WIFD: Macbook Air A1465 with BIOS issues

akise Justin Carl rather a Gustavo the feeling this chip is actually maybe viable it's a CD 3215 just family on my desk and I know that the last travel I did with those the chips were ended up being fine oh this is the other one because when I replaced them there was no change given the price of them it's worth Miri bowling those and having them on standby in case I need them shift a bunch of crap and scratch my heart because by golly gosh the hay fevers driving me insane I have to go do some mowing this afternoon and once that grass touches me and everything it's like it it's it's a rough night for me well let's see yeah yangko who else we got looks like I've missed everybody is I was busy scratching my nose hey Bryce hey you're up late Marc Mick rather patio patooie Guam don't think I've ever had anyone from Guam before hey max young mr. Moore hello welcome Jim Polk Rafael solder is here all right yep this is out of the ultrasonic cleaner have a look put it back together I've got another machine to do after this but I thought I'd reassemble this one while I'm at it just call you Peter all right then hey Steven G it's looks yeah bad things are and I was lucky someone left a comment after the video finish that I'll put this cap in the wrong place I actually have it bridging between these two pads so it was just a person no effect fortunately it's only a point one microfarad cap so it's for high frequency high frequency decoupling so it wasn't a critical loss but yeah I was good to still get it fixed up hey miss Jeff feels - hi hey mr. Taylor thanks for sorting out those containers for me I appreciate that yeah you know if there's anything bad that we've missed with the off sonic Oh rule looks pretty good this is using the water only wash so your ultrasonic it and then you just wash it in deionized or distilled water whichever you have available distilled is better but that's pretty expensive stuff for some people including me and you don't put it through an alcohol rinse you just simply wash off the ultrasonic liquid with water and then dry the board and that's it so it takes about 20 minutes at 120 for me on a heating pad the ones that you use to ice separate iPad screens and it does a pretty good job as you can see it's pretty damn clean really I'm happy with that that's good beard is getting thick I agree I really didn't need to show you that I also want to here cut this this is getting a bit long so we'll just put this thing back together hopefully everything will work okay there's a bit of a thing you'd watch out for looks like that's not good exactly it easy from one of the labels is falling into the oh that's not good a few cycles of the rain will probably fix that up it Stewart Menzies no it's gone oh yeah enough good to see you I'll just bring my nose into the eyepiece I think it was easy from up here all right what's looking like I know no way no I wouldn't mind getting one of those little three liter compressors or even just a airbrushing one I don't really want a full-size compressor in this workshop they're the cheap enough I'm just gonna as always just get one if you wanted to you'd be able to save a decently sized lunch in their view yes I guess I would actually I did contact the person about the solid-state drive initially they were interested but the cost starts racking up pretty quickly so I let them do it themselves if they start from scratch just from a beer solid-state drive and reinstall recall it yeah I've got so many things just to add on to this one we're bringing this chassis up for ya if they start with just like a 250 Drive and then reinstall knock offs then they can do it pretty cheaply themselves hey NW Tesla no so looking for sticker which probably will not stick properly now especially not put on incorrectly okay this is the sort of stuff that ends up wasting a lot of my time in the day but you got to do it and you can't just spend all day re bowling SMC's even if you want to and I guess that's why you hire people damn it put some glasses on Paul now there's no warranty on that sticker but it's just more for reference in case someone needs a serial number or something I just prefer to try and put back it's got the serial number the motherboard number the EMC all that sort of thing it's just a convenience thing yes that's why I should hire someone at some point but until I get this house and that's not sticking so that's not gonna go on it yeah until I actually have the deeds this property and can do things with it I probably won't be looking at hiring in anybody it's a little hard to set up things when it's not your property and it's not a property design for design for staff to come in and out of this this place is a bit of a fortress to stop the ether kids getting out thanks Travis yeah I'm just going the other week except I can't see more than without this far they're intentionally that way just for close-up so I can actually do my iphone screw jobs because that was the biggest problem I was having so be basically just going by feel when it came to iPhones putting the screws in and out at the screens and that's fine I mean it's good to be able to just do it but I feel but it is occasionally a nice thing to be able to see what you're screwing just to make sure you're picking up the right bits and pieces putting them in the right place particular when you've got things up the 7 and the 8 where they chop and change the try ring around all right that's be good there should be a game Jim escaped from the fortress but this place is fairly secured and it's going to become more secure once I can own the place because right now we just have mesh fencing sort of have 75 75 550 mesh and I wish to replace that colorbond eight-foot high through to the ground and make it completely impervious all right all right looks like blurs decided to be the teenager of the day who can claim who can blame okay where's my thing okay Lisa it's cooler now given that lose nearly 10 o'clock at night it is 10 o'clock at night 10 past 10 in fact putting that feeling I guess you get used to having to put the things in earlier with the other boards as well as all the various bits and pieces that have to go with it ah trap that cable again back on the 1466 and so many others where you got to put those rubbish shrouds on the heatsink before you drop the board in and the number of times you forget to do that is everything but that microphone in damaras anything 11:20 yeah Jen cabbed it should be supported anything I think from ten fifty or ten sixty onwards in fact but certainly 11:28 would have it if you find you get a file that isn't reading just send it through to me as usual but with these glasses I can actually put in most these flexes without having a go under the microscope they're not very strong glasses but they're just give me that little bit of extra confidence in most cases okay we're gonna go back to the microscope and the trouble is you'll be able to get an idea of how little different series actually my vision because I'm wearing the glasses and I'm focusing to what I want under the microscope and you'll notice on screen it's not that's severely different to my unassisted vision what's going on here so an obstruction in there it's behaving that something's obstructing it no just reluctant maybe the ultrasonic sort of made it a bit dry okay hey Harold as a gun so it's nice to see people drop in okay where's my t69 t4 t6 we are on our way I'll take a blue one of us has to be the teenager so I'm glad it was you we all think don't ever that shorts Krugers and it is not there it's here yeah once we're done with this do you have another MacBook I got to deal with the likes I'd like to try and have as few open MacBook systems a few jobs open as I can otherwise my shells fill up and I start forgetting what I'm doing well hopefully we'll get bombs do it partner at work force me to get glasses after a pursuit with stolen cars on the radio yeah okay just passing so you really are telling me that's useful okay looks like I've jumped a screw somewhere that's not a problem since they're all pretty much the same the most yes where our drivers some strain away again how to do the giveaway I don't know