Been watching you for a few years now. I learn so much. Thank you. It is also helping me with my own TH-cam channel!
good luck man!!!
Same here bro. I also start a shop.laptop repair and having lot of incoming
Clientul a fost roman sigur ai avut fata luminata cand ai vorbit de subscriber ! Felicitari Sorin !
De obicei nu acceptă job-uri din afară! A bănuit de ce a acceptat!
I love your style of diagnosing issues. I figured you had a thermal camera in your tools. Great work.
They obviously don’t pay him enough😂
@@Paul-ib5xv he may as well be the owner of his business. and he's got experience, which in his case can be 1000 times better than an expensive thermal camera
I am sure he is the owner of that shop
@@repairlad1934 nope, he is the friend of the owner,
sorin owned repair shops(3?) before, but the stock market crash of 2005 has ruined his business( and his country), so he moved to england
Great video as always Sorin, thanks
As always, the Master at is finest ❤️
Amazing and educative, I also wish you could address the issue of presence of vertical/horizontal lines on LCD screens.
The problem with lines down or across the screen is that a ribbon cable with many, many soldered connections is what connects the LCD panel to the driver board. The issue is that one of the solder connections is detached but it's very hard to diagnose which one of 160 for example points has failed. Even if you do, soldering the cable back is even harder although not impossible I guess if you hold it down with tweezers and heat from the other side of the board.
I look forward every day for your intuitive video's I purchased the ES15 to replace a Wowstick that I had for a long time you are rite about it being a bit hard to get the direction rite I have found that if you push the button on the side that you want to go, rather than the whole button, you don't have to twist your hand as much. I had trouble with mine after I had it for a few days, long story short, it kept showing a black screen after contacting the very help full service dept, they were about to send a replacement when I found out that if I put a cable tie around the button over night I was able to upload the firmware and it worked again
Good job Sorin. Themal camera will help than the use of finger feel in detecting which components gets hot on the board due to short circuit.
Sorin saves yet another electronic device from the landfill. Nice!!
Am un laptop identic care nu mai incarca... De cateva zile ți-am urmarit videoclipurile, dar e mult de invatat pentru a repara. Puteam sa jur ca ești român, acum am aflat si din comentarii. Pacat ca oamenii buni pleacă și noua nu are cine sa ne repare. Daca cumva vezi mesajul și ma poti ajuta macar cu câteva sfaturi, as aprecia enorm. Momentan funcționează pe baterie, nu o mai incarca si nu am sursa sa bag curent pe placa...
I've learned a lot from your tutorial sir. Thank you so much
We don't live long. And time is the most important thing we have but I can say watching these videos was worth it.
Well done! Thank you Sorin. God bless you!
Sorin a joy to watch. There is a famous youtuber that would have said to stop the world from complaining he would have replaced that capacitor. 😊
Yea but this is Sorin, he doesnt care about persons who speak, but the persons which want to learn... Northridgefix will never fix laptops in a way that Sorin does, they have different approach.
why is it not necessary to replace the damaged capacitor?
@@giorgio5789 Capacitor can be used to "calm down" or filter signal. So its not too aggressive in fluctuation. He showed problem in exact component that was making unwanted short. If he did not record on video, doesnt mean he did not put another capacitor inside.
And that TH-camr is Alex @ Northridge fix😂😂
from phillipines I learned a lot of your tutorial sir,, thank you so much
"La Multi Ani" pentru '22.
It's an easy job because Sorin has the knowledge to quickly find the fault 😉
Sorin, we like your attitude :)
If you have the possiblity please make more phone videos, we like your work under the microscope
Actually, there is no need to supply voltage to find the short circuit on the b+ line.
The red probe is on the b+ line and the other black probe is in contact with the coils. multimeter should be in ohm range. Which coil has a low value, there is a short circuit on that line. and generally upper mosfet or condenser with short circuit
by the way, no flux is needed to remove a component
makes life alot easier often adding flux while removing. same as adding soldering while remove. so much easier. and life is about being easy. not about being a pain in the ass
@@klaasj7808 more convenient when soldering flux. smd capacitor removal time there is no difference between flux and time without flux
Nice fault finding but I wonder why you didn't replace the capacitor or the thermal paste or use flux when soldering back the two MOSFETs and resistor? Do you do things like this off camera?
you're new to this channel :D
@@GharacDurac Would you please tell me why?
I was wondering the same thing..
We can see you are new to this channel, he doesnt do anything off camera, he have extreme knowledge and he knows what will work, what not...
And..... you guys need to know about the properly calibrated fuse. Hahaha
P.s. you guys need to cut the consumer thingy.
Good Morning. At least I could have cleaned the fans and changed the thermal paste. This is how you see who and who are the professionals who do things properly.
thank you very much, for the tutorial and also the translation of the text
Hello so we arre back, Tuesday.
That thermal camera you bought later on would have really sped this repair up :).
Beautiful fix Sorin
I know you have endless experience but why don't you get a proper thermal camera in the shop? It's not mad expensive nowadays.
