so hmm evening everyone don't mind me just quickly cleaning up a little bit some pieces before we get started okay so i need to have a look at this this had a hard drive coming today that was completely dead external portable and the poor person was freaking out because you know nothing would work and i said well it's actually better that for the external portal that it's completely dead no lights or anything because it usually means there's something wrong with the bridge side of it assuming that the drive has a separate bridge as opposed to the awful western digital ones which have the integrated bridge so let's see oh yeah well that explains that then looks like someone just smooshed it nice sheer job on that connector interestingly with its shed like that if you were truly desperate and you couldn't open up the case you should be able to put just a standard um uh see usb mini connector on there but in this particular one it probably wouldn't work because this was a five terabyte drive so it had a fairly high power consumption requirement which would not have been met by what this could deliver so i did need the full width anyway it's fixed now as in i'm just recovering it on my recovery server and got all the data off so it's all good just throw that in the bin really there you go i was wondering what was causing that to fail hey rtc barry jason's dj travis john cecilia my apologies to all those who are missed in that first pass and we've had some bad news the um let's see that uh eight two zero one six three board the one that we had to battle around with we found it to be what was it the um the battery that needed replacing amongst other things i got that out of the ultrasonic cleaner today and it um three beeped at me and that's it that i'm not gonna bother trying fixing that because more than likely three beeps on those things it's pch or something like that it's just it's a rabbit hole i've gotta walk away from that one i can get the data it's not a major problem all right on the 1425 still hasn't come back that's completely dead oh hell it's just going to bend out this is a google pixel never open one of these can they be opened i suppose they can but supposedly the problem with this is i'm assuming that's usbc they're plugged in it got hot and dyed well it does respond it keeps resetting here i think they've just botched up that connector is really flaky i mean really flaky now i think they might have mangled up the it's working it's just a mangled up connector so it's drawing five watts at the moment just realize it's probably going to reveal the information it's not meant to come on and okay it looks like it's actually looping see if it's getting warm anyway just seems to be going around in this so how do you open these things up appear electro type electro lab rather oh this thing's just going around in the loop the bend in it is what concerns me i have a feeling it's probably damaged ram or something like that ah i got a something in my eye anyway oh that's different is it actually a bender is that design yeah it's a bend jim okay so which pixel is this one phone is google no idea can't read it tpw 4100 let's have a look at the disassembly guide if there is even one i fix it hey apparently it's not the easiest well let's see so we've got to heat the edges heat the display okay wait they just say heat the edges of the display in the following steps you'll separate the display slicing through the adhesive bonding display to the chassis the following steps right they don't really give much of a guide they just sort of like heat it and shucked that thing open yeah thanks yeah i sort of gathered that looks like there's not a lot of depth to play with it looks like it's about one and a half millimeters that's almost nothing there's my iec cable i think i threw out about a dozen iec cables the other day just like what do i need him for well apparently the answer is i need him to do this job ah come on i've got the stupid laptop ones should have been one hanging up on the ceiling wait wait wait we have a winner right we have a winner now the question is what temperature do i even run this at it's uh we'll just do it 70. yep we'll do it 70 for now uh travis i'll have to find myself plenty more room to do that sort of thing uh let's see all right so there's so it looks like the hinges from the top or the hinges down the bottom rather where the cable is and looks like i need some sort of suction gripper that should do the trick hey kendall panic good name you got there great time to turn up when i'm doing something that i've never done before so bravo to you okay so i'm gonna whistle this down a little bit give me a finer edge should be good um probably another six weeks or so yeah i'd say another six weeks before i get access and even then that's going to be partial it's going to be one of those things that takes time and that was the sound of everything's snapping oh wait you're alive the heat has brought you back to life naturally i don't have a passcode i don't get it what is what's this phone doing here i'm not pulling it apart now hey dennis oh my lord that is a seriously messed up usbc port this is why i don't like the usbc port because really this is the sort of damage you're going to expect but you'd prefer to have that on a cable that you can replace that is mashed up to hell uh that's it i'm i'm not touching that until i get their passcode which should be somewhere around here that can wait i think it's just the ports jacked up and i'm not going to replace that i'm just going to get the data off from the end all right let's go to the deal yeah it may not be too hard to do it every day but for me no ah you're the stupid miniature dell connector and you didn't give me the charge port okay why is it that when you don't need the charger brick people supply you a charger brick and when the times you do need to charge brick they don't i am 99.9 recurring percent sure i do not have that particular charge brick here i think like it's foolish enough it's definitely not that i don't know if anything's compatible compatible i mean i've got a bunch of power bricks but i don't think anything's going to fit that