the bin....
Sir that was indeed biggest port I have ever seen to be soldered. Perhaps very few people who can solder it . Indeed u r the master of gems MashaAllah. A diamond and platinum technician I have ever come across. Good luck further sir
This man is fantastic explained it nicely, logically thank you sooo much.
Alex, I have a batch of Nintendo 3DS and 3DSXL FPC connectors to repair on my Instagram channel. Before retro hardware got to be too expensive, I acquired the worst basketcase consoles I could find on eBay and set aside the boards I found with bad FPC connectors, as I considered that repair to be for the future when I was more skilled.
I have ordered some low melt solder from your website and I think I'm going to give it a go. At least some of the connectors can be had from China now, as donors become brittle with age. The largest connector I've been successful with is four pins but after watching your video I have new confidence. Used working 3DS XL consoles especially are very lucrative right now, so thanks in advance.
For tasks like that you want to use a hot air BGA machine. Where I work I use a Honton HT-R390. Company got it 8 years ago and it does component removals like that with ease. In the 8 years I been using the machine to replace connectors (currently use it to replace lvds connector on Apple motherboards) I have never melted a connector. Sometimes customers want to replace the faulty component themselves thus if we have a scrapped board available, I will use the BGA machine to remove the connector from the scrapped boards. Comes of the pcb perfectly.
I used to use a Weller heating plate with a hot air gun to remove components because the small size of the heating plate and the hot air gun was perfect size for a work bench but over time, some of the components I had to remove needed more heat due to the size and the thickness of the pcb which meant I had to go for something a bit bigger. We already had the BGA machine and I wondered if it could remove plastic components without melting them and it can.
Nice job, awesome as always. I learned so much from your repair-videos. I dont know why but i love those kind of specific electronic stuff-repairs more than the iphone or ipad repairs, but thats what i like too
Another great repair, keep up the good work 👍
Smile like a winner, after repair is successful. 😊
Stay blessed and happy.
Nice work man. Great ironing.
delicate work, almost surgeon like, wick pressure? you say barely touching the pads... well done...
Connectors like FPC connectors are really only available in a couple variants, top contact, bottom contact, dual, and then the pin pitch and mounting style. I'm pretty confident you could measure that connector and find a suitable replacement if a donor board wasn't available.
I'd be massively surprised if something like the Osram XF2M-4515-1A didn't fit it. As you say, they're almost all the same footprint.
The red glue is for securing the heavy connector in the second part of reflow. Heat causes the glue to harden on first pass of oven. When other side of pcb is component placed then reflowed, the glue stops the part falling off. It does little to really secure the part so the side mount points should be re-soldered for strength. So don't re-add glue.
That really nice work brother.
Türkiye'den selamlar. Mükemmel işçilik
Great job and video like always
Thank you nice work!
Amazing work 🙏🙏🙏
o my God you so good . have these prblm in me . its so satisfaying to worck like that or to watch you doing it . God bless you SIR
You are Professional!
Lovely job
PCB's are art.
Nice job!
I was trying that today! If I've seen your video before it would been easier to me LoL
Awesome how u saved the bad pad. Well done master Alex lol.
I think you should raise your prices.
Yall definitely deserve it.
What u charge for this repair. 175 +
Sounds good to me.
3:49 the SOUND of dragging a flux syring on the pins🌝
i cant wait till you get to my H&S tuner......Roger
Good job
Logical order of thinking, always good to ponder prior to action/execution. Kind of like making a shopping list, even if the list isn't used it still has some positive effects.
good job😊
Hello fellow valley guy!
love u bro u re work....
great job.
Very nice
very nice job love you
Great job transfering the connector! Alex for the win!
This guy is the definition of Inception!
You are the King 🤴
any question i ever have about soldering or removing something you always have the answer and with great detail. love it. thank you!
one question i do have though, say i fucked up the connector trying to remove it...(hint hint lol) where would the model number be? on the bottom? would a connector work of the same type, pin count and distance between pins for a display ribbon cable?
Excellent work on that plastic connector, would have been ruined by most.
good &thanks
viewer happy too. nicely done. your soldering technique is really awesome. so good so clean.