what youtubes requirements are for Facebook requirements are or anything no unfortunately probably limited to Australians I'm sorry but in fairness that's punishment for all the years as a kid when I would see competitions come up and it would always be for residents of the United States only and I'll be like damn you so for all those years I missed out now I get to dish it out some payback and so for Australians only okay you're a bit of a mess here uh-huh it goes yeah Matt let's so yeah I'm giving away this box of where drivers it's a six box six pack it's got all the drivers for the iPhone it's got the pintle a of the Tri wing and the pH double-o pH travel oh that sort of an one flat head driver I don't know what you use the flat head driver for maybe for flicking up connectors if you Jason vilmer from STS personally I can't do that I know he does it willingly but it would drive me insane so yeah I gotta work out how I'm gonna do a giveaway for these and they're really good they come with the holder I really do enjoy these drivers that accept the trick is how to do the giveaway I've got a few other things I want to give away some old equipment I've got a bellman ten megahertz LCD scope which basically I never use anymore I used to use it for rs-232 signaling and stuff yeah okay well we're done here something neat right and probably going to give away two of my power supplies as well once my new ones arrive so yeah I got a few giveaways just not sure how to go about yes still why would I give them to you if you've already got them that's like me when I mean I admit when the box arrived today I want to keep this I'm not giving this away this is mine mine mine mine here you get selfish like that even though I've already got two sets myself it's like oh the box is so nicely got to keep it get a collect at all I'm fortunate there's no talks drivers in those ones so it's actually no good for MacBooks funnily enough so I do wish they'd have a say about t1 through to t8 set that they don't seem to but you can buy them individually so it's not a problem somebody found some mac mini board view files really I use a flathead screwdriver but the standoff screws oh god yeah I use the standoff driver maybe where's my hip thank you southern one day anything I ever was order of fries from McDonald's did you really win in that case was that just you became a victim there is a youtube program that was randomly selects I thought says will vain but I couldn't find it the only one I kept finding was something about it was an external website that YouTube is now blocking so I thought well there can't be a good thing I suppose it wouldn't be too hard all I have to do is perhaps I got a couple of choices I can make people email me a message saying I want this driver and then I randomly pick a number between one and how many emails of Cup and then that's it now let's put the battery in and see if it goes killing I could blame I please tell me up at the right yeah but the right max I've been worried there for an instant so it's gonna be more drama just trying to work out how to do this than actually doing it I know there are certain legalities in Australia as well that you can't force people to have to sign up to something which is fine like so yeah I'll just get people to me then you got to stop deeply people spamming you trying to increase their chances and stuff like that so I might have to get people to drop the email address and the physical delivery address or something I don't know I've got to come up with something reading more cholesterol from Macker yep I'll be about it learn the color you all right we got one screen missing in this setup and remember down up there okay and we retain the container to the stack will let us pray that we have a bomb we're going to get it on the probably have to charge it up oh no it went nice straight to the point to and immediately we got charged pick a video first name city state actually get most comical as if you got to start picking on an actual quality of the content that they contribute them it gets difficult then the biases creep in all that sort of trash Oh English hedgehogs here hello yes two keys are missing and it looks like the actual seesaw systems missing I have one one I might have one of these but at least the replicator on this side as well so it's not a problem to tilt this up so we don't review a personal information that doesn't want to be revealed paintbrush okay 59% recharging looks good ooh just check see if there's a password on this there is and roof charging is happening I can see it's already picking up sorry I know this is boring oh man spinning hard drives very much outdated now there's nothing Hey click is working seems good I'm happy with that the anything is it can be a bit of a problem when you're trying to see if you fixed a clique fault and you're waiting on the hard drive oh god everything's beating slowly shut down see if it works without it still there marvellous every time I see a fool of you here why don't you have any shares and Systema yeah I buy a great deal of this stuff what I mostly do around here is every two or three weeks just actually every month or so the local shop supermarket has the Systema range on half-price and whenever that happens I usually go in and buy about ten of everything that I need mr. linens decided to be critical now of my place I do need a shave I just been bit lazy lately oh my goodness uTorrent has come up that's all I don't want you tyrant mutant rather shut down shut down it okay finally the long-term storage hard drive is much safer than the solid state yeah I suppose that can be debated I suppose because you retaining magnetic properties rather than charge so yes will concur with that I still would like to keep a couple of their junk on their screen just rainy bits of scrap all right that's fixed that's done I've done my job there now I can put that away safely put that in the outgoing queue shelf and now pick up the next macbook Menezes everything's going to the cloud anyway or pretty close to it should I cover this person's details probably so we got 1425 1465 rather and I've got a bar strip on the back so no point trying to power that one up so we're over blowing our exposure look up 60 terabyte magnetic hard drives coming soon yeah I'm glad to see that happen in a hurry and we've really struggled to get out of the 8 and 10 I mean I'm all for it I really could do with some much bigger hard drives because most of the machines that come in here PC machines or iPhones things like that I will tend to back up the data before I do anything with them so it's very easy to chew up you know 1024 bytes Sonya I'm here Sonya well that's been chewed up oh hi Lois head sorry bowling SMC's it's not that bad I guess we all have our pet peeves this looks like a freakin disaster we're really battery off you're just straight away take this board out see what's going on with the bass area their doctor no well you can always go back to things up ills seagate st 255 combine it with the glorious big clack noise that you make when you switch on your IBM XT or PC first thing in the morning go make yourself a cup of coffee while you wait for whatever execute and config sister start up the batteries cactus man air bags were almost ready to deploy on that one Jason everyone say later Jason STS telecom just the person I was mocking earlier Jason I was just mocking you because of the incredible ability you have with using a flat bladed screwdriver to knock off to knock off connectors in iPhones something that would it makes my toes curl really I mean you also do a purple a good job of it but it still makes my toes curl 4-2-3-1 make sure that news this 4-2-3-1 you replace a person's machine you can't replace the data are you listening to the practical Commerce ha ok I suppose I'll see a friendship denial now on Facebook I'll go looking for you and so this person cannot be found hey Christian see you get yourself another stream so you didn't miss out too much in the first one now I'm not sure if this one's a absolutely a bios failure or whether it's something else that may be a bad trace or something like that which is why I want the board out so I can have a look was this