dual one this is turning into a real suck face of a night damn it god all right let's see if i can at least find out what it was that they mentioned about it uh-huh all right i think okay phone over here didn't have been able to turn on since pain now works after i heated it laptop ran out of power last week midway through a movie tried a few chords but can't get to start up oh great okay so part of the problem is the chords and i don't get a chord supplied with it damn it hey miles all right does anyone know if there is something compatible with this particular small dell power connector it's not the more typical one that we get which is yeah the nine millimeter diameter one the nice solid one the one that gives you confidence when you plug it in that it's going to actually do something all right now have a shuffle trash around in here yep that's it blower hernia hp mini power tip but it won't charge oh okay what about a lenovo that's not going to work no i'm pretty sure i've got a bunch of the hp ones you're talking about the blue open cylinder ones now these yeah yeah so this is the hp one now i just don't very often encounter the dell gear anymore at least not the newer ones about me it's mostly hp and toshiba and acer and stuff like that okay we're not getting indicator light well it looks like would it okay we've got indicator light coming up he did momentarily okay caplocks is alive all right so it seems to come up for about three seconds and then die that's an smc we need to rebuild all right let's tear this one down see how they try to go for the fake macbook look so phillips at least they could do is use talks hey eddie penner when i personally don't have a problem with hr dell laptops they all seem much much ins they seem to do good on the support side interesting these screws have actually these bottom screws they've got the expanded thread on the underside so you can't actually pull them out at least not without forcibly re-cutting it through it in the plastic yeah crazy j let's hope it's not like that eh i'm not doing 144 you sort that out hey greg looks like someone's already split it for me well according to youtube everything's good on this side you yeah who knows ah steve cave i'm so sorry it should be 8k for you yeah hey andre yes it certainly is a funny looking macbook okay batteries are disconnected oh how cute nice they even included the starter adapter in this one i really am not a fan of these ssd modules not a fan at all the jack was slightly pulled out there like the cable here maybe felt a bit short but i don't think would have been enough to cause that sort of issue that we were seeing um yeah still fires up for a couple of seconds and shuts down all right i get admit not really sure what i'm going to be looking for on this one yeah i'm finding i'm getting a number of these coming in completely dead i'm not surprised they look like they probably get thrashed to death well the fan does spin so and normally what would happen if you've got a clogged fan or stuff like that the bias would warn you you know say your fans not operating properly press f1 to continue or restart things like that normally they'll report the situation rather than just blindly shutting down on you communist palmer's flex made it chip bga come off are you referring to this model or something else these modules are only good for taking your data and running with it forever like your best friend who said he had no interest in your girlfriend when your back was turned they ran off together and lived happily ever after well dust bunny no they're not obtained these are genuine ssd you know m2 resist the pci yeah this is a pci express gen 3 x2 nvme but i do wonder about how the actual uh storage module holds up just seems like a little bit too packed in on one chip considering that's a what is a 256 that's a 128. i've got another machine it's got a 256 gig on it it just feels like something's got to give at least this isn't a stacked motherboard like that other tough computer that we had the horrors of dealing with i still got to put that thing together one of those situations where you end up wanting to pay the person who sent it to you money just so you don't have to put it back together it's like i'll give you 50 bucks so i don't have to put it back together and we are free the board's a bit on the thin side feels more like about 1.2 definitely not 1.6 mil pcb i don't think it could be the touchscreen have had that happen well we'll have a look really don't know what i'm going to encounter i've never seen one of these before i'll just start looking see if we can find any blatant uh what do you call it smoking gun if we can't then we'll just go no luck and then offer to take the data off that pitiful ssd forum and put it onto an external drive or something because i don't want to be spending more than 20 minutes on this i'm already used up but okay we've got the dreaded ants in here okay so we may find something around the place camera is blurry actually it is picking up a light source from somewhere camera glitches sometimes yeah you're gonna have to live with it i mean who do you think i am dave jones and getting heaps of free gear or something no siree yeah screen's tearing yes i know god damn you people won't shut up will you can't do anything about it i like it how tearing turns into blurry that's the joyous thing with users is that they'll always give you very comprehensive reports incorrectly worded so yeah that's probably the capture dongle i am saving up for a mage world there's going to be some big bickies oh no i'm not sure yet haven't looked i'm just giving my first visuals because quite honestly if i get to the point where i need the schematic involved view i probably don't want to do this job i think it's just going to be a case i'll write it off as a um yeah just not worth it what i will do is maybe give it the infrared camera treatment see if anything fires up hot and if not we'll say goodbye so i got one ant and that was about it this is a little bit of scum there all right well we'll get the model number i'm guessing this is it there you go not sure if that's what you're after now the only thing i'll be