He is teaching us how to work without camera, the ones who doesnt want to buy it for hobby repair or simply cheap one is still expensive. He also use zippo liquid trick...
keep the good work Mr.Sorin
Thnak you for the class, master Sorin!
Wonderful Sorin thanks more things learnt
Im very thank you for this lesson
I half expected the noise AAH EEEEEEEEE from you, burnt fingers.
i thought a capacitor before the first mosfet had shorted, i was wrong lol.
Layer capacitors are a pain.
Nice and quick troubleshooting sir, how about the caps u removed, it needs a replacement or not because I didn't see un replaced it a new one?
Caps are like fuel tanks: there is always more.
A typical psu has several caps in parallel and if one is missing nobody will complain about
@@eugrafcmg he usually says it's just for the selling regulations, things like white noise or rectifying circuitry, I guess in the long run might show some kind of degradation in the whole equipment, but nothing stays forever...
Wish I can find some one like you, capable of doing this repair for me here in Colombia, sadly 2 different places said they won't do it :c Having the same issue with my Nitro 5.
Hello! Thank You for sharing Your knowledge with us.
remove the power adapter and hold the power button for exact 40 second with the help stopwatch and then connect the power adapter and press the power on button..boom🔥 this will work definitely🔥🔥
Salut Sorin, de curand intampin o problema cu un pc, placa de sunet reda sunetul distorsionat si infundat, mentionez ca am incercat alte drivere, am incercat si cu Linux si tot la fel reda sunetul, tind sa cred ca ceva este defect pe placa de baza. Placa este Acer Aspire m3203.
Te urmaresc de ceva timp si multe din clipurile tale mi au fost folositoare . RESPECT!
what about the capacitor is it safe to just remove it with out changing it
Sorin, whats the consequences like now that you removed that dodgy CAP and the laptop came back to life. I mean how you suppose to know, what that CAP was suppose to do there, it's like a protection circuit that now it's not working? Maybe it's something to keep the current in that circuit more stable?
All i want to know is, if the laptop is working fine without that capacitor, what it was doing there in the first place?
what am i missing here?
P.S. I have seen many times,that a solution is by removing a smd like this one, im not sure if you can do the same if that wasn't a cap and it was a resistor.
Keep it going, you're the most real/honest/good technician on youtube.
a cap has a connection with the ground, when the cap is dead, it will be shorted to ground in most times..The function of a cap is holding the voltage a bit , some sort of fuel tank.. the reason for that cap is, smooth out and filtering the current, its limiting the "spikes". Because there are a lot of caps on each power supply, u have enough fuel left to run a laptop proper stable.. U cant remove a resistor without replacing it, your will get a open cirucuit and the laptop will not start.
I learn so much, thank you
Thanks to your videos, I figured out that a capacitor after the first mosfet on my asus' motherboard is shorted (battery not charging, laptop not powering up with charger inserted). Thank you :)
Now I'm just wondering if that could be the only flaw. Like...now that I know that that one capacitor is shorted, should I check for anything else? Or can I go ahead and try to replace the capacitor alone?
The mosfets in that area of the motherboard seem to be fine.
Maybe some other viewers can help?
Anyway, thanks to all!
If its a bypass cap like in this situation, you can leave it off and it will function fine, check for short like he did or you can simply remove bad cap and test....
Good work Sorin!!
Good day sir my laptop also has the exact same problem please how do I fix this and how did you fix this what did you remove
question how can you give 20V to battery connector, its ok for this ?
Sehr gut Arbeit !
Think you very much for your video.
hi sorin great video as always ... thermal camera for your iphone will help saving your finger ..haha ..
Very good teacher
Nicely done!!!
Nice work sorin
i love your screw driver
I had a case with an All in One Hp, computer suddenly died, after initial review, everything was ok and the charger was working properly but it wont turn back on. Later, during the day, computer worked again without modifying anything. End of story, I replaced the charger as it looses power and the computer dies after some time being on.
Hi great vid, but i did not see you replace the faulty capacitor?
Nice find.
what about replacement of dodgy capacitor
Just curious what kind of cheapish hot air station you recommend for someone that is just starting out as a hobby wanting to learn this stuff for themselves? (You've probably answered this already but I missed it)
superb teacher
Thanks that was awesome!
Thank you
Nice fix
You didn’t put back the capacitor?
good job. Capacitor is not unnecessary? why?
tanks sorin
Good job
What did he replace?
Watching this, trying to troubleshoot why my Nitro 5 N18C3 AN515-54 is having a hard time running on the AC Adaptor. At about 4 months old it started randomly dropping to 'on battery'. Went to 89% battery power and seemed to stay there for the next 10 months. Then overnight it completely discharged. I tested the adaptor and it was bad - so I replaced the adaptor.
With the new adaptor, the battery indicator flips back and forth between of 'on battery' and 'charging'. It does not feel like there is a good click-connection when either the old adaptor, or the replacement, is inserted. If I put a little pressure one way or another (not consistent) on the plug into the laptop the 'charging' works for more than 1 or 2 seconds. The longest I've gotten it to 'hold' the charging status is about 20 minutes, and that was after much unplug/replug.