at 164 this is 164 or 30 34 35 okay Oh longer connector there 34 35 don't do a lot of these 11 inch ones I've got one or two of them myself as machines that I should probably get rid of but I do tend to hold on to them thinking maybe that might need one just to do comparisons and things out there Jason is number 1 or number 2 or top 10 for what is he number 1 on over to 4 okay we've lost the lock connector for the keyboard backlight flex so watching like easy to replace what else have I got missing here I'm not singing I think everything was really coming out is it no one screw it was gonna be gentle now we're gonna break things good yeah the whole flippin heck this is gonna be fun you know remember punching holes in three and a half inch learn about the three and a half inch for definitely on the 5 minute quarters taken chair other side even bought myself a not sure what I did used to do with the tree and hearth is as there was you'd use for dose and then another formatting tool and it would let you yeah I'm not actually complaining really I enjoy this sort of a challenge so what we've got here is a cluster job it's not that bad it's not that bad Beck lightballs good so we just got a bunch of nasty corrosion got picked up wiped out the BIOS traces looks like it's taking out something next to it I'll get back to that in a second I just want to do my big over all this here that's gonna be trouble I don't even know what doesn't say ulcers power good but yeah okay I can see why this might have had issues see how there's this little stalk here this via stalk that I'm exposing my guess is yeah what's going on there so it goes to here and it disappears down here so they wouldn't put a stalk there unless it was going off to somewhere else otherwise I just have a pad so what's probably happening is either that's supplying whatever it is that we need or it's sending it off to another part of the board and never the power of the board's not getting it that's Peter burn your money watching repairs well thank you Oh more than 100 G's yeah we're gonna get fight time okay so what would we say this was 34 what the brains failing on me 34 35 shows that ain't doing enough open just realize an opt-out chat yeah it has her proud work on it okay boss okay see so that's an important pin that's your SPI lime or one of them so without that working all the way through probably cause trouble let's see what else who uses that so I have a feeling that the ROM chip is probably okay but it needs the connections done properly on it to make it work again if chip selective and then this was perhaps a little too thin it will break pretty quick and easy yeah it it just needs a bit of a reboot plus all this has to come off see how that's just flaking off that's because the corrosion has gotten under there you gotta clear that all away otherwise it will come right on back it's like cancer this stuff now stood I'm guessing that really the the bass chip itself is gonna be fine and it's attached to the case will be okay at least some Demerol hoping so because otherwise it will have to construct a new one and really don't want to do that getting this sick of would cancer other ways more important right now it's really gotten into everything that's everywhere could be some corrosion under that that will check that out later so as nice having a good sharp exacto knife just knocks the tops right off this stuff all right paint stripper hey yeah that'd be a fast way of doing it let's see ten minutes without talking about flex so tell me Paul who provided you a nice little software oh I don't know some random Australian outback dude parent his name is Paul Daniel was not to be mixed up with the magician who's dead from the UK yeah this if you're a professional bored view if you're a professional bored repair then consider flex board view yes you can get and use free board reprograms out even bored view which have the same codebase originally oh this might be a broken one we also support I found files now we don't have as many as ethics W or any of the others yet but we do have we do support a few of the most important ones Jason Vilma actually uses flex board you now to when he can obviously for the ones that we don't have he has to switch backs to zxw Jason you still around get on your salesman's hat and start pitching for me okay that resistors gonna need replacing probably Oh Peter Henk Oh how do you become repayment any good story about my background I don't really have a much of a background on this I've always been into this sort of stuff as in inventing repairing or I have come to the idea that I really am more of a tool maker engineer inventor type person so ya know in kids about these traces they're gone as so wouldn't say that bored use my SRP we went to I wouldn't say that repair work is my primary thing but it's something I do to support my habits of wanting to invent things then this is really like a root canal saw an ad for you Avenue chief for Paul Daniels and you look so skincare cream that's hilarious it's weird but no brush off knowing I'm sin of the crap that's there man's drowning on alcohol Oh fellow Australians I found that what brain does it have methylated spirits who produces it I keep thinking hunters but I think it's something else damn it yeah there's a there's a brain of methylated spirit in getting Australia and I was happy to notice that it's got absolutely no methyl alcohol you know it's just 98 o 95 percent ethyl alcohol a bit of denaturing agent and water which is really good so I'm gonna start using that a little bit more now why can't I remember the name of the damn brain though it's the one you get in Woolworths Australian Lewis diggers bigger sister brain yeah its diggers methylated spirits and if you check the safety sheets and everything like that there was absolutely no mention of methyl alcohol anywhere in it and all the warnings pertaining to ethyl alcohol basically just yeah normal drinking alcohol issues and of course there's the bittering agent that's in there so good luck trying to drink that without chucking your guts up it was spewing out there are some pretty damn good bittering agencies those yeah diggers yeah yeah it seems to be looks at 95% ethyl and now your methyl in it and that's really the main thing I don't want methyl alcohol around here yeah I am just looking at my alternatives I mean I don't mind ice a problem but the fumes are a little heavier than what ethyl alcohol fumes are in terms of yeah they give me more of a headache and whatnot bit less pleasant to the human body speaking of which time to put on the lung saver this is quite a creative miss this one every time I think I'm finished scraping away I'll find something else that I need to scrape and the biggest concern is this via here what I'm gonna do about it what tangled up in that and possible okay it's not dead just need some suitable revitalization I'm not going to trust those resistors so I'll take them away do I use alcohol to find hot spots yes I do yep man that tres just finished on me too yeah sir I just lifted that resistor off mr. thicknose resistor Oh I've been bashing the tip of my Jaso - into the desk that's pretty cool effect am i Sarah is it Oh Catherine - hello gymn I don't have a thermal-imaging camera I'm not that rich and I'd seen it by it seemed to be putting the money towards this house getting this house than getting a thermal imager for now more junky junk stuff coming up priorities right now parties okay so we do have a tiny you probably can't see it in the camera there's a tiny bit of contact there I'm not going to work out how I'm gonna do this from is there's just not enough to really grab on to how much flux do you consume in a month not that much probably no more than what Louis consumes in a day I'm fairly conservative with our flex consumption much easier to do wicking that way than it is to actually try to drag the wick across the board surface and things I didn't quite get that little piece of wire that I wanted No the small sort of all should be a stick to it the trouble is I kind of I need to put the ball on run a wire then put the chip down and hopefully putting the chip down will not displace that ball that's always fun so this