looking for if you can point me the way to the on off switch let me guess it's going to be part of the keyboard assembly isn't it isn't it what's the bit it's going to be part of the keyboard muhammad now all i really want to find is the on off button so that i can at least try see if it will stay on for more than three seconds basil another under the ram that's a beautiful place to put it are you kidding they put it under here it's a lot of bs well steve we can't get the blood views yet something great see if i can't find it myself floating around here somewhere 90 watt version of the power supply uh steve um i don't know i don't even know if they're going to there's a bit of an issue that i was talking to louis about and that is that a lot of the designers and manufacturers get a bit confused when we say board view they're thinking design file but it's not why can't there just be like a cap with all its all its glorious internals cracked and showing off to the world letting us know that i am the problem okay yeah greg i saw that um jim linked me into it how am i supposed to download this download i love it how they try to force you to have to use their damn downloader it's like no just download it all right arnold let's see what we can do with what you've given here you're a terrible man you didn't put that in a separate folder uh cad should work in theory and okay so it's a little shonky compared to what we're used to with macbooks but it is working so i wonder what notation they use for things like um you know on off i guess we'll look at the keyboard tv detect maybe it is a separate switch and i'm just not sure uh it's coming off the damn daughter board that's why and that goes in via the large this large this here power button and it looks like we might be able to this here oh whoops can't see that yeah this tp 11 17 11. i don't seem to use the same no numbers here that's okay the the i've got the numbers i want there so i'll give it a shot i'll try short those and hopefully things don't go blaming [Music] foreign well i'll see if i can just fire this up first see if it even does the anticipated job or if it just goes blam and i become electro boom for a few seconds oh great now the lights on oh it was momentarily on and the button doesn't seem to squat oh there we go okay the first thing i'll get is some heat here which is cpu okay i'm gonna this is gonna be awkward but we're gonna do it because apparently i'm trying to be nice it's got only two phases of firing up there and then fading out so the third phase doesn't want to come up let's see if there's a button on the other side actually maybe maybe that's not even cpu related so 4802 and 4801 were running but 4701 was not but it doesn't look like it's see it seems like it has a different function there you see these two here are working together one vcpu core and that's something else right okay fair enough now what i want to see is if this yeah all we have is pin nine and we need to short that to a ground somewhere that's a pretty risky move now why would i look for a fuse oh hell no i suppose i can actually short it to this frame here it's a bit risky so one two three four five six seven eight nine so yeah that's kind of pushing my luck a bit maybe now i'll give it one more visual but i think wood's not going to bother with this one got a cough i can't tell what the power consumptions are because this is running off an adapter but yeah unfortunately they've only put the power activation button on the one side of the board rather than both sides of the board it's very handy to have it on both sides of the board but this just looks like it's a waste of time now the mic was deliberately dead while i was coughing um mp having a bit of a tricky time measuring that because it only appears for a short moment but yeah we'll give it a look 0.8 volts so 0.8 now i'm putting this one back together i'm done with it when it comes to these machines really for the most part unless it's something [Music] physically visible like a blown cap or a bit of corrosion then it's very quickly going to become a time waste it's different for the macbooks on the basis of the fact that you know you do have a significantly smaller number of different machines i mean don't get me wrong there's enough of them already but yeah you have a chance of getting used to some of the idiosyncrasies whereas with these pcs it you just don't get exposed to enough of the same ones enough times to make it something worth investing into and the churn of the models is just phenomenally quick about the only ones that i did put any real effort into with the toshiba series it could be a power brick issue as well it wouldn't hurt for me to go and buy myself a full 90 watt type unit or whatever is the maximum for this particular series of connector try the boss at least no pass seriously it's just not worth it i'll try i'll buy a power brick simply because i should have a power brick on hand but aside from that i'm not doing anything more i've really really got to put more effort into saying no to certain jobs and saying no sooner when a certain job isn't going smoothly because all that happens is that my queue just builds up with junk that i can't fix or won't be fixed or whatever and that means i can't take on new jobs like i had to turn away a couple today and the new jobs could be the ones that actually have the money available so i'm only hurting myself yeah that's a good way of killing it i'll leave this out so that i can recover their data for them since we've already pretty much declared this as a no fix as i don't expect people to understand the business choices made if you're not running a business yourself then it doesn't always make sense if you're doing it for fun as a hobby and stuff like that then yeah i mean it can be fun to chase these things but i've been doing things like that for too long someone kill hiron why do people even want to get shout outs like that it just seems weird especially with someone as relatively unpopular as myself yeah i can understand if say you've got rossman and he's million and a half followers but me doesn't make any sense warren i used to have one of those and they