Sir u are wonderful. I also have a problem with an pcb. 1 year ago my workstation crashed. After searching for 2 days finaly found out my datastore hdd had given up. I located the problem to the controller of the board. Since then i m looking for someone who can transfer bios chip to a new pcb. I think about ti try it myself afer i seen ure vids. 🖖🇦🇹😗
And once again low melt solder comes in to save the day! Awesome stuff
maşaallah wery nice jop Greetings from crafting the perfect turkey
"we did it" - what a relief
Sri lanka .good job
Very hard work
Alex, I have learned so much from you and I really appreciate your terrific videos. Could you please mention centigrade or fahrenheit when you mention hot air degrees? I have not yet mastered hot air reflow. Thank you from Hawaii. Aloha
I mention it in every video but you're not listening.
Awesome like always after all I am the 1 one here to like and say best tech ever
How would you compare this to using the chip quik low melting point solder? I love using that stuff for mod jobs
سلام تحية لك أخي والله عملك رائع متابعك من الجزائر
Awesome
Super ..what use fluxside please..
Dark Infrared soldering station works great for connectors. It only heats the metal parts and does not burn the plastic.
Electronics repair depends on wisdom, imagination and intelligence
Love to see your work
Thanks for the videos! What's the microscope you're using?
Looks like the v2 they sell on their website
Hi
I'm just wondering !
What type of hot air machine you use ?
nice 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Am from India sir
Greetings from Turkey
nice video what is the name of thise tip big one
I have a ribbon cable that shows wear at the contact points. Also, the clips that hold the ribbon cable locked in has the 2 locking tabs broken off.
To fix ribbon cable, I could cut off a strip to shorten it which would change the contact points. But I would have problem holding it in place.
I tried cleaning contacts with alcohol and then pushed back into slot. I then applied hot glue on back side of cable to hold in place. This worked for a couple of weeks but I think I have bad connections again.
I even thought about replacing connector on board, but not sure what to get. Only know that my cable is 15 pin.
This is on a stove/range. The other ends of the ribbon are attached to splitters which go to various buttons on the face of stove. What should this cost to repair?
It's like when you work on a Pioneer or Kenwood stereo, if you LOOK at the traces they peel off! LOL
What type of Solder Wick are you using?
Can you tell me what r those red glue on the connector I need to buy one??
what was the temp you used and the flow rate?
What you think about the IPhone 12 that isnt even repairable with original Apple Parts?
Alex, I'm dealing with the same thing with a 40 pin connector for an edp cable but Im completely missing most of the pads on the board I need to solder on. Help!
Which paste did you use?
Where did you learn how to do all of this stuff?
hi friend...you can use fireproof tape when removing some plastic connectors...i use it and i am not afraid anytime...
Sir can you fix the special d-link router?
Greetings Jr Boss from Sweden. :)
Soooo easy
Wow
Hi, Alex i have a Samsung Galaxy Tab E 8.0 inches tablet. My digitizer screen FPC connector on the motherboard the latch and the plastic is damaged/broken. I have a donor motherboard and two new FPC connectors also that you can use if repair goes wrong. Can you repair it.
Good job Sir
Assalaam thanks for your soldering tricks I have learnt a lot from your videos... My cheap hot air station is working good should I get an advanced hot air station or should I continue with the cheaper one...
Hoping a reply from you
Hello Sir!
Greetings from Bhutan, Asia. I have right now deleted my Toshiba external hard drive. Please suggest a software that can retrieve my documents.
Thank you.
What is the flux you use? You can send me the mark exactly?
Why do you need to prep the board on which you want to put the connector?
And why do you prep it by putting on solder and then taking it off again with a wick?
Nice work Alex when will you put the microscope on your site. Because I can not find it.
Regards Steve from Belgium
I accidentaly damaged my tablet FPC connector when I tried to disconnect its touchscreen . Now there's one side of the touchscreen that no longer works . is there a way to fix it without soldering another one ?
Nicely done. Sometimes it's easier to remove the connector by heating the donor board up from below
Thats what i always do, i was expecting the same