one here probably was meant together there and now on to the [Music] trying to think what a natural point would be to put it away be okay so that one there wear the pants for this one [Applause] [Music] now the kiddies are doing well they're a little bit boxed in at the moment so they're kind of complaining a lot about that which is not helping my sleep at all as they will they do waking up at some awful hours in the morning and it's starting to wear a little bit I mean thinking me wrong I love my kitties but yeah it's starting to wear me down a bit I really need my sleep and I'm not getting it so I'm just trying to decide both aesthetically and structurally the best way I want to do this cats being cats that's pretty much true they're too this is one of those jobs where while it's not technically complicated you still want to try your best with it it's more just a case of going through the motions getting things done right making sure not that damn cancer is around and it says still there's little bits of it just floating around we look after a lot of cats who not all of them are Al's we just look out from trying to help them we're kind of like a halfway house for cats that looks like that trace is actually it's got a nice sized pad underneath here just don't know whether it's worth going down to it or not so I maybe you can see that on the camera or not but you can see there's this pad sitting under there on the next layer then again there could actually be some other signal and the view is actually going through it so maybe not such a good idea for me to just go in and drill down on it I really don't trust that remaining bit of trace there I Katherine micro is doing really well looks like considering that the state he was in a year ago we're very very happy I do need to monitor his sugar levels a lot his blood sugar level a lot closer but kind of hoping that you know we can get into this place or get the decent space soon so that he's got more room and he can relax because right now I think the stress of being cooped up in basically shoebox is elevating his blood sugar level and we'd like to get him off the insulin if possible but to do that we do have to get his blood sugar levels way back down now what size resistors of these meant to be [Music] 5900 you got suck 59 really what size are you - er ones 59 201 you're for Oh Cheers okay see you later max thanks for dropping in [Music] my sir we've got a few I'm not exactly sure of how many put it that way yeah we're good a few it varies from day to day too because not all of them are inside the property some of them we just have to hope for the best and they're on the outside of the property still and we try to bring them in we can't force them to come in too easily because they will just cause trouble and then get out some of them just walk in and never want to go back out again that's great like halo was one of those last year but a lot of them don't really appreciate being cooped up inside too much not inside but just in the containment zone yeah I know focus is a bit shoddy here right now even for me it's shoddy there's a lot of prep work I'm doing here it's a bit boring on a aha that is not what I wanted to do well I have to come no that's one we'll start with it still waiting what can you clean up the mess oh yeah it's a little bit of time okay let's fill it in nicely we got a visitor on the bench table right now hopefully Hoshi is a bug that will probably stink if I made him so I'm gonna have to let him just I did and away he goes after getting me out of here I was going to find something that's not going to aggravate him were you done Betty they covered in the trash from around here mom great so you got my tweezers you ain't got the cardboard box but you got on the tweezers the stink beetle yeah like I said that's what I didn't want to irritate him has even let me know pretty damn quick that he wasn't happy with me it'd be good if you get bugs to do your rework for you wouldn't it just say they look need so tickly if you can get him to go under the BGA chips and repair some balls under the BGA imagine how cool that would be that was so very useful have yourself a trained army BGA repair bugs bugs to fix the bugs okay so we're gonna get some wine now I'm probably gonna use my yeah use my lint swipe this I'll see you okay this Lintz wire it's actually a it's a multi strand wire but all the strands are insulated and it's used for antennas for shortwave radio things out there what's nice about it is that the strands are fine they're all insulated and the insulation at least the stuff that I'm getting it burns off a lot easier than Cu normal sort of stuff as I find I often have to put too much heat into the wire and see how quickly that just let itself get the enamel burned off and then tinned that's why I like this stuff there's a very quick too takes order as it probably should shuffle that over just a wee smidge more I'll give it a bit more length and then I can push it back buggy nanobots let me trouble they weren't as a gun yeah I get this stuff from some guy in Russia or Ukraine I think it is I've had a video about it in the past I've got a couple of schools of it and it's pretty much all you ever need ever not the prettiest but we'll we will do the job now you won't fix the nanobot you'll eliminate them and then one day you find out that the quite Sentinel and advanced and then you've got the Rick and Morty car battery scenario all over again okay I kind of need to push that back up against the end cap of the resistor just going to hold the resistor it looks like I've lifted the resistor yeah that's good this will have to be green covered because there is no way that these resistors are going to have the strength it's very gonna move another rude lucky me well at least I meant to get a decent sized blob there and there normally I do not subscribe to the idea of using a blob of glue or metal wherever to build strength but in this case I think it's acceptable it's gonna push this back down it didn't quiet it lifted up when I was doing the other one yeah now the real trick dealing with that little tiny ball let's see if we can float just trying to think I'm gonna go about this one I don't really think I suppose I can preach in this war I'll do it that way this doesn't have a lot of strength yes I have deliberately overshot fortunately because what I want to do is I've overshot but then I want to leave it back over it so I've got a place to capture a sort of all I shouldn't even need us all just drop some paste in there and should be good I'm probably not chanting identical move this will break this wire off until I've actually put the bass chip down I'm thinking there might have to your breaking away - jeez you're disconnected as well so with another one to do yep am i a tricky no I'm not I got nothing against Ricky's but I'm just not I don't tend to be a group type person so I don't seem to align to any particular you know Star Wars Trekkie or anything I just nothing just a drifter I'm probably not even nearly enough to be a Linux person a proper Linux person probably do not have the required qualifications for that status it's not quite hair one that sit down it's a bit tricky here because look up alcohol just flowing around on the board and it ruins the action of the flux of course after all that work you dinglebat I'm dust in the wind that's a bit like at this now proof of the fact that I really am NOT a trick is the fact that I actually like the new ones like discovery and the new movies I mean I didn't mind the old ones either but I'm more than happy to watch the new stuff which does seem to cause a little bit of rage with some people like how dare you you clean yourself a TechNet is arnaud ah I haven't seen the pic out sir I have seen avatars but so I am somewhat curious to see how they do with that especially if he's involved with it he's a good actor son-of-a-gun you're just fighting with me all the way on this one come on you know what I want to do so just do it okay that almost got it perfect then except it's not I'll do it's in a bad position but that will do for now I said it's got a spear survived the BGA beam I mean the vast being put back down so that's a tall order