drove me mad i mean they seem some people like him but yeah they drive me mad why do i get the feeling i was supposed to actually all right when i first started getting back into computer repairs i did buy myself a couple of those multi-tip ones but it wasn't long before i found myself needing to have to get the genuine one of one brand or another so in the end it was easier just to have the four bricks say like acer asus toshiba hp okay five um or six lenovo dell and at least then you could do multiple jobs concurrently no there's no screw do we have there buddy karen tipper with lewis moving away from doing repairs you could get more subscribers i could but not quite as um not quite as divisive yeah i don't quite draw the same sort of attention that lewis does and i'm not trying to i think it sort of i don't have that kind of personality i'm not really one to seek sort of to stir the part to create uh controversy if i do create controversy it's only because i believe in something and maybe other people don't but it won't be because i'm actively trying to do it it would be much better to power a bench passer well mp i do do that with most of my other stuff but in this particular case i didn't you'll notice mp up the top here there's all the multimeter and bench power supply stuff but in this particular instance we didn't really have that tip on a cord available i'm not really gonna bother you can get yourself you can buy yourself a replacement one of these for less than what it would probably cost me to service it that's just the reality of it did i connect the battery i did it's already done yeah exactly tony yeah i mean you go to any of those government ex-government refurb sites and you pick something up this up for 120 bucks maybe less maybe 50 bucks just not really possible to justify anymore the macbooks at least you can because they do cost a fair bit even now but everything else not much chance i was hoping maybe more would be for entertainment value as it were turns out it was not fortunately the night is not over we do have a macbook and we've got an smc reball to still do it could be the bias but it could also not be the bios that's the thing you've got to play the paranoid game rather than the hopeful game and sure there may be a few jobs that i toss out that could have been easily fixed but i find that's a psychological trap that ends up wasting your time and money better to let those go and someone else who [Music] yeah wants to put that sort of time in it let it go to them then they can at least capitalize on that but uh like i said i've got my cues just getting too big it's time to start culling before too long all right what do we got for tonight on the macbook scene looks like we've got batman the thing is it's always more than just five minutes i'm getting to the point in life where if people say to me if someone's comes up to me and says oh mate it's just gonna be a five minute job can you do it and it's likely oh okay you're qualified to know which is why you're bringing it around to me i really just want to punch those people in the face knock them out for 30 minutes and tell them well just you know put a put a lighter under there under there are the arch of their foot for only five minutes and really it's 30 minutes people do not have suitable respect for time other people's time they're happy to you to waste your way they're happy for you to waste your time because it's only five minutes they can guarantee tables turned around they'll wail and they will squeal like anything if you chew up more than a few seconds their time you ruined my son's weekend at the soccer because you took longer than two days to service the laptop how dare you you're going to compensate me my boy's got emotional damages now yeah stuff like that it's like nah and for whatever reason industries like the i.t industry full foul of um playing guilty to that or letting that even happen i'm going to try that with a lawyer or a doctor good luck with that established industries they'll just tell you to go kick rocks okay so battery is replaced with a compatible model from ifixit tried without keyboard and trackpad try and try smc reset won't power on is there a formula to get those stickers off it should just peel off yeah these stickers they should just peel off okay so this is an ifixit battery okay let's get the mag safe in and see what it's got to say for itself samsung drive bad news let's get my chipmunk out okay we do get power up now this is a 2015 it'll be a 4924 board it's not going to spin the fan oh no not good you're booting all right okay so what we can hope for in this scenario since all of a sudden now it's working since it's been shipped is that we've got a bit of corrosion on the back side somewhere better to clean circles acetone non-acid oh never acetone um it depends what you're trying to clean up if it's anything that's water-based like cereal or anything that's soluble potentially in water use something like 80 20 percent so 80 ipa 20 water stuff like that and then when you've come to clean the flux that's when you use 100 rpa okay shut that down if you try to clean a lot of the junk with just straight isopropylane or ethanol most the time it will refuse to come off very cleanly because a lot of the stuff that gets into these machine machines is not actually water soluble oh sorry not actually alcohol soluble but it is water-soluble ah okay i'm just looking for my t5 here it is but first thing do remove the battery second thing to do remove the client's data so there's no risk and always put a sticker on it so that if you get separated from your buddy computer you will know who you belong to it's a very clean machine what am i doing just trying to think of the what could possibly where the corrosion could be yeah they might have had a dead charger but [Music] i'm sure they might have at least checked with another one a spare or something like that particularly if they've gone all the way to get an ifixit battery pack to replace this we'll find out we'll take the board out have a look because like i said we've had a few other streams where machines turn up and they're all running fine even though the