I've seen several complaints online that are very similar to my experience.
Is it possible that these laptops were shipped with bad adaptor ports? Could the bad port have contributed to the failure of my OEM AC adaptor?
Unsure if the way I use this laptop is contributing to the problem. I bought it thinking it would have the necessary power. I don't do gaming, but I run a HD wide angle webcam to livestream 12 hours daily via OBS and youtube, run the laptop monitor and a secondary monitor, wired keyboard, wired mouse. Has a GeForce GTX 1650. I'm also a heavy user of internet for research - sometimes have 20 or so tabs open in the browser (Brave). I don't think any of this should cause power problems, but doing the troubleshooting, have shut down OBS and the livestream, and minimizing windows and other background apps. Doesn't seem to make much of a difference, but after 4 hours of messing with the adaptor and port this morning, have finally gotten the battery recharged to 97%.
Have ordered a third adaptor, just in case its a manufacturing error that both the OEM and the replacement adapter are experiencing, but is there a way to check the adaptor port?
that was cool as always man but i have a question !! why you didn't replace the cap with new one !!?
Thank you master🙏🙏
very good video thank you.
Good job!
Man I wished you were in germany, so I can bring my stuff to you :(
super fault finding nice quick fix :)
Why don't you replace that component ?!..or am i wrong, Regards A.
Hello! I have a problem with F8 Key Ligth on Acer nitro 5? How i can turn off the ligth on F8 key? (FN+F8 didn`t help) Thank u!
first timer here! Thanks for your video. Could you please let me know if you later replaced the capacitor or is ok to leave like that?
Nice video,thank you for sharrng it :)
Nice one
Very Talent man, Learn from you a lot, thanks for the smart lesson
nice work .
Do you change part or what I have same issue on my laptop
5:05
Good tip
Esti cel mai tare!!! Ai putea sa-mi zici te rog cum se numeste aparatul cu care lipesti si dezlipesti? Eu am cumparat un heat gun de pe eMAG, dar nu era special pentru piese mici(are tubul foarte mare) si pe langa piesa arsa, am dezlipit inca 3 pe langa(trist, cred ca mai bine il duceam la service)... Daca ai putea sa-mi zici m-ai ajuta enorm...Mersi mult!
Statie de lipit cu aer cald
I have same problem. My laptop would not boot but then worked after one day
I am curious, Sorin. Where are you from? I really love your videos and have been using the things you have taught and demonstrated to troubleshoot Chromebooks for my school!
Romania
@@ionut9753 they don't fix phones from outside, he said so in some of his videos
Is the capacitor not needed? Will it be replaced at a later time?
wondering the same thing..
That capacitor is acting as a filter, in a more technical way of saying it's used as a way to remove the AC component of a line as much as possible. The computer will work without that filter but obviously you're sending that unfiltered power to places it shouldn't go to so that degrades the life spam of the device by a bit.
That's a classic example of a "secondary component", the device will work without secondary components but the reason they exist is just to increase the life spam of the circuitry.
@@miguelfontenele221 Or to decrease the lifetime of the whole motherboard/computer which way u look at it...
@@miguelfontenele221 Thanks Miguel! 👍🏻
cheers sir succesful one 👍
You're really helping me sir plz do you have an online school I want register
Thank you bro
Sorin you ar good men thx for move
And what is the cost of repair like this one?
There is a green light(or bulb) blinking inside in the backside(botton) of laptop.I was able to notice it from the space given in the backpannel to see fans. Same Model. Is it a problem?
You need Thermal camra
So the capacitor was removed, did i miss you replacing it. Im sure it is there for a reason.
Hello Sir. I am a new subscriber to this channel and I really enjoy watching your speciality in actions! If it's not too much to ask, I have been carrying a question for many years that I don't know how to find the answer to! I don't find it on TH-cam or Google, not sure if there's any topics about my question available on the internet or I just don't know how to look for it! I had been trying to find a complete parts for any laptop brand if there's any site that can give the complete list of a laptop parts or
How can I know and where do I look for to find the complete parts including the body if I want to assemble for example, HP Pavilion x360 or Asus TUF etc. basically any laptop from the ground up at home? Thx for your time.
Did you replace the faulty capacitor? It seems not.
Why apply 20 volt on the battery connector?
why you aren't use thermal cam ?
Hi everybody :-)
I have a razer blade 15,and the akku plug in on the bord is broken(it makes brzzz because the energy when i pluged off).
So i use my laptop with 230v.
But i think the broken plug in is not goot..mayby the energy jumps over the little pins because there are not straight)
Is there any way,too deaktivate the battery plug in on the motherboard?
I cant souldering out.
Any ideas?
Sorin you should buy a thermal camera.
the capacitor remove ? it should be replace ? or leave it ?
i have the same laptop , but the lcd is broken so i replace it i got the 144 hz on after i installed it it boot after that, when i will fix the lcd , it wont boot with flash of kb back light and none,,,, after that 1 week later the unit boot up but no display ... do you any idea whats seem to be the problem ?