for no is this pg8 yeah why do I keep saying BG I really don't know bias focus about stuffy thank goodness they sent it to me hopefully it hasn't been punched through though with the corrosion which it probably has let's have a look no it's being punched through son of a gun you just suck eggs so I'm gonna have to copy this turn you on goddamn sorry hopefully I can oh wow it's eating through and everything alright let's see if we can copy this off that's seriously bad now hit by something and I don't want to have to do something drastic what decap this or anything just to get to the bombed wires shouldn't have to I can always just rebuild it I suppose to prepare not to that's good that one's good too there's got this last one here a little more scrapey scrapey you might have some luck a user I prayed oh yeah welcome back to me on uh little more soda as long as it doesn't run up the team mark it's trouble again that's gonna be good enough I'm going to load this onto a reader you have to read it off let's see if it flux on that nice box with where our drivers from one [Music] that's the wrong size this is the one that I want laughs I know there's no flux on there and it doesn't bother me not at this point now what the down don't need to on this one because the ground pad here matches and see how matches that's why I get these particular adapters there is the adapter that came with the programmer and it definitely needed you to put the captain tape down but this one does not it would help with mr. Daniels aligned it a bit better though that's like a you're just hot air into position yes Kelvin I'm left-handed ambidextrous really but yeah I mean predominant left-handed cowboy I'm not be curious to see how I go if the languages think because I am it is taken a fair bit of brainpower for me to learn Chinese I will not lie about that okay looks like that's on [Music] let's have a programmer is actually active [Music] which pins which pin-up art [Music] okay [Music] [Music] what chipper we got here twenty-five qo6 for by E for twenty-five qo6 for VAR e for I'll juice now see blue let's forgive hat is made list of devices myself Wow hold on school qo6 pool I probably do it so last night [Music] I prefer not to do in order to TechEd most of them cart without risking the chipping some point and here we go I probably could have put that chip down after I cleaned it spins up but I prefer to not do that I prefer to burn it to a new chip and then use that stick the new one you wanna learn Cantonese you're left to learn Chinese first and then you'll have to learn how to pronounce it speaker that fast Cantonese I'm learning it as Mandarin so yeah I don't know whether it's the better or the worse option but that's the way I'm going I'm using a site called duolingo pretty impressed with it my wife's learning another language as well just for the fun of it cause I mean we don't have a lot of time in our lives okay I'm supposed to have some fresh new BIOS chips here ah there you are okay it's all done see if this one's gonna be any good yep I'll do it is it the right size there yep Oh beauty so to swap those over get this one off the heat gun try quake with aji quite handy haven't autostart but the Spanish is one of the easier ones to learn a reason I don't learn Spanish is because I really didn't have any personal reason to do so but I've looked at it and I mean it certainly seems quite reasonable to learn it surprise most people are in America aren't bilingual it's no real point ha tearing this down all you need to do is just damn up the soldier on the side you can see when it's wick tin but [Music] and we should now be able to write that let's see a different chip time well I will see here we go the force if this doesn't work then all I'll do is just pull off another chip from another board like this I'll dig around in my pile now just in case 3437 should do the same trick anyway oh great I pull out of 165 of all things normally every time I wonder 34 37 oh sorry once expired I'll get it 34 37 now I wanted one and what do you know it gives me a 165 yeah I got one here anyway if this doesn't work now what I will do is take the original chip put it into the carrier I never ever reuse the original chips I prefer to keep them as a reference just in case things go all wrong [Music] so I just bag you that up and note down what job it's for throw it back with the original job parts and leave a big Millie them Jack this is just a program called mini probe with the Linux and obviously it's meant to work with it's meant to work with these particular you know mini pro programmers it does a pretty good job let's see if the reading of the code comes up all right if it comes up the perfect Vera five and I will consider it to be okay Sonya you can have a Babel Fish stop trying to relive your hitchhikers days [Music] we've already written the code that was 2 minutes but now we're waiting for it to read and I suppose verifies I could have made that not do the verification process but we may as we'll just spend the extra minute waiting for these are just the programs you get on eBay for under 100 bucks I think they you get a complete kit with all sorts of adapters for about $80 now even on Stas 42 the answer to everything the program of verifications okay the program of doesn't care what type of BIOS it is it as far as its concerned it's just talking to a SPI device and that's it the only reason why you're trying to have the right part number and whatnot is just so that you get the parameters for the speed and the voltages at least close enough I had some flux to keep this thing a little bit cooler while I take it off because these BIOS chips they're in everything max pcs all sorts of things probably the worst bios or EEPROM type chips are the ones you get in the iPhones because they look like little they just love that little four pin glass MOSFETs and it's not until after you have lost it that you realize how important it was I'm sure you'll pin one down there this is gonna be tricky very tricky I may do the green set now so that things sit tight no means I don't clean up things a little bit but it could be careful cleaning up because of a brush too hard and I'll break what I've done like that yeah it's not broken it's just painted it okay I might just cut those off them so Dan getting snagged for the cleaning action now I do prefer to do things like the programming in consoles oops yeah control there but then again I'm biased because I do like the console for a great deal of things B now to just get a log of what's going on as it happens in sequence straight away as plain text there's a lot of value in V now to get that okay let's get ourselves some green goo and this my friends is why you charge a good amount of money even for simple jobs like can you just change the boss yeah well maybe it's gonna take a little longer than just changing the BIOS every now and then you may get lucky then the job goes quick but they are really the oddity rather than the norm the norm is that you just have hell on earth like this every time so I get that thing the tricky bits going to be I might have to scrape it away after I've put the chip down well we'll cure it like that and then we'll scratch back what we need and that should stop the resistors jumping around Crypton ah yes indeed okay so ever need a TV like now which means things going a little bit boring I don't have one of those UV lasers I'm not actually willing to even use one the main reason I don't like using the UV lasers because Evie's not great to have in your eyes and it can be so easy to accidentally have reflections come off something and then shoot yourself in the eye shut your eye out baby I mean probably not dealing with multi watt lasers but you don't need much and being UV it doesn't take much okay let's put our 59 resistors back into this horrible horrible set pink on yeah I recognize some of the characters on the Chinese characters and then we wait another minute Stuart yeah once you get asleep yeah I've got a mini torch I've got a UV mini torch like this but I prefer the USB powered one that I've got simply because the fact that I don't have to make sure the batteries grew it or anything out there and it's on a