person has said that they were not running when they sent it and it turns out to be a nice little juicy chunk of corrosion sitting off something the shipping process makes a corrosion crack it no longer has the power of the chip that hold it down before and escapes david bowie's goblin complex because it has no power over me anymore although i suppose modern people prefer to use the lord of the rings reference for that one gained off the gray phillips with these machines if you do repair any of the um these 1502 types don't try and take the fan out like separately leave it attached to the main board and you just pull out the whole assembly the only other option you'll have is to take the heatsink off and most people don't really care to do that just lift that up here we go so okay glasses off and let's have our inspection we're going to start the back side little weird crap there but not what i'm looking for all right so this is a bad sign straight up these white stickers 639 stickers they mean that the board's actually been refurbished before at least to my understanding and anyway that is a 4924 so this board has already failed in the past it's been refurbished back to some sort of standard i don't know what standard it is it seems like and there we go there's what i was looking for bingo all right that's a very welcome sight to see so we'll just take that whole chip off i know we could probably revive that one but honestly being a nice healthy base will just take the whole thing off make sure that all the traces are good all the way under side and yeah just replace it i'm also going to take off the i'm just taking off that plastic barrier that doesn't seem to stop a damn thing clock chip had a green dot um i think i saw what you were talking about and i decided it wasn't actually a threat there's that one there that's a bit of junk yep bit of floaty junk okay there's a bad spot there so the capacitors also got a bit damage on it so that will affect the 12 megahertz clock there i'm going to say that the iso is the actual fault fault but the clock one would come into play probably a month or two's time all right let's get repairing arnold g you talking about the that cat with corrosion that i just referred to i do hate that there is a lag in the communications fortune uh we just had a lightning strike hopefully i'm still online seem to be now because this board is actually pretty damn clean i'm going to try my best to not have to ultrasonic it and i'm miserably failing at that already so damn it did not want the flux to blow off that side all right so this is why it's good to take the chip off you see there's a corrosion that's actually underneath it's not bad but it is there because i mean you could have just gone along and you know used the micro pencil and scrubbed off those greeny looking bits resistor on the track looks a little golden uh you're gonna have to give me a number on that one most of these golden looking things are going to be caps next calf bottom right of the chip um okay you're talking about this one here that probably could have actually turned golden simply because i was heating it i really don't have any compelling reason to i mean i'll check it but i don't have any compelling reason to believe it would be giving me any trouble oh cleanup job just got worse come on you're mainly lead free okay i'm trying to stick to the gospel of jason vilma here hey you need triple five's here how's it going manny good to see you of course always okay so the one cap that i could see that are one resistor it's a one ohm resistor which like i said does not surprise me one bit given its size and i'm pretty sure any of that sort of golden hue you're thinking of it's a combination of the camera and probably the value the fact that i use the hot air on it this will probably come up at about four ohms yeah 1.6 so that's fine yeah you're gonna have to give me a number arnold if you want to play you got to give me the number this is a 49 24 board and when i'm looking through the microscope i can't see any golden looking resistors i mean i'm very used to picking out burned resistors and nothing on this is looking like it's like that so you're going to have to convince me with a number making your job harder because i don't want to make mine harder i know i should be grateful you did give me the board view for the dell that i didn't fix but i'm like that i'm an ungrateful person bottom row side deep dammit who stole the isl that was a lovely looking bullet too and someone nicked the iso from it why why would they do that and that one too oh freaking tragedy well it's not the prettiest but it will still love me hey jim what what's schultz it's obviously a reference to something i'm not aware of is that the uh soup nazi please tell me it's a super nazi uh pin one is top left so it's good ah 72 10 congratulations seven two one that one there yeah that's perfectly fine like i said camera look oh so 316 ohms that's a very specific value that one and there you go smack on 316. oh hogan's heroes right my sister watched that a lot more than i did at the time that she was watching that i was more interested in watching um battle of the planets g-force that kind of thing you know very interested in what princess was doing even though i didn't know why oh you mongrel it's out of control what is the matter with me i'm just going to let that cool down so i can redo this because someone's got too much flip and solder on there there we go and yes it's massively out of alignment but while it's got too much solder swimming under it it's never gonna so you gotta be kidding me you're gonna be one something's very wrong with me at the moment no no take it off paul yeah i know about the resistor up there i have no idea if i was having such dramas there other than to say that i was i'll fix up the resistor afterwards no it's still drifting out have i got the right chip on here honestly sometimes you wonder whether you pick up the wrong chip and it's like one pin less and you're trying to make it fit i mean look at that that's a terrible what happened here mr daniels nope that's blind man special i've got the wrong chip yeah i've got the wrong chip that's why i've picked up a 6 to 6259 this is actually meant to be a 95826 that's why it's not sitting down right idiots uh stuart if you get at the right chip for the right job then it's it's probably a four maybe yeah i saw oh my goodness that was truly aesthetically dumb yeah it was sitting there and i'm thinking this really doesn't feel right this yeah it's not sitting down it's not settling anywhere it keeps drifting back and forth between you know multiple states and that's because it was the wrong chip that's why i like stuck my head in there and i was like hey what's going on it says try a different chip buddy ah well i better get a 4924 for this i could search for in flexboardview as well if i want is this 4924 probably not but this is does it have the chip i want you scaly little mongrel you do not and you don't on there either wow so oh you look disgusting all right we're going to do some flex board view searching now okay so i want this isl chip search it's pretty much on everything yep that's all i need to see it's on the 165s and 3437s stock standards of chip so see if i want to know which one it is all right yep there we go you're a little bit buffed up but you're only up at the top so it's we'll accept you like okay so that's on the 165. we'll take that one thank you that hair is annoying me well i'm glad i didn't force the issue with the chip i should have known something was up because the center pad what had a notch out of it like a pin one indicator notch like that but when i pulled it from the isl it did not have the 62 series and that should have been my warning so i know okay my bad i was thinking maybe that would have been my telltale but in this case it looks like the apple designers just used a different footprint all right fine leave me high and dry like that guys looks like i'm gonna have to ultrasonic this damn board now too many mistakes all right now let's have a look at the pins well shock horror they line up i'll add a bit more solder to them they're a little bit sparse carlos almost never um most the time [Music] most the time i'm using oscilloscope as this inappropriately used frequency counter but as an actual oscilloscope yeah very rare it's ever so slightly skewed off but it's not so bad chances are if i try to make it perfect i'll actually make it worse this sort of thing you'll learn to live with how you use it this cap isn't even actually part of the clock circuit it's something entirely different not sure what it's for and that's just that's just noise control that's so apple can pass compliance for irradiated and noise and stuff like that we'll put it back on because we can hey richard hilac holyoke sorry uh you usually yeah sorry i know with that line i probably should put it on i'm not sure if it's running at the moment yep it is i do love being a programmer there's no denying it i love being able to go i need something to do this and go wait i'm the guy that can do that it's quite a nice thing to have the power within your own hands to you know create things that you need now if i never do that money i need a hundred bucks shabam ah the earlier version of the board does not have that the 3000 series crikey so only the 49 has it uh-huh there you are dave underwood the one i'm using fits that criteriously as long as they're a simulfocal trinocular you should be right almost all of these days now do it properly like that in the past they sort of tried to lie their way through some weasel words to trick you into buying ones that would switch out uh truffles i use a i've got a 22 liter ultrasonic tank i know that sounds a little crazy but believe me you're grateful for it i just had to give it a new a lot of liquid today which is a bit expensive here in australia it's about 50 bucks for me to fill it back up alrighty so well i guess we're not really expecting any surprises i mean the damn thing was working so for us at this point the only way is down but at least our assumption when it came in because we knew the customer sent it in saying it wasn't working and turns up and it's all working at least our assumption then that we will be looking for corrosion on the back or somewhere on it prove to be true once again okay that's in put your glasses on pull and be able to see now truffles it's a generic ebay brand i don't know if you better see it probably not [Music] hang on that's it there just random generic ebay type uh the reason why the liquid is expensive is because i need to use to fill up the tank i need to use four liters of it and well three liters i can get away with and it's about 20 bucks per liter so and you have to repl ideally you should probably i should probably be replacing the tank every month probably more every two weeks in fact and the water itself i've got to buy deionized water thankfully i get that through the local vet clinic at a pretty good price i know it sounds a bit weird getting it from a vet clinic but because they do their own lab work there they have a readily available supplier of it so i just every now and then so i need another bucket of it or another 20 liter container and they just throw it on the next order for me dave if you go to the tools page it shows you the the stuff that i'm using and then you don't have to run around second guessing anything it's right there already checked and used okay we're going backwards we i know kind of helps if you turn the power i know what happened there when we had that power strike it disabled the output of the power meter of the um yeah at a panic moment then okay at this stage we're just going to go through and test the functionality hey david from bonnie scotland oh bonnie's a town ah that explains a few things there's a lot of there's some music i listen to like um lorena mckenna and stuff like that and she speaks about this bonnie and now i understand it's a town okay wi-fi is good that's good any act 22 once you start are your hands unstable under the microscope have you already got a microscope because genuinely i've got perfectly shaky hands anxiety mostly but once under the microscope the feedback loop to your brain and hand becomes better and you don't really get the shakes as bad as what it seems if you have to try to do something freehand without a microscope okay let's see keyboard tester what's that it just means pretty oh man you're ruining everything for me oh well i guess the bunny swans are pretty under caps lock escape okay that's good oh yeah yeah travis makes a good point don't practice on consumer customer devices please not unless they've actually given you the clearer you know if if a customer brings you a device and you do not have practice on soldering and all that sort of stuff in general and you say to them look you know this could easily go south like i can make complete trash of it it's going to be a total write-off and they're still okay with that then fine but if they're actually bringing it to you because you advertise yourself as doing a professional service and whatever and when really you're just actually faking it until you make it then you're probably better not to do that my first macbook several well quite a few years ago now uh i think i denied the guy must been half a dozen times i denied the repair on him and eventually he just said to me says look i really don't care if you ruin it or not he says i just want you to have a shot at it and see if i have any luck and at that point i didn't have a microscope i didn't have the fine tip soldering irons or anything like that but i was very lucky that in my case it was a one wire component that was only a little bit smaller than what i was normally used to soldering freehand with my existing surface mount gear so i got lucky there and then about i'll probably about nine months later i finally did get a microscope and everything else oh this seems to be all good let's see yep that's fine i should do that while i do this yeah that's easy i would say this machine is good to go should we pull the power and battery is running fine yep at least we had one win which aimscape you got that's turning to goo mine's a full metal body one i've heard rumors that there's new aim scopes that are made of plastic which would be rather unfortunate now travis hope you have a luck with it i see it's good for the hot air wicking that you see me do all right which reminds me i need to actually put the job information on this before i forget what i'm doing you tell yourself i'll remember that when i get down to the other part of the house you know over the end of the workshop and you do not so this is job 526 okay u7200 corrosion replaced 50 25 c 585 corrosion oh that's fundamentally it oh you actually like had a fire fire in the house so in that case yeah you're [Music] doomed that's really unfortunate in fact i mean they are i think the heads are aluminium aren't they maybe some sort of magnesium cast either way yeah i can see that with milk and yes we have to take this board out because we have to clean it can't leave judicious quantities of flux line around tony hell i didn't realize that that's rotten honestly when it comes to insurance i used to have myself very well covered with insurance [Music] but in the last few years i figured no i'm just going to keep the cash in the bank and if things go wrong they go wrong and i pay my be my own insurance company because it just seems like you know most people will get done over by the insurance companies one way or another there's always some sort of weasel that works out how to deny your claim yeah i think i'll ultrasonic this one damn it i really didn't want to but looks like i'm gonna have to you got put out of business man that's rough you can't get started again i mean like there was about two and a half to five thousand dollars to get started again or just sort of just like kill the desire you know sometimes large events like that can just sap your willingness to bother investing again and i mean i totally get that sometimes you take it as a sign of like okay time to move to a new venture for making money i think i'll take up insurance selling since you're oh sweetie right okay ah yes please i'll have a toast uh i write tomato and cheese on toast and uh with regards to that person asking i already replied to them and told them no i don't do it but there is someone in towns with who will and so i've sent them on their way didn't realize you're there sweetie ah down the wrong hole i gotta pay attention to what i'm doing i don't think we'll be having toasty i think it'll just it'll be toast all right all really got left to do tonight um i'll do that smc reball and that's about it oh good you got your flux any yeah i've still got a couple of tubes in my order thankfully okay that's prep there for tomorrow um yeah i'll just i did mention that i had sent her on to the next person i'll send you a message back on facebook or later having to use your name so you actually take notice of what i'm saying that's when you know i'm serious okay so this is a 165 it's one we pulled off a board because we weren't sure if the board was working or not well the smc was working or not we didn't have a change in behavior so we're assuming that this smc is actually going to be okay what have you done to your headphones oliver crikey you already blow the speakers out on the macbook 1502 now you what have you done to your headphones you're gonna have to upgrade you to something like no no something with power dennis she's actually got sennheiser's at the moment and i've got another set of sennheisers that i might try for her we generally only use sennheiser in this house insofar as consumer headphones go yeah this is a really disgusting looking smc that's because i let it float around in the crud this should already be all leaded solder so hopefully i don't do too much work on this one just got to clean out all that flux we don't want it bubbling up and messing with our reflow you can have a little bit there but you really want to try and reduce as much as possible because it does very effectively wick up along the side of the chip when it's getting hot yeah that's good enough no more junk on there all right let's see everybody's getting excited bring out the old audiophile talk and people lose their heads okay 20 air 350 temperature should be good okay so we're just going to put two little corner shots in so we've got holder for the stencil okay one that doesn't matter that that one's off there [Music] it really really really does not matter because the only purpose that uh i've got a piece of junk in there the only purpose of those initial ones is just simply to give us a stencil alignment that what we don't need is junk on the stencil [Music] there so it just lets this holds the stencil in place while i'm doing what i've got to do all right let me put our ipa on pull down some roughly enough balls that's probably a bit mini that oh well and we just gently rub until the stencil is satisfied with what it's got there we've got one missing two missing uh uh wait is it yeah there [Music] yep that's all good the steve was it damage or was it just junk all right that's hot enough now for me to do what i've got to do [Music] also picked up a ball annoyingly [Music] probably put a bit too much flux on there and you can see a couple of them were wanting to become yeah this is what happens when you put down too much flux well we'll find out if it was damaged or not shortly hey sweetie i'll just wash my hands eh sorry i love juice right um i'll use paper towel dry off mmm nice now this is just australian um cheddar it's mature cheddar but it's australian and it's a decent sized juice box um certainly it's a nice um it's a nice vegetarian type meal um not quite sure what it is actually i think it's basil yeah i'm pretty sure it's basil hey ryan good night sorry well i haven't had a chance to catch up for you lately so i'll be able to send you an email margarita well good thing we got the smc done when we did the only thing this is missing is cracked pepper and that's because we haven't we've ran out we've got more on order it just hasn't arrived yet seriously didn't know what basil was yeah yeah usually like basil and oregano with uh italian food and stuff like that no it's okay i'm almost done anyway and it's fine sorry just talking to a leader hmm i'm completely wrong it's actually parsley my goodness i can't believe i thought that was basil i think it's because it's got um onion powder on it and sort of through my senses it's parsley it's always good when you get top of the season tomorrows as the ones that have got that really fresh burst slight um sort of acid tang not uh yeah they haven't started to degenerating that powdery sort of anything like that usually the ones that about golf ball size they can be absolutely spectacular it was the onion powder that was throwing me with the basil and the parsley hmm hmm the tomatoes are pretty good definitely get better but for generic store-bought type thing they're perfectly good pardon me there we go thank you a leader pretty much all we have to do here now is just check that smc and bag it and target really and that looks pretty much perfect to me i don't see any problems with it i'll just have to heat it up a little bit so that i can wash that flux off trying to grow my toothbrush went to damn it need that toothbrush ah there it is soda bridge weighing three out of what a sort of lousy judge are you you're one of those olympic scorer people that when everyone else is given a 10 you decide nah stuff and i'm going to give you a two because i feel all jaded people shouldn't get tens is that is that how we're playing it you think i'm going to be able to see that when it comes to no that's visible enough yep i can read that as 165. let's see if jim's camera can yep jim's camera can read it as 165 so that's good enough for me the carlos 165 means it's for an 8200 165 macbook air board so um one of these type well this is a 3437 and on the back every one of these boards has an smc on it a system management controller but you can't take um you can't mix and match system management controls between boards as a general rule so if you need to replace one off a 3437 board it has to be from another 3437 and so this one here came from a 165 board so i've marked at 165 so i know that i need one i've got one there see the trouble is if you don't mark them when you take them off they actually all look very much the same you can't tell what the what board they're meant for once you take them off the board and you've forgotten where it came from so that's why you got to mark them i don't have a white pen um not a white pen that's going to be that fine and i can read that just fine anyway maybe i should make this to be my smc box i've got quite a few other smc's and they're all in little zippy bags what about you yes indeed soda fills the place of being an enemy quite nicely so these are the new ones you can now buy from aliexpress if you ask you can get smc's pulled from specific boards but i still don't trust them okay so is this 3437 this is another 165. let's stick it in here okay random bits and pieces i'll never another 34 37 trouble is 34 37 so i've got plenty of it's the 165's that you almost always are running short on and so you end up with this cool colossal pile of donor boards with only one chip missing and that is the smc all right let's pack that away we're done for tonight that is the end of the show at least we did manage to get one machine up and running um the the 1425 is not playing ball with me i don't know what to think and to be honest it's actually cheaper i was checking on aliexpress it's cheaper for me to just go and buy a whole new uh board for the 1425 than it is to even service it so i might just do that instead it just it makes business sense that i get the board replace it customer is happy they have to stop around and then i'll have myself a donor board 1425 if need be so all right i am out of here thank you very much for everyone for sticking around what do we go for well we just went over the two hour mark which is unfortunate but these things happen i will catch you all the next time i don't know what's coming in tomorrow but uh most of what i've got left here really is just a case of marking it off as cannot fix and you know cleaning it packing it and shipping it and dealing with the people sort of asking me can you please try it's like i have been trying for you just and i just can't fix it so anyway i'm out of here you all take care until next time i'll catch you later