gooseneck so makes it very easy for me to just put the board under it fold the gooseneck down and let it do its job okay it looks like I still got stuff okay in there so this work yeah that works too oops blinded the audience not good get UV now hardness yes pretty much the same thing is this seize that done its job but that's pretty good all right now to see if this will actually work up and get ready to put that chip down just fluff up the pads a little bit no real point fluffing that one up that's a big fat ground anyway and this one's gonna be marginal no matter what we try so we're just gonna have to cross our fingers and hope let me see I can drop down a little more you know I'm asking for trouble [Music] there's one resistor to the right of that area that looks a bit sad yeah that probably is there's a few of them around yeah you're talking about this one over here perhaps it's actually got more oxidization than anything else but there is a couple of sad ones that I have to fix up later oh you lousy yeah fifty-fifty don't forgive a little this trash to fix up to this resistor here I'm not overly worried about it it does look a little bit sad but it is more oxidization of the lead yeah this one here doesn't look like quite got enough solder in there so I'll try and squeeze it fill it in this one kind of pushed the ball out a bit much which worries me we'll try to get some solder in there I'll probably use some paste and then apply the iron tip to it [Music] some post-poll not another freaking excavator bucket full [Music] let's go get the right angle Oh okay so maybe I'll just no your honor that took to it nicely it's not perfectly alone but I'm really not caring to be honest alright next step these chaps they may not be so bad we'll just resold there in camp see if they fall off if they do replace em if they don't everybody's happy well let disintegration there now they actually see my cage I just need a wash well that should be okay I'll just flex them up a bit more so is that a test pad or is that a veer into test pad ever see America now at this point I guess we power up and see what happens I'm going for the fence pin [Music] can't use my usual DC board if you use this I'm not gonna bother connecting anything much other than just to see if you get a fan spin at the stage the only thing I will plug in is my USB chipmunk tester will give me an idea what's happening on the CPU if anything certainly in make safe too and naturally makes like ones connected up okay you're out of here it was make safety please negative positive good see we go dream on and they've been spent 20 million 50 million it's trying to do something but something's holding the back something good a short or something going on because it's trying to come up but then shuts down straight away all right so I've got more dramas to deal with so if we've got something shonky so it's getting into s oh but then shutting right back down yeah that could be a little bit problematic there but but maybe that's a bit messy fix that up check the short to ground subject that wrong [Music] ray thank you very much for the 2-pound thank you stays for you on the internet for cuz I don't have a short there we could still have the problem of the maybe we're not getting our voltage there that we need I think I may have to take this DCM board out so that I can do my testing outside well because I don't really want to have to keep putting it back in yes yes you don't need the Internet yeah it's funny if I had bad days in wood I'm pretty sure it's not the fairly sure well on the other hand that is kind of butchered I think that should be cause in any trouble that's just the u.s. we that's got a welcome great big crack in it okay what's your board number I'm fairly sure I got one of these somewhere see 11 inch 13 inch 13 inch no good to me it's not very common d seem bored to have that's gonna be a problem 1369 nope that's no good to me even that crack coil housing though shouldn't cause that problem come on pull well not use not use crap well let's have a look around what I would love is if power supplies could indicate what the peak current experienced is regardless of how long or short the spike is because even though we see there's a couple of you I'm gonna pick some up even though we see say 80 million come up on the power supply that's often not really the true peak value a good example is the other night I was working on some 2 a1 boards and it was telling me about 80 million peak and I was pulsing but the true value was closer to about half an amp at 20 volts so I was getting 10 watts 10 more pulses coming through the board and so it made it fairly easy to actually find them with just a heartbeat thermal method so be in tune to know if this is exhibiting a higher instantaneous current role and if it is that would make it easier to track down possible glitch there's some pretty fluorescent wings I'm just having a quick look over see if I can spot anything that looks like a severely destroyed camp I don't think my Luck's gonna hold for that but but it really does feel like it's coming up and then shutting down due to an overcurrent situation there are a lot of these little very pretty bug wings a little bug egg cases it's almost downright alien to be honest well I should really be doing is pulling out the multimeter again down the rails and seeing what has got a short on them but you get lazy and you just sort of look for it there's any three thousand capacitors on here I'm not sure if the fan will spin without the bar so quite on this board in particular the piano was around hid knife Wednesday is it it is indeed thank you Jim hey Albert Einstein I'm not sure if the wrong chip would be I'm just gonna measure some voltages around the board see what we got [Music] yeah 342 holds nice and steady so that's good [Music] 3v3 sus again holding steady [Music] I sure didn't check that they were definitely all oh we made a mistake I don't know if it's enough to cause the problem but the resistor the third resistor this one up here oh wait we didn't replace that one we used okay six one one four no I'm wrong alright this resistor here is X supposed to be 24 and a half ohms and this one especially now whether it's enough to cause it create a problem I'm not sure but it is wrong so we'll have to fix that crap damn it I'm gonna check a couple of voltages there while I'm at it because I really wouldn't think that that would cause it to do the behavior it's doing right now I'm just feeling the board up fine if I can find the hot spots [Music] I'll check 3v3 is a since it's right here we should see it come to life for an instant and life it's trying to come up something's shorting it down it really does not feel like I mean yeah the BIOS resistant needs to be fixed but I feel like it's the cause so I think it's time to go through and start checking the where you call checking the rails sadly papa [Music] and the worst thing is I've even have any rails set up for this [Music] [Music] what sometimes I'm blind even demand stuff Wow sure to the other damn bro 8.50 that's pretty close to 8.6 so that's good they're just computing blah blah blah we're really looking for the higher ones at the ss3 you know actually they are doing on resistance bases so a shut off the power [Music] a bad mood all right rethread a cpu I don't think so not to be 3v3 s4 [Music] and so if it was up here one for three he's fine 3v3 sus we tested before we seem to be okay with that 3v3 s3 [Music] big resistant me of them see where you guys 24 so [Music] resisting me of them by us I know not but I ask you idiot three two [Music] [Music] from 6-9 [Music] but the microscope yeah I'll get around to it I did clean it last week I'm not sure what that's there are we things get dirty around here pretty quick when the bugs come out [Music] well nothing even on that one [Music] [Music] [Music] almost almost [Music] it'll be possible to beep out the flash lines what [Music] are you mean the flash lines my own one via five is one BFFs us [Music] so [Music] started on me a little bit insane one of the broken traces was data route yeah Alex I don't think I don't think it should be causing this issue though if anything is should just sit there and pretty much do nothing rather than what it's doing right now I mean I'll have another look at it but at the moment I'm not quite ready to blame went 1-1 105.1 one damn it I only have a delivered donor [Music] I've been over your dead CPUs over your loss you have to switch the homes that were going to test CPU no I have been 36 with time and besides they CPU for every drill more fine the way you bigger oh hello this could be trouble nope that kind of good well the other thing we can do at this point is we can actually try the heartbeat location method I don't know if it's gonna work or not but we can try it [Music] so you'll have to be on the lookout have a feeling it's not gonna be any success on this but we'll give it a whirl might start with the areas where that was corrosion so I really don't have high hopes this one because it just doesn't quite feel like it's one of those scenarios this may warm up the if this is what's blinking like that then that's it's not what the fault is you know I can see a pulse that's not the full it's pulsing but it's not the fault all right let's go in and change that damn resistor that foolishly thought was going to be a 15 but in fact was not [Music] instead it's a 24 and a half a 24-9 rather it's definitely a bit annoying but that's what you get it's getting late but I didn't sleep much lately as much as I want to sleep I don't sleep I guess they're only at 4:30 and I finally just involuntarily pass out not that I'm actually functional in terms of doing work so it's not like I can just stay up in yeah just do things because that doesn't work I'm tired I was can't sleep big difference good that's what catnaps our crew I wish that worked yeah now now we're a little blind here I'm also blind actually and barely see what I'm doing so I can drop some alcohol into there and clear it up so clear away some of the green give us some room to put our new one in it's a bit messy so now we need to find ourselves a 24.9 ohm resistor yeah three any of the MacBook Air boards should have that one of these up here will be it and this is a one six five bullet so have a look around well I'll have a look around [Music] looks like this middle one here by the clock chip is the one we want you know this could be all for nothing you're only getting about a 80 million pulse periodically we are getting all the way up to sa rail but then it shuts down get some flux down here I'll be very surprised with the dead CPU just doesn't feel like it if ya don't know what it feels like antennas bored around into a vertical orientation because it is easy to work on in this that way contrary to complaints from Rossman group that's a terrible joint I admit it but it's what began with well reflow make it look prettier it could be a bad bonus but Lex it's still a little unexpected anyway if this doesn't work what we'll do is we'll drop in a just a down about our neighbor Dana not for this board that's the problem at least I don't think I have I'll dig through my box of junk and have a look but I doubt it it's not as I can't get him it's just I just I rarely deal with these particularly in this model of mode same thing jumps up to about 190 100 and then drops back down of 2115 so we get five volt we get power but the USB one the middle one is indicating CPU activity and we're not getting that which isn't surprising let's see if I've got a donor don't have high hopes for well you never know Oh strewth it Dana board box is getting heavy now let's see what I'll go up in the trash pit ooh what are you what are you what are you what are you will you you thought he please please please please please be one jeez if this is a working gun they're not just choppin and run hey this is one it's gonna be easy for me to repair this than it is if this works the Amaze are just given the ball I think this is a someone this was accidentally sent to me however the screw the random screw that's not good oh I know what that screws for that's for the DC mode yeah mmm son of the gun didn't well I'm struggling with then spin this board works this will do the three cycle on-off on-off on-off thing because it's the same sort of concept as the 34:37 yeah there we go see we've got the green light in the middle there so we know that bringing is alive so we're actually a reference board here now I could give it to them but then I won't have a reference board anymore bloody hell and that's kind of cheating isn't it something just fell on the roof there Keith I'm gonna lend language because when the Chinese come over and take over Australia I want to be able to talk to them so that I won't get subjected to any horrors okay what I'll do I'll take the BIOS off this and then I'll read it into the system and then I will put it over here and see if this boots with that known working BIOS so here I'm about to damage a perfectly good board and it's clean - I've washed this board damn the things I do for money it's amazing with glasses on I can actually do this without using a microscope damn these boards hold heat Oh [Music] the reason why I'm gonna make a copy of this before I do anything is because if I butchered up at least I want to have a copy of it SWAT chippy you your MX 25l 6-4 and every single damn time I'll forget betrayers pin1 now kind of messed the time pretty much full speed I isolated 110 but 120 is perfectly normal but to say MX 2506 for Oh I was it what was the damn suffix on it not that it really matters I don't think it's a 6e 6e and it's a wide song so it's this one here yes I'll be reading that now maybe you start making flex for Samsung Kyle well if people I don't have to make that's the thing with flex board view is that it's not made for any particular brand or anything the point is if they were bored view files for in a industry standard format it should be able to read it that's the whole point that's why flex board view is different to say Zed XW or any of the others is that it's made so that it will read board view files regardless of whether the same song Hitachi oppo you know whatever so long as they're in the industry standard format it will work my hands are getting a bit gnarly in the gloves hole laughter they'll dry out enough oh I got some distilled water cool I'll use that dollars being read as many gloves hands a little bit dry a bit wet rather see every go [Applause] I'm gonna laugh if this does work [Music] that killed chat let's chat alive still I guess if chat was dead it wouldn't know a live very good number five is alive oh you're 34 37 you're down get out of here confusing this is gonna be sad to have to pull up all this good hard work so have a moment of now because of this day Tobias works we're still not out of the woods but I will have to reprogram a new one with the serial number and all that um what maybe we were talking about I haven't changed the I haven't done a damn thing to the system with the audio so I don't know what's up with that so nothing I've done number Five's about her krakozhia it's fun when you don't even know what you're saying on chat it was funny because I was watching Alex steal the other day and they're talking about short circuit as if it was some like amazing retro movie and I realize well it actually is I need to push that back down a fire truck two points to that worked out what I did wrong then that damn you don't know what I did wrong well too late now if you're gonna tell me because I've really fixed it look up some home this is why you shouldn't do board repairs after midnight or at least not me at the moment anyway this damn number ha ha it's almost a viable excuse No listen perk over the right place where does that go [Music] that should go the 3v3 sauce over here okay sorry guys okay but I guess with that pair that I do you should power it up and see what happens it'd be laughs if it's actually this some USB port that's at fault well it's not really that much of a laugh very funny if it was actually I'm opted because it's as real as that metal could be folding back on to the five BSO line but then we would have seen that in the measurements it's so confusing good holy it was actually the boss it's still not working properly though see it's a stuck in a permanent spin so we haven't really solved anything we've just traded one type of fall for another yeah it's doing the dreaded it's doing the dreaded long long thin spin shut down long thin spin shut down I've seen this before on 3437 boards I've never found a proper cause for you kind of had something life there but so tries doing something and then gives up what's going on it's not quite working Jason its kind of the equivalent of having the Apple logo stuck on your phone so it comes up Apple logo but nothing else that's basically what this is doing Jack said I have 34 37 s do this a lot now don't know what causes it oh man someone fried the Thunderbolt on this last version maybe now you're a cactus board anyway come on I think what I know man I don't want to sell my reference board maybe I should just throw this in the ultrasonic to be honest now what I'm curious about is maybe if I put that bias back on or better yet okay that's scary encircles more we'll take this bass here it's the same size we will flash it with the original bios that we got off the old the broken one and then we'll see we'll put it on to the board and see if it does the same sort of thing and now it's a lot of stuffing around but we're just sort of trying to eliminate things here so do we have was it just a bit of bad luck did it not originally sold it down properly or is it something to do with the actual code in the BIOS yeah down the rabbit hole our thumbs down is a pretty normal I have my dedicated thumbs down group they're not very big group so if you want to join them certain you can let them note just hit thumbs down twice and that signals to them like a bat signal that you want to become part of their group okay so we've got this bass chip off of 3437 and this will work because again it's a 64 it's the same time this poor bullets taken such a beating then this belongs to reference board you never the twain jate again a micro fix so we're loading this one up so we can flash it with the original BIOS code that we got off the board originally yeah and that eliminates the possibility that maybe you just didn't like the chip did that it's all wrong yep nice shonky sky soldering and good enough as some seriously funky sky soldering hey you use it you're out of here right okay and once again Paul forgets the orientation not much point putting a pin marker on this because it just comes off as soon as I use the solder on it again yeah there we go wait for it too right hey Stephen Kay we're gonna chat up here the UK indeed does not have Paul Daniels anymore well you kind of do but he's buried there so the Australian one I guess Paul Daniels got buried in the UK and came up down under we'll be what you that's what I do while I'm waiting for this to flash I will put that chip back on here the correct rally to multitasking except it's stuck on there yeah I'm gonna put some let it's all down because it's a working reference board not just a donor board I do actually wanted to work it's gonna suck if I put this back on stops working they'll be we're only just starting the verifying process now so I look a little more around on the board see if I can spot anything else so maybe I missed me if I can find out what's causing this bizarre long slow spin loop problem then there's a bunch of 3437 that I finally got a fix least you know the DC boards okay well and truly wasting my time on this one will not be getting my money's worth when I put in the invoice that's for sure could be SMC I guess but but then again I didn't think the bias change was going to change anything either Oh Gert it's finished I don't know about learning belly entertain maybe for everyone else watching but the learning to me I'm not sure I guess that's why I've been asked to find out the true cause and I guess that's what keeps me driving down the rabbit hole because I said if I can find out what's causing the slow long boot so long loops then it may actually be worth it man that's a big if what just that original pad that we only had the just little pin bowl on 3435 where did you go okay cording to the board in schematic this here should actually go over to there I think yeah over here on this that one the never doesn't we'll just run a while probably should have done that originally you know what's the point of doing things out that first we're good anyway yeah that top right pad I'm gonna round to it yet there are always hee pads when you got stuck on it hanging around the bad neighborhood and a little GU stuff on you we differ not sure of tenacity is the right behavior to have in these situations it's fine if you're doing refer a research but I'm not getting paid for research really man I really messed that up the jack-hammered now the moment I've been everything else in the queue which is kind of why I'm being bad to myself if there were other jobs in the queue most likely would have run by now I'm just testing that the lines are connecting properly where do you go to waitwhat see there we go No if this doesn't come through that I'm sorry I am gonna have to go to sleepy land you're not sure we can call it much more success but this who tried a few things it's all about the journey alright not when you broke at the end of it then spin it's a proper fan spin it's a proper fan spin come on come on give me some green bro you gave me green I hate using the word bro it works it's alive so he must have had a budgie connection there or we had they they just didn't like that bass trip that I had so yeah so he took it from another 34 37 and we're alive now alright it let's try the next step let's actually try and make it boot let's try and ruin our euphoria so that I can go to bed and feel really bad that I ruined of happy moment I'm too lazy to come where are you my darling cable what that's my cable yeah yeah they're too lazy to insert this properly all right there we go turn off the one saver and that's accessing the drive I can see it flashing and the screen looks like it is energized all black so rather going to come up with a blinking folder I hope yeah I mean I've never tried this cable on oops don't chew the camera cable it's still blinking man oh well we got a folder so I'm happy enough with that with my father go zere got a slow blink that is a very slow blink that makes me think about sensory issues temperature issue maybe now that is really slow that link last night that cable works on these screens as well okay that's put it in that is sloppy speaker so we can hear anything beeping SSD because it's faster keyboards up that clients up I'm probably missing something let's see if we good well jacquard and I've I'm not convinced that that's a good answer actually at this point it could be one of those things where it's a symptom for a wider range a wide range of faults kind of like missing PM sleep as well I think we just had a ball privacy filter no-nothing coming up Lu not epilogue oh yeah alright we do in fact you want to see that was it too dark come on so automatic I'm amazed that I can't there's a display there but it's just so dim so I get the brightness up yeah you can you can just see it yeah so we're working all right good enough for me what a mess okay so we needed a new boss the boss whole area was a train wreck there's possibly other issues we're gonna put it through the ultrasonic cleaner that may break some other things that's a bit of a long journey but we good at working so I think now it's time for me you get some damn sleep we'll pretend to sleep probably what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna have a shower have some ice cream go to my room bring up Stan or Netflix watch some trash like they'll probably watch Grey's Anatomy or something feels like a copy of scrubs but without the humor and without the without the completion of their storylines of many times and so you found out how to cure the patient and you don't know anything else it's not thanks not only at you as funny as scrubs you're also far more incomplete see I think I'll just leave that to tomorrow yep all right okay thank you very much for watching I'll see you next time hopefully wouldn't take as long next time because I definitely lost money in terms of time on this one you've been some you lose some obviously sort of